Now, Zelensky is essentially demanding $750 billion for reconstruction of war-torn areas of Ukraine, that are held by the Russians. LOL.
...
He'll probably get it. Ukraine, as an artifact of being an 8+ year playground of ZioNazi corruption, has a loooooot of dirt on a loooooot of globalist types. Some truly grotesque stuff too as these people have bizarre tastes that most normal people cannot even imagine.
Like you say also, at this stage in the monetary system implosion any excuse to print up and hand out trillions of dollars is welcome and necessary.
You see the difference:
Zelensky is evaluating the cost of reconstruction and asking for aid (demanding? seriously?) Adolf Putin is simply grabbing the money from their citizens by banning them from transferring it abroad. I wonder what some of the people posting here would feel if their government decided to impose such a measure. But it is ok because it is happening for the citizens of the RF... no problem.
Well, gold is not accepted now either. Even if you "win", you loose.

ps An interesting article about how the Ukrainians sold two French Caesar howitzers to the Russians.
Thanks for further discussing this point, gives me the occasion of being more precise:

Funny that being from the RF you are accusing some other military of corruption. If half of the money that the RF dedicates to the army was actually correctly spent, they would "liberating" Berlin to build another wall. Oh... and funny too, if half of the capabilities that RF claims were true, they would be marching in NY. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9i47sgi-V4
