>Fuck off Gunther. Words cant describe how fucking shameless it is to claim that Russia colonized all of its territories and must return the land to the natives. What sort of twisted meaning of "colony" is that?<Russia never did such things that Europeans and Americans did. It is really shameless for the westerners to spell Russian history as a brutal imperislism as it is simply not true. The whole idea that Russia right now, after the USSR fell and the horrible 90s happened, is somehow an "empire" that occupies nations living within its borders is just amazing, without even considering the political entities who are making these claims (the West), and the irony implied by that. You're nothing but a cocksucker of the "Free Nations of Postrussia Forum" and other glowie NGOs. So what happens when people actually decide that Russia must be decolonized? Look at all of the maps that these glowie NGOs draw up. Various maps of Russia, with entirely different flags and borders, which bear no representation of actual ethnic boundaries of any people, and no relation to their tradition or culture. This is pure wet dream psychosis by imperialists and their lackeys like you.

Basically the video demonstrates how the """veteran protests""" that also cucked Poroshenko over decentralization got way bigger in 2019 with 'no to capitulation' protests to the point it allowed the paramilitary units to defy civilian government
This looks bad because it shows who the problem with the Minsk process was. Why the fuck would Donbass hold elections under this government and why would Russia let them control the border? There's no rule of law lmao. Not even the 'pro Ukraine' side was united, let alone the country. Where's the democratic peace promised by Europe?

Instead, it will be focusing on “arming Poland with more modern weapons”. As explosive as the announcement is, it is unlikely to change the situation in Ukraine in the short term.>What matters more is the language. It is incredibly telling that president Andrzej Duda described Kyiv as behaving “like a drowning person clinging to anything available”, potentially bringing down those attempting to save them. It sounds like an acceptance that Ukraine cannot win this war, at the current scale and intensity, and that Europe cannot continue to supply it.>Almost every commentator has linked Poland’s decision with the ongoing dispute over the sale of cheap Ukrainian grain within the EU. While there is some truth to this version of events, the more relevant point is that Poland is running out of materiel to send. After Washington and London, Warsaw has been the biggest military donor since the beginning of the full-scale invasion. >Poland has already given virtually all of its legacy Soviet-era platforms and military vehicles, in addition to a sizable chunk of its more modern equipment, including over 60 of its Leopard 1 tanks and two dozen Leopard 2s.>This generosity is coming to an end, in part because the cupboard is now bare. Since the war began in February, Poland has had one eye firmly and nervously on the Suwałki Gap – the thin strip of land separating Poland, Belarus, and the Russian nuclear fleet in the Kaliningrad enclave.

good post from stupidpol:
I have a theory that Europe's fortunes are directly negatively linked to the fortunes of Poland. Poland comes into being, and the Carolingian age ends. Poland falls apart, and you get the 12th century renaissance. Casimir brings Poland back, and the Black Death shows up. They unite with Lithuania and rise to predominance in eastern Europe, and you get the general crisis of the late middle ages. Reach their peak in the 1610s and the Thirty Years War kicks off the general crisis of the seventeenth century in style. The Thirty Years War doesn't end until the Deluge starts, and things don't really start getting better until after Sobieski dies and the Rzeczpospolita enters uninterrupted decline. The eighteenth century sees the simultaneous decline and fall of the PLC and the beginnings of Europe's rise to predominance. The first partition is in 1772, and promptly the American Revolution starts. The second and third are in 1793 and 1795, and promptly the French rip through Europe's order. Independent Poland then doesn't exist at all in the nineteenth century, and Europe and its offshoots conquer the world as the industrial revolution lifts them to new heights and socialism develops into a signficant force. Then, disaster: some idiots bring Poland back after WWI, and you get the general malaise of the interwar period culminating in the Great Depression, the Nazis, and ultimately WWII. Afterwards, the Soviets take it upon themselves to contain the Polish menace, and so, while Europe doesn't do well, it also doesn't do too badly. Unfortunately, the heroic Soviet effort to protect the world results in the Polish curse destroying the Soviet Union. Shock therapy mitigates Poland's effects for a while, but that runs out and they join the EU, which immediately stops pretending to be anything other than a vessel for neoliberalism. Disastrously, the EU accelerates the spread of the contamination, and it takes less than twenty years of Polish influence for Europe to abandon even the pretence of independence and become an undisguised American vassal.
The upshot is this: the survival of humanity requires that we destroy Poland lest it destroy us.

