Ze kunnen dat proberen maar Rusland moet dan wel meewerken aan het gegeven dat alles in Swift wordt verboden behalve gas en olie leveringen. Vanaf dat je Swift in de strijd gaat smijten dan stoppen de gasleveringen sowieso, zelfs al zeg je Putin dat de zaken die voor ons belangrijk zijn wel mag blijven leveren.
Het idee is er al dat er opofferingen zullen moeten gebeuren als ze beslissen om Swift te gebruiken.

European concerns are said to centre on potential damage to their own economies if they are unable to buy Russian gas using the system. But ex-Cabinet minister Robert Jenrick said the crisis was now so serious that
countries had to accept sacrifices to punish Russia.
Mr Jenrick told the Daily Mail: 'Suspending Russia from Swift is the single most effective, immediate act available to inflict serious harm on their financial system. Whilst Russia has developed alternatives, they are not the same, and there would be major dislocation.
'The UK appears to be arguing the case with our allies, which is hugely welcome, but sadly some nations are putting their short-term financial interests first. Russia is relying on such weakness, we need to go hard now or the cost will only increase.'
US-British financier Bill Browder, who once described himself as 'Vladimir Putin's number one enemy', yesterday said the suspension would knock Russia 'back to the dark ages'.
Mr Kuleba was even more outspoken, tweeting: 'Everyone who now doubts whether Russia should be banned from Swift has to understand that the blood of innocent Ukrainian men, women and children will be on their hands too.'
But some nations are said to be worried that the ban could lead to an even worse outcome, such as driving Russia into the arms of Chinese payment systems
