Oh yes how opportunistic. Now that Ukraine had been weakened let’s push thru some “reforms” to make it easier to pillage legally.

Scandalous that war is business, instead of battle between good and evil

A lot of people think pedophiles are at the bottom of the moral spectrum, that is hard for there to be anything worse, oh boy, if they knew its not even close to the bottom.

whats in it for the usa to provide financial assistance i wonder? weaken russia? funnel money to their defense bros? probably both, certainly not out of the goodness of their heart. britain is no different.<p>what should have happened is countries form a coalition of troops under a non-nato banner and go in and help with the fighting... if they really wanted to help ukraine that is.<p>what we see atm is all just money money money.

Less a scandal than the predictable outcome of a massive wartime trade account deficit, and faltering state revenues, that have to be made up via the sale of Ukrainian assets in the capital account paying out to the state? I am a socialist, but Ukraine is in a war of survival under extreme economic duress, and could lose US backing under Trump. It has to do whatever is necessary at this point. Not surprising it would favour the UK given that it&#x27;s one of its leading geopolitical backers and the City of London. Happy to be told otherwise if anyone knows more about the Ukrainian economy and any alternative lifelines open to it.
