My understanding is that the purpose of sanctions are:
Diminish the capability of the Russian economy to sustain a military invasion.
As a bargaining chip. The releasing of sanctions can be traded for a withdrawal, creating an incentive to end the invasion.
There are people (especially online commenters) who think it will change the entire government of Russia, but that’s not a concrete outcome like the main effects.
What other options are there in terms of nonmilitary responses to a military actions?
