That's another way of getting at the Russian people and not at Putin personally.

The best way to get at Putin is through sanctions that hurt the Russian people.

The UK and the US are phasing out fuel from Russia by the end of the year according to the BBC News just now.

I heard a little bird suggesting that Putin is becoming more and more unpopular with people and party. I'd not be surprised to wake up and find him gone one morning..

Visa.. MasterCard and American Express have put a block on use..
But I think it is only at their cash machines..
Transactions can still be carried out using them..
So I doubt that will cause the people any great problem.. I might be wrong.

I wonder which county he would run to with his billions..
On the other hand he could get bumped off..

Oh I think he and his billions would remain in mother Russia. Probably both stored underground.
