Remember, when the USSR broke up, the former member countries took many resources with them.

Access to numerous resources including nuke reactors, natural gas channels, access to precious metals and some had more accessible oil reserves. Putin won't stop until he gets them all back or is killed in the process. Not too mention the productive people

1. P-p believed that the country was the central authority.

The USSR's central authority spent the money harvested from the population. It owned the output of their labor. The central authority owns what it built.

When it's said that Russia's claimed the Zaprizhzhi'a nuclear power plant as Rosatom property, well, d'uh. It was built by the USSR, centered in Moscow. It's Moscow's. Usurpers took it for a while.

There's not a huge leap between corporatism and socialism writ historical.

This isn't far from the claim that Russia's claim to the UNSC vote might be disputed. It claimed the USSR's vote on the UNSC because, well, it was the *heir* of the USSR. "Heir" is economic.

We agreed that Moscow was heir to the USSR's 'property'. A seat on the UNSC is valuable; we gave it to them for less than a kopek, in 3/2022 money.
