Continuois war is not good for anybody. Nobody ever really wins a war.

Are you kidding?

It's been GREAT for the war machine - the MIC.

It's been great for incompetent pols - to distract, deflect, and amp up the fear factor.

Whole lotta people are getting rich off this new gusher of seigniorage. How can you tell? One way, the fast pace at which the dollar's relative-value is dropping (real-time inflation, from the gusher of New (fake) Money.

We know how it ends - with currency collapse. That's because we've read things that Diaper Joe Biden, Ma Yellin and "professor" Stephanie Kelton (who wrote a book promoting Magic Moneyprinting Theory) have never read.

Lavrov’s Interview With Newsweek Concisely Summarized Russia’s Positions​

This might be the first time that average Americans read a top Russian official’s views without a filter.

It’s rare nowadays for Russian officials to give interviews to Western media, both because the first suspect that their words won’t be accurately reported while the second fear being “canceled”, which is why it’s so important that Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov just gave a written interview to Newsweek. He concisely summarized his country’s positions on the Ukrainian Conflict, multipolarity, and the US’ upcoming presidential election, which will be reviewed.

Regarding the first, he reaffirmed the official position that Kiev should comply with Putin’s ceasefire request from over the summer and that Moscow wants to address the root causes of this conflict, not just freeze it for some time. The spring 2022 draft peace treaty could form the basis for resuming talks with Ukraine if the latter revokes its decree on banning them, though some details would have to change. He also warned against letting Ukraine use Western long-range weapons deep inside of Russia.

As for the second, Lavrov emphasized the regional dimension of multipolarity by referencing several leading blocs before describing BRICS as a model of multilateral diplomacy and confirming the importance of the UN as a forum for aligning the interests of all countries. Respect for one another’s interests, a greater say in global governance for developing countries, and mutual cooperation are considered the driving forces behind this trend. China also shares Russia’s views on this too, he said.
