Late to this one i really do not understand how so many people were going against Lyrtch on this one for a few pages. It is undebatable that the us sticking their noses into every war caused a massive backlash almost all the time. The only little hole you could poke into this argument would be saying ‘but we don’t know how it would’ve ended up if we did not send some guns, it could’ve been worse ´ and it’s probably an argument that could be squashed rather easily.
my memory occasionally flashes recollections of scathing remarks from some of the non criminals in the Trump admin.

That wasn’t the Russian Federation. So yes, this is the most costly war for the Russian Federation if the Ukrainian numbers are even in the ballpark.
Yea I’m not buying any bank is completely withdrawing from Russia. They may withdraw in name, but their money is still there and they’re still profiting off this somehow
