Sanctions aren't working, Russia's econ is better than before the invasion, EU is in the worst EconSit I can remember (I'm old) and the US is deteriorating. Even after the Nord Stream destruction RF is moving plenty of resources. Sanctions are just hurting common folk - east and west, not the Russian War Machine.

If sanctions aren’t working and Russias economy is better then before the invasion then why are they reporting a budget deficit?.

And why is there oil and gas revenue down 47% compared to 2022?.

didn't they recently find US made components in Russian military hardware? I suppose that's not 'fuelling Moscow's war on Ukraine' though

I don't understand why the west expect china to be under US jurisdiction

That's precisely why they formed the BRICS after all

"The US has abused its financial hegemony and technological clout and engaged in economic coercion in the name of protecting national security. The US has enacted some domestic laws, such as the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, the Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act and the Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act, and issued a series of executive orders to target and sanction specific countries, entities or individuals. The ambiguous rules contained in these acts and executive orders, such as the “minimum contacts principle” and “doctrine of effects”, are a willful expansion of the jurisdiction of US domestic laws. The US also abuses its domestic channels of prosecution to exercise long-arm jurisdiction over entities and individuals in other countries."
