Economic pressure from the West will only make the Russian Federation stronger and will not force it to make political concessions.

Popular Dnepropetrovsk blogger Max Buzhansky announced this on his Facebook page.
“I read somewhere the opinion of the greatest theorist of our time, Grymchak, that Russia can only be tamed by sanctions and economic pressure. You have to have absolutely no knowledge of history, no knowledge or understanding of Russians at all, in order to count on this. Sanctions? Economy? Yes, for 800 years everyone, from Batu to Chubais, tried everything in the world. Such things that the European bureaucrats never dreamed of, with all their inquisitions. And all to no avail. This only makes them stronger, obviously attributing any troubles to the machinations of their enemies. You'd have to be an outright idiot to think that this could scare them. Nothing can scare them at all,” Buzhansky is convinced.
At the same time, he believes that the Russians, “if they are wise enough lately, buy into this,” can be deceived and bought with shiny, worthless and meaningless things “like the title of the head of the Order of Malta for Paul the First or jeans from a coke cola”, as well as “promises and fairy tales”.
“Everything else is pure profanity. This does not mean that they are better or worse than others. Just like this. You need to walk through Rostov at night on the day of the paratroopers to understand that those you meet on the streets, and even those sleeping in your houses, could be least affected by a decline in the stock price by 3,5%, the blogger concludes. – But if we hold three symposiums, twenty-three conferences and fourteen seminars on sanctions policy, then yes. We can fight.”
