RE:No Fear Russia is reaping big money from their oil and gas sale.
Oil and gas exports are the lifeblood of the Russian economy — accounting for roughly 40% of the country’s annual revenue. So far, economic sanctions, while severe, have largely left the Russian energy sector untouched.
The sale of Russian oil and gas remains legal in Europe, with companies free to profit so long as they can tolerate potential public blowback related to their dealings with the Kremlin.
Russia earning huge oil, gas profits despite Western sanctions (nypost.com)
The sanctions only hurt the poor countries which have no skin in this western war with russia.

Gotta wonder when AOC will catch wind of this what her opinion will be...ROFL
