it's enough to make you wonder if russia will ever stop it's new war based economy; given the lessons that they've learned about their own military's capabilities.

you'd also wonder if other people around the world would learn the same lesson that the ukrainians had to learned the hard way; that the united states created the nato clique using political violence like they did in latin america or the middle east and, just like latin america or the middle east, you're nothing more than profit motive cannon fodder to the united states if you let us agitprop you into believing that you can join us.

What threat does Russia pose to us, and why should we care about Ukraine? It's a border dispute and none of anyone's business apart from the protagonists!

Job growth and innovation ? Wow, didn't think it was still possible to think something like that

Russian military production increases that seem to match entire west is a horrible consequence. 5% gdp military spending all around isnot what world needs.

A stronger instead of weaker Russia is weakening of west, and inflation from sanctions.
