Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Sunday that during his recent trip to the US, he met with BlackRock CEO Larry Fink and other US business and finance leaders to discuss investment in Ukraine’s reconstruction.
“The American entrepreneurs and financiers confirmed their readiness to make large-scale investments in our country immediately after the end of the war and the receipt of security guarantees,” Zelensky wrote on Telegram. “We are working for the victory and reconstruction of Ukraine.”
CNN reported that while Zelensky was in New York for the UN General Assembly, he attended a meeting convened by JPMorgan Chase to discuss Ukraine’s reconstruction. A source told CNN the meeting was attended by former Google CEO Eric Schmidt, Michael Bloomberg, New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft, hedge fund billionaire Bill Ackman, former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, and billionaire Barry Sternlicht.
The destruction of Ukraine provides a huge investment opportunity for American corporations, as the World Bank has estimated reconstruction could cost over $500 billion. Ukrainian officials have put the price tag for their “recovery plan” at $750 billion.
Earlier this year, bankers from JPMorgan traveled to Kyiv and signed a memorandum of understanding with Zelensky related to Ukraine’s reconstruction. Zelensky and the bankers discussed the idea of establishing a fund with tens of billions of dollars in private capital to go towards investment in Ukraine.
In January 2022, Zelensky virtually addressed a group of American companies and touted the “big business” opportunities his country offered, citing US military support as an example. “And everyone can become a big business by working with Ukraine. In all sectors — from weapons and defense to construction, from communications to agriculture, from transport to IT, from banks to medicine,” he said.
Roflmao
Capitalism hard at work?…
Capitalists hard at work constructing promises made of smoke and mirrors.
“The American entrepreneurs and financiers confirmed their readiness to make large-scale investments in our country immediately after the end of the war and the receipt of security guarantees,”
Translation: Don’t hold your breath and don’t bet the grocery money.
War is the health of the state — and particularly of the economic portion that is the military industrial complex and related fiscal entities. Just despicable.
This is all smoke and mirrors BS – no way that Blackrock Clinton’s etc are going to invest hard cash into what remains of Ukraine. Any agreements they reach with the lunatic from Kiev will be conditional on future events that will never materialise.
It’s a pity because I’d love to see these parasites lose a lot of money in Ukraine.

“Ukraine war is GOOD for business”…..says the BlackRock gatekeeper, Serge Varlay.
Good. They’re all going to lose their money. Hopefully any of these evil.parasites who go to Ukraine will have grisly and painful deaths when they get there. They are the worst human beings on the planet and deserve nothing less.
But from the grayzone, it looks like the US was paying off the debt.
What BlackRock envisioned and planned for, isn’t going to happen. Right on the onset of the Iraq war, the US Chamber of Commerce organized a meeting of all these vampire corporations that were to benefit from reconstruction contracts amongst others. Then, there was some semblance of control of the presidency and government courtesy of the Bush Mafia Family. That laid out the blueprint but due to lack of true power and influence sleepy Joe exhibits, BlackRock, a money asset management colossal was formed to leverage investment opportunities for private vampire interests. They were to leverage their position in all spheres of the conflict. From MiC, bio labs, agribusiness, banking, construction, intelligence services, pmc’s, pharmaceuticals, political influence, etc…What they planned for Ukraine and Russia would have made 90s misery and plunder pale in comparison but alas, that evil evil man Putin, just wouldn’t let shit be even after scores of western leadership visitations to the Kremlin right before the war. By now, the design of the SMO, the grand design not the operational theatre exploits, has all but checkmated the entire enterprise. You can easily see the signs from the frustration and desperation spilled all over western MSM (I mean they are going after Russell Brand fer fvcksake). What remains to be seen (and it will happen), is the BlackRock ponzi scheme falling like the house of cards it currently is. The MiC is their only feeding trough, and whatever little will be left of Ukraine.
So!? He also met and honored a 98 year old Na$i in Canada’s Parliament. This is a great answer to those who ask “how can he be Jewi$h and work with Na$is?” …You don’t believe me? …See for yourself:

I’m just being sarcastic you all. I didn’t mean any of that. (Sarcastic believer)
And we mustn’t forget The Zionist bully boy Stern Gang wanting to ally with Hitler against the British.
Fink is licking his chops.

Don’t forget the prosthetic industry. Some of them children might survive when they pick up those “dud” cluster munitions. Or the chemo-therapy industry that can make hay giving treatments to cancer patients who contacted the horrible disease from DU. Or is that part of the “medicine” he mentioned. The opportunities are as endless as the deaths. In fact, they are interchangeable.
Yes, the collassol insensitivity of the Fool. Talking “wonderful” profits to US oligarchs, and glory of death and suffering to his citizens.
Pure, Apocalyptic Poetry WARS. Well done, well done…

Blackrock? The American Conservative: https://www.theamericanconservative.com/blackrock-plots-to-buy-ukraine/ (by the way, Fed Chairman Powell has $6 million under management by Blackrock)
I’m guessing that Larry Fink’s middle name is Rat.
And, the American taxpayer will eventually again pay for rebuilding another country that needed destroying in order to save it. Anybody see a cycle here?
