So Germany are the ones stopping Russia being removed from SWIFT payments, so they can continue to buy gas from Russia... whilst giving money to Ukraine to buy weapons (but not weapons themselves obviously, that would be bad, right?)

Going well for them so far though, Ruble down 30%, interest up to 20%, one of the state banks expected to fail today or tomorrow (Sberbank) amid a run on it, being forced to block foreign sales of stock.

Add in increased motivation from Finland and Sweden to try to join Nato and a massive change in policy on arms spending by Germany, and it seems as well as tanking the Russian economy they're going to have more guns and weapons on their border.
