Contains a lot to do with Ukraine war deeper layers. Kraut's own summary was: The war in Ukraine is overly "depoliticised". That meaning, people exclusively look at it from a geopolitical lense. Often refusing to acknowledge internal political developments within Ukraine, and mainly applying...

"Kraut" somewhat uncannily and coincidentally (one day after I made this larger post from which I quote) gave this quite in-depth analysis on the same phenomenon I summarised, but from a geopolitical international relations sense (rather than economic that I premised mine on). Suffice to say...
