nobody outside China, Cuba, Venezuela and India
That's almost half the world's population right there. Russia isn't going to be that upset if they buy their stuff
atz-
and they buy bananas, cigars, plastic tat and weapons in return.
thats a win yeah?and not forgetting the talent migration/brain drain thats already started, the remaining population will now have to wean itself of decent cars/technology and many other trappings of the west they have got used to.
back to the good old days of the USSR.
Mr_Smyth
Im interested i what happens post agreement, specifically to Russia.
Outside of the terrible human cost of this war the focus is now on stronger ties within Europe and an acceleration of reducing the use of Russian oil/gas.
Putin has fucked himself and his country, i hope they remain toxic and even more marginalised as they sit there and watch half the world help rebuild and want to do business with Ukraine while his own country sits there with no chance of any further military incursions, a pissed off population and the dawning realisation that nobody outside China, Cuba, Venezuela and India want to buy your shit or do business with you.
what a legacy.
