Almost every country in the world buy commodities from "evil" Russia, including the USA. Your car or cell phone probably have some material that came from "Evil" Russia. Are you going to dump your car or cell phone?
Hmmm I just had a quick look in Wikipedia and this is what I found:
1994 NATO bombing intervention in Bosnia and Herzegovina
1995 NATO bombing intervention in Bosnia and Herzegovina
1999 NATO bombing of Yugoslavia as part of the Kosovo war
2007 NATO bombing of Helmand province
2010 NATO bombing of Tarok Kolache
2011 NATO bombing campaign in Libya
2011 NATO bombing of Bab al-Azizia
NATO sure seems to be dropping a lot of bombs around the world to protect ‘the west and our civilization”. But I get it, NATO bombs are for the good of humanity and Putin’s bombs are evil.
We have to be pragmatic. If we can get Russian oil at a discount, why not take it? The USA is a big producer of oil, so it’s easy for them to say no to Russian oil. However, they have a shortage of Uranium and surprise, there is no sanction on the Russian import of Uranium. As for Europe they are still importing Russian oil and gas.
After some of the largest countries in the world (China, India and Brazil) refused to condemn the Russian invasion of Ukraine, I doubt that whatever the Bahamas will do will have much impact on "humanity".
Lol, do you even understand that there would be no Bahamar without the Chinese? We would still have the Crystal Palace...and as Charles de Gaulle said: "No nation has friends, only interests.". Let that sink in for a moment.
My god have you been living under a rock? Even CNN admitted it (see below, this has been all over the news). When you have no clue what you are talking about, don't accuse others of babbling or making false statements.
The genius is certainly not Biden who said "take the vaccine and you won't get Covid" and who took sanctions against Russia which resulted in a historic price surge in all the commodities that Russia produces. Who do you think benefits from oil at $130 a barrel and who do you think will suffer? And what is Biden doing now that he realized his blunder? He is begging for oil with Iran and with Maduro who has been under US sanctions and is indicted in New York on drug trafficking charges...Not even Democrats are following him on that one. This is what Bob Menendez said about it "Nicolás Maduro is a cancer to our hemisphere and we should not breathe new life into his reign of torture and murder. As such, I would strongly oppose any action that fills the pockets of regime oligarchs with oil profits while Maduro continues to deprive Venezuelans of basic human rights, freedoms, and even food."
Hmmm when the USA invaded Iraq did we seize Bill Gates’ yacht? And under what legal basis would we seize the property of someone else? And how can we determine with certainty that a yacht belongs to a certain individual? These ships are owned by a myriad of companies and often purchased on credit. The government is right to be cautious in this matter.
