    Can to just consider what you said here?

    It’s better that bullets, missiles, and drones kill people and destroy infrastructure than it is for Ukraine to devalue their currency.

    Is that really the position you hold?

        Got it, so how many ukrainians should die in order to prevent a point of inflation?

          I’m not talking about “should” anything, and I think controlling inflation is a factor in conducting the war effectively, but I think Zelensky has demonstrated repeatedly and quite explicitly that any amount of Ukrainians dying is acceptable when the alternative is him losing his position and/or the favor of his western masters.
