If Putin does not come to Istanbul: 5 painful points

If Putin does not come to Istanbul - and most likely, it will be - Russia should be squeezed so that it will finally feel the pain of war, the politician Yaroslav Yurchyshyn insists. He calls 5 Kremlin pain points, which we need to beat first and, as we understand, he is unlikely to go there and Russian pocket leaders of thoughts have already come up with a bunch of reasons why. From the "illegitimacy" of Zelensky to some kind of approach in conversation with Russia.

Then a new sanction package is waiting for the Kremlin. And if it is a 17th package and Russia has not yet been finally, there is a question of the effectiveness of such sanctions. According to preliminary information, new restrictions can touch: well, a "powerful power". Something does not believe that after that Russia feels the pain of this war. At the same time, they still remain not that the place, but the whole industries where you need to beat.

I suggest EU representatives where the effect will be noticeable: after all, you need to monitor the fulfillment of these restrictions more carefully. After all, Ukrainian journalists have repeatedly demonstrated how the sub -Russian vessels stop in the ports of Europe bypassing sanctions. Now is not the time of fake ultimatum. Europeans can and should drive Putin into a dead end and show the effectiveness of the sanction mechanism.
