Hi @anaeusrex2014  - Regarding economic effect… being invaded always comes with a bleak economic impact, but the structuring of the lend-lease agreement with the US effectively means that every item used by the Ukraine and destroyed by Russia during the war is free… so as long as Ukraine fights the invaders, cost burden is not on their people. As far as the loss of humanity, huge quantities of are being lost on both sides. This is a tragedy for this region, as the population was already imploding. Demographics is a huge problem, only becoming worse for both nations by this idiotic invasion. The irony is that the invasion has caused expatriate Ukrainians to return [even from 1st world nations] & fight for their former home land, without pay… it is a strange situation, where Ukraine first encouraged it, but is now reducing the pool by increasing requirements, since more are returning to fight than can be efficiently absorbed into the Ukrainian military. Contrast this with Russia, where my friends are not willing to return to fight in Russia, pay rates are increasing, only small numbers of prisoners seem willing to fight with pay & amnesty… and even with a 1:1 death ratio, this could offer significant long term issues. Regarding economic collapse, the fact Ukraine still exists, after a supposed first world army invaded from 3 sides, makes me doubt the collapse. Most in the US expected Ukraine to fall in 3 days, and this continues. Ukraine must retrieve their land in order to have infrastructure to rebuild, so the war will continue for some time. As far as the US occupational areas in Syria, you will find little disagreement with me, with the exception that the Kurdish government is the recipient funds from those reserves. Legitimate sovereignty of a people shows when they seek independence to run their own affairs, not merely cede the land they Governor to a foreign invader.
