Russia has been feeling the sting of Western sanctions that aim to stifle its economy, but the war in Ukraine that sparked those repercussions still rages at year's end.

Missiles are falling on Ukrainian cities, soldiers are fighting and the death toll continues to mount.

"I don't think that sanctions are going to necessarily force Russia to negotiate," said Alexander Lanoszka, an assistant professor of international relations at the University of Waterloo in southwestern Ontario.

The Money Pit

That's some sting. Russia's economy has been booming thanks to sanctions.

Russian economy is strong and their rupel is strong. Groceries are cheap and stores are full. Gas and electricity are also cheap.. CBC lies!

State sponsored news

Have sanctions ever stifled anyone? Look at North Korea, nobody cares about sanctions.

Um, news alert for : Sanctions didn’t work. Russia’s economy is doing just fine, and they have less supply disruptions and price gouging for food than we do. That’s after the US blew up their pipeline!

Sanctions simply don’t work. It is time to negotiate now!!!

'Feeling the sting'? Hardly. The ruble is currently trading a the same level as before the sanctions. More misinfo funded by my taxes. Great.

Lol, Goebbels lives, meanwhile Moscow and Russia thrive. 🇷🇺

The sanctions seems to be hurting the west more then Russia !

The bots are strong on this post. Makes it so much easier to block.

I have serious doubts on this

Rebel News had some good investigative journalism on that topic.

Russia planned on sanctions. They were extremely prepared to fight the terrorist organization known as NATO.

Russia is not feeling the ‘sting’ nearly as bad as western nations, if feeling it at all. The sanctions are a complete failure.

As Putin and Shoigu literally just gave a speech last night on how proud they are that their nation used the sanctions against the west.

It’s not a war on Ukraine it’s a war on Blackrock and the corrupt politicians that funnel their money through that country while the Ukrainians pay the price

Bullshit and disinformation. The only sting felt is by the very warmongers ,the west... that are imposing sanctions on Russia. They have backfired. Russia is thriving. CBCFakeNews

Western nations have been feeling more of it

The sanctions have actually backfired on the West and Europe is paying a huge price for it.
