Michael Roberts had some great analysis on this. https://thenextrecession.wordpress.com/2022/08/13/ukraine-the-invasion-of-capital/
Ukraine has 1/3rd of the arable land in the EU area. It was majority state owned and operated as one of the hold overs from the collapse of the USSR. The sale/privatization of these assets was banned in 2001 and the west’s attempts to influence this has played a part in everything leading up to the war in Ukraine. The maiden revolts, all of it. The privatization and, what’s the word, 3rd-world-ization of Ukraine was a major push of the west. They want imperial super profits and a large ground down proletariate near the rest of Europe.
The maiden revolts, all of it.
I think you mean The Revolution of Wholesome Dignity and Renewal and Victory Against Communist Nazi Russia.

This is just gonna make libs love Blackrock now isn’t it?
wow it’s almost like wrecking and privatizing former soviet states was the goal all along, rather than some noble concern over russian aggression. so happy america’s on the right side of history fighting russia to the last ukrainian.
