Yes if the sanctions are not completing their intended purpose and hurting the working class.
@9QZGVST5mos5MO
Yes, if free elections occur and non-violent protesters are not repressed. They should be reinstated if free elections do not occur and non-violent dissent is repressed.
Yes but impose severe tariffs on goods coming in and excise tax on goods going to them. They are ruled by a corrupt, installed government. I feel badly for the population.
