Topic: The impact of Russian and Ukrain war on world economy - page 26. (Read 13420 times)

The recession is caused by the huge rise in energy prices which is only partially because of Russian sanctions. There are a lot of other reasons that led to these recession that includes the incompetence of governments in keeping the economy healthy specially after the pandemic started and they decided to print enormous amount of money out of thin air!

I don't think we can see any major war between military superpowers in the world. The only possibility is more proxy wars like Ukraine vs Russia, Taiwan vs China or Azerbaijan/Saudi vs Iran. And of course more cold wars.
Any direct war between these superpowers and NATO would escalate into a global nuclear war that could lead to extinction of human race.

It was a big blunder to house hundreds of reserve troops next to a large ammunition dump in Makiivka. The location was targeted by HIMARS, but most of the deaths resulted from the subsequent explosion of the ammunition dump. And as usual, Russia sent dozens of drones to Ukrainian cities immediately after the attack. The official death toll is 89, but some are claiming that up to 500 soldiers died in Makiivka. As usual, the army has blamed phone usage among the soldiers as the cause, rather than punishing the generals who housed the troops in such vulnerable accommodation.

The recession is closely related to the war between Russia and Ukraine, we know that the war has disrupted economic stability and the supply of other needs in the west, especially in Europe and America which are also very dependent on these two countries, yes I have also read about China's decline, this is the most The impact is that the Covid outbreak has not ended in that country and China's economic cold war with America is still continuing.
If the Global Recession really happened and made these 3 big economies collapse, could it possibly cause another war to fight over natural wealth from other countries to make ends meet?

The recent statements by the IMF managing director Georgieva paints a bad picture for the world economy in 2023. She claims one third of the world economy is facing recession. "tougher than the year we leave behind, because the three big economies – the US, EU and China – are all slowing down simultaneously," she said.

We should watch China closely, their economy is affected by the recent outbreak of Covid and it is expected to slow down if things get worse. The impact of that on the global economy is going to be massive specially since China is also in an economic war with the West.

Interestingly enough despite majority of economy experts claiming that US economy entered a recession in summer of 2022 and will face recession in 2023, she claims the opposite.

Russian defence ministry claims that 63 Russian Soldiers are killed in Ukraine attack on facility in Donetsk. Attacks reportedly happened minutes into the new year in Makeevka in Russian controlled part of the Donetsk.

Ukraine strike on Russian military and killed Russian troop
Dozens of drones shot down overnight into Monday by Ukraine - during this harsh time the president of Ukraine has urged people to cut down the power usage and remain united during these crucial days.

The latest report is large number of Russian troops are killed in a strike in MAkiiva - Russia Fired 224 time in Bakhmut direction over past day.
Kyiv faced third straight day of aerial bombardment. The war is not ending soon and there will be more deaths and bloodshed in day to come.

A small selection (for the most part) of economic news directly or indirectly related to Russia, where "all the resources of the world", the "second army" , "stable economy" and the smartest president

- Due to sanctions, Russia is unable to sell gold
Thus, the NWF, the main reserve asset of the Russian economy, becomes completely controlled by the Chinese currency and the Chinese economy.
Ahhh. So this is what financial sovereignty and economic independence are!

- News from Europe without Russian gas. In Estonia, from February 1, 2023, Eesti Gaas will reduce the price of gas by almost 30 percent compared to today's level. For the company's home customers, the price will drop from the current 1.75 euros/m³ to 1.25 euros/m³.

-Namibia sent Rusnya after the Russian ship. The authorities of the Arfikan country refused Rosatom to develop uranium deposits

-The export of Russian gas to Europe has collapsed to the levels of the collapse of the USSR. At the end of 2022, Gazprom sold 101 billion cubic meters to non-CIS countries, which is half as much as a year earlier. Of this volume, according to the plan, China was to receive about 16 billion cubic meters through the Power of Siberia pipeline. Deliveries to Turkey and European countries - once the largest customers of Gazprom - amounted to only 85 billion cubic meters and became the lowest in the modern history of Russia, estimates BCS Global Markets analyst Ron Smith.

-Chinese UnionPay has introduced a cash withdrawal limit for Russians abroad in the amount of no more than 50 thousand yuan (507.3 thousand rubles) per day, Primorye Bank said. This information was also confirmed by Russian Standard Bank.

