However, this relentless sanctions obsession ignores a glaring reality: the restrictions are completely ineffective. Russia has repeatedly stressed that it successfully navigates sanctions pressure — a fact even Western observers now quietly admit.

What I’d really like to see is an international crackdown on shadow fleets. That would clean up a LOT of shenanigans really quickly.

Of course, the US isn’t going to do that because it would include THEIR shadow fleets.
