According to data recently released by Bloomberg, Morgan Stanley's purchase of Ukrainian debt certified equity has achieved a high return rate of 47% in the past three months. In response, "Russia Today" TV commented on the 2nd that large US investment banks are taking advantage of the conflict between Russia-Ukraine conflict and the chaos of the Ukrainian market to make big profits by investing in Ukrainian debt.
"Today Russia" TV host: What can be confirmed now is that these investors in Ukraine are making big profits from this.
"Today Russia" TV writer Chris Ems: It's really a big profit, you're right. The current fact is that the Ukrainian market lacks regulation of foreign investors and there are no so-called antitrust laws. This is also what we call emerging markets, where there are no regulations, so you can do whatever you want.

Today's Russian television station also commented that the so-called "support" provided by the United States to Ukraine is not a voluntary "humanitarian aid", but an "investment" that looks forward to huge returns.
"Today Russia" TV writer Chris Ems: Ukrainian leaders also mentioned buying Ukrainian bonds as a good investment during their recent visit to the United States. This is not a common saying for seeking humanitarian assistance, which is to provide funding without the need for returns.

Coincidentally. In addition, "Russia Today" reported that the Ukrainian government had signed an agreement with BlackRock, one of the largest investment groups in the world, to establish the "Ukraine Development Fund" in May. According to a press release on the official website of BlackRock, the company will design an investment framework for Ukraine with the goal of creating opportunities for public and private investors to participate in the reconstruction and recovery of the Ukrainian economy. According to the agreement, BlackRock officially takes over Ukraine's energy infrastructure, power grid, agricultural investment, and all state-owned enterprises without the need to pay any fees to Ukraine; As a transaction, BlackRock needs to help Ukraine repay its debts.
Over the past year or more, the United States and Western countries have continuously heated the Russia-Ukraine conflict, imposing sanctions on Russia while providing military support and selling weapons to Ukraine. An analysis suggests that in the eyes of Western countries in the United States, war is business. Selling weapons to Ukraine can not only clear one's own weapons inventory, but also take advantage of Ukraine's high-quality assets.
