You really should not be saying **** about this subject. Its pretty clear that you don't know anything about it.
The US left important people behind in Russia's gulag - actual agents -, to rescue a woman for being black and lesbian. You really shouldn't bring up that terrible trade. You should feel SOME shame about it. We have tens of THOUSANDS in our gulags for weed charges, stewp. Think about it, FFS. Our OWN PRISONS are full of marijuana offenders. Not to mention, there are dozens of Americans in Russian prisons for trying to enter the country with weed - they just aren't black lesbians. They aren't important.
Do you know WHO enforces it?
It's whoever has the guns.
In the black sea, that's Putin. He wants to keep it like that. His naval base seemed important to him. He took that bitch before obama's deep state had time to get their installed puppet to move on it. Smart man.
Every war is over market. You obviously suppose wars are fought for principles, for freedom, for honorable reasons - and this in the face of overwhelming contradictory evidence.
To get to the market, you need control of sea lanes. Ot to be allied with those who control them. The chinese and the Russians and the Iranians face the same issues as the Colonists in pre- and post-revolutionary times. Just as the British cut the Colonists off from trade unless they got a cut, the US cuts off Iran, Venezuela, North Korea, Cuba. They also cut Russia off from trade - you may have heard about this under the brand name "sanctions."
One sanction was to blow up the Nordstream pipeline, preventing Putin from selling gas. Did it **** on some of our colonists? Some very cold Germans will respond in the affirmative. But they did it anyway. And they tried to sieze Putins biggest and most strategically critical naval base - and they failed. What is happening NOW in Ukraine is a continuation of that self defense.
Backing nuclear powers into corners is stupid. But here we are - and the puppet masters who feed you with illusions really do not care about the carnage. It's no longer ABOUT mere filthy lucre. It's about reset - and WWIII is a marvelous opportunity for that.
Why would they need to invade from the sea, when they took over the government of Ukraine to give them a land route? That doesn't even make any sense.
But yes - having the black sea would aid immensely in a military invasion of Russia. If you don't understand that, I am not shocked.
I kind of understand what you're saying about all of that. Still, Russia was a benefiting partner in the global regime. Yes, and I think that was a global world order after the Cold War. From what I understand Russia was set to become the 5th largest nation in wealth in GDP in the world. Russia instead became a rouge actor with the sentiment you have provided. This wasn't about self defense in my view. It was an act of historic revisionism and placing Russia on stead with the former USSR that Putin holds so dearly to. I don't think the West was set to colonize Russia. They even invited Russia to form a G8 instead of a G7 at one point.
People are dying in Ukraine now. Hospitals and schools are finding themselves on the other side of drones. I don't really see the purpose of that other than a leader with wounded pride and animosity toward a global structure that ultimately benefits everyone. This isn't really colonialism other than the world is run by international rule of law that provides benefits. The world is set to end global hunger and poverty in the near future due to all of this and Russia was also a beneficiary before the brutality they showed towards Ukraine.
Nothing is easier than defending the status quo.
