The goal of the Western sanctions is to roll back Russia to the 90s. Even without US regime change, Russia is more likely to end up with a new Yeltsin than a new Putin.
Which is why Russia elected Putin twice, then after term limits were refreshed, again after Medvedyev, and now his approval ratings are soaring, right?

What the West continually fails to understand is that some people have pride and ambition. They will not be cowed materialistically.

This is doing down much faster than I imagined....
at this rate by the end of this week China will be cut from SWIFT as well

And again like with the computer/chip ban thing, this isn't so much about Russia/Ukraine as it is about being a veiled threat and hidden message to China... that if China doesn't capitulate to the US/West, starting with backstabbing Russia, (and ending with complete economic, technological and military surrender to the US) etc that it is China that is next on the chopping blocks of Swift and IC sanctions
Why do you make it like everything you mentioned happens on a linear basis like no severe economic impact can and will happen to America and her western cohorts and that their plan if followed according to your logic would pan out with hardly any unforeseen disasters. No plan no matter how well conceived can fully anticipate any mitigating factor(s) that can end up producing the very result it was aiming against to produce.

If the west decides to exercise this nuclear option then bye bye social stability along with that political stability. And if you think that you can just summarily assume European countries and government can absorb the enormous economic impact of what you describe then I am sorry to say you and I don't live in the same planet. Social and political stability matters everywhere in Europe just as much as it matters to the PRC. Unless the dumb smart elites are prepared to be purged from the ensuing lunacy (if they followed through with what you describe) then I don't see why WWIII wouldn't commence.

I hope for mankind's sake, the west are truly not this dumb and suicidal.

Fighting in Militipol. The building hit by the missile/rocket is a hospital.
It's unfortunate that hospitals are now legitimate military targets just as Mosques, prayer centers, schools, hospitals, media buildings were targeted as legitimate "military targets" by Israel, America, NATO during their respective military invasions, I mean special operations.

China is too big to cut off from SWIFT. It's the biggest trade partner for most countries of the world. Without it SWIFT would just be delegitimised. Even expelling Russia is questionable.
