You have little to no knowledge of International Politics and who had 'Who' on a leash.
Last time 'I checked' it was Biden who gave the go-ahead for Russian Oil ~ (which gave them the resources to launch their War Effort).
Not to mention that Ukraine gov. is one of the most corrupt on the Planet....(this hasn't changed).
Who's really Playing who???
I know international politics comrade. Lets at least tell the truth.
Biden did not give the go-ahead for Nord steam 2. That is not how it works. It was a deal between Russia and Germany. He lifted sanctions on it. It was going on regardless. And the sanctions by Trump were passed in congress. Trump did not come up with it. But to his credit he signed the bill.
And we were buying oil from Russia all during Trump's term. Biden cut it off. Why did Trump let it continue? That money went to the war effort in Ukraine, right?
Ukraine has corruption issues. However Russia is even worse. And neither are one of the most corrupt on earth. An exaggeration on your part.
According to Transparency International's 2021 Corruption Perceptions Index, (a scale of least to most corrupt nations), Ukraine ranked 122nd out of 180 countries in 2021, the second most corrupt in Europe, with Russia the most at 136.
The overtime estimate is still decades out. For now russia is abundant in natural resources the world needs, so they are certainly no cuba. They also have the 2nd biggest economy after us who could care less about any sanctions.
Lol...Russia's 1.5trillion GDP is 10% of China's.
That was before all this started.
At this point, they're probably barely edging out Mexico at 1.1 trillion.
If Russia were a US state they'd rank 4th in GDP with Florida breathing down their neck in 5th

Which is kind of scary considering the nuclear payload. On the other hand, it might be as poorly maintained as the rest of their army and be more of a threat to themselves than anyone else. I could definitely see Russia trying to launch ICBMs and half of them barely getting off the ground before detonating.

Could Trump predict the future?