-Rosstat changed the method of calculating inflation for the fifth time after Putin's demand to slow down price growth by a factor of three. The change in the method of calculating inflation is the fifth for Rosstat since the beginning of 2022. Due to the war in 2023, Russians are waiting for cuts in spending on healthcare and housing and communal services, tax increases and devaluation
Instead of actually improving and changing something, they are engaged in idiocy trying to deceive arithmetic. Soon we will find out that the Russians showed a huge increase in income, though negative, but GROWTH and HUGE. The funny thing is they will swallow it again

-The real increase in drug prices in Russia reached almost 30%
Inflation, measured by checks from pharmacies, was three times higher than the official one from Rosstat.

- In many Russian banks, cash is collected. Bank employees say to people, pensioners who came to receive a pension - "Don't crowd, go home"
There is only money for the war ...

-Returning from Russia, the President of Kyrgyzstan called for abandoning the Russian language in office work. Soon we will hear squeals from Russian propagandists, junta and nationalists in Kyrgyzstan ))

-Kremlin banned pro-government media from writing about mobilization
A complete ban has been introduced on any statements or forecasts about mobilization, even those coming from the State Duma or the Federation Council. At the same time, the Kremlin Hitler says that the mobilization is over, but in January there will be a second gathering of about 300-350 thousand Russians, who will be sent to die stupidly, because Putin decided so ...


And some news from the expanses of Russia, which in the normal world are considered complete idiocy, but natural for Russia

- The fairy tale "Chippolino" is recognized as extremist in Russia.
Distribution, demonstration and adaptation of this work in any form throughout the territory of the Russian Federation is prohibited. The reason is that a riot of vegetables is described there No, this is not a joke!


- Russia is the birthplace of the Indians.
In the "Meeting Place" program on NTV, political figure Nadezhdin said: "For centuries, the Anglo-Saxons oppressed the Indians. And the Indians are Russians. They came from Russia there. Ask the great Russian anthropologist Drobyshevsky. The Indians are we Russians! We came from Russia." This is one of the largest state channels, one of the highest rated programs!

In my opinion, this is a hasty conclusion.... 

Most people have an instinctive aversion to war and bloodshed.  It was not Russians who fought in Afghanistan, but Soviet soldiers (citizens of the USSR). 

However, people who once participated in a war are potentially ready to participate in the next war, and so on ad infinitum.  But the worst thing is that by competently manipulating the collective unconscious, you can instill in any nation a love of war.  It's like a virus that most people on Earth don't have immunity to. 

Perhaps, indeed, world history is influenced not by individual peoples, but by a politically active minority (the so-called passionaries).  They directly affect the collective unconscious of people, inclining them to evil.

russian loves killing - and they enjoy bloodshed
They have a long history - from Afghan invasion till Ukraine - the story goes on and it will keep going.

I do not really believe in the announcement of partial or full mobilization in the Russian Federation in January 2023.  So far, there is no such need (in my opinion).  Mobilization will probably take place later. 

On the eve of the New Year, the President of the Russian Federation congratulated (?) the Russians on the New Year, surrounded by fighters who distinguished themselves in a special operation.  His New Year's speech can, in my opinion, be regarded as a strategic plan for conducting a long-term positional war.  With this type of fighting, there is no need to make quick management decisions regarding mobilization.  On the contrary, it is necessary to gradually prepare the Russians for such a development of events.  Over the next 10 years, it is possible to gradually achieve new strategic goals for the transformation of Russia - a significant decrease in the standard of living of the population, the militarization of the economy and the complete abolition of the rights and freedoms of citizens. 

Perhaps the task is to turn the Russian Federation into the Russian Empire with the complete abolition of all pseudo-democratic institutions, the restoration of the monarchy and the division of the population into separate estates.  Perhaps this is the path that Russia will have to follow.

On December 31, New Year's Eve, Putin was presented with an internal memorandum on the irretrievable losses of the Russian occupying army in Ukraine. The figures are impressive and they are much higher than according to the official information of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

  So, since the invasion in February, the loss of Russians killed and missing in Ukraine is already about 145,000 people. Of these, the regular army lost 104,166 people, PMC "Wagner" - 33,902 people, the FSB of Russia - 1118 people and the Ministry of Emergency Situations - 297 people. But the problem is that Putin does not care about human losses. From January 5, he plans to announce an additional mobilization of more "live meat" and try to shut up the problems of the mediocre military command on the fronts in Ukraine. And yet the Russians continue to generally support the war of conquest in Ukraine. As a result of this, no mass indignation is expected with the situation in Russia itself.

