It's one thing to use sanctions against a tinpot regime like that of Iran.
It's quite another to use them against a great power like Russia, and to threaten them against India if they aren't obedient little dogs imposing sanctions on Russia.
I have respect for every people in the world, except the Welsh.
The Iranian people certainly is doing impressive things, no thanks to their regime though. I'm glad the regime is not a puppet to the Empire, but they're not exactly doing great things for their people - it's like the anti-imperialists version of Ukraine.
My point is that it is easy to bully smaller states, even if they have large amounts of oil, but it becomes much harder when you do it to a country like Russia, and it will be suicide if they try it with China.
Hahaha, and it's all "Trump's fault". The current sanctions are totally irrelevant!
The WaPo is such a cliche.

Right but China isn't going to stop trading with us on the chance that maybe they can tap into the Iranian market instead.
Sanctions, and printing literally billions of the little bastards only a couple of years ago...
