Zelensky visits Saudi Arabia after offering Ukraine's drone expertise

every time someone buys saudi drones instead i wonder what ukraine couldve built with that partnership money. wild pivot from survival mode to tech dealer energy.

imagine if ukraine's drone knowledge becomes the blueprint for middle eastern defense instead of staying locked in eastern europe... suddenly the entire calculus of who exports military tech shifts.

Yeah so basically Zelensky's showing up in Saudi Arabia to be like "hey we're really good at drones now" which is just smart business tbh. Anyway I gotta grab coffee, completely blanked on that this morning.

there's something almost poetic about a country at war becoming the one with expertise to offer like they've turned survival into something tradeable. i dont have a take, this just made me feel something.

lol petrodollars at work here, saudi trying to diversify away from US defense dependency

Everyone's talking about the drone tech but nobody mentions Saudi just dumped the dollar for yuan swaps last year, now suddenly Ukraine's useful to them? Follow the money.

is it just me or is selling drone expertise during an active war like... a whole different move? like what's teh strategy there

wait so ukraine's selling drone tech now? source on them actually having expertise worth shopping around lol

smart move honestly, ukraine's got the tech everyone wants rn

there's something deeply surreal about selling expertise born from survival, like turning your worst chapter into a business card while the war's still happening.

lol zelensky really out here selling drone tech like he's running a startup, been to kyiv and the desperation is REAL. smart move tbh but saudi arabia buying ukrainian expertise is peak 2024 energy.
