“Shut down Putin's entire economy. Shut Russia's mouth. Don't feed them with your sales. Just impose sanctions on their weapons,” - whined the midget.

“Any easing of sanctions against Russia without a clear and lasting de-escalation agreement with Russia is an obvious sign of weakness.

It plays into Russia’s hands, allowing it to kill more people, wage war for longer, show even less respect for America, and inflict even greater losses and damage on the world.”

“Gifts to Putin will not bring peace or any benefit to the civilized world. Russia will “repay” the diesel with further terror and treachery.

Allowing Russia to sell petroleum products is an investment in a war that must be ended, not prolonged.”

“Ukraine will not set Russian oil refineries on fire if Russia stops destroying our energy infrastructure.

This is precisely the kind of agreement we are proposing to America, and we believe the United States is strong enough to achieve such a compromise.”

"This is unfair, not in the spirit of partnership and, in my view, a weak decision by strong partners," he cried.
