Dang I didn't know they were that good mut be by they are still struggling to win this war and their economy must be doing good right and of course they haven't lost many people just a tiny bit like 500 thousand they are definitely succeeding. This is me being sarcastic don't actually believe this.
a similar thing happened in china, because the united states has imposed increasingly harsh restrictions on chinese students in american universities(unlike with indian students) china actually benefited from this, because now students are forced to stay in china preventing braindrain unlike with india.
@@JoelTopsom We have 300 billion in Russian assets because the oligarchs sent their money abroad before the war. Now, all the money they make stays in Russia.
the economy is dying but the journalist are like always full of crap because they wanna do click bait, and they know smooth brain like you would click and comment stuff like '' yeahhhh i knew it '' the economy is rising because of the mass spending. (spoiler every country can do that ) which is what happend with venezuela and grece. but look today where venezuela and grece are. both down because of the mass spending, WITHOUTH to get something back. (more production eccc...) what russia producing ? military Equipment, and how is that gonna boost the economy in the long term ?? you kids have no idea how economy works.
did you not see the end of the video? They're using up all their resources and manpower to barely take a piece of Ukraine. once the war is over they'll be left with little.
@SyifaToni-k3p This only depends on Russia's ability to expand their military market, with U.S. making so many enemies it's not that hard, previously they tried to maintain diplomatic and nice relationship with them, now when U.S. openly saying that Russia must be destroyed into 50 small countries, Putin must be overthrown etc, I don't see any reason to stop them from supplying lets say Houthis with anti-ship missiles, Iran & Korea with hypersonics, African countries are keen to get their hands on more modern tech and they can pay in raw resources via BRICS, South America loves Russian stuff as well, theres Cuba, Venezuela, Brazil to name a few. They already have requests for tanks, BTRS, S300 and S400 systems to cover them for a few years after war ends.
😂😂😂 putin has discovered how to destroy Russia while gaslighting the Russian people. Go look at your new mass graves of Russians. 550,000 dead. Look at your old military bases where your equipment used to be.😂😂😂 If putin had anything left he'd use it, he's so stupid. The only Russians who think they have a chance are the paid trolls, Russian mil bloggers know Russia is destroying itself and putin is begging for peace.😂
the poorer countries are too dumb to use their own minerals. this war effort is increasing the capability and homogenity of the russian people allowing them to develop their power

That is the multi billion/Trillion dollar question. During World War II, every day people bought bonds. From all over the world. Besides being traded on the stock market.

Financial crashes take time. Last time you guys went toe to toe with us, the Cold War, you guys lost your empire and almost all your money. Your country struggled for years. And now history repeats itself. You are on a glide path to disaster my friend. You can't win this. You have already seen it and are on your way to seeing it again.
@@christopheryellman533 One time use items that will help Russia in literally no way at all in the long term. Most of the stuff they're 'producing' at the moment is renovated and at best slightly upgraded soviet era crap. What are they gonna do with that industry after the war? Who are they even going to sell to? India's (Russia's historical biggest customer for military equipment) is already buying Western equipment en masse because Russia keeps cancelling or postponing the delivery of Indian orders such as with the S-400. I don't think India's going to be interested in renovated T-55 tanks. China (second biggest) was already surpassing Russia in every way with domestic productions and now with sanctions in place there's literally nothing the Chinese could buy from Russia they can't produce themselves. Russia's entire modus operandi was getting foreign orders to help fund R&D and achieve economy of scale (getting price per unit down) so who's going to fund the Russian defense industry post-war? Nobody, so expect a massive collapse of that industry. Russians gonna have to foot the bill for those seized Indian orders as well, because India's gonna want their T-90 tanks and S-400 systems they paid for and which Russia seized in order to use in Ukraine due to shortages and I don't think they're going to accept used stuff.
Not really. It sounds like a good thing, but really is just a nation stressing itself out. It just may work for a while, but risk collapsing the whole country in long run. Like dismantling your wooden house amidst Winter for fuel. Suddenly it seems warmer, but keep it awhile and you won't have a house anymore.
My 3 car garage is bigger than your dank Soviet apartment, Ivan. @sombong1423 Both Russia and China have killed millions of their people with starvation. Do you deny that fact?
the problem with war economy is that in the short term they are profitable but none of the manufactured good help keep the economy rolling, only weapons manufacturer profit while the rest of the economy standard manufacturing, service and good gets poorer. this has an impact only seen on the long term. russia pretend it's richer but thats only internally, on the global market they lost significantly.
Not really. Due to the sanctions, there is now massive investment in production and manufacturing in general, not just for military purposes. The market forces incentivize domestic production of goods that used to be imported from the EU or US. And even military investment is in large part dual use. You can look at the companies like Boeing and their contractors as examples of this
All the pro-ukraine fangirls are crying in the comments. All of a sudden they know more than the experts at the IMF and World Bank😂 Not only is Russia getting more revenue but it's slowly becoming the fastest growing economy in Europe. According to PPP figures, Russia already has the 5th largest economy in the world.
