US-born British financier, activist and author Bill Browder says Western banks earning record profits in Russia are making blood money and must be stopped. Browder, who calls himself the "No. 1 enemy" of Vladimir Putin and has campaigned for years to freeze Russian assets in the West, warns that while funding Ukraines fight against Russia is expensive, a war would cost 100 times more.

(4,488 posts)1. The west needs to listen
to Browder. He's been sounding the alarm about Ruzzia for many years now and is absolutely correct. We ignore Bill Browder at our own peril.
Stop funding Ruzzia!!!!!!
Sadly though, this reminds me of certain American financiers who helped fund the Nazis into power, until WWII broke out.
Thank you TT, for posting.

Ignoring Browder on anything related to Russia is a perilous path.

more obvious that someone on this side is benefitting financially by the screw not being turned more on Russia.
It only prolongs the war and slows the end of Putin.
