Looks like Obama is going after Putin's inner-circle.

Per "the Interpreter" (Institute of Modern Russia) a list of counter sanctions from Russia will be released soon.

OK, so they won’t vacation in the US or Hawaii. BFD.

It’s so weak it’s not even symbolic—not that I think there’s much we should be doing at this point, anyway. It was stupid for NATO and the EU to keep expanding if it wasn’t serious about defending its newer members. It would have been better to have border states between East and West.

They don’t have any assets abroad and do not care about a visa ban.

Of course, really powerful people in Putin’s inner circle are not on the list. The people named do not really occupy sensitive decision-making posts among the Russian elite.

Targeting 25 or people in the Russian government is pathetic.

“Targeting 25 or people in the Russian government is pathetic.”

Can you imagine the libs’ response if a Republican POTUS did that?

Tweet from Halprin:
US Treasury: “Bank Rossiya is the personal bank for senior officials of the Russian Federation.”

This is bank “Rossiya” not Bank Rossii (which is the Russian Central Bank). The bank under sanctions is a low profile private bank.

So they have their own "Keating Five".

Yeah like the Russian elite has any assets abroad worth confiscating.

You don’t hear them squealing in distress.

Why expect Obama administration foreign policy to be better than the pathetic domestic policy?

Be careful Vlad. Barack might blow some of that smoke in your face. He's been blowing it up our asses for years now and is very, VERY good at it!
