Even before the war Ukraine was the worst performing country in the world economically since the fall of the USSR. Now with a few more million residents gone, a debt to GDP ratio in the whole digits, and all property to speak of owned by US capitalists, the country is in for a really rough generation or three.

The US will pay for Ukraine’s existence as long as they agree to letting the US build more military bases as they encroach into Russian territory. Ukraine’s far-right government will happily accept even knowing it’ll lead to another war, he’s done it once, he’ll do it twice.
