Russia has its bankers, too, many of whom openly control media and energy production. There is also a Russian Central Bank, run by the state, that has a controlling stake in Sberbank., a private bank. But I guess that's okay, so long as they tow Putin's line, right?

Lucky for the Ukrainians those fields proved to be duds so their country won`t be polluted.

I agree that the international finance system is long overdue for a drastic overhaul, but that doesn't mean that every single foreign policy is dictated by bankers.
