Let's just throw it at them

It's funny. When two nations restrict trade between themselves, the only people it hurts are the people.

Economic sanctions have never done anything except increase the power of dictators.  See also: cuba, north korea, iraq

i wouldnt be surprised if there was another world war 3 with all the dictatorish countries (russian, cuba, nk) fighting the good guys

I don't think the common interest of dictatorship necessarily would pull these guys together.

Putin is really something..

here's a BBC article and a mail.ru article for you and other russkie forumers. basically nobody's thrilled by the situation

Wait you are from Russia?

cept putin isnt a dictator. hes a democratically elected leader.

hes (and russia) are far less a fascist or a communist then even we are.

and sanctions wont hurt russia like they do all the stuffty little 3rd world nations we pick on. hes got other super powers that he hooks up with. they dont even need the US or EU. in fact we lose out since stuffloads of our food come from russia. stuffLOADS of it.

We're stuck with this guy until 2018 :|

There's a LOT of political debate, confusion and downright lies about every country involved with the Ukrainian conflict.
Russian Goverment banned the imports from US and EU because both countries have issued sanctions on Russia. And I can tell you that Russia may even benefit from it, though.

I live in this country, and whenever fruits and vegetables are deemed "imported" we avoid them like plague.
I mean seriously, when carrots look perfectly clean and have the same size as every other carrot in the box it gets very suspicious.

in fact we lose out since stuffloads of our food come from russia. stuffLOADS of it.

The title literally says imports, not exports.
