    irrelevant part of the world

    Ukraine grows a lot of grain. If the countries it exports grain to don’t get that grain, millions starve. Starvation will greatly contribute to regional instability in already fragile states. We’ve already seen a series of coups in Africa and if Ukraine and Russia keep fighting, we will see more and more of them, each one more violent and desperate than the rest. We’ve seen millions of refugees from Syria before, get ready to see a hundred million in the years to come.

        Oh I’m sorry. Yeah, Afghanistan is a place where both empires and dreams go to die. My father in law fought in Soviet-Afghan war and hasn’t stopped drinking since.
