Ukraine’s European Allies Increase Purchases of Russian Fuel. The EU Continues to Send Billions to Moscow, Feeding Its War Economy

sfg.media has to be a credible source, right? right? same as trustmebro.media .

Questionable source aside...

No, Europe is not "sending" money to Russia. They are paying for a good. One that had actual production costs, which -thanks to sanctions- are rediculously close to what they get for their oil.

When employees are paid rediculously low wages for what they produce for their employer that they only accept because the alternative would be starving people seem to understand the concept and don't hallucinate how someone is "sending" those employees money.

But when countries buy Russian oil at rediculous low prices (or through intermediaries that themselves got it at a discount price) because Russia is forced to sell it anyway as stopping production would be even worse for them (as in: it's expensive and complicated to restart once stopped) that concept is suddenly lost and that oil seem to magically drop into Russia's lap for free with a purchase of it creating a 100% profit margin...somehow...
