Kremlin Gets New Sanctions


    President Joe Biden announced new sanctions against the Rus this week.  He added that he has suggested a July meeting to discuss recent covert /cyber operations that have been directed against United States' institutions.   One of the first sanctions was directed to the diplomatic service: 10 Rus diplomats were ordered out of the US.   This will be followed by naming certain individuals held responsible for  targeting US government operations with hacks.  Then the next sanctions were established to increase economic pressure on the Kremlin.  US institutions were banned from buying Russyan bond debt.  This is most significant and will spread throughout the West and have a huge impact on Russya' ability to finance everything by being shut off from the band market.

      Oh, Russya says they will certainly resspond in kind.  What a laugh!  The Dictator knows there's a new man in the White House and he's not looking to make friends like the Trumpster, now in Florida.   Joe actually listens to his advisors.   This does not bode well for the Kremlin.  Oh, you want to do some saber rattling down south near Sochi?  or Don Bass?  or Crimea?  Little Green Men on the move?  Hmmm.  Get ready for more sanctions.   Who you gonna call?  Mr. Xi?  Ha.  Good luck.
