At the start of this year, US defense companiesโ share indices fluctuated around and sometimes below zero, but after Russiaโs special operation began those shares jumped sharply.
The Biden administrationโs "Ukrainian method" is just a "good story" for US realpolitik national interests without taking into account any humanitarian considerations, the article says.
