In Economics Russia will continue to play softball for a very simple reason, they have to offer an attractive alternative to the USA and EU to the rest of BRICKS, Islamic Nations, Africa and Southwest Asia and Southeast Asia. They can do this by proving to be far more trustworthy and predictable that the capricious USA and EU. They also need to offer either balanced trade for Ruble or payment in Euros or other easily traded currency and hence are trying to avoid a scorched earth economic war. Autarchy is not in Russia’s best interest if it wants partners. Destroying an important Market for China, India, and SE Asia in the EU won’t gain bonus points. If the USD becomes less attractive, then they still need a functioning Euro for where the Ruble won’t work.
Therefore, any sanctions they deploy will have to be seen through that lens, i.e.: they will never break a contract, will do their best to keep a contract functioning even in the face of the most onerous sanctions, and any countersanctions they do will be tightly targeted and seen as fully justified.

Hi Vlad, Head up, we are launching ICBM's at China which have to cross over the space above Russia, but trust us, they are all going to China. Wait, don't interupt me, you'll love this. It will be the 3rd time, with a vengeance, the USA nuked Japan, and talk about outsourcing, we're using Chinese nukes. Vlad... Hello, Vlad...

Springtime for Freeland / Sung to “Springtime For Hitler” (Mel Brooks)
Canada was having trouble, what a bad, bad story
That blackface Treudeo broke its former glory
Where, Oh where was he? But what if he could be a she?
We looked around and then we found
The woman for you and me
And now it's..
Springtime for Freeland and Zelenskyy
Galicia is happy and gay
We're going woke to a faster pace
Look out, here is the PMC Safe Space
Springtime for Biden and Zelenskyy
Winter for Putin and Xi
Springtime for Hunter and Panama
Come on, Bankers, go into your dance
I was born in Ottawa, and that is why they call me Woke
Don't be stupid, be a smarty, come and join the money party
Springtime for Biden and Banderites
Goosestep's the new step today
Bombs falling from the skies again
MIC Stock is on the rise again
Springtime For Chrystia and Banderites
Weapons are flying out the door
Springtime for Pelosi and AOC
C-17 s are flying once more
Counting MIC cash is never a bore
and we can sing more, more, more

As long as German, French, Swedish, and other political leaders are willing to sell out the best interest of their countries in return for personally profitable board seats, NGO chairs, paid advisories, etc. etc., then the citizens of their countries will be sold down the stream. This is just as every, no exception, every US general who "served" over US War against Afghanistan has profited from a well paid corporate position secured with the treasury, and often enough, blood, life, and limb of Americans they supposedly served, not to mentioned what they have done to Afghan people for their own profit. Merkel herself just returned from a fishing expedition for her own reward in Washington, don't expect her to spank Lithuania and endanger her own profit.

Macron: The continual challenge has been to somehow translate Europe’s wealth and size into international political influence. The story goes back to the days of European Political Cooperation in the 1970s, but although ambitions have expanded greatly since Maastricht, it’s even more difficult now than it was then, simply because of the number and variety of member states and the variety of their different interests. There have been marginal improvements, like the External Action Service, but no matter how good your procedures, if you don’t have underlying political agreement, you’re largely wasting your time. And because foreign policy is something that member states have kept as a national competence, it has to be funded separately on an ad hoc basis. Thus the paradox that the nations have the responsibility but not the money, whereas the Commission has the money but not the responsibility.
It’s even worse in the area of security, where thirty years of trying to build structures and forces haven’t produced very much, because most member states are simply not interested, and have let their armed forces decay almost to nothing. France is the only serious EU military power now (ironically, the other one was the UK).

An extravagant court, a corrupt government, (prison) and wage slavery, class selfishness, these were some of the principal causes of USA’s decline; but in recording them it must be remembered that the taint was only gradual, like some corroding acid eating away good metal. Not all PMC, in spite of popular assertions, were robbers, not every taxpayer on the verge of starvation, not every dependant of a ‘villa’ cowed and miserable. In many houses masters would free or help their wage slaves, wage slaves be found ready to die for their masters. The canker lay in the indifference of individual citizens to evils that did not touch them personally, in the refusal to cure with radical reform even those that did, in the foolish confidence of the majority in the glory of the past as a safeguard for the present. ‘Faith in USA killed all faith in a wider future for humanity.’
This lack of vision has ruined many an empire and kingdom, and USA only half-opened her eyes even when the despised barbarians who were to expose her weakness were already knocking at the imperial gates.
