    Ukraine / Russia

    There is twitter account called Forward Observer that is saying there will likely be a reduction of at least 50% of Ukrainian crop yields, I think that may be optimistic. Ukraine would normally be planting within 30-45 days. Also even if they were able to plant /harvest with the Black Sea...

    Ukraine / Russia

    Don't know if this was a long time coming and/or the result of sanctions, just found it interesting. Is it the beginning of the end of the petrodollar? https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/petrodollar-cracks-saudi-arabia-considers-accepting-yuan-chinese-oil-sales

    Ukraine / Russia

    I don't believe that Ukraine started this either, Russian expansionism is certainly something to be concerned about after Ukraine who is next Moldovia, Georgia, the Caucasus region in general, which could change their relationship with Iran if the mullahs felt like they were messing in their...

    I would have thought that there was likely some level of buy in from those guys. It would be interesting to look at money flows and see what they were doing 3-9 months out.

    I remember reading "The Third World War" by Sir John Hackett. If I recall correctly NATO doctrine revolved around anti-tank teams. I also rremember the first time I shot a LAW, that was kinda fun.

    Thank you What you describe indicates that none of this was well thought out, spur of the moment decision ? Something pushed Putin to the edge?

    Ukraine / Russia

    Not really understanding what his objective is this is hard to say, however if he makes the West blink, if he keeps the Ukraine out of EU influence he may well feel like he reached his goals. I still think it is China that plays this whole thing like a fiddle

    Ukraine / Russia

    One other thing I meant to say. It has been announced that China and Russia are banning fertilizer export until June 2022. Urea cost have gone from $600 to $900. Wheat prices along with corn is rapidly going higher. Between higher inflation surging fuel cost and now an drastic increase in...

    Ukraine / Russia

    I believe that #2, 3 seem most likely to me. Regardless of outcome what are the future(5-10 year) ramifications? Germany ditches its aggressive energy plans and brings its nuclear capability back on line. Also retools its foreign policy i.e. increasing its defense budget perhaps even beyond...
