  1. We could have made drones for them in large quantities, but we didn't want to make tough spending decisions.

  2. To destroy Ukranian identity. Since Ukraine's existence means that Kyivan Rus wasn't Russian.

  3. ​ @JS-ip8xm This administration doesn't care. I believe many previous US administrations did, having heard Carter, Reagan and the elder Bush speak.

  7. ​ @untje  quite incorrect. It only hit Ukraine and the area to the south east of it, which also contained many Ukranian speakers. Belorus had a potato surplus thst year. Stalin refused to send it to the famine areas, prefering to sell it abroad. He also refused aid offers from the USA.

  18. ​ @VadimBolshakov It's not so. There wasn't a food shortage at all. The Belorussian SSR offered to send their surplus potatoes to Ukraine, but Stalin refused this. He also refused to adjust the grain quota when he knew the 32-33 grain harvest was lower. His solution was to arrest the people who pointed this out, block the Ukranian borders to stop people escaping the famine, Jan 33 order, and to blame Polish spies. All the while he was exporting grain from Odessa. American charities also offered to ship grain in, but Stalin refused the aid. The famine was so devastating, that the number of Ukranian speakers fell from 90 to 70 percent. The areas outside Ukraine where famine confitions existed were Rostov, Krasnodar, and Stavropol, where Ukranian was also widely spoken at that time. There was no famine in Moscow etc.

  19. ​ @VadimBolshakov it wasn't. Belorus had a potato surplus thst year. The famine hit Ukraine and the collective farms of Rostov, Stavropol etc.

  34. I doubt they understand economics very well. Their banks have a liquidity issue, which means, that at some stage in the not too distsnt future the Russian state will run out of money..​ @glintongordon6811
