Today, I watched this interesting video about Ukraine’s oil & gas geology; of course the comments are worth browsing:

It’s interesting to me to see in the comments that the expansion of NATO to the east isn’t more commonly recognized as the direct cause for the SMO/war in Ukraine, let alone the stated goals of the west for regime change and eventual Balkanization of Russia.

EDIT Addition:

“Who rules East Europe commands the Heartland”

The resources in Ukraine aren’t trivial, but what seems apparent is the Heartland Theory is still in play, a struggle to control Eurasia and thus control the world.  The WEFers can’t have world dominion without control of the Heartland, but it looks like they will be SOL on this round, at least.
