Why does everyone have to suffer from what happens in your backyard?

Nobody has to suffer, it's just that the sanctions don't work as intended and need to be lifted. Find other ways to help Ukr, don't f*k EU over.

Sanctions do work, albeit not as well as everyone hoped.

I don't think they should be lifted until Russia reforms. Not even when the war is over, unless accompanied with a regime change that takes serious steps to undo the imperialism.

I think it's completely reasonable to expect Russia to get the same treatment as Iran and North Korea.
