If you are planning a trip to Britain be prepared to pay much more for fish and chips. The U.K, and Russia are abrogating the agreement for the Brits to fish in Russian waters. The annual catch was in excess of 500,000 tone of cod and halibut. Just another example of cutting off your nose to spite of your face.
Crab is super expensive in America right now because of sanctions against Russia where 90% of the Crab comes from for American citizens.
So sanctions can cut both ways.
