War: who benefits and how!

[coupable]

When we talk about the Ukraine and Russia war, only Russia has benefits from it as they can gain land, but for Ukraine, they are fighting for freedom. Also in war, the only thing that can benefit is the business of weaponry dealers like those who will make tanks, arm weapons, and anything else that was used in war because the demand is increasing, so they will make and make until the end of the war, meaning they are getting money from those countries on war. We normal people are affected by it, and we can't stop it on our own.

Most of the military countries monopolize the manufacture of weapons, and it is not possible for private companies to obtain licenses to manufacture any type of weapons.  These countries monopolize the industry, since its production is mainly for defense purposes, or it is sold on the global market.  In general, this country does not push towards wars, and the military industry is not one of the components of its economy. 
In other countries, private companies monopolize the arms industry, and since financial profit is their primary goal, they are pushing with all their efforts towards concluding more deals with potential customers.  These companies interfere in the political decision and do not care whether their customers are regular armies or armed groups.

Not every enterprise turns out to be profitable, and in many cases everyone loses, more or less, it's just that some gather political influence as a side effect of their actions, perhaps. That's how the US really became a prominent country after WW2, while France because way less powerful than it used to be. But it doesn't mean that the war was beneficial for Germany, the USA, the Soviet Union of anyone else. It was a huge tragedy, dozens of millions lives were lost, but the evil of Nazism had to be stopped no matter the cost. The USA gained political influence and probably money as well, but the war wasn't beneficial overall. In the Russo-Ukrainian war, everyone is losing and some might gain due to side effects if the war ends as it should, with Ukraine's victory. Ukraine would certainly gain a lot from defeating Russia, becoming a widely recognized political regional player rather than a country most can't even point to on the map and have no idea how big it is. But that doesn't mean Ukraine is benefiting from the war, as Ukraine is also suffering from it immensely and would of course prefer not to be invaded by Russia and remain of a lower political significance and with fewer weapons. The UK is gaining political influence which it lost over the last few decades by being a major ally of Ukraine and thus showing that it can still do things that matter internationally, despite not being that huge empire it used to be and not even being a part of the EU. Russia, I'm sure, wanted to gain a lot politically by conquering Ukraine because somebody is still not over the end of the Soviet Union and thinks that Kyiv should be their major city, while Ukraine is a 'fictional' state that should not exist. Analyzing potential gains isn't always helpful to determine what's going on and how it will go.

With this Russia Ukraine war which the effect is felt in almost all parts of the world directly and indirectly, I want to ask are there beneficiaries to this war and in what ways are they benefiting from it.

In every war there is someone who is getting benefited all the time. For example, US is supplying the war material to Ukraine and its their future investments. When war will be over and country is free, US will start asking for returns from the Ukraine. It could be either in the form of monetary refunds with interest or it could be geo settlements between the two and much more. Similarly there are countries who are standing by Russia, for example India who is already getting benefits of discounted oil and thus building the long term relationships already. Who knows if India and some other country like China goes into war then they could have biggest support from them.

That type of trend is going on when war breaks out and that's how countries will start forming alliances with each other. The real payback always comes after the dust is settled.

I read that the market for the sale of weapons is very small in terms of capitalization when compared with other global markets (for example, the market for oil, natural gas, grain, etc.)

Therefore, it is not arms sellers who receive the main benefits from the war (although of course they also earn very  big money).  Weapons rather play a role in the capture of new territories rich in minerals. 

If, for example, the United States were not such a militarily strong state, then the US dollar would hardly have become the world's reserve currency. 

However, the war itself is destructive and has catastrophic consequences.

[South Park]

I support no one in the war between Russia and Ukraine and all the wars going on in the world, war is a crime. But to say who benefits in this war, it is clear that the arms dealers are the ones who benefit the most, the longer the war lasted, the more weapons they sold. Not to mention like the news I read, the Ukrainian battlefield is also a place for great powers to test new weapons as well as flaunt their strength to sell more weapons.

I hope there will be a miracle, a country can come out to end the war, the war not only hurts the people of the two countries but also affects the whole world.

Arms dealers are the most obvious beneficiaries from wars but they are not really the ones that earn the most, after a war at a country a great deal of effort is needed to get it back to its previous level of development, and for that money is needed, however that money comes with conditions which benefits whoever is lending that money, so bankers and investors will earn the most out of this after the war is over, and I hope the war is over as soon as possible so the people from Ukraine can start to rebuild their lives.

