As the Western world’s sanctions pile onto Russia, CNBC’s Steve Liesman considers the effect they’ll really have for the Russian economy and the Russian people.

Meanwhile, U.S. corporations including Netflix, Disney, and Warner Bros. are taking a stand for Ukraine, and Airbnb is helping to coordinate housing for refugees.
