> Sanctions don't work. Please stop the sanctions.

Examples? All I can see is majority of russians living their life as usual. Sure some transplants in Moscow are sad that their consumarism routine got distracted, but that is it.

As for money frozen in EU, IIRC most of it aren't realted to the goverment and just happened to be in trasit when sanctions started.

Every oligarch knows that Putin is the hand that feeds and biting it at best gets you in prison at worst an express descend to the ground.
