That’s so nice of them to already plan trade with the future Russian province of Ukraine.
Like that’s FOUR YEARS from now 😭 what do they expect from this war
For it to be over so they don’t have to make good on the deal
they want ukraine to be a client state i guess
I have said it before, but western timelines are hilarious. If they really wanted to win this war they would put everything into it and damn the cost (and by cost I mean, damn the low to no profits). But that isn’t how or why the western MIC exists. It exists to extract maximum profit from its tax payers. And dawdling, dragging your feet, and making sure everything is done “by the book” means a lot more money for for the ghouls that make up the industry.
It’s also possible that the decades of financialization and deindustrialization of Westoid economies has left this paltry effort the best that the West can do without shocking the war economy into a war footing.
They already threw everything at it at the beginning and for the counteroffensive. Russia just outproduced them all
A big reason for this is because the west are not asking difficult questions like “should people be making a profit on all these weapons we are making or should we consider streamlining the weapon production process by nationalizing”
The west certainly could compete, but it won’t. Because for the US this is not a war of survival, this is just another day of laundering public money with another war.
The west can’t compete, it moved all manufacturing to the global south and China.
The number one thing we can learn from Russia and China is this: Don’t rely on other countries for your food and weapons. Self sufficiency in those areas are a matter of national security and national cohesion.
Neglecting those 2 are ultimately what is finally going to end western hegemony.
Can’t enforce a dollar hegemony if you don’t have the weapons to back it up.
I also love to make promises I know I won’t have to deliver on for free cred
This resembles when you like someone but don’t like like them
lol, lmao
That’s like when your teacher would say “I promise we’ll get to that” whenever they didn’t want to answer a question.
