What embargo against Russia is still not decided by the West?

When they saythat the current sanctions are ineffective, this is primarily an issue of the quality of sanctions.The fact that they really have limited effectiveness is because of that that thesanction regime practically did not touch the most sensitive sphere for the RF - energy one.

This was stated in the commentary to "Slovo i Dilo" by the president of the Centre for Global Studies "Strategy XXI" Mykhailo Gonchar, assessing theregime of sanctionsand introduction of energy restrictions against the Russian Federation.

"The hope that the RF will go to any concessions because it will not receive any preferential lending for enterprises or banks is useless. As well as the fact that the RF was cut off access to advanced technologies. These are ratherhalf-steps.These sanctions are the result of inadequate analysis. In addition, the pro-Russian lobby in Europe worked well", - Gonchar said.

The sale of energy resources, financial revenues are the leading engine of Russian aggression against Ukraine, Syria. Therefore, we can say that despite existing sanctions, Europe feeds Russian aggression with its money.

"Europe has not decided on energy sanctions now. But sooner or later, in order to contain Russia's aggression, a dilemma will emerge in Europe - either to fight with the Russian Federation, what they fear and avoid, or not to fight, but to impose an energy embargo, which Europe is also afraid of, and not less", - the expert said.

In his opinion, Europe is afraid to impose an energy embargo, as many European businesses and corrupt politicians are involved in relevant long-term deals with the Russian Federation.
