      No they can’t Russia is sanctioned, and can actually only sell to about a handful of countries that do not respect the sanctions.

        Which is why the global south is moving in another direction away from a white western dominated system where sanctions can be applied at the whims of people representing less than 20% of the world’s population.

        “handful of countries” = 25% of all countries and increasing literally semi-yearly at this rate. BRICS is growing while the western block and it’s economic warfare system is shrinking. The west doesn’t produce anything, it is a resource sink for money, they no longer have an ability to sanction anything.
