If you look at what both Europe and Ukraine is doing right now with sanctions, they're being a bit more clever. - You want to turn Russians against Putin, yes.

If you look at what both Europe and Ukraine is doing right now with sanctions, they're being a bit more clever. - You want to turn Russians against Putin, yes. But you don't want to have those same people hate Ukraine/US. - For example, sanctioning a hospital or stopping sales of food or medical supplies into Russia would be a stupid sanction. Forbidding oligarchs from living luxury lives in Europe is a good one. - Right now, most sanctions are focused on the wealthy and influential Russians, since those are the ones that have any sway. - My guess is that the vast majority of Namecheap customer's are exactly the ones that will protest against Putin, or organize information campaigns aginst him. - Obviously sanctioning Kasparov or Navalny would be the dumbest move. This is sort of in that same category.
