USA will also suffer.

I think you guys are missing one thing here the USA will suffer and so is Russia, Ukraine...

I think Ukraine are suffering the most, having to deal with constant bombardment and destruction of their country which will take years to build again, and also having to deal with the same inflation and even far more worse of it than what the rest of the world is currently facing, i know post-war Ukraine is going to receive quite a lot of aids to assist them in the rebuilding process, but it still would not be easy and would take as long as possible.

Another thing we must even understand is that prior to this war, inflation was already a huge problem, caused as a result of measures taken to combat the pandemic, fast-forward to now, and this war is now making things a whole lot worse with all of this sanctions, honestly the west would likewise bear the brunt of this sanctions, but it is a sacrifice they are taking to force Putin to bring an end to all of this, the more this goes on, the longer the uncertainty lingers.

USA imports half of its uranium from Russia and their ally country Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. From this uranium, the USA produced 20% of their total power supply according to the world nuclear association. USA and their ally EU countries implemented various sanctions on Russia but this sector is still open for trade. Russian company Rosatom takes care of trading uranium to other countries so the USA can do sanction this company? It seems the USA is having a hard time cutting off trade with Russia.

This is interesting, I didn't know that US imports it's uranium from Russia, Moreover, you are right US does produce around 19% of it's electricity from Nuclear sources which means once the uranium reserves of US dry up it has to looked up to some country to import the same. But I think two biggest producers Canada and the Australia are great allies of US, they would be more than willing to export them the same and cancel contracts of other countries just in case this sort of situation arises, so technically US might not find itself in that bad of a situation if Russian company denies to export the same.

You a point about Ukraine being the most affected side and my belief is that the pandemic has thought the leader about the huge solution that peace can bring because if the political difference was put aside when the covid-19 started in Wuhan then the world economy won't be affected this huge by the inflation.
Having said that, It is good that there are talks going on now between Russian and Ukrainian officials.
I hope it is the end of the war though.

Even of Russia would want to pay back USA by not doing business with them, I think USA will still sort themselves out. The USA don't care of Russia will pay back, the USA can't sit down and fold their hands to allow the Russia to take action like this . USA will sort it out but other countries may suffer it too.
