Lost among “Three Pines”

Abstract

The sanctions announced and implemented by hostile countries against Russia and you and me, dear fellow citizens, are becoming increasingly harsh and wide-ranging. From the initial declarations of seeking to affect the country’s defense-industrial potential, they are increasingly affecting our daily lives – goods and services that in many cases are part of the familiar and generally accepted list. The sanctions are directed against all of us and aim to destabilize not only the economic, but also the social and, ultimately, political life of our country.
