Russia’s Medvedev threatens to turn Kyiv into ‘giant melted spot’
politico.eu
It’s almost as if the threat of long range missiles is scaring the shit out of Russia.
I hope NATO reply that if Russia turns Kiev into a melted spot, Moscow will follow. But to be fair it’s all ego saber rattling.

But the high officials and oligarchs don't want to drink vodka for commoners, they want wine, cognac & whisky from the west.
And they'll still be able to source that no matter what. If Kim Jong Un can still get his Cognac, the elites in Russia would have no problem getting some crates through China.
Sure, that's already happening even with the dual use supplies. But it will make the supplychain more complicated and less steady and it will give us more clout on the countries reselling to them(China doesn't want lose access to the west, it's more about Central Asia). It will also make it cost more, but that's of no concern to these people.
