“ Mixing politics and economy is mightly communist and won’t end well”
If only you had had the balls to have told Putin that, before he squandered the oil and gas market that the Russian economy depends upon, by using it as a political weapon.
Now he has NATO weaponry blowing young Russians apart as well.
Putin is a master strategist, who has engineered the biggest Russian bloodbath since WWII. Mixing little Napoleon Complex dictators with the economy is mightly communist, and won’t end well.
This gaslightng is going to bring you nowhere.
Putin is not using commerce for weapon, your leaders do.
As for NATO weapons, I wouldn’t feel too comfortable in your shoes given the reports that Ukrainians are selling them to terrorists.
And you can be sure that the post-Cold War period of easy NATO military interventions is over. The American enemies are going to get the best for the time being.
