Zelensky’s former spokesperson. 
Both China (20+ million people lost) and Vietnam suffered heavily under Japanese occupation, and Kazakhstan (like Ukraine) was literally part of the USSR. Gotta love how these pathetic fascists attempt to rewrite history. 
Oh, I believe Kazakhstan is well plundered and looted by the West, just look at, e.g., the ownership structure of some major oil development companies. And I give this specific example because of how illustrative it is, with energy production being one of the drivers of Kazakhstan’s economy in the first 30 years of independence, similar evidence can be found in Kazakh agriculture, aluminium, copper, etc. development and refinement, and other industries. Kazakhstan is doing well because its leadership let foreign capitalists loot and plunder, not in spite of it.
Oh yeah, I didn’t mean they escaped unscathed, just that things aren’t as bad as they could be. Still pretty bad though.
I guess what I was mainly trying to say is that the difference between Kazakhstan and, e.g., Baltic states is not the degree of plundering but rather what was being plundered. It is much easier to be plundered beneficially when you’re so rich in resources and poor in manufacturing than vice versa.
Yeah, that’s a very solid point. You’re absolutely right, I was just making a silly joke, but it is important to not forget the actual material conditions of these places.
