But it has seen an impact, it resulted in the JCPOA

You asked for an example of a country changing its attitude, that is what happened in Iran to negotiate the nuclear deal. Now you are moving the goal posts and claiming that it wasn't sufficiently successful in the long run. That may well be, but it has nothing to do with the presence or absence of sanctions.

I also want to point out that sanctions often work far more subtly than what you imagine. If six months from now, Ukraine and Russia engage in successful peace talks, sanctions will certainly have played a role in shifting Russia's position closer to that of Ukraine, but on the surface it will be impossible to tell by how much.

Edit my comment to add the Iran example

The goal is to make the cost of waging war increasingly painful to pay. There is no other way to effectively do this than to target the entire country.

Off the top my head, the sanctions on Iran were pretty effective to get them to negotiate the nuclear deal. Until Trump tore that one up, that is.

Lustigerweise hat gerade Kuba selber in den letzten 3 Jahren 5% der Bevölkerung durch Auswanderung verloren.

When Austria sends its people, they're not sending their best. They're bringing crime. They're terrorists. They're dictators. And some, I assume, are good people.

How much more does it cost to the alternatives?

Most people barely know about it nor do they care.

The courts decide if a party can be banned the government can only initiate the process, also most experts on constitutional law seem to be of the opinion that a ban for the whole party is unlikely and even if it succeeded the would just be a replacement party stepping in to fill the void.

Die AfD hätte die Möglichkeit die Ministerpräsidentschaft der CDU zu überlassen, im Gegenzug erhielte sie dafür das erste Mal Regierungsbeteiligung auf Landesebene und Legitimation für zukünftige Koalitionen.
