Russia’s terrible war crimes in Buchy and other liberated towns and villages are horrifying. But February is gone. There is only the determination to hold these animals accountable and hurt them – moral, physical and economic.

As for the last, the sanction skateboard will continue to roll the Russian economy into the asphalt.

My partners and I are working on two tasks: closing for Russia the ways of bypassing valid sanctions and organizing new packages of strict sanctions.

A fifth EU sanctions package will be introduced soon, which will eliminate gaps and slopes to avoid sanctions. Essentially, four powerful blows were caused by the Russian economy, which forced Moscow to urgently look for ways to leave. The fifth blow will be applied exactly on those slopes and bypasses on which they turned.

International sanctions have already specifically blown up a number of sectors of the Russian military and industrial complex. Without imported components and technologies, Russians have already faced problems with electronics, chips, some sniper rifles, some missile-artillery and tariffs. We will actively develop success in this direction.

Of course, the sacred sanctioned trinity, which will finally stop the war machine of Russia – is:

• rejection of Russian oil, gas and coal;
• closure of world ports for Russian ships and goods;
• disconnecting all Russian banks from SWIFT.

We are having intense negotiations on all these directions and bringing good news closer.

In parallel, international business is collapsing interaction with Russia or leaving Russia. And those who don’t come out – those are actively stimulating. Even with the harsh methods. During the war, diplomacy is not always diplomatic. All that matters is the result. Here’s the pre-season:

Wizz Air cancels all flights to and from Russia until at least October 30;

The Finnish manufacturer of forestry technology Ponsse PLC left Russia and Belarus;

Danish manufacturer of thermal automation, refrigeration and driving equipment Danfoss announced the exit;

American Amsted Rail Company closes its office in Moscow and rolls out the production of bearings in Saratov;

Disney has completely stopped filming in Russian cinemas since April 7;

Production at the plant psma rus in kaluzí, where collect Peugeot, Citroen, Opel will stop due to the lack of accessories;

AirCap leasing contractor filed a lawsuit of $3.5 billion for more than 100 of its aircraft that remained in Russia. And be sure to win this case;

Christie’s auction banned participating in the auction to clients from Russia and Belarus;

The international rating agency Moody’s Investors Service has approved the decision to revoke all its ratings of Russia and Russian regions. By the way, in parallel the Russians are running around the world and trying to bribe to restore lost ratings of Russian energy sector companies, because respected rating agencies deprived them of ratings, without which business is much harder to do, and often a relationship the gala is impossible.

Everyone in this war has to do their own to win. We will be step by step diplomacy, but undiplomatically conquer Russia for every Ukrainian tear, drop of blood and every pain.
