It's just wishful thinking from US politicians again.
What absolute faggotry.

And what penalties can the US even impose?
Secondary sanctions on trade partners who not only have called the bluff already, but also have no alternatives to buying oil and gas from Russia?
Or are they sanctiooning Russia harder?
It's worth remembering, the west has up to now sold Russia things that are a convenience while Russia has sold the west things they need to survive.

The TLDR of it is: the US is holding an empty gun to the head of India and China while also threatening to shoot themselves in the foot (this time with a loaded gun) if Russia doesn't bend the knee. Literally the worst evil villain strategy ever concocted and pretty much how a bipolar woman acts. I enjoy the shitshow, even though the mutts will squeeze Europe dry to save themselves from their idiocy.
