2008 Russia takes a piece of Georgia, sanctions were pretty limited

2014 takes two pieces of Ukraine, a few years later he's hosting the World Cup and European leaders are coming to visit him there

2016 elections, Obama's like I don't want to deal with that right now

So the economic sanctions now are maybe more than Russia expected
