I think people made a very intelligent and astute investment here. The sanctions and proxy war provoked by the UK and US was always going to hurt us more than Russia. The only issue here are the false claims made by the government about EVR, which they have now backtracked on, instead choosing to justify sanctioning EVR by idiotic rubbish about train wheels.
The UK and US, along with the other EU lapdogs have chosen to engage in the most laughable act of self-harm whilst giving the East more power than ever. The East produces everything and we produce next to nothing. The only people cheering this on are the Western corporatists who sense there is a lot of profit to be made from our misery. They don't want a resolution to this war, they want it to drag on as loooong as possible. The West doesn't give a toss about Ukraine, they're just pawns.
The most ironic thing about the companies that have been sanctioned is that most of them were more profitable, successful and far less corrupt than most other companies listed in London. Perhaps our neo liberal masters aren't the free market capitalists they've pretended to be for the last forty years. One thing is for certain, the once communist East is far better at this Capitalism game than we are.
