If Russia invades Ukraine,

[rickmoen]

Russia should be expelled from the G7 or other economic groups.

1. Russia already got expelled from the G8...

...that's why it's now called the G7...

I did not know that. Thank you for that information.

2. Russia was already expelled. It was callled the G8 before. Nt

3. Perhaps not allowing them participatory status...

Like not allowing them council seats and votes in the UN? That would make more sense at this point since they've already been expelled from the "G#".

Edited for clarity.

4. Yup

And not allowing them access to international banking.

6. There are more punitive measures available

President Biden warned Putin the other day that he'd regret an invasion.

Much to Putin's surprise, I think, most of the West has unified against Putin. Germany is unique as they really need the Russian fuels but the rest of Europe is standing together.

There are lots of economic pressures the West can inflict on Russia.
