Sanctioning Putin's rumored girlfriend Alina Kabaeva would deal a heavy blow to the Russian leader: Expert

U.S. officials reportedly decided against sanctioning the 38-year-old Russian gymnast and Olympic gold medalist Kabaeva citing concerns that it was too drastic, the Wall Street Journal reported Sunday.

 

"Unfortunately, she is not capable of stopping Putin from waging war on Ukraine. But, it will certainly hurt," Koffler said. "It will make her life miserable, and it will definitely, definitely [cause] some damage to his holdings, his wealth that is stashed away in all kinds of tax havens including spread among his relatives and family."

 

Koffler said the reasoning for U.S. officials not to sanction Kabaeva – who is believed to be the mother of at least three of Putin's children – makes "no sense."

 Russian Offensive Campaign Assessment, April 25. 

 

“Russian forces conducted precision missile strikes against five Ukrainian railway stations in central and western Ukraine on April 25 in a likely effort to disrupt Ukrainian reinforcements to eastern Ukraine and Western aid shipments. A series of likely coordinated Russian missile strikes conducted within an hour of one another early on April 25 hit critical transportation infrastructure in Vinnytsia, Poltava, Khmelnytskyi, Rivne, and Zhytomyr oblasts.[1]

 

Russian forces seek to disrupt Ukrainian reinforcements and logistics. The Kremlin may have additionally conducted this series of strikes—an abnormal number of precision missile strikes for one day—to demonstrate Russia’s ability to hit targets in Western Ukraine and to disrupt western aid shipments after US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and US Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s surprise visit to Kyiv over the weekend. However, Russian precision strike capabilities will remain limited and unlikely to decisively affect the course of the war; open-source research organization Bellingcat reported on April 24 that Russia has likely used 70% of its total stockpile of precision missiles to date.”

 

 

Much more at the link, but it sure looks like everybody is settling in for a long war.

It seems to me that the single most effective way to prove you should not be taken seriously, and your views should be disregarded, is to suggest that anyone of any Congressional stature supports Putin.

It is a self proclamation of gross political idiocy.
