Europe depends on Russian energy to keep the heat on in winter.

US refineries have replaced sanctioned Venezuelan oil with a Russian type bumping them up to a very respectable 10% of oil imports.

The US is also responsible for its own security, not the other way around.

Nothing but political will prevent US to allow Venezuelan oil back. Also, Iranian oil. Both have similar composition to Russian Urals brand.

If you sanction all around, there will be rebound. Sitting there alone, all the sanctioned sing loudly, AHARRRHARRHARR! Rot on your throne, proudly.
