Can someone please explain this to me.

I keep hearing that they do not want to sanction Putin`s personal accounts because then he would not be inclined to negotiate. Would he not negotiate to get his personal sanctions removed? It just makes me sad that the person causing this mess does not feel the pain of his actions and that his people will.

1. We did it. The US sanctioned Putin and Lavrov personally.

This means the United states is done with Putin. He is no longer a legitimate leader in our eyes.

2. He and Lavrov have been personally sanctioned as of yesterday.

3. They did sanction Putin... and Lavrov and some of the other high up in the Russian

but some of his most identifiable assets are in Russia (his unfinished super yacht left Germany for Russia weeks ago) or are in russian currency. We will see how good the banking system is at finding his "hidden" assets.

Putin is likely the world's richest person, possibly 2 or 3 times richer than Musk or Bezos.

4. Oh okay thank you. I missed that been trying to follow everthing that

is going on but some obligations get in the way.
