Articles like this confuse me. War takes a toll on economies. For Russia, it’s literally the cost of doing business. For Russia, this was a choice. For Ukraine this is an invasion and survival is the focus. The people will do what they must to survive and when the war ends, they will rebuild (we hope). And then there is the truckloads of money being mad arming the combatants. Not new. Gotta be done…. But, wow.

Yes, the but the point of this article is that sanctions a finally taking a toll on Russia’s economy. Which will both hinder Russia’s ability to wage war and sow domestic descent. War always takes a toll but sanctions are making the toll greater than it would be otherwise.
