Buying the Russian Dip

NATO, Europe and the USA have been imposing sanctions on Russia since the early 2000s

These sanctions ramped up in 2014 when Russia annexed Crimea.

Yet after all these threats and sanctions, the Russian economy is at the strongest point its ever been and so is its Equity markets which makes me think :

After every sanction, Russia and its markets have seemed to bounce back and continue to capitalize/appreciate.

Is Russia too big and influential to fail? Markets track record seems that these sanctions serve only as temporary bumps, and don’t really have any long term effect on economic growth

Im interested in what everyone else thinks.
Is this a good entry point into the Russian market?
And also,
Are there any sanctions we haven’t considered that you believe will have a real effect on Russia’s economy?
Looking forward to hearing your rationales

I'm not a lawyer but I dont think the SEC/State Department/DOJ//.... would find you buying Russian stocks as particularly funny at the moment. Ideas have some merit but sovereign risk is the death of most good foreign investments and it is practically difficult/impossible.
