    no way is that going to happen after the war everyone is going to be scrambling to loot ukraine to get back the money they lent them

      Oh absolutely, I'm certain of this. That's why it would shake my worldview if that didn't happen and instead the US massively invested in the Ukrainian people.

        if it helps I think people might loose money trying to loot the country. If they try and treat it like the eastern european goldrush in the 90's they will likely find the rewards far more meagre than expected. In the 90's there was tons of soviet infrastructure that could be got for a litteral steal now everything worth having is gone or destroyed in the war

        it's more India in 1940 than india when it had kings who couldn't fight a war to save their lives and palaces of easily portable gold