Winning country. Dominance.
But obviously, none of them are winning. Wars are not really beneficial and will never be necessary. Bigger problems will just arise and will just make the possibility for things to be followed by other countries as well. Hundreds and thousands of lives are being killed during a war. Economic crises are also being a struggle during such thing. It will also take long amount of time to completely recover and before making use of the dominance won over the other countries. This is just how power is being percieved by some countries who are used on solving inter country problems with brute force.  We're done with colonialism, we should never go back again with the time wherein killing and mass destruction are considered to be a solution.

There's money to be made in these types of conflict. Just right now, Russia's barring of oil on opposing countries surged its price and had made it even more valuable in the public market, not to mention the fact that there's the weapons dealership too, as well as other points of profit that entities use and abuse in times of crisis. Ultimately, in the case of Russia's war against Ukraine, which was done for the sole purpose of invading and absorbing the latter's territory for its resources and access to other geo-political factors, the prize here comes in the form of Ukraine. Never mind the lives lost, or the lives devastated by this conflict (I'm being sarcastic), land's more valuable than people's lives anyway.

[Bananington]

I want to ask are there beneficiaries to this war and in what ways are they benefiting from it.

There are many beneficiaries to war. The people who sell weapons to the countries in crisis, the government of supporting nations that give financial aid to the countries in crisis as they can find a way to laundered money through it. The leaders of the countries that receive the funding that may just decide to keep engaging in the crisis because they are receiving massive financial aid and support, they can embezzle funds without many scrutiny. Pharmaceutical companies that sell drugs and companies that sell relief items are beneficiaries too.

War is one thing that no society should engage themselves into as its effect is devastating and unforgettable upon generations. When two or more countries are warring it is said that there are other countries that benefits in one way or the other from the war as it prolongs and intensifies, especially economical benefits is one of such.
 The ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine which has been on for almost a year now and the effects of the war between these two is not only on the two warring countries alone but has gone so far as affecting the economies of many countries of the world that have no involvement or interference in the said war. countries of Europe are experiencing a fall short in gas supply, while those of Africa and other continent suffer from economic downfall as a result of certain products and services that are no longer in-coming due to the war effect.
With this Russia Ukraine war which the effect is felt in almost all parts of the world directly and indirectly, I want to ask are there beneficiaries to this war and in what ways are they benefiting from it.

War is also use to create peace. There are somethings that political leaders do in the society can be solved only war. Like Nigeria, it is only war can solve the present scenario in the country because the court who's supposed be the last hope for common man is also part of the oppressing class. War is absent of peace. In war people and countries benefits from it. Small scale businesses also benefits from war. Manufacturers benefits from war. But those countries that produce gun or weapons are the ones benefits more and also food stuff. Those dealers that deal on food stuffs to the conflicting parties also benefits from it. Land acquisition from owners by the opposition party. In war different people persons benefits differently.

Average person never benefits from war, in fact, he becomes cannon-fodder. Elites, billionaires, these people profit a lot, even from war. While it looks like the country is suffering and people are having less money, these billionaires still benefit because everything you spend money on, belongs to them. They increase prices, you pay more, they pay less, you work harder.
Different companies profit from different situations. During Pandemic, doctors and pharma companies were profiting a lot, during this war, gas and some other companies are profiting the most but elites definitely are profiting always.
I believe what we see outside isn't the only thing that happens at the moment. It's known that a lot of money is laundered during the war.

[cabron]

North African countries are benefiting coz it seems like they get the cheapest Russian oil and then sell it to European countries 3x its price. That's a huge gain for them.

They need to make more money, after all, it's the best they can do while the EU keeps sanctioning Russia. While Russia also benefits from taking more land from Ukraine. I don't think the regions are going back to Ukraine and will be on the table once the minds cool down and are ready for peace negotiation.

It is possible, for example, at the expense of the state budget to restore the destroyed city on the frontline territory. 

And then an unexpected event will happen - the enemy will suddenly go on the offensive and destroy this city again. 

And no one will know that this city was not restored, and the funds allocated for restoration were simply stolen. 

During the war, interested persons can easily carry out such financial schemes and enrich themselves on this.  During the military confusion, no one can prevent them from doing this.

[Hamza2424]

Simple to answer this we can have two approaches to understanding one is from the Country wise and one is from the industry wise so to maintain the ethical way we are going general using a named entity.

