Possible sanctions that France and her allies concur may be used to penalize Russia consist of
Some nations allow the purchase of a “golden visa” not typically readily available, with the payment or financial investment of a big amount of cash, and these nations will likely be contacted to reject this option to the Russian oligarchs and other Russian elite as part of this sanctions program.

Cutting Russia off from the SWIFT global payments system,

Well done France, you have my respect 😇
I don’t think the Russians do not know what the west would n could do
They are ready n prepared
This is the reason that tells the world Zelensky has lost his sense of joking n playing
I think Russia is quite aware that the West is weak and dependent on the East for all important goods. The East is rising and the West is declining. The West doesn’t like that.
They talk about sanctions but how about ACTIONS!
As an American I love it when France stands up in the firm way you can achieve! Thank you to our brothers and sisters in France, now lets get Italy and Germany on board today!
Russia do not import food and fuel, it exports grain ( the largest ) and gas, how would the sanctions work in our favorite? By cutting ourself off from gas? Even without SWIFT other countries will still buy grain from Russia to feed their population, or we go after those countries with sanctions aswell ?
As a Nigerian who is not directly affected by this conflict,my prayer is for this conflict not to turn to what both western allies and Russia will regret in future.All i see is too much egos on all sides of this conflict.
Yes 👍
EU must agree to stop Russian access to Swift.
Hopefully when Europe needs help someone will come, oh wait..
With all the _crushing_ sanctions that have been applied to Russia – it’s a wonder that this country still exists !!!
Extend sanctions to include food, medicines and medical equipment.
Good for France supplying military equipment to Ukraine.
As an Afghan, my heart is broken for the people of Ukraine. This is exactly what’s been happening to our country for the past 30-40 years. May God protect the innocent ones.
People of Ukraine, remember no one is your friend nor West, nor Russia…
You dont fought for your country. U.S gave all assistance possible and you give up without shot one single bullet.
Good job. Spain, Italy and Portugal should build massive solar farms and stop buying Russian gas and petrol. They can also sell energy to Germany. Energy loss is not that much once you step up the voltage.
Nah…! Do you really believe sanction would worried Russia? When they were about to own Ukraine.
“discussing this issue” “writing the report”… With these Europe and NATO I am afraid for a WWII part 2….
Still lots of bull talking..need more swift actions from all over the world now..😜😜😜
Ukraine stay strong support is on the way 💪we will win with agressor
Thank you France, bit late but let’s crack on from here. Bring it on. 👍🏼
Slava ukraini! 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
