The US paying to rebuild Ukraine and covering medical care for Ukrainian veterans and civilians is the one thing that could really shake my idea that the US is the bad guy in this war. I doubt the US is willing to pay the 100s of billions over decades that would take.
no way is that going to happen after the war everyone is going to be scrambling to loot ukraine to get back the money they lent them
Oh absolutely, I'm certain of this. That's why it would shake my worldview if that didn't happen and instead the US massively invested in the Ukrainian people.
if it helps I think people might loose money trying to loot the country. If they try and treat it like the eastern european goldrush in the 90's they will likely find the rewards far more meagre than expected. In the 90's there was tons of soviet infrastructure that could be got for a litteral steal now everything worth having is gone or destroyed in the war
it's more India in 1940 than india when it had kings who couldn't fight a war to save their lives and palaces of easily portable gold
Going to be? It's already being carved up
The best you'll get is american healthcare companies (just a disgusting chain of words) privatizing the Ukrainian public healthcare system that was a legacy of the Ukrainian SSR. Don't think for a second America has Ukraines best interests at heart when there's a buck to be made
Didn't we start giving them depleted uranium rounds a few months ago?
Its OK. Liberals tell me they dont actually cause cancer
All the birth defects in Fallujah are a total coincidence
Yeah, what's up with that? Was that due to the lack of tanks or something? That can't end well long-term.
They're definitely willing to let the IMF loan them the money to rebuild.
