The year 2014 called, it wants its ineffective sanctions against Russia back
Russian President Vladimir Putin has invaded Europe three times in the past 14 years. He attacked Georgia in 2008 and invaded Ukraine and annexed Crimea in 2014. In 2008, the United States did little more than a "smack on the wrist" to Russia. In 2``014, sanctions were imposed. Each action had little resonance over Putin’s behavior. Now, after Putin's latest invasion of Ukraine, President Joe Biden is recycling ineffective strategies from a failed playbook that has repeatedly proven unsuccessful against Putin.
