re: The Official Thread: Russia invades Ukraine

You don't rush to sign a 40 billion dollar bill for Ukraine if they are winning. That was a "oh shite, we are losing bigly" bill.

The reality of the situation is that Russia has essentially beheaded Ukraine and turned it to basically an inflated Moldova by seizing its most resource rich areas and putting it in a position of blockading it to death. Despite the pro-Ukraine narrative, Russia doesn’t need Kiev or to annex the rest of Ukraine and it would make zero sense to do but I know we gotta spin it to look good for Ukraine somehow…THEY RETREATED

N.Korea has trillions in mineral wealth ( far more than S Korea) , but no one to develop or markets to sell most of it . Putin miscalculated greatly.

Russia isn’t North Korea, dear god get off Yahoo News or CNN for a change. It’s actually the other way around. Ukraine was sitting under a pool of untapped resources that could challenge Russia’s advantage in the European market. However, it couldn’t because the country is a cesspit like North Korea until like 2014 where it started flirting with the idea.
