U.S. President Joe Biden announced new sanctions against Russia on Thursday hours after Russian President Vladimir Putin launched a military invasion of Ukraine, targeting four more Russian banks including its second largest, VTB.
Biden said the sanctions would target trillions in assets and also include the sanctioning of more Russian elites.
“Some of the most powerful impacts our actions will come over time as we squeeze Russia’s assets to finance and technology for strategic sectors of its economy and degrade its industrial capacity for years to come,” Biden said.
The president added that the actions by both the U.S. and its allies, they estimate they will cut off more than half of Russia’s high-tech imports. He said it would “strike a blow” at the nation’s ability to continue to modernize its military.
He also announced he had authorized the deployment of troops already in Europe to bolster the defence of eastern NATO allies including Poland and Latvia.
The actions come after Putin defied international pressure and launched the wide-ranging attack on Ukraine early Thursday, telling the West not to intervene in what appeared to be the beginning of a new conflict in Europe.

Russia is gonna have to face the fact that everone, (icluding russians ) fukin hate communism. Only exploiters would want draconian rule, do the math russia, your people fking HATE YOUR GUTS!
Yeh! And our re-employed ex iraq observers have undeniable proof that russia has weapons of mass destruction……somewhere🤔
America little bit a doubt to war with russian,so they play just with sanction,but if small country like north korea or palestine they like a tiger,
Your concerns, your sanctions, your speech, doesn’t hurt Putin. After Ukraine fall USA and NATO have mean nothing to the democracy. You stay home and speech just like a crazy dog bark. Never see sanctions work for anyone. Your sanctions never work for Kim Jong un anymore
if u want to help someone, them help. otherwise just shut up
The end of the neoliberal age. It is now I Multi-Polar dynamic in global polotics

The US and Europe are fallen into a trap of China it deliberately puts Russia in a confrontation with the US and Europe in the case of Ukraine. In fact, China is behind all. China is the true enemy of the world. China is too greedy and cruel. For long, Chinese secret intelligence have made attempts to convince U.S and European leaders that Russia is their dangerous enemy. Then, China try to make Russia think that the U.S and EU plan to completely destroy Russia.
China can kill two birds with one stone once the U.S and Russia fight each other. China will then rise to become the world’s suzerain .
Biden will try to squeeze Russian Economy from his bed only..
Biden is clueless and weak sanctions are useless.
Just so u know this comment section is filled with Americans accepting defeat

And corporate media waits not a moment to shill for criminal Biden’s involvement in this conflict. Gotta pay the piper for that $1M a year Ukraine pays your crackhead son eh, Brandon?
Yeah.. yeah America. We know what you have done in Afghanistan. War against Russia is better than trusting America who always betrays its allies👍👍
Sleepy Biden
Liar and war criminal Putin and his henchmen should be taken to trial. All free world should immediately expel all Russian diplomats. And Russia deserves blackout.
There have been made too many compromises already, too many retreats. They seized Crimea, they took sovereign soil and Ukraine and west world fall back. They now invade openly and world fall back? Not again. The line must be drawn here. This far, no further.
Now it is straight 1939. Fascist kleptocracy in Kremlin is now attacking free world. War is already unleashed by Putler. Even the blind now can see that Kremlin government si pure evil. To hold back sanctions was foolish. To hold back is foolish. It is time to destroy Russian economy by severe sanctions and let moscow strongmen eventually choose a new less psychotic tsar.
"Let not any one pacify his conscience by the delusion that he can do no harm if he takes no part, and forms no opinion. Bad men need nothing more to compass their ends, than that good men should look on and do nothing. He is not a good man who, without a protest, allows wrong to be committed in his name, and with the means which he helps to supply, because he will not trouble himself to use his mind on the subject." – John Stuart Mill, 1867
"Appeasement policy, the policy of appeasing Hitler and Mussolini, operating jointly at that time, during 1937 and 1938 by continuous concessions granted in the hope of reaching a point of saturation when the dictators would be willing to accede to international collaboration. … It came to an end when Hitler seized Czechoslovakia on March 15, 1939, in defiance of his promises given at Munich, and Prime Minister Chamberlain, who had championed appeasement before, decided on a policy of resistance to further German aggression."
– Walter Theimer (ed.), The Penguin Political Dictionary, 1939…

HOW THE WEST LIES: Fair-Minded, Mind's – Taken over By TRYINY: America is so Clearly Scared of Russia, and China together. That's why they Refused a Peace Agreement, to Start a War.!! Using NATO to weaken & destroy Russia!! By media hate lies 24-7 . FACT –
America killed a Million People in Iraq, alone, with Carpet bombing. Started by lies, of fake Poison which never existed.!! Not a Word Said, about the Slaughter? Miles of destroyed Armour, dead bodies. Attacked with A10, Tank killers, & Apache, Gunships, & you watched This on TV and live Video.!! Remember, be careful, of – Another False Flag US War.
US HYPOCRITICAL LIERS. The Media Covered It all Up Never mentioned US War after War. Biden Abandoned Afghanistan, & Americans, left to die. Like it never happened.!! He will do the same with Europe, after he starts a World War. Europe will be destroyed. Don't be fooled: Media Propaganda, This is just the Start of a World War. Biden is evil.
LEARN FROM HISTORY.
Russia was still at the Peace Table begging them to Honour existing signed Agreements! While Europe "had already decided to go to War with Russia".
Sending Arms to Ukraine, & for over a Month, is not a Sign of Peace, is it?
Shame on you that forced this War on us.
Hunter just needs to give back the money to Ukraine. Something fishy going on here that people aren't talking about
Me: Mr. Put…
Putin: Whaat?
Me: Joe…Joooe…JOOEEEE!!!
Mr Biden: 😴 💤 😴 💤 hm?
