Agreed. Putin had been building up to it for years though. The first sanctions made it possible to hasten this process. And the Russian oligarchs aren't extinct or anything. They are still super-rich compared to the average Russian. They just can't mess with the government right now, and they have to support the renewed semi-planned economy.
