    They are burying Ukraine in debt they will never be able to repay and its resources will be gobbled up by various capitalists. THIS was the plan from the start

        Not really, initially some countries wanted to make it a gift. After all it comes from Russian assets and Ukraine is being invaded by Russia. Now they changed it so the countries with the worlds largest economies can also profit from the assets they took from Russia.

      Having debt is not bad in it self. The UK paid their last WW1 debts back in 2011 or something. I know the UK is in a bad state but it is not because of those war debts.

          Ukraine feeds a lot of the world, and it’s in everyone’s best interest that it keeps doing that.

          Oh I see. So the US master plan was to make putin attack Ukraine, give Ukraine loans, ???, putin pulls out of Ukraine, Ukraine now in debt to the US, ???, profit?

          putin must be a complete moron to go along with this. Unless you are saying that hes also psrt of the evil capitalist world order?

      My god, read the bloody article.

      They gave ukraine a 50bn loan which is being paid off by the interest on the frozen Russian assets at approx 3bn a year.

      Ukrainians will not have to pay back a si gle penny of this “loan”
