Words (the lofty rhetoric of politicians), whether written or oral, have no real meaning unless linked to acts. "By their acts, you shall know them."

Indeed and this goes for everybody involved. The political will of one guy has been revealed now we will see how things are on the other sides. It is very early times, we will see if.

If meaningful economic sanctions get put in place by Europe & Co and kept firm, time will not be on the side of the Russia economy. The big question is the 'if'.

P.S: There are a lot of guys saying that 'sanctions don't work'. They might not have caused the desired political change, but in cases like Iran and Iraq they have beeen pretty good at wrecking the economy. It should work at least decently at creating economic havoc in that large northern Gulf State.