<Three members of the US House of Representatives have spoken to Syrian Druze leader Sheikh Hikmat Al Hajari in a show of bipartisan support from Washington, as protests against Syrian President Bashar Al Assad continue.
>Republicans Joe Wilson, chairman of the Middle East subcommittee on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, French Hill and Democrat Brendan Boyle held calls with the spiritual leader this week.
>The engagements come as protests in the Druze-majority city of Suweida, which hearken back to 2011's unprecedented displays of anti-regime sentiment, pass the one-month mark.
>Mr Boyle “reaffirmed bipartisan congressional support for the peaceful protests in Suweida and Deraa” during his conversation with Sheikh Al Hajari, he told The National.
>“As the co-chair of the Friends of a Free, Stable, and Democratic Syria Caucus, I enjoyed the opportunity to speak briefly with Sheikh Hikmat Al Hajari on Tuesday … I urge my other colleagues in the House and Senate to do the same,” he added.
>Demonstrations broke out after authorities more than doubled fuel prices in a marked change to Mr Al Assad’s civil war strategy of placating minority sects.
>A representative from Mr Hill's office told The National that during his conversation with Sheikh Al Hajari, they discussed “the frustrations of the local people … and how the Sheikh is concerned about their safety”.
>Sheikh Al Hajari “also reported that the Assad regime is cutting off access to water and electricity, and talked about the nightly Captagon trafficking … and he's concerned over the impact Captagon has on [Suweida's] young people”, the representative added.
>The calls, enabled by the Washington-based Syrian Emergency Task Force, felt like “a conversation between friends”, the group's executive director Mouaz Moustafa told The National.
>“Now Sheikh Al Hajari has had higher-level US engagements than Bashar Al Assad,” he added.
>Mr Moustafa, who sat in on the calls, said Sheikh Al Hajari expressed fears to the congressmen that “Iranian-backed militias would perpetrate more violence” in the protest-rattled governorate, and expressed the “importance [for him], as a spiritual leader, to ensure demonstrations remain peaceful”.
>Last week, Assad regime security forces injured at least three people after firing on demonstrators outside a local government building, a watchdog said.
>“For the people of Suweida, whether Druze or Bedouin or Muslim or Christian, [the phone calls] show the world is watching,” Mr Moustafa added.
>The pre-eminent spiritual body for Druze people in Suweida is split on the protests.
>Two of the body’s three head clerics, including Sheikh Al Hajari and Sheikh Hamoud Al Hannawi, have offered their support for demonstrations against the regime. But the spiritual body's third cleric, Sheikh Youssef Jarbouh, maintains a pro-Assad stance, claiming that “Suweida will not deviate from the decision of the Syrian state”, according to research from the US-based Washington Institute for Near East Policy.https://www.thenationalnews.com/world/us-news/2023/09/21/us-politicians-speak-to-druze-leader-sheikh-al-hajari-as-anti-assad-protests-continue/ No.1604235

