  1. Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Greenland, Iceland, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, columbia, and Guyana. It's a lot more then just America and eroup. China also imposed banking restrictions with Russia, lowered their projected investments in the hydrocarbon market, and pulled huwaii out of Russia.

  2.  @NTraveller  foreigners can't trade, there's a limit on Russians trading rubles to other currency. Foreigns stocks are frozen and can't be sold. Putin is spending foreign cash to buy rubles and prop the exchange up. He's offered huge interest rates to Russians who keep their money in the bank. All while exports shrink and imports take a nose dive. The ruble is a sham.

  3.  @diakonhexxen6505  Colombia joined sanctions and sent lethal aid to ukraine. Russia couldn't buy from Colombia even if they wanted to.

  4.  @bojanm986  just wait till winter when they actually start to really show. Planes grounded, high speed passenger rails closing. New russian cars don't have air bags, ABS, power steering, seat belt pretentioners, GPS, or a radio. Mac and Windows are sanctioned and many parts manufacturers like Intel, AMD, and Nvidia have also said they won't sell to Russia. A computer and technology shortage won't be apparent over night. It's going to seriously slow growth though.

  6.  @NTraveller  with the high exchange Russia can't export as much and they can't take advantage of increasing imports due to sanctions. A smarter move would be to keep it a little lower. There's a reason countries like China and Canada deliberately devalue their currency. It benefits a export economy. Ruble should be around 1/85.

  7.  @joexavier4070  Colombia, Argentina and Chile released a joint statement that they would follow all sanctions on Russia approved by the US state department 🏬.

  9.  @bojanm986  not forced, Hungary was one of the top 10 contributers of lethal aid to ukraine by percentage of GDP. They did however want concessions if they were to give up Russian crude oil. EU made investments and when Hungary was finally happy with the concessions they sanctioned Russian crude.

  11. Blame Russia for starting a war of expansion. Terrorists don't get to use the international banking system.

  12. It's like a terrorist complaining the bank froze their account. Putin is a terrorist he has no right to use the international banking system to fund his terror.
