WHO really owns #Ukraine - Thread
Do you know that the size of the #Ukrainian 🇺🇦 land owned by #American 🇺🇸 companies is much bigger than Crimea?
- Crimea: 2.7 million hectares.
- Land in Ukraine Owned by (mostly) American companies: 3.3 to 6 million hectares.

No, this is not a joke, this is not "Kremlin propaganda"
#UKRAINE HAS THE SECOND LARGEST AREA GLOBALLY OF LAND CONTROLLED BY FOREIGN INVESTORS
(Data from LandMatrix, a trusted independent global land monitoring initiative funded by the European Commission)

Why?
HOW this is possible?
Because of USAID🇺🇸, they have been pushing laws (and grey legislative areas) to unlock land ownership in Ukraine...
Their colonialist rationale: "If you do not own the land, the risk of cultivating a field for crops or an orchard is immense" 🤡

In 2015 "only" 1.6 million hectares of Agricultural Land in Ukraine were owned by foreign companies.
Now the number has grown 500%
In 2020, a 20-year ban was lifted (the free farmland trade), but that was just the final nail in the coffin, this trend began in 2014 (#Maidan?)
5/
Protests against allowing the sale of #Ukraine's farmland were ignored by the new government led by Volodymyr #Zelensky, even when 2/3 of Ukrainians opposed it.
The destruction of Ukraine's national economy began in the #Maidan, as instructed by the US Congress and the IMF.
6/
And in 2022, due to the Hryvnia collapse, American companies are not just buying land for pennies on a dollar, but openly bragging about it, the evil plan is called: "Rebuilding Ukraine’s Agriculture"
"The worst kind of enemies are those who pretend to be your friends."
7/
Do we need to talk about the environmental impact?
Ecoaction "on the impact of the concentration of agricultural land in #Ukraine":
"Over 40% of all agricultural lands in Ukraine may lose fertility due to (Foreign) predatory agricultural activities"
8/
What would #Bandera think?
#Ukraine is not only being consumed by US companies, but Ukrainians are also saying "thank you" to the predators.
"It may be dangerous to be America's enemy, but to be America's friend is fatal."