>Kiev said that Ukraine does not need old Mirage 2000 fighters
>Warsaw, 21 st. RIA Novosti. Advisor to the Ukrainian Air Force Command, Yuri Ignat, stated that the Ukrainian Air Force does not need Mirage 2000 fighters because it is an obsolete model."Any help is important to us, but not in the "Mirage 2000" version … today we cannot afford to take everything from the air fleet, which is irrational and exhausts the work of our people. We must focus on one type, a maximum of two aircraft multi-tasking… "Mirage 2000" is an outdated model," Ignat said during the briefing, which was broadcast on the UkrinformTV YouTube channel.
Earlier, the head of the French Ministry of Defense, Sebastian Lecornu, confirmed that France was conducting talks with Ukraine regarding the possible training of Ukrainian pilots in Poland. The minister also recalled that France has repeatedly said that "there is no taboo" regarding possible deliveries of military aircraft to Kiev.
The French Air Force currently has 96 Dasso Rafal I 95 Dasso Mirage 2000 fighters. Another 40 fighters belong to the French Navy. In the French armed forces there is a program to replace the obsolete "Mirages", which are gradually being phased out, with the more modern Dasso"Rafal". 12 decommissioned Dasso "Mirage" fighters, according to French military specialists, may be transferred to Ukraine. Denmark will donate 19 F-16 fighters to Ukraine

<The antiwar movement mantra was: "Afghanistan, where the world's richest country rains bombs on the world's poorest country." Poor fools. They should never have tried to beat me at this game. What about, "Afghanistan, where the world's most open society confronts the world's most closed one"? "Where American women pilots kill the men who enslave women." "Where the world's most indiscriminate bombers are bombed by the world's most accurate ones." "Where the largest number of poor people applaud the bombing of their own regime." I could go on. (I think No. 4 may need a little work.) But there are some suggested contrasts for the "doves" to paste into their scrapbook. Incidentally, when they look at their scrapbooks they will be able to reread themselves saying things like, "The bombing of Kosovo is driving the Serbs into the arms of Milosevic".https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/346395-there-was-a-time-in-my-life-when-i-didPerhaps Western Leftists are due for another raking over the coals for their constant helplessness in the face of crisis after crisis, and constant puritanical

in their own country while German workers come here and enjoy it. Social/unemployment welfare here is 150-200€, what is it in Germany? My grandmother, after a lifetime of working gets 300€ pension. What is the minimum pension in Germany?
Don't talk to me about inequality. Come here and see what inequality is. Owners of companies park expensive German cars, while people dig through garbage. Even that, in Germany you get 0.25€ for an empty bottle, here a quarter of that. Meaning that a struggling person has to collect 4x as many bottles as a struggling person in Germany, to earn 1€.

Why are Asian immigrant parents known as hard-asses in the US? Is it because they are all honor-bound bugmen who only know how to work, do math and play piano? No, it's because they know that if their kids aren't the best, they won't be even considered for jobs, schools, etc.
Look at the MENA immigrants in Europe. Despite the media bias and sensationalist (racist) articles, they are (in general) some of the hardest working, honest people in Europe.

That's true in relation to Western Europe, but it isn't true in relation to refugees, minorities, Roma, etc in Eastern Europe. The same dynamics you're describing among Easterners in the West also exist among minorities and vulnerable groups in the East. I'm not trying to deny the colonial relationship between West and East in Europe, but it's simply not true to pretend that these dynamics aren't reproduced inside the East itself in relation to people and countries even lower in the world-imperialist pecking order. Let's not forget that Eastern European countries ultimately occupy a middling position in this system, and like the middle class in most capitalist countries they seem to cling to what little privilege they have (and the system that grants it to them) pretty fiercely. No doubt this has something to with why Poland, the Baltic states etc have been the most enthusiastically pro-NATO since they were admitted.
Ultimately you're right that chauvinism among colonized people isn't as destructive as it is among the colonizer, but in the case of Eastern Europe this chauvinism (against Russians, non-Europeans, etc) is itself being deployed in service of the colonial order.

