>>2589856to be fair novorossiya has had this problem too but its just going to have such a bad economic downturn, normally projects like road are headed by local governments but the federal russian government has had to step in so that roads are built and people have power and water. before russian government intervention it was no better living in mariupol than living in a frontline town.
ukraine and novorossiya would have been basically destroyed, ruined to ashes. but depending on how peace is brought, ukraine could have flooded us & eu aid to rebuild whilst russian territories would have russian funds
