So Putin's plan is to wreck the Wests economy

[-] Thrillhouse@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

I’m probably wrong, but I’ve been speculating if the plan is:

  1. US imposes tariffs on its most valuable trading partners
  2. War in Ukraine “ends”; US stops sending weapons; Ukraine goes to Russia; US possibly threatens to pull out of NATO to accomplish this
  3. Tariffs stay in place for traditional US allies; US helps Russia rebuild economically by becoming its new best good trading buddy, tariff free of course.

Crab-bucket economics to go with crab-bucket foreign policy

Post-Soviet Russia is such a fuck-up of a nation-state that they only way they can look good is by dragging everyone else down to their level.
