Turkey’s inflation soars to 73%, a 23-year high, as food and energy costs rise

Nowhere near the same volume. Not the least because the infrastructure to transport this oil in volume aren’t there.

I don’t think sanctions will make Russia stop the war, the only thing that will is a large enough flow of dead soldiers coming back home. But it will impact its ability to finance this war, its military capabilities (replace hardware), and potentially (though not clear to me), create opinion backlash in Russia.

Price per barrel is lower if it isn't going to Europe too - EU was the whale customer.

I wouldn't want to see full-mobilisation after Russia ran out of active soldiers.

Nobody should want war, war is hell for all who see it up close, even when it’s the only way to keep your friends and family safe from a greater horror; yet from this far away, the only thing I fear is that Russian nukes might not be as badly maintained as their tanks.

Yes. I meant to say that I don't see right now how Russia will stop the war, even if it is depleted of active soldiers and other things.
