Based on the fact that Russia is absolutely “pounding” Ukraine on the battlefield right now, I am strongly considering large scale Banking Sanctions, Sanctions, and Tariffs on Russia until a Cease Fire and FINAL SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT ON PEACE IS REACHED. To Russia and Ukraine, get to the table right now, before it is too late. Thank you!!!

Putin, thinking about the tariffs against Mexico and Canada...

Ukraine is massively disadvantaged without US aid. Russia is empowered while Ukraine go at it without the US. If one is to be sanctioned the other should too.

Reason: Without correction

Why should Ukraine be sanctioned for doing nothing more than defending itself?
On another note Musk's AI Grock was asked the folliwing.
"Can Ukraine be blamed as "gambling with world war 3" or Russia?"
The answer.
"Ukraine's actions are defensive, responding to Russia's unprovoked invasion in 2014 and full-scale assault in 2022. Russia’s escalation, including nuclear threats and attacks on civilians, heightens global risks, not Ukraine’s defense or NATO support."
Or it’s just pooling from whatever English language propaganda has been fed into it. Give it a few years when the history of the period is written and enough material calls it a US proxy war and it might give results with wider context.
I agree tho there’s little value sanctioning Ukraine - it’s all American and European money anyway. The way to force Ukraine to the table is to cut off the logistical support as America have done and test whatever capability or appetite remains to fight. An important lesson for future short term allies to the American cause however hopefully a brief and not too costly one.