>minorities, Minorities generally have protected status, parliamentary representation, etc. so actual "recognised" don't have it that hard. Remember, the shit in Ukraine started in part because Ukraine government removed these protections Russian minorities enjoyed. Similar shit would happen in any Eastern Euro country if the government did the same.
>RomaRacism against Roma is a problem. But unlike MENA refugees and immigrants, Roma don't wish to integrate, but want to live on their own, separate from society, following their own laws and traditions. I respect that fully, but it does make it harder for them to be "accepted". For example, Roma rarely send their kids to school (in part due to the racism they'd experience), dooming them to a life of crime and manual labour, which in turn helps perpetuate the racism and "otherness". It's a vicious cycle and I wish I had the solution. In my opinion Roma should be given an autonomous region or two within Eastern Europe, if integration isn't what they want. I can't do much except remind people to use the word "Roma" instead of "gypsy" and explain why Roma live the way they do and that it has nothing to do with "who they are".

Daily reminder that whenever Westoids see an ethnic or religious crisis in the Second or Third world their solution is always balkanization or ethnic autonomy.

Minority populations in Eastern Europe generally are suppressed and never given political representation, Blacks in the US are never given self rule and instead were brutally disenfranchised through a century of terrorism, and lately in Pro-West Ukraine nobody has ever talked about giving Russians living in East Ukraine autonomy or greater say in governance; no solution is acceptable to Kyiv except violent military conquest of this regions and disenfranchisement of its Russian majority population

Ukraine gets stuck on battlefield or starts going a bit backwards then now they finally give some of weapons just enough so they can hold that position but not enough to move forward. It ends up that both sides have all these guys fighting making 0 progress that the battle lines hardly change in months. The west never wanted a peace agreement before this war in my view because then Russians don't die and their weapons are not wasted. The west wanted this war to happen badly and refused to allow a peace deal at any point. The west wants this war to go on for a long time without any peace agreement
If you disagree that is fine. I see it as them using Ukrainians as a meat grinder to waste Russian weapons and kill maximum Russians. Same as Palestine uses bottle rockets and balloons to waste Israeli weapons. The little shit Palestine sends cost less than what Israel has to send each time to destroy it. They know this doesn't beat Israel just waste Israel money.

Then they and their Western backers got high sniffing their own farts and proceeded to bash their heads against Russian lines for months. The slow drip of new weapons probably is designed to prolong the conflict as much as possible. If they had given tanks, F-16s, HIMARS, ATACMS, etc immediately then Russia would have escalated in kind and the war probably would have ended much faster. Maybe the Ukrainians could have pulled something more impressive off if they had all this stuff at the beginning of the war, but Russia considers this an existential question and likely would have tried again even if their entire initial attack had been repelled. However once their war industries and reserves are mobilized the result is inevitable. Ukraine simply can't keep this up for as long as Russia can, they don't have the manpower or materiel. The only question is how they lose (ie decisive defeats or slow attrition) and how long it takes.

<Polish PM tells Ukraine's Zelenskiy 'never to insult Poles again'
<WARSAW, Sept 22 (Reuters) - Poland's prime minister told Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy on Friday not to "insult" Poles, maintaining harsh rhetoric towards Kyiv after the Polish president had sought to defuse a simmering row over grain imports.
>Poland decided last week to extend a ban on Ukrainian grain imports, shaking Kyiv's relationship with a neighbour that has been seen as one of its staunchest allies since Russia invaded Ukraine in February last year.
>Zelenskiy angered his neighbours when he told the United Nations General Assembly in New York that Kyiv was working to preserve land routes for grain exports, but that the "political theatre" around grain imports was only helping Moscow.
<"I… want to tell President Zelenskiy never to insult Poles again, as he did recently during his speech at the U.N.," Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki told an election rally.
>Poland holds a parliamentary election on Oct. 15, and Morawiecki's ruling nationalist Law and Justice (PiS) party has come in for criticism from the far right for what it says is the government's subservient attitude to Ukraine.
<Speaking to reporters in New York, Rau said that while Poland had not changed its policy towards Ukraine, there had been a "radical change in Polish public opinion's perception" of the countries' relations.
<Asked by state-run news agency PAP what it would take to improve this perception, Rau said repairing the atmosphere would require a "titanic" diplomatic effort.
>Morawiecki said on Friday Warsaw would take matters into its own hands again if it saw a need.
>"If there is destabilisation of other markets… and the European Commission doesn't act we will again take unilateral action on our side," he said. "In defence of the Polish farmer I will never hesitate to take such a decision."https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/polish-president-says-ukrainian-grain-row-wont-significantly-affect-relations-2023-09-22/?utm_source=reddit.com No.1605276

