“These sanctions might or are bound to backfire as the previous sanctions did, because throughout the three years of the special military operations, Russia, according to what we heard from the leaders, managed to diversify its oil exports. They have, instead of being dependent on the European market, which is important, has always been important. But still, India and China and other countries from the Global South are buying Russian oil at favorable prices.
