On balance, economic sanctions are reducing the threat russia poses to western interests?

This is still debated among economists: so there is no clear answer to this.

i would only give some arguments:

- they do seem to work, because after the situation in Crimea in 2014, the conflict did not get worse

-On the other hand: Russia did not withdraw from Crimea- so they did not work completely.

In general, I would say that the sanctions are rather aimed at specific event (forcing Russia to stop the war in Ukraine) than weakening it: since the sanctions also harm other countries. And if we evaluate them with respect to this, i would say: they are effective in "reminding" Russia that not everything is allowed, but do not weaken Russia significantly.

A woman was arrested, given Miranda warnings, and questioned about an armed robbery. After she asked to speak with an attorney,

nadezda [96]

Answer:

The court should sustain the objection

Explanation:

The woman may have her statements excluded for the purpose of evidence for prosecution. This will be based on the fact that the police did not honor the woman's request for an attorney and went ahead to proceed with custodial investigation(violation of Miranda's right to counsel). All questions should have therefore ceased until the accused is provided with an attorney or initiates further questioning herself. On this basis the court should sustain the objection.
