Welcome to The Week in Charts, where we break down Gallup's latest insights on our constantly evolving world. Here are the five insights you shouldn't miss this week: | 1. Sanctions on Russia: Mission Not Accomplished | | As the Western world continues to rally behind Ukraine, sanctions and price controls implemented by the U.S. and its allies have apparently failed to pinch Russian pocketbooks.

Biden's Salt in the Wound on Social Security | | Many noted President Joe Biden's deft jab across the aisle on Social Security and Medicare during his State of the Union address.

As the term-limited President Muhammadu Buhari leaves office, his leadership approval rating is more than 40 percentage points lower than when he first took office.

Dig into what we learned here. Learn More | | 5. Black History and Black Futures | | As Black History Month becomes, well, history this week, your humble author reminds himself that every day is a good day to learn about where we live. The Gallup Center on Black Voices is one resource tracking what we believe are the key life outcomes for Black Americans. While the past matters, the future matters more.
