Here in Aus:
Just watching the news about the new multibillion $ packages from the EU and the $ from the USA...
Besides, that some of these monies seem to be from the $Interest$ that Russia should receive (so no actual outlay) - And that Poland and others have stepped up to the plate is great news, albeit some funds and materials are still 'Later this year'.
It seems to me, in my fickle mind that the 'West' is starting to go for it...
Upping the pressure, now.
I wonder if Five Eyes knows something we don't.
I've said previously; that the 'West' cannot allow Putin to win. The Russian 'Bureau's' that (apparently, Putin still has to get the ok from)), may be thinking it's not going too well for Russia [Considering the continuing fall in Gas/Oil revenue and the Ruble decline - AFAWK] and that other people in the background may have to have 'words; with Putin?
How much is really left in this National Wealth Fund that Russia built up really quickly - amazingly a year, for some unknown reason!! - just before they invaded UKR?
No-one "The West' talks about what they thought about as this surprising massive increase in the NWF was going on.
Remember Macron going personally to see Putin months before the invasion...? The West [Five Eyes] knew!
10 years ago it was Crimea.
[NB: I wonder if these Crimea attacks are going to be another D-Day thing?] I understand that one shouldn't say these things on social media as "Lips sink Ships", but is Putin thinking the same thing?
Now it's half of Ukraine.
All of Putin's ideas of 'going back to the old days', is that in another 10 years, he will (from the back benches), be pushing...!
It's going to be far cheaper and many lives saved to stop him now, than in another 10-20 years.
However, the weapon 'Safety/Security' technology is big $. Russia/China will build better stuff and the 'West' will build better 'anti' Russia/China stuff.
Wash - Rinse - Repeat....
