Are Europe’s sanctions on Russian energy doing it more harm than good?

A woman with her face painted in the colors of the Ukraine flag holds a placard as pro-Ukrainian activists stage a protest under the slogan "Stop promising, start acting!" to call for an immediate embargo on oil, gas and coal imports from Russia in front of the Bundestag (lower house of parliament) in Berlin on April 6, 2022, where a debate focusing on civilians found dead in the Ukrainian town of Bucha took place. - Western powers were readying new sanctions against Russia after Ukraine's president called for tougher action and accused Moscow of atrocities during the six-week war. The measures follow an international outcry over hundreds of civilians found dead in areas from which Russian troops have withdrawn around Ukraine's capital, including the town of Bucha.
