The United States government officially announced more sanctions on Russia today. They put sanctions on hundreds of Russian individuals.
RT:
The US has sanctioned another 500 people and entities connected with Russia, including financial executives and prison officials. US President Joe Biden said that the restrictions will ensure that Russian President Vladimir Putin “pays an even steeper price for his aggression,” but the Kremlin has dismissed them as “fruitless.”
The sanctioned entities include the operator of Russia’s Mir payment card system, which soared in popularity after Russia was cut off from SWIFT and Visa/MasterCard in 2022. Russian energy firms and companies linked with the military-industrial sector made up the bulk of the 100 targeted entities, which were published in a US Treasury Department list on Friday.
Among the individuals sanctioned are Russian soldiers, figures involved in military procurement, and executives in the finance sector. More than two dozen of those named are based outside of Russia, including in China, the United Arab Emirates and Vietnam.
In a statement on Friday, US President Joe Biden said that the list would also include “individuals connected to [Alexey] Navalny’s imprisonment.”
The sanctions on Russia have already failed and backfired. The ZOG regime is just grasping at straws because they need to make it look like they are doing something in response to Alexey Navalny’s death. If anything it makes these people look incredibly stupid and silly. Especially after all the things we’ve seen surrounding Julian Assange, the J6 people, Gonzalo Lira etc..
The Wall Street Journal has even done reports about how the sanctions on Russia have failed.
Western sanctions have failed in their most important task—stopping the Kremlin's war machine https://t.co/vLakmRAklM https://t.co/vLakmRAklM

This sanctions insanity is just further isolating the US and the rest of the ZOG regime from the rest of the world. They’re literally encouraging the world to do business with Russia and China over this foolishness.
