Topic: Russia on the way to zero - page 3. (Read 647 times)

You think so only because you were not attacked, a rocket did not fly into your house, your country is not occupied by an enemy who has destroyed democracy in his country and wants to impose his laws on you, where there is no freedom.

Im not so sure on this, just because the news is reporting
progress on Ukraine’s side it doesn’t entirely mean Russia is
on way to zero. Just take a look at what happened to the energy,
fuel and grain prices when the war started, it’s that much of an
impact worldwide. With or without the sanctions, a country like
that will thrive and survive at any cost. Im against any kind
of war seeing and feeling the effects it has on nations and
the people.. heres hoping that powerful countries will come to
a fast and realistic solution to end such conflicts so we can focus
on more pressing and concerning matters with our planet and
nations.

Yes, now, thanks to the sanctions, the Russian economy will finally grow to the skies and fly into space.

President Joe Biden and the West’s sanctions against Russia are only making its economy stronger as a result.

“Russia cannot defeat Ukraine,” said Biden, justifying the sanctions which have hurt innocents in the United States, Russia and all over the world.

“The reason why gas prices are up is because of Russia. Russia, Russia, Russia,” he added, attempting to deflect blame for the growing economic and inflation crisis.

But as Biden and his allies in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization continue to deny their culpability in the growing global crises, the sanctions have actually been a windfall for the Russian economy.

Russia is the world’s leading exporter of energy. It produces 12 million barrels of oil per day, with around 8.5 million of those being exported to other countries per day. Following the implementation of sanctions, the price of a barrel of oil has risen as high as $118.

The current price of Brent crude futures, one of the world benchmarks for gauging oil prices, is currently hovering at around $100 per barrel, its lowest level since April 11, but still far higher than pre-sanctions oil prices.

What this means is that Russia got the best terms for trading oil in its history. Last year, the country received around $120 billion in the oil trade. This year it is expected to reap a whopping $250 billion. In other words, international sanctions have virtually doubled the size of the Russian oil industry.

“It can be stated without fear of hyperbole that Russia has been the country that has benefited most from the international sanctions imposed by the U.S. and its allies,” wrote the editorial team of the Observatorial. “The story has, apart from its tragic aspects, a deeply ironic content, perhaps because it is a ‘fear of freedom’ that always breaks the limits imposed on it.”

Keeping Russian sanctions in place could kill the U.S. dollar

According to recently published statistics from the Russian authorities, more than 80 percent of the Russian people support their country's invasion of Ukraine. This can be explained in two ways:
- Either the information is wrong, and everyone knows that with the reality of freedoms being suppressed in Russia, the process of sounding opinions cannot be that impartial and that its results have been published only because they are compatible with the views of the government.

And to make sure that that doesn't happen." George Friedman, STRATFOR CEO at The Chicago Council on Foreign Affairs

The Ukrainian crisis has nothing to do with Ukraine. It's about Germany and, in particular, a pipeline that connects Germany to Russia called Nord Stream 2. Washington sees the pipeline as a threat to its primacy in Europe and has tried to sabotage the project at every turn. Even so, Nord Stream has pushed ahead and is now fully-operational and ready-to-go. Once German regulators provide the final certification, the gas deliveries will begin. German homeowners and businesses will have a reliable source of clean and inexpensive energy while Russia will see a significant boost to their gas revenues. It's a win-win situation for both parties.

The US Foreign Policy establishment is not happy about these developments. They don't want Germany to become more dependent on Russian gas because commerce builds trust and trust leads to the expansion of trade. As relations grow warmer, more trade barriers are lifted, regulations are eased, travel and tourism increase, and a new security architecture evolves. In a world where Germany and Russia are friends and trading partners, there is no need for US military bases, no need for expensive US-made weapons and missile systems, and no need for NATO. There's also no need to transact energy deals in US Dollars or to stockpile US Treasuries to balance accounts. Transactions between business partners can be conducted in their own currencies which is bound to precipitate a sharp decline in the value of the dollar and a dramatic shift in economic power. This is why the Biden administration opposes Nord Stream. It's not just a pipeline, it's a window into the future; a future in which Europe and Asia are drawn closer together into a massive free trade zone that increases their mutual power and prosperity while leaving the US on the outside looking in. Warmer relations between Germany and Russia signal an end to the "unipolar" world order the US has overseen for the last 75 years. A German-Russo alliance threatens to hasten the decline of the Superpower that is presently inching closer to the abyss. This is why Washington is determined to do everything it can to sabotage Nord Stream and keep Germany within its orbit. It's a matter of survival.

Putin simply wants to see the Russian rebound to the top. If he's fast enough, we all might see it.

But Putin is making efforts to make it happen faster.

Russia on the way to zero


But we won't see it in our lifetime.

“As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease.”

  There is no doubt that most of the Russian people support Putin in the war with Ukraine, just as they supported the annexation of Crimea. It is on the people that Putin relies. For example, the Russian people were on Putin's side for his war in Chechnya. The fact is that the great-power worldview of the Russian people has not disappeared, which is the main factor in Putin's presence in the Kremlin for 30 years.

According to recently published statistics from the Russian authorities, more than 80 percent of the Russian people support their country's invasion of Ukraine. This can be explained in two ways:
- Either the information is wrong, and everyone knows that with the reality of freedoms being suppressed in Russia, the process of sounding opinions cannot be that impartial and that its results have been published only because they are compatible with the views of the government.
- Or that the Russian people are actually deceived by the propaganda that Zombify Ukraine, because I do not really imagine that most of the Russian people want to return to the glories of the URSS.

Of course, like everyone else, I am against the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and I am also against military adventures and wars anywhere in the world because they only cause havoc and destruction, but some people may not see Putin as you see him, some see him as a patriotic leader who stood in the face of the West trying to subject Russia and the world to its control. Absolute, America and the West want to dominate the world and do not want anyone to stand in their way. I am not with Putin, but I am not with the West either. I see that the greed of both sides, the West and Russia, will cause the world to be destroyed.

The the invasion also brought about a double of the ruble's worth ?
The want for gas has made more people also use the ruble's in sometime now.
How has the united states' dollar dropped ? explain a lil bit.

Russia on the way to zero


Russia on the way to ruling the world. Once the USDollar crashes, the US won't have any strength. Things like crypto, NFTs, the up and coming GTE, precious metals... are all crashing the USD.
