That the basics of the plan are categorically unacceptable to Russia is given. Unmentioned by Ritter, is the biggest objection: Not only keep Ukraine aligned with NATO with military funding, but extend their terrorist shelling activities that caused the war, with NATO "peacekeeper" troops who have only demonstrated evil intent towards Russia so far.
Ritter does a bad job with countering "increased sanctions threat", and threats of a $45/barrel price cap instead of current $60.
The US is a bank masquerading as a country as a parallel to accusing Russia of being a gas station masquerading as a country. Russia is the most self sustained country in the world, and war needs massive oil/diesel use, and Russia has banned exports of diesel because it needs so much (in addition to giving consumers a break on prices). Projecting that Russia depends on same BS that runs US economy, is the false faith in sanctions. Most of the world does not blame the war on Russia, or apply US ordered sanctions.
Ritter's bad argument on oil price is simply that if Russia wanted to sell all of its oil to Europe for $60/barrel, then Brent crude would trade at $60. Russia simply has other global customers, as well as its massive internal needs.
