I heard a theory that seems plausible. After Kremlin poisoned Navalny the United Statesians threatened to kick Russia out of the SWIFT system, arguably the strongest non-violent reaction they can come up with. But now, with troops on the border, the SWIFT threat has shifted to become the thing that will happen if they invade Ukraine. Meaning as long as Russia doesn't invade they have in effect walked away from the poison incident scot free.
