In a video (21 sec), Russian state propagandist Sergei Mardan explains that the main purpose of war is looting of enemy’s territories so that “we live better than them”.

Then he adds “I think this is the goal of the war as laid by Putin”. Note the word “war” is beeped out because in Russian political correctness code it should be called “special military operation”.

    Tell you what it certainly is a “special” military operation considering that it’s taken over a year, and at this point requires conscription… An awful lot like if Russia had started a war

    IDK why this should be clarified… but yeah that’s basically the objective of war, or you can establish a proxy government like the US do and get tons of money and resources out of it.

      You’re not getting a lot of useful resources immediately out of a war torn region with destroyed infrastructure. It’s not like Ukraine has a ton of money sitting around. Russia is already like 10x the size of Ukraine anyway. What could they possibly get out of such a tiny region?
