The appendix is not removed in stages. But, for some reason, this is the way they impose sanctions

If you are still wondering why the Russian fascist regime still has the money to continue a full-scale war, just remember the discussions about banning the aggressor's banks from SWIFT.

This was not the most complicated or ambitious sanction that should have been imposed in the first week of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

Instead, a lot of Russian banks are still not banned!!!

Now there are all these hesitations with the imposition of sanctions on the Russian nuclear sector, which is fully involved in the war, both on the institutional and personal levels.

“The phased introduction of sanctions, gradual response to potential escalation, phased provision of weapons... this whole concept has been wrong from the very beginning. All the support that can be provided should be provided all at once, not in doses!”

Of course, there are many arguments to explain this phasing.

Then why didn't you get, say, an appendectomy in parts? It is possible to do that, isn’t it? Perhaps, experts will say: it is possible. But is it the right move?
