It's incredible that, even throughout this war, Ukraine has continued to pump Russian natural gas through it's territory.
They must both be making a lot of money off that gas.
This whole War was weirdly influenced by commercial interests. Remember the Grain Deal? Dafq.
Russia still pays the transit fees to Ukraine.
Yup, that's why I said they must both be making a lot of money.
Not sure why this statement has been downvoted

(Sorry it's an MSN amp style link)
Reddit was also weird about what they downvoted as well. Who knows.