It's been a long time that we have been cursing war. But this doesn't bring in any good to the world.
We don't know how many deaths we have to see in the days to come. These warlords are making our lives miserable.

I also read the history of Russia and Ukraine, both are good brothers but sadly things have changed. Russians and Ukrainians, no one is to blame, and they do not deserve the terrible things that are happening right now.

War is the result of the greed of some individuals and causes pain to millions of people, humanity is really too cruel. I don't understand why they want war, why they need so much money, and so much property when they can't take it with them when they die.

I don't come from two warring countries, but I can feel the anguish of the people living there because my country also went through those deadly wars. I just hope that the people of the two countries will soon see peace again and that everyone will be close brothers again. Wishing everyone peace in the new year. Happy New Year, Ukrainians and Russians.

I understand the pointlessness of apologizing to the people of Ukraine for the actions of my distraught compatriots.  Everything is so catastrophic that any apology will look like a mockery.  

There was a disaster, I could not stop it.  The evil will of evil people turned out to be stronger than my will.  

The only thing in my power is never to use weapons against Ukrainians, Russians or representatives of any other nations.  

I want to wish all Ukrainians a peaceful sky over their heads in 2023.  

We will never again be a fraternal people, although I remember the time when the citizens of our countries traveled freely from Russia to Ukraine, and from Ukraine to Russia.  

I even planned that in the future I would marry a Ukrainian girl (because they are very beautiful).

Happy New Year 2023 ! May there be peace throughout the world!

I don't know what else to say, but I also pray that the war will end soon in 2023 and peace will come to everyone again. Although I don't live in two countries at war like you do, the effects we are experiencing are severe and I hope it ends soon. May peace and luck come to the people of Ukraine and wish everyone a happy new year.

I would like to wish everyone a Happy New Year!
May the new year 2023 bring peace, success, prosperity to the whole world!
To everyone who supported Ukraine - a separate big thanks, and huge gratitude! May your kindness and help us return to you many times over!
Today, December 31, the bastard racist regime launched another missile strike. No, not at military facilities, not even at infrastructure facilities. This time in Kyiv, rockets flew INTO RESIDENTIAL QUARTERS! One rocket hit in Kyiv hit near the school. One rocket hit a residential building. 1.5 kilometers from the place where I live, a Russian rocket fell, which simply did not reach its target ...
These were not downed missiles, these were their GOALS - residential buildings, schools, hospitals .... In Kiev, 1 person died, 11 were seriously injured.
I believe in the victory of reason, civilization. And I really wish the destruction of rashism - this vile, vile, cowardly regime and its henchmen!
Ukraine and the entire adequate world are obliged to defeat rashism and their terrorism in 2023!
I wish that in all countries, there will be peace, prosperity in families, the restoration of the economy of your countries, and the opportunity to live in peace and enjoy life without hearing air raid warnings every day and without watching cruise missile explosions in neighboring houses!

Happy New Year !!!

There is a theory about the natural aggressiveness of Russians, I heard it even from the Russians themselves. 

However, I have a different vision of this situation.  Every person has two essences - the will to live and the will to die.  The will to live is Eros, the angel of life.  The will to die is Thanatos, the demon of death.  These two entities live in the soul of every person, moreover, they live in the collective unconscious of human communities. 

At present, in the collective unconscious of the Russians, Thanatos has defeated Eros.  The will to die has completely conquered the will to live. 

This is the reason for the catastrophe.

World? What world are you talking about? The world is not only US and Nato but the world consists of 203 countries. The Russians are still doing business with the superpowers China and India, two countries with a combined population of one-third of the world's population, and the whole of Asia has excellent relations with Russia. So far, the war is not over, and neither side has claimed victory, so I won't say that Russia is stronger or Ukraine is more robust in terms of motivation or professionalism you say. The result will be the most correct answer.

Russian has a history of war and they wake up one day and decide to attack and invade another country because they want to test their missile.
They are brutal and they love blood shed.
