Even if goods are sold through a proxy, that still exerts economic pressure, because you are adding a middleman and extra paperwork. Maybe europeans could have done a beter job with the embargo, but you also have to consider that if Russia really wants to acquire some commodity, there is not really a way to stop them from getting it if they have the money, proxies and means to get it. An embargo can only make that more difficult.
Nice figure btw