There are different types of entities in the world one who Lives by Selling Food products, Some sell Oil and some Sell Factory Products and Some Sell their Tourism services as these are major services that make them survive in the same world there are some entities who created a necessary thing on the name of peace called weapons so in War who is in benefit the entity simple as they Dominate to Servive (To Live better). For a common example let's consider Ukraine vs Russia's recent Incidents EU countries provided $25B in Funding (Which is more likely a Loan based offer to Ukraine to fight Russia) not financially. They provided this amount in the form of weapons that they will offer them $25B weapons on loan.

Further, as this example is based on the local Journalist report I am not sure about the authenticity but this is reality and this happens because people don't have money to eat and they desperately buy weapons on loan I consider my country as well in this.

[zaki12]

In my opinion, actually no country benefits from the Russia vs Ukraine war because:
- Russia's oil and gas sales are up but it's also costing a lot for the war not to mention the losses due to sanctions
- China experienced a decline in economic growth including all countries in the world.
- America is experiencing an economic crisis and inflation even though its military industry is alive and well.
- European Union economic crisis and energy scarcity
- Ukraine is devastated by huge debts to the European Union

if Russia wins the war, America and Europe will lose big, because it is impossible for Ukraine to repay its debts.

[Huppercase]

The two sides always lose but the ones who have more friends always win financially and quickly recover from damage. Look at Ukraine from example, despite the way Russian has been attacking them, they still have all the support they need from other countries while Russia is seen as the bad country, they continue to receive donation from different countries and heavy funding from US. Russia is loosing value from other countries because of puttin and Ukraine is gaining value from other countries but I think things might settle down when Puttin tenure comes to an end.

[KennyR]

In war no country benefits despite the attack or winning from the opponent, in war they both lose their soldiers at a time and as well suffer the same hardship. Now how doe other country benefits, well as a matter of fact there's no benefits all less their competitors who are wanting to dominate the other country by innovations and many more. Don't you ever or dream of war because after the war it would take longer time to take back it's previous structures and coupled with the numerous soul that has been lost, Many of their citizens have relocated from their country to nearest country where they found comfortability and rest of mind.

The winner will be the country that sells the war equipments to the country involved in war. Almost every country have got a big allocation on their budget for security and systems development. This fund is being used continuously on production, and beyond some point there happens accumulation. How this can be used, only during war. Even there are discussion that war is being triggered by few nations for their weapon trade. I'm not sure on it.

You have a point there, I forgot after the war, Ukraine will need a lot of money to rebuild the country, and that will be an opportunity for the banks, which will even make more money than contractors selling weapons. Because it takes decades for a country to recover economically after a war.

We all expect the war to end soon, but that won't happen anytime soon, as it seems the major powers have yet to reach an agreement on the division of profits. The war has entered its second year, and I doubt it will end this year, it will be a multi-year war.

[Markinzo]

In war no country benefits despite the attack or winning from the opponent,

Pardon! I do disagree with your statement here that in war non of the belligerent country benefits in anyway in the way. Let use the case of the WW2 between the USA and the Japanese, dis you know that part of the world power the USA wield today was due to the  resultant aggression of the atomic bombs dropped in the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. The effect of such act paid the USA an influence of a world power among other nations of the world. So doesn't that sounds like a benefit?

[bitterguy28]

then this is truly a benefits lol.

but does this not making them prone from the sanctions of whom who supports russia?

but either way this is truly a good thing for them and their people(if not being abused by the corrupt government as we knew about north africa)

They need to make more money, after all, it's the best they can do while the EU keeps sanctioning Russia. While Russia also benefits from taking more land from Ukraine. I don't think the regions are going back to Ukraine and will be on the table once the minds cool down and are ready for peace negotiation.

but still war is devastating and not to be tolerated right?

[Jawhead999]

Bitcoin holders also get the benefit of this war isn't? where the Bitcoin price was slightly drop and it's make people who have cash or stable coin can buy the dip.

Anything beside war will have both advantage and disadvantage, it just depends on your side. Just like this war, are you a Russian? a Ukrainian? or country who sell weapons? Both Russia and Ukraine get the disadvantages, while country who sell weapons are get a lot advantages.

World War II did not take place in the United States of America.  

The main fighting took place on the territory of modern Ukraine, Belarus and Russia, as well as other European countries.  

The United States, after the end of World War II, became a powerful country precisely because its territory was not affected by hostilities.  At the same time, the industry and agriculture of many potential US competitors were completely destroyed by the war.  

If you want your country to become powerful and prosperous after the end of the war, then it is necessary that military operations take place as far as possible from the territory of your country, so that neither shells, nor missiles, nor bombers reach its cities.