>Ever since the war began, those who favor giving Ukraine “whatever it takes” for as long as it takes have sought to portray the war in the usual U.S. fashion: as a straightforward contest between good and evil.
>In their telling, Russia is solely to blame for the war, and Western policy had absolutely nothing to do with the resulting tragedy. They portray Ukraine as a struggling but plucky democracy that has been brutally attacked by a corrupt, imperialist dictatorship. They see the moral stakes as nearly infinite, because the outcome of the war will supposedly have a far-reaching impact on the future of democracy, the fate of Taiwan, the preservation of a rules-based order, etc.
>Not surprisingly, they are quick to condemn anyone who challenges this view as a naïve appeaser, a Russian lackey, or someone lacking any sense of moral judgment. None of these claims should be accepted without qualification.
>the claim that Western policy had nothing to do with it is risible, as NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg recently acknowledged. Yes, Ukraine is a democracy, but also one that still contains some unsavory elements
>The suggestion that the outcome of this conflict will have a profound impact around the world is even less convincing: The Korean War ended in a stalemate and negotiated armistice and the wars in Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan were clear U.S. defeats, but the geopolitical consequences of these failures were mostly local; this is likely to be true in Ukraine, whatever the ultimate outcome.
>Democracy is in trouble in many places—including the United States—but military setbacks abroad are not the main reason, and a decisive Ukrainian victory wouldn’t restore the U.S. Republican Party to sanity or make France’s Marine Le Pen and Hungary’s Viktor Orban abandon their illiberal political programs.
>If we are talking about human lives, we must look beyond abstract principles and consider the real-world consequences of different choices. It’s not enough to proclaim that the good guys must win; one must also think seriously about what it will cost to produce that outcome and whether it can in fact be achieved.
>Whatever the United States’ original intentions may have been, the lives of Afghans who died while Washington was busily kicking the can down the road were lost to no good purpose. I fear something similar is now occurring in Ukraine.
>Ukraine’s resolve has been extraordinary, and its desires should not be dismissed lightly, but this argument is not decisive. If a friend wants to do something you think is ill-advised or dangerous, you are under no moral obligation to aid their efforts no matter how strongly committed they may be. On the contrary, you’d be morally culpable if you helped them act as they wished and the result was disastrous.
>How many Ukrainians have been killed or wounded, and how long can Kyiv continue to replace them? This issue is vital to any attempt to assess Ukraine’s prospects, but reliable information on it is almost impossible to obtain.
>One last point to bear in mind. If you’re still eager to assign moral responsibility for the war, it doesn’t lie with those of us who warned about the dangers of open-ended NATO expansion, cautioned about the risks of interfering too openly in Ukraine’s internal politics, and argued that ill-considered efforts to arm Ukraine might backfire.
>the blame for this tragedy lies with those in the West who rejected all those earlier warnings about where their policies might lead. Given that many of these same people are among the loudest voices calling to continue the war, raise the stakes, and increase Western support, one is entitled to wonder whether their advice will do as much harm to Ukraine today as it did in the past.https://foreignpolicy.com/2023/09/22/ukraine-war-ethics-morality-murky/https://archive.ph/kzrRO No.1605417

<❗️The attacks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Crimea are becoming more intense and combined - drones, anti-ship systems, and cruise missiles are used, which complicates the work of air defense systems. Even now, drones are being recorded in the skies over Crimea.
<And this became possible due to the absence of any at least equivalent reaction to what is happening on the part of the Russian command. Strikes on fuel storage facilities and oil depots are, of course, not bad, but they will not give the desired effect and result.
<Until there are strikes on command and control bodies and command posts, the intensity of attacks by the Armed Forces of Ukraine will increase. Meanwhile, in Kiev, the work of all Ukrainian structures responsible for regular raids, such as the Main Intelligence Directorate and the Security Service of Ukraine, is proceeding without interruption.

