It turns out that over the past year the number of Russian dollar billionaires has grown from 110 to 125 people. This is the highest result in the history of the list of the world’s richest businessmen.
For some - a great war of liberation, and for others - a great way to improve their financial situation. It always has been, it always will be. The only nuance is that the Russian authorities are trying hard to sell people a non-existent legend about the struggle for “Russian peace”, while they themselves are making money at the expense of Russia and realizing their geopolitical ambitions.
At the same time I can say that a historical event has happened: ordinary people and oligarchs have for once converged in their views. Everyone has caught the essence of what is happening, and now everyone is making money on the war as much as they can. Some people are raking in whole factories, while others are waiting for a military payment on their cards.
It is the state grandfathers who are frantic with the feeling of inevitably approaching death, that’s why they organize senseless bloodbath. Everyone else is just making money. So the war in Ukraine is not a war of liberation, but of enrichment.
