Probably too early to say, but looks like we are moving towards a total isolation of Russia from the int’l community. This will take Russia back decades. The blame can be put on Vladimir Putin and his regime. A sad predicament for Russian people. Did not have to be this way.

Putin didn't count on this. Europe's largest economy will abruptly increase its annual defense spending *above* the #NATO target of 2%/GDP.
"What needs to be done to keep the peace will be done," German Chancellor Olaf Scholz tells parliament, "and Germany will do its bit."