<We’re Being Prepared For The Ukraine War To Last Into The 2030s
>Western officials and media pundits are now directly acknowledging that Ukraine’s much-touted “spring counteroffensive” has been a catastrophic failure, but rather than seeing this as a reason to reconsider the mainstream political consensus on this war, they are instead telling everyone that the counteroffensive’s failure means we must commit to the status quo of bloodshed and nuclear brinkmanship for years to come.
>In a recent article titled “US and G-7 Allies Expect War in Ukraine to Drag On for Years,” Bloomberg reports that the US-centralized power structure expects to be backing its proxy conflict against Russia for a very long time, potentially into the 2030s.
>Bloomberg reports:
>“The US and its allies in the Group of Seven now expect the war in Ukraine may drag on for years to come and are building that possibility into their military and financial planning.
>“A senior official from one European G-7 country said the war may last as much as six or seven more years and that allies need to plan financially to continue support for Kyiv for such a long conflict.
>“That’s much longer than many officials had expected earlier this year, but slow progress in Ukraine’s counteroffensive in recent months has tempered expectations.”
>In a recent interview with CNN, outgoing Joint Chiefs chair Mark Milley said that achieving Kyiv’s official goal of fully recapturing all Ukrainian territory is going to require “very significant effort over a considerable amount of time.”
>“I can tell you that it’ll take a considerable length of time to militarily eject all 200,000 or plus Russian troops out of Russian-occupied Ukraine,” Milley added. “That’s a very high bar. It’s going to take a long time to do it.”
>In a recent interview with German newspaper Berliner Morgenpost, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg also pounded home the point that this war will drag on for a very long time.
>“Most wars last longer than is expected when they first start. Therefore, we must prepare ourselves for a long war in Ukraine,” Stoltenberg said.
>“We are all wishing for a quick peace,” Stoltenberg added. “But at the same time, we must recognize: If President Zelensky and the Ukrainians give up the fight, their country would not exist anymore. If President Putin and Russia laid down their weapons, we would have peace. The easiest way to end this war would be if Putin withdrew his troops.”
>You see this claim from empire managers and their apologists all the time: that the only obstacle to peace in Ukraine is Russia refusing to leave. This of course ignores the many extensively-documented western aggressions which are known to have provoked Russia’s invasion, a fact that Stoltenberg himself admitted to earlier this month.
>Demanding that Russia end its aggressions without the west agreeing to end its own aggressions which led to this conflict is just demanding that Russia lie down and submit to being ruled and dominated by the western empire. It’s not a call for peace, it’s a call for the total victory of Washington and its cohorts.
>Stoltenberg reinforced his point that this war will drag on for years by affirming that Ukraine will gain NATO membership when this war is over, which is effectively a message to Moscow that if it still finds NATO membership for Ukraine unacceptable it must either annex Ukraine into the Russian Federation entirely or keep this war going on forever.
>“Ukraine will become a member of NATO — all allies have made that clear,” Stoltenberg said, adding that Ukraine will need NATO protection when the war ends, otherwise “history could repeat itself.”
>The western media are conveying the same message. Notorious empire propaganda rag The Economist has a new article out titled “Ukraine faces a long war. A change of course is needed,” featuring a Ukrainian flag with the words “TIME FOR A RETHINK” scrawled across it. If you didn’t know anything about The Economist you might assume at first glance that this was an article about rethinking the approach of backing an endless proxy conflict — especially after its opening paragraphs acknowledge that “The plan is not working” and “Ukraine has liberated less than 0.25% of the territory that Russia occupied in June.”
>You would be wrong though. What The Economist means is that we should switch from thinking of this as a war that can be won in a timely fashion to one which will continue for the foreseeable future:
>“Both Ukraine and its Western supporters are coming to realise that this will be a grinding war of attrition. President Volodymyr Zelensky visited Washington this week for talks. ‘I have to be ready for the long war,’ he told The Economist. But unfortunately, Ukraine is not yet ready; nor are its Western partners. Both are still fixated on the counter-offensive. They need to rethink Ukraine’s military strategy and how its economy is run. Instead of aiming to “win” and then rebuild, the goal should be to ensure that Ukraine has the staying power to wage a long war — and can thrive despite it.”
>So western empire managers and their agenda-setters in the mass media are making it as clear as could be that the US-centralized empire has found itself in yet another endless war, another “grinding war of attrition” featuring unfathomable destruction and suffering with no exit strategy, which once again pours vast fortunes into the coffers of the military industrial complex. The only difference is that this time it comes with the added bonus of the threat of nuclear annihilation.
>All for what? To advance the US empire’s goal of total planetary domination, a status quo that it can only maintain by brandishing armageddon weapons at its enemies with increasing hostility year after year.
>When it comes to the war in Ukraine it is definitely time for a rethink, but not by the same monsters who thought us into this horror in the first place.https://www.caitlinjohnst.one/p/were-being-prepared-for-the-ukraine No.1605645

