In Economy, International

This week, in a conversation with Zain Rasa of Germany’s AcTVism Munich, I discussed the Ukrainian government’s rampant neoliberalism and its efforts to persuade Western corporations that Ukraine is now ‘open for business’.

Because Ukraine is now entirely dependent on Western support for its survival, and because Western corporations will demand extremely favourable terms in exchange for the risk of investing in a country that is at war with Russia, Zelensky’s attempts to attract Western corporate investment will ultimately result in Ukraine’s economy being pillaged. This is exactly what happened to Russia during the Yeltsin era.
