    If you want to make a difference sanction China for enablingithe war by shipping so many parts. Russia can’t be hurt much more at this point and they don’t care. China is supporting Russia and would care about sanctions-

      I don’t want to disagree, but sanctioning China will likely have serious long term consequences for the west. Also will only be effective if it is both EU as a whole + US. Would be the right thing to do I guess, but will not be pretty.

        The us plus eu is best but the eu alone is a powerful block. There are long term consequeces, but china has been doing plenty that should concern everyone anyway.
