[QUOTE="Fantom, post: 995264, member: 3438"] Sanctions aren't "supposed" to be anything. They are used for whatever purpose the issuers see fit. As I previously said the purpose for most sanctions is to hinder the growth of another nation so that their economy is, in the future, outmatched by others and can no longer compete in international trade. :ThumbsUp1: You ever read The Prince? States act in order to secure themselves. Any nation in the position of the USA/ EU would do the same. Hence why the UK, French, Ottomans, Mughals, Persians, Qing, Abbasids, etc. all expanded their borders and formed empires. That is how a state becomes secure. [/QUOTE]
