I had hoped the EU countries would take another look at their fuel contracts with Russia and perhaps find a way to kick out of them early. I don't think that's going to happen though, as countries have painted themselves into a corner by relying on Putin for so long. Foreign investment is down in Russia, and their economy is basically flat, but that hardly seems like a real punishment. It's hard to admit, but Putin can basically get away with everything with very little backlash. This how tyrants are made.
