Putin only got stronger and bolder after the mild and ineffectual international response to the annexation of Crimea. So you are basally saying, if the West does nothing, Putin gets stronger, if the West strike back against Russia, Putin also gets stronger. So what do you suggest could possibly work?

Most sanctions make sense to me.

If I say, "this animal looks cute but it might bite", then, I'm not saying that all animals will bite you.

One sanction seems maybe-bad. But I'm not saying all sanctions are bad. On the contrary, most are good I think, eg SWIFT.

I want more sanctions: stop the gas.
