And an interesting summation of some data:
"Three large American multinationals bought 17 million hectares of Ukrainian agricultural land. These are Cargill, Dupont and Monsanto (which is officially German-Australian but with American capital). Five percent of Ukrainian agricultural land was subsequently purchased by the Chinese state. For comparison, the whole of Italy has 16.7 million hectares of agricultural land. In short, three American companies bought more useful agricultural land in Ukraine than the whole of Italy."

For the few and politically well,-connected. Corruption of many kinds is evident, the governments all deeply involved. All of them. The stakes are high, and the grift -- from small to large -- easily evident, wearing the camouflage of "white hats" and the anointing of assertions without substance.
IGNORE the AGITPROP, not worthy of a response :)
The Pro- Putin invasion squad are just attempting to prevent their current false agitprop from being revealed.
The term ‘AGITPROP’ of using political slogans and half-truths were specific to the Marxism practiced by communists in the Soviet Union. Originally, the label was a shortened form of the ‘Agitation and Propaganda Section of the Central Committee Secretariat of the Communist Party’ in the Soviet Union.
Today, AGITPROP is just the modernization of this same political strategy. Often, this AGITPROP version may be found within public forums and chat-rooms.
The “Pro-Putin Russian invasion” distractors and detractors are just applying ‘agitation and propaganda’ techniques to ‘troll’ others in an attempt to influence public opinion.
“Pro-Putin Russian invasion” lurkers are about to vomit more of their AGITPROP!
