1. How many years have we had sanctions on N. Korea and Cuba?

[ColinC]

2. They haven't invaded anybody so they must work! Right?

Right? Rigggghhhht?

4. Well N. Korea is still there shooting off missiles and building nukes. Seems like

all we have accomplished is starving the people, the dictators are still there.

3. Russia won't leave of their own volition - Ukraine will have to force them out.

But the more damage sanctions cause to Russia's economy, they less resources they'll have to toss at the war effort.

Start hitting their primary exports, which have so far been excluded from sanctions, and their economy will crumble.

5. I voted something else.

Sanctions will be involved but won't force Putin directly The sanctions will turn other Russians against Putin and they will eliminate him one way or another.

[SoonerPride]

6. They will only leave when the pain of occupation is too great

Or Putin dies

Whichever comes first.

[Straw Man]

7. Well, they were in Afghanistan for 10 years ...

... so I wouldn't expect them to leave any time soon.

8. I believe sanctions will part of the reason, but not the reason in and of itself. nt

[Fiendish Thingy]

9. They will leave because of sanctions, protests in Russia, and casualties combined. Nt

[ColinC]

10. I think you might be right, but crashing the ruble by 90% is shockingly

Bad.
