The Russia-Ukraine Crisis that Nobody is Talking About

[DGS49]

It appears that Western Banks are holding about US$300Billion in "frozen" Russian deposits. Those banks/the EU are preparing to formally freeze those funds as a guarantee that Russia will pay reparations to Ukraine when the current conflict ends. Formal decision to be made by the end of the year.

But Mr. Putin has an economically "deadly" response at the ready. There is approximately US$800Billion - probably more - in European and American assets (businesses) in territory controlled by Russia, and Putin has created a law that gives him the power to "nationalize" those assets with only a few days notice, and with no recourse by the holders of those assets.

It's no fun being in a war where YOU obey the traditional rules and your adversary flouts them with impunity and enthusiasm. Putin doesn't want the war to end. "Everyone" is finally realizing this. And as long as the Russian population is willing to keep feeding him canon fodder...

Take a Russian's money or harm their children and you are fucked....The EU should bear that in mind.

I'd not mind seeing the EU fucked....I'd not mind a bit....Deserves has everything to do with it. They are the ones perpetuating the war.

Well, more accurately the WASHINGTON DC DEEP STATE via the EU...

I support sending any democrat that wants to fight Russia a free trip to Ukraine.

I guess it’s their fault that Russia invaded Ukraine, too.

Obviously, according to your Kremlin based thinking, Ukraine should have just let the Russians march in.

“Deserves has everything to do with it”

We can’t have the countries that lived behind the Iron Curtain or sat next to Russia’s armies standing up for Ukraine!

You cheer for Putin.

 

[TheGreatSatan]

You cheer for Putin.

I cheer for peace.

People who want war won't want it if they have to fight.

Democrats = traitors

LOL. After Russia takes over the entire country they are going to have to pay Ukraine reparations?

You cheer for Putin.

Your beloved fuhrer is trying to force Ukraine to accept Moscow’s terms.

Moscow dictated those terms to Witkoff and released them to publicized their demands as an “American” plan in order to insure Trump got behind it.

Which wasn’t that difficult, since Trump supports the Russian war.

^^^ Democrats will fight Russia to the last Ukrainian but won't volunteer to join them.

Empty prattle!

Meanwhile Trump cultist claim that they are for “peace” when what they really want is for Putin to win. Just because that’s what Trump wants.

So, $300bil of Russia's assets confiscated means playing by the rules, Russia doing the same to the EU's property equals Putin not wanting the war to end? What's your freaking logic?

At this point both Russia and Ukraine have lost

Trump, like me, just wants it to end.

As far as I can see, Trump just trying "to skim the creams from shit" (or "to milk a he-goat"). A stupid and disgusting attempt to make minimal profit from something unfittable for it. And no, this great deal-maker already lost a great opportunity to get off from the hook almost scot-free.

It's quite simple logic.
Rule one:
The Europeans always try to steal your money.
Rule two:
If the Europens don't try to steal your money - read Rule one.
