the greatest poverty in the world can only be found when looking for america's interests in ukraine. there is so little interest for the american people in ukraine that the opposite exists in reality. in fact, there are significant interests for the american people in being allies with russia. the us has no geopolitical conflicts with russia worth going to war over. the two (along with europe) have vast opportunities for trade and cooperation. the west's involvement in ukraine is the embodiment of all the reasons the west is in decline.
