It is a question that many people will have asked themselves: what is happening in the world?
I haven’t written for a long time, I do it today because before writing an article I think a lot about what I’m going to write, I don’t like to be trivial with those who read me.
I will not be here to denounce the current situation because I think putin is to be condemned not today but for more than 22 years when he came to power and established a dictatorial regime based on the trust of Russian oligarchs.
The Russian oligarchs are only interested in money and Putin instead of power (obviously also money because without that you can not finance anything), since world governments are trying to freeze the assets and properties of the oligarchs, how will they behave accordingly with their master Putin?
Options market since the beginning of this week is discounting the fact that from mid-April the conflict will calm down, it will be true but above all at what price for the citizens of the world?
I have read a lot in these last 2/3 weeks in particular since the Olympic Games ended in China and the word that most emerged was geopolitics, yes exactly because it would seem that Putin wants with the excuse of Ukraine to refound the former Soviet Union.
Is Russia really as strong as it seems? Yes, it is true, it has control of gas and many raw materials but if the whole world isolated this continent how could it survive economically?
I think that Putin thinking that he is proving to be the strongest man in the world is risking making a great mistake not only towards all nations but above all towards his people.

It is true that being a dictator Russian citizens are very afraid of him, also because as we have seen in the past Vladimir does not wait long before eliminating his dissidents, not only does he have the KGB (I still call him that) but several militias (hidden like the Wagner group and the military unit 29155) that do some work all over the world but the question is: Vladimir, but if your people rebelled against your power how do you plan to stop millions of Russian citizens?
As long as we talk about individuals (heroes who had the courage to rebel against this system) like Litvinenko, Anna Politkovskaya and some other dead Russians, Putin will have no problems but if he is financially isolated from the world and attacked in the future by his Russian people how will he think about managing the situation?
In history many dictators who have abused their power too much have been eventually ousted by their own citizens and what if this time after 22 years of power it went like this?
Only time will tell who will be right, now I want to make a brief analysis on the financial markets.
The indices have had a correction but a recovery in particular this week since the war between Russia and Ukraine broke out, the financial markets seem quite crazy , it is very difficult to “read” these situations especially if you are not an expert, you have to pay close attention to the outflow (14 billion dollars) of investment funds that invest in European stocks, but in history we have never seen such a phenomenon, where will these flows of money go?
The highest odds are on the American market and some funds invest in the Australian market considered safer than the European one indirectly involved in the Russia/Ukraine war.
In Europe the biggest fear is this high inflation and at the same time economic stagnation, what will our bankers do and what are they doing to counter this situation?
I don’t think much, I would like to know if these “experts” have any idea of the damage they are causing with their monetary policies to raise rates for example or to continue not to support a social class that is becoming poorer and poorer. Someone told me one day but if people don’t rebel against the system how do you think it can change?
I replied to this person who was completely right, personally I have been fighting the system for years because I find it corrupt and dirty, it seems to me to be in a world where only one word counts: money.
As long as we continue to chase money desperately, I do not believe that the problems of this world will be solved, I read many words to fight poverty but if you look at the budgets of Russia, the United States and China you see how many billions of dollars are destined to the purchase of weapons of war. Just do a Google search and I think you will be very perplexed…
I conclude this very long article with a reflection, in 2020 covid appeared, 2021 was the year of vaccines and 2022 is the year of war. Why do you think world governments don’t intervene directly in a conflict and let Ukraine be invaded by Russia?
Who has an interest in not intervening directly?
Are you aware that once the assets of the oligarchs are seized, once the war is over, they will be back in their possession because they move billions of dollars?
Are human lives more important to world governments than money?
