    Ehhhhh. The Biden admin started the Ukraine war basically. This whole melt down is mostly due to the sanctions. Along with the fed raising interest rates

      I'd say fifty fifty blame. The neolib system always created the kindling that would lead to nations such as Russia wanting to break away from western rule and domination by foreign capitol. For Ukraine I'd say blame goes all the way back to euromaidan and then now with Biden dragging this into a longterm proxy war has more or less signaled the hard decline of a neoliberal world order (especially since Venezuela is about to make bank selling oil at a premium to all the capitalist western countries now and will hopefully use this to better negotiate from a position of strength in the future).

        The thing is. Russia didn't want to break away.

        American and European Russia phobia pushed them into a corner. It's been 30 years of Russia trying to get welcomed into the neo liberal club. And they just couldn't swallow their hate for the russians. Maybe American big oil also wanted Russia out of Europe also.

        The euromaiden was a western coupe that in the years following Biden was involved with removing a prosecutor and most likely involved way earlier

          I think the big thing was partly maintaining that cold war fronting against the communists (even though Russia was no longer communist) as well as trying to force Russia into similar situations as other former soviet states by being exploited as cheap labor and resources by the west. Also yeah euromaidan involved lots of individuals such as Biden and is another part of US foreign policy leading to a future hellscape.
