Topic: What economic sanctions will US impose on Russia - page 3. (Read 674 times)

Now that Russia has invaded Ukraine, things are going to get worse.

The United States, Europe and other countries have already imposed serious economic sanctions against the Putin regime and against Russia in general. Including Russia was forbidden to make payments in dollars, euros, yen, pounds. The banking system will largely be paralyzed without being disconnected from SWIFT, although this possibility is still under discussion. So far, such a shutdown is opposed by Germany, Hungary, Italy and Cyprus.
In addition, it is predicted that by the time Russia sets up its internal payment system, it will already be bankrupt.
Now there is information that China refuses to buy oil from Russia because of the uncertainty with payments and delivery of oil. In connection with the adopted sanctions, this also awaits Russia for all other goods. Gas and oil, on the contrary, may fall in price.

Russia will probably build its own financial system independent of SWIFT. As long as it has its own reserves of Gold and other scarce commodities/assets, sanctions will have little to no impact over the Russian economy. By stripping Russia out of the SWIFT system, the USD will continue to lose traction as the world's reserve currency. I have a feeling countries will begin to separate themselves from the US Dollar slowly as time goes by. All of these actions will directly affect the American economy in ways that were never imagined before.

Now that Russia has invaded Ukraine, things are going to get worse. Oil prices will rise, leading to a huge blow over the global economy. Russia is one of the major producers of oil, so it doesn't have to worry about this. Who knows what will happen in the next days with rising tensions between the West and Russia? Just my opinion

Why do you think that the USSR fell? Do you think that they woke up one morning and decided that, after all these decades and millions of dead communism was not such a great idea after all? My answer is no, the USSR fell due to the mismanagement of the economy and the strangling of the production of energy and basic goods.

Economy is not as spectacular as dropping bombs and invading with tanks, but make not mistake, it is a tool that can be as lethal as a gun.

They will kick them out of SWIFT and stop there probably. The thing is the US can't do more. Biden already said that they are not going to send troops to Ukraine to fight Russia if Russia invades Ukraine.

You can't do much against a nuclear force as long as they don't threaten you directly. Getting kicked out of SWIFT would benefit Russia more in the end ironically because the USD will lose another customer.

Maybe the sanction given to other country is not heavy because they why can they still live normally? is USA that powerful enough? Because, why can they give such sanction to every country but I don't think that USA can make Russia poor. It is not easy as that because Russian country is large and this country is also a well developed country.

If it is about bank problems, they can use bitcoin for a while. Bitcoin has no restriction and they are free to use it for sending and receiving money but I really think they shouldn't sanction Russia if they will evade the attack but rather they should sanction Ukraine because they are the ones that want the war to continue as they keep on attacking.

The US authority is collecting a list of measures, this is what we can define it sanction to impose and a normal procedure to force and an ordinary methodology to prevent Russia from attacking Ukraine. I doubt Putin will care, if he is determined to invade. He won't care about bloodshed nor any financial difficulties. I think invasion isn't well for any country. Putin should avoid any fight. We should stand up, stop all this pointless sanctions, and start normal dialogue more preferred choice over militarization.

It's sad to see how the behavior of developed countries is changing. War to punish poverty riots is not the way to create a better world. I don't support what the US and the west are doing, but seeing as many problems have existed after many wars, perhaps the beneficiaries we don't know will continue to manipulate everything. What the US did before through economic sanctions only created more hatred, and we are just small people who want the operators to have a peaceful solution. I put my faith in God, as well as love the Buddha, and look at it to build a good life.

There are already many countries and people under sanctions by the USA and they are still living their lives without any problem so I don't think the sanctions by the USA is going to make Russia a poor country but this will definitely affect the situation in this country, about the economic sanctions as far sd I know about it there can be different levels of economic sanctions, they just suspend any financial deal between their bank and Russian banks, in this case, you may have problems while transferring your money to/from the USA from Russia and in some other cases they may suspend only transactions by the government and in this case, the government may have a problem while selling oil or their other products, however regardless of all these if they chose to use bitcoin they can bypass all these economic sanctions.

Above all the points that you have mentioned, I was thinking if Russia is alone in all of this but I know Russia was the leader of the USSR (Soviet Union) that existed around 1922-1991. Some of these countries and more will be aligns to Russia and they are still world powers. I also did this finding if they have friends below, China being one of the friends might just be waiting for a opportunity to do attacking against US



Russia enemies and friends

Kamala Harris (US Vice President) making some statement on the Russia and Ukraine problem said US and her aligns will impose unprecedented economic sanction on Russia if they continue to evade or attack Ukraine. So I'm wondering what kind of unprecedented economic sanction can be given to Russia if they continue to evade Ukraine.

You are forgetting that China is staying away from this war for now because of a reason. If they wanted to get involved then they would have already sent some help to Russia to show their help. However lets assume that they are not right now but they will in case of a sanction, even in that situation do you really think that China would get away with it, without a problem?

Obviously they are going to end up with a big problem because China sells all of the cheap manufactured things to nations with money, all those items are going to Europe and the USA, which means if you remove ALL of Europe and USA from Chinese companies then they won't make enough money and as a nation with 1+ billion people, they really need to handle all of this in order to continue living, even a small problem would equal to another 20+ million people dead famine as well.

You forget about the Russian "big brother" - CHINA. The fate of Russia, in fact, depends on the position of China. And if now China decides that it needs Russia, but as a donor of resources or territories, then tomorrow Russia will cease to exist and become a new region of the PRC. Stories about a "strong economy" and the same fabulous "strongest army" of Russia are a myth. The only real threat from the Russian Federation is the remnants of nuclear weapons, everything else is "wearing the clothes of the deceased grandfather", i.e. the USSR