Insofar as periphery countries uplift the international order to get sovereignty from the core, we should explicitly opposed the supremacy of the 'democracies' over them because it clearly means the periphery countries are adapting to liberal unipolarity and learning to use it against itself (which will forever drive liberals up a wall and produce the famous liberal hypocrisy)

Improving the availibility of goods was prioritized in precisely those regions within soviet republics that were on the border USSR or just generally in places where the population was considered unreliable. For example nazi-central Western Ukraine where there was an insurrection against Soviet power lasting into the mid-'50s was one such an area of priority. Several smaller republics also received generous subsidies from the RSFSR. Hence why Yeltsin campaigned against Soviet Union by saying that we Russians would be much better off if we didn't keep showering Central Asia and the Caucasus region with money.
The relationship between the USSR and the other Warsaw Pact countries was very similar. While many of those countries had to pay serious reparations to Moscow or had their army servicemen previously fighting against the Soviets subjected to forced labour, these practices were quickly ended. Stalin declared all the other Warsaw Pact allies' economies must be built up to defend against the threat of a NATO invasion. Furthermore the USSR began giving very generous trade deals on buying natural resources. The reason why industrialisation in the previously semi-feudal Warsaw Pact countries could proceed so rapidly is because the USSR took up the same role as the non-white nations did towards Western Europe: the guarantor of a steady supply of cheap natural resources necessary for industrialization.
The reason why "core" of the "Soviet Empire" had to keep handing over resources to its "periphery" is because the actually colonialist collective West could still afford to treat a few more nations well that are directly on the frontlines of the frozen conflict between NATO and the Warsaw Pact while keeping the rest of the world under (neo-)colonial domination. At the same time the Soviets had to make up for Eastern Europe losing out on the Marshall Plan. The possibility of a Warsaw Pact nation switching sides was their number one security threat. It could even be argued that it was the Soviet Union which suffered from indirect colonial exploitation by NATO through the proxy of other Warsaw Pact states.

THe petrodollar circuit being
>The US exports dollars to country A>Country A exports material goods to the US>Country A then buys oil from country B using US dollars>Country B then either sells their dollars or buys US treasury bonds which effectively removes dollars from circulationThe US is thus able to
levy taxes on the purchase of oil, worldwide.
The imperialist part of the IMF isn't the part where they give loans but the part where they do structural adjustments and force corporations to be more open to foreign ownership, which means that a country both exports its natural resources and then
also returns what it was paid for in the form of dividends, meaning that they were basically not paid for what they exported.
