'Just something to think about...
So many of our everyday products could be affected by sanctions, restrictions, oligarch-partnered companies. One example is International Paper (who has been doing business in Russia and China for many years) involving wealthy Zakhar Smushkin (Ilim Group). How many US companies purchase paper/pulp products from International Paper and their subsidiaries (like Hammermill)? Where do we and our offices, schools, hospitals, restaurants obtain our printer paper, disposable cups, napkins, diapers, etc? I don't the answer but this is just another example of how Putin is affecting everyone's lives to a degree. However, this is absolutely nothing (to say the least) compared to the price Ukrainians are paying... as Putin is horrifically taking their lives.
