The oligarchs have no where to run to..their asset confiscated...they better tell Putin the weak dictator to retreat now that there is still little chance before his economy crashes finally.. They want to invade and conquer Ukraine for their selfish benefit.. Putin is only trying so hard to please those Soviet buzzos who are very corrupt.. Let them all rot in Russia..look how fast everyone is cancelling them.. |
