    Imagine if Ukraine had just followed the Minsk agreement? They would not have lost any further territory, no civilians bombed in Donbas, no thousands of their people marched to their deaths in a suicidal offensive. They would have been a trading hub between EU and Russia. And most of all, THERE WOULD BE PEACE!

    Now they will lose big chunks of territory, have lost thousands of people, the economy is non-existent and destroyed infrastructure. The amount of blood in the hands of the Kiev regime is horrendous. They sacrificed their country to appease western capitalists. I really wish Ukrainians could understand what is going on and turn their guns against their government and put those people on trial for what they did.

      imagine if Boris didn't go to Kiev and Lloyd Austin didn't instruct Zelensky to break the Turkey deal in April , 2022.

      You also forgot, the few things still owned by the state have now been privatized by western capital to try and fund this foolish endeavour. When the west pulls out, not only will they have lost their land, homes, and lives, they'll be in a worse financial position because the state won't have the means to provide and will be relying on western capital. In the end, what's left of Ukraine becomes another neo-colonial capitalist hellscape for the workers while western capital sits back and counts new stacks.
