It stopped Russia from traveling to Brazil
So Russians are not oppressed by their government?
Of course they are. Life is not a binary. International laws have impacts on superpowers too.
Russia is not a friend to America. America and friends can do what they want. Remember all the war crimes America didn't get punished for in Korea and Vietnam? Or in the middle east? Or south america? Or africa? Hell we probably did a few war crimes in antarctica.
Nah. We tried, turns out penguins are as sneaky and clever as they are vicious. Lost a battalion and a half. Cold wars coldest secret.
