(22,656 posts)Sounds too good to be true. Are we sure it wasn't a preemptive move on the part of Russia to minimize suspicion of collusion? Or is that too "next-level" thinking?
Whatever it was, it's become a lose/lose proposition for both of them and that, ultimately makes it a good thing.
I hope Zuck lands, permanently, in the thickest fog of war possible.

I am beyond appalled to learn how many pension plans were heavily invested in Russian companies!

WHY were they investing in Russia?????
I sure hope a full investigation is underway!
Won't it be enlightening to see how many entities return to biz as normal when this war is over?
