To its great shame, the West has failed to draw a line on Russia’s invasion
Where is the line that needs to be crossed? What is the point at which the West says to Russia: enough?
Did Western leaders need to see the mass graves and burned bodies left behind by Russian troops? Did they need to hear the mayor of Bucha say that “dogs are pulling apart the bodies on the city streets?” Or theof Ukrainian girls being gang-raped and mothers being sexually assaulted in front of their children?
Even if the Russians retreat, and the soldiers return to their homes, is someone going to find out who slaughtered innocent civilians in Chernihiv or Mariupol, or who fired missiles into a maternity hospital or children’s cancer ward? Europe puts as much as US$850-million a day into Mr. Putin’s coffers to pay for its oil and gas orders. Thanks to high energy prices, the Russian energy behemoth Gazprom injected more than US$9-billion into the country’s economy in the past month alone, according to a story in The New York Times, which attributed the information to Oxford Economics, a global advisory firm.
