    Ok, I’m with you on most of your points but you are mistaken in thinking Ukraine is a poor country. They are literally the bread basket of eastern Europe. That’s one of the biggest reasons Putin is so intent on taking it.

      Bread basket does not mean rich. Look at the gdp numbers per capita, they are shockingly poor.
