Should we sacrifice the economy for SANCTIONS against RUSSIA?

Three university students in Budapest discuss the claim, “It is worth sacrificing economic well-being for sanctions against the Russian Federation.”

They consider how sanctions can impact their home economy, Russia’s economy, and individuals in lower economic strata. The direct effectiveness of sanctions is weighed against the messaging sanctions may achieve, particularly when sanctions are imposed by a global pact (like the EU). One student says sanctions show a unity of western values and can create “a point in history when the Russian Federation’s power can go down and never come back.”