Take into account how large RU is and the population number. 5th place is embarrasing. France, Germany and the UK are small countries yet they are above RU, almost three times in GDP per capita as well 🤣 Safe to say we overestimated the self proclaimed strongest in the world
@@ashtray2294 Russia's economy is 4th place now according to the world bank. Russia has by far the smallest population out of the top 4 world economies. According to the most recent estimates by the London based world economics institute, Russia's GDP per capita is 55.5K compared to 60K in UK and 65K in France. But Russia's GDP per capita in only ethnic Russian regions would be higher.
Russia 🇷🇺 #1 Economy in Europe and #4 in the World. It surpassed Germany and Japan since 2021 and this year, its economy will grow faster than all of the "West" including the US😂😂😂
And yet those sanctions works pretty effectively. The russian central bank certainly thinks so. But people seem to think civilians consume 152mm shells or that you can pay the chinese for their goods in ppp prices instead of the amount in yuan they actually demand... Go figure ;p. I would asy those people have lost their minds, but it's more likely they never understood the first thing about economy to begin with ^^.
New in: Russia saving billions from reduction in pensions, prison costs and decreased need for housing. All for the small cost of reducing its population.
@@legatilegions8055 "Educated".. Hahaha. Educated in what. They lost few university cracks that does nothin except philosophing ang theorising and are pro-west They still have best rocket engineers so that's enough
All of this is completel illogical. If this was true in any way, every country would go into full war time economy all of the time and become richer and richer.
Not every country has land, resources and as patriotic as Russia. Less SJW and feministm to ruin their patriotic value there. Like or not if you go to war you need a strong leader as their morale symbol. Now i asking you. How many people in the west want to die for Biden, Sunak, Macron and Ursula ?
Nope the world bank just declared them the strongest economy in 2024...they are trading with china and india and the middle east, the sanctions do not hurt them at all
The oil and gold pays for it all while they took American businesses that take money outside Russia and instead they gave it to russians. The sanctions has ment that all money they use to spend of Europe is just sitting in Russia now
That parallels GDP growth of China by building 90 million apartments which were never occupied and are now being torn down. GDP is only meaningful if it represents production that consumers want. The war is consuming Russia's production. Russia's financial reserves appear to be on course to be depleted in 5 months.
1. Russia is taking away its own lands with which it has a history, ethnic component and cultural connection. More Russian soldiers died there in the entire history of those lands than there are Ukrainian soldiers in Ukraine r-now. 2. Russia started this war not without reasons, Russia did not touch other countries. Fairy tales about Georgia and so on are calmly shattered both legally and according to the conclusion of the same UN where Russia is not the aggressor 3. Russia is already creating these technologies 4. This money is built primarily not on war, but because of sanctions that showed the vulnerabilities of the Russian market and which Russia is trying to close
A lot of high technology is what's called dual use. You can use it for military and civillian purposes. Have no fear, the Russians will find a civillian use for the high technology in their military equipment.
@@rainyvideos3684 but the Russians dont have high technology. They don't produce chips, and they still have to buy those chips from the west / taiwan or south korea through parallel imports, which costs them a lot more. If they didn't go to war, they could have started their own years long research without bigger problems. Read about how the Baikal processor failed - a russian domestic chip based on intel's technology. Russia primarily produces tanks and artillery shells. Not much use for anything else. It spends so much on sallaries for the soldiers, and they are dying too, making Russia dependant on exporting labour to third countries.
@@mitrogulf4073 so you think russia needs sanctions to know which parts of it's own market are vulnerable? They are vulnerable, not because "nobody knew about them", they are vulnerable because Russia is dependant on western or taiwanese / japanese chips to build anything, and it takes years of domestic research and hard work and money, money money to have your own domestic high tech markets. Russia simply imports those good through third countries which adds an additional cost for Russia. The conflict with Georgia is not a fairy tale, go to the enclaves of South Ossetia and Abkhasia. It's the same story again, Russian soldiers enter in 2008, and set up these fake countries no one recognizes. Just like with DNR and LNR. Fairy tales is what you are saying. And you claim about "historical lands" is just sickening. Think about it, what would happen if every country in Europe started behaving like Russia and "reclaiming" some stupid lands. Millions of people would die AGAIN. Because if you believe that you have any right to cross the border of a country and start shooting people and "reclaim" your country's land, you are a mentally disabled person, and you should be locked in an asylum. Before the full scale war in 2022 people in Mariupol, Berdiansk and Energodar were living normally. There are videos from that time. No protests, no fighting. There were nice plays in the Mariupol children's theatre. And then the Russians came and all those cities look like out of a ww2 movie set right now. If the Russians claim that they were "liberating" then why did they bomb those cities so much. Why did they arrive with guns to places that they were not welcome to? Look at Germany and Austria. They can have separate countries and everyone lives normally. The fact that someone speaks Russian doesn't mean that they have to be slaves of Moscow. In your profile you have the prussian eagle if I am not mistaken. Do you also believe that Germany should "reclaim" Kaliningrad and Polish Warmia - Masuria territories? Would you happily see the German army march into Poland and kill everyone to "reclaim and resettle" those "ancestral lands"? Cmon, admit it. You are a Nazi scum. Nothing less. Because only Nazis support Russia, they would want all Europeans to be killed in countless wars, instead of enjoy the peace and stability that the EU offers us. Go to hell.
