Who stops them? Ideally we'd do this without starting WW3.

ideally we can stop hitler without starting wwwii. just give him a bit more of Czechoslovakia bro, this time its enough, bro. i promise.

If only we had spent billions for decades of fighting in Czechoslovakia. Fair point.

if only france and spain had decided to be neutral in the us war of independence we wouldnt be here hearing your navel gazing opinion.

There's been quite a lot done already through sanctions eg:

>Tankers carrying Russian oil stuck idling off Chinese coast after new U.S. sanctions https://meduza.io/en/news/2025/01/13/russian-oil-tankers-stu...

>UK sanctions 30 shadow tankers in largest clampdown on Russian oil trade https://www.spglobal.com/commodity-insights/en/news-research...

I guess that may all go wrong if Trump drops all sanctions but at the moment it's making things difficult.
