I am one who thinks that this war has a lot to do with resources. Not as much capturing the Ukrainian resources (mineral, oil, gas, food, water,... ) but rather about not allowing those resources to actually being put to use by Europe in collaboration with Ukraine. But there is a lot more about the war:

As i said, can't agree with such point of view. russia has surplus of resources: oil, gas, gold, most of Rare earth metals, food, animals, wood and a lot of other valuable things. So i doubt it would need another bunch of resources in Ukraine.

And Russia (at least didn't) consider Europe as enemy, so again, I don't see any reason to start this war to not allow Europe to get some ukrainian resources. It's pure ideological crusade against "corrupted russians" (ukrainians).

Here interesting moment:

"Банкир Пугачёв не раз говорил в интервью, что ещё 10 лет назад Путина интересовали только 2 темы – Украина и Газпром. Всё остальное было ему неинтересно."

Translation: Banker Pugachev told in interview that 10 years ago Putin was interested into two things - Ukraine and Gasprom. Everything else were ignored.

@icopress told me that some bitcointalk users want to donate to Ukraine army trough me. For now, I'm mostly trying to help to Ukrainian Volunteer Army (УДА - Українська Добровольча Армія). Because unlike Armed Forces of Ukraine, it's is pure volunteer army, guys fighting without any salary or provision from the government.

I've alredy provided to them some consumables and one thermal image camera

If you want that their mortar squad would kill more russians, you can donate here. I will pin only BTC address at first, if you want to donate through other crypto, please PM me.

P.S: We have already ordered one Mavic drone, but such things is just a consumables at war, so will be glad for any donations. Depends on their size and my own budget I will buy a drone, or thermal vision camera because guys has only this white Lahoux from me. One thermal camera for 32 soldiers Sad

If you have a drone or thermal/night vision and do not need it, you can also donate it to UVA, I'll cover all shipment duties.
