    False, its soil is incredibly fertile and their agricultural exports influence food prices across the globe.

    That’s beside the point though.

      But you can’t loot that. There’s nothing that can be taken or enjoyed by a Russian oligarch. No one is excited about having a dacha in a Ukrainian wheat field.

        I did say it was beside the point. The invasion was an unforced error caused by the fact that Putin has surrounded himself with far right yes men. He’s fucked himself, and he’s dead if he admits it. His fear of color revolutions is slowly but surely being made into a self fulfilling prophecy. Stalin was a paranoid too, just Russia being Russia.
