Look at Russian influence on Venezuela. Not so long ago, Venezuela, with the Western Hemisphere's largest oil reserves, was producing about 3 million bbl of oil per day. Now, under Russian influence, they only produce about 1 million bbl per day, enough to keep the Maduro regime in power. Hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans have fled the country due to its economy under Russian stewardship. The Russian plan includes having significant influence on the price of key commodities, like oil, natural gas, and rare earths. Check out the location of Ukraine's resources, and one begins to see that Russian conduct has a lot to do with controlling those resources, not just a country's politics. After all, what is political control for?
