Welcome to the multipolar world, New York Times! And to the western ruling "elite": thank you for sanctioning Russia, you moronic imperialist scum. Now there is an alternative global financial architecture forming that will make western sanctions toothless and ineffectual, even against small countries you used to be able to bully, choke and rob. One step closer to the comprehensive defeat of the arrogant West, one step closer to the complete liberation of the global south.
Wow Putin must be a mad man, the reasonable thing to do would be helping burguerstates enforce sanctions
You jest, but I've met people - in Russia, not online - that appear to genuinely think that.
Not to mention USA routinely and openly demands support from countries they openly call "hostile", like China, against those countries allies, partners and other friendlies.