These are all the wrong things for a healthy economy. Spending massive amounts on weapons and ammo that gets expended or damaged is just a waste of money that could have gone for health care, educating future workers, or improving infrastructure. Taking productive employees and putting them in the battlefield and then having to pay others higher wages to replace people who were drafted will destroy their economy. Russia is about to experience a depression the likes of which the world has never seen.
@@cyber8000 actually no. More like the depression experienced by German, France, Italy, Russia and England after the war. It was so bad the British didn’t re-elect Churchill after the war because their economy was in shambles. After WW2 the US was the only major power untouched by the war and didn’t lose the men that were lost by the other nations. Russia lost millions. Maybe instead of thinking your smart pick up a history book so you don’t embarrass yourself again with your ignorance….
If you're referring to the USA this makes sense but you must surely at this point be tired of waiting for Russia to collapse. It's not going to happen mate. Every economic indicator is strong. I think even God must be on their side since all Nazis are fighting in support of Ukraine.
@@t.r.e.v.o.r_s.m.i.t.h The 500,000 Russian dead soldiers are western propaganda. Russia has lost a fraction of that according to US ex-military analysts, Ukraine is the one who has lost over half a million soldiers and counting, the ratio of casualties is seven to one, in Russia's favor. You're assuming, which you know what happens when you assumed things don't ya? A lot of those Russians that moved abroad did so to open Russian business in nearby countries to by-pass western sanctions and continue importing goods into Russia. You need to do more research before posting incorrect information.
@@t.r.e.v.o.r_s.m.i.t.hit has another very important reason: they use official data, not real data. They measure it with how much rubel a russian makes, and how many dollars you get for that. The official exchange rate atm is around 88 rubel per dollar, but in reality, in Russia you have to pay, at least, 150 rubel for a dollar. You can sell a dollar for 88 rubels to the banks, but you can't buy it for that. So if you use an exchange rate, that's around 2 times more than in reality, ofc you get wrong and impressive numbers. The collapse of the rubel, and how everyone tried to buy dollars, proves, that the dollar stays the one, most important currency in the world. Most things are traded with dollars, and what happened to the rubel, showed, nobody trusts the rubel, but people trust the dollar 🤷♂️
@@t.r.e.v.o.r_s.m.i.t.hget off politics it’s ruining your mind First of all 500000 dead? Are you serious? Even BBC news admmited that Russia lost around 50k soldiers 6 months ago. Know I bet it’s around 80k Second more than half of the people that left Russia came back afterwards And for some reason your excluding the population of the territorial gains from Ukraine that Russia got which has atleast a 10M. Also Russia deports Ukrainians to Russia at a high amount a couple million

Such a sad reality seeing Russians from the poor regions have a first chance in their lifetime to get out of abysmal poverty and that is by going to spill blood and terrorizing the civilians in the name of a dictator
It is the same in the US. US have sent all its poor, minorities to their wars so that US can get wealthier. There is difference. It is only evil when evil Russia allegedly does this. The US intentionally makes it miserable for the poor and minorities so that they can be forced into joining the military or be jailed.
Did Putin make this video?!! 😂😂. When a government spends billions in taxpayer money for zero infrastructural gain (only damage from drones) it makes the country poorer, not richer!! 😂
We have friends and family in Russia. They have simply gotten poor. Food have doubled in prices - consumer goods out of their reach. They hate the war, but have to pretend.
The more Russians that go into endless sleep on the battlefield, the Russian money is shared by fewer people. When only one Russian person is left, they will be very RICH!
Can't your mind cope with the truth 😂 the western sanctions helped Russia become a high income country. Imagine how embarrassing for the west 😂 everything they do backfire and fails 😂
You miss the point of sanctions if you think it's meant to crash the economy of a country the size of Russia, they have resources and industry of their own. The purpose of these sanctions is to increase costs, limit special materials needed for certain technologies, and to put Russia into debt. Russia's GDP is going straight into the meatgrinder, which hey, it shores up your warmaking ability sure, but it drains every other sector out there. Countries that go onto total economic war footings will obviously see a big boost in GDP, but GDP doesn't pay off debts. Ask the British Empire during the 1st World War, or Germany during the 2nd, the Roman Republic... There will be jobs, will be money borrowed and spent, and there will be a drive in production. But what happens to them after the war? Ask the British Empire... or the Nazi's... the Romans. Huge deficit spending, inflation, and reorienting the Russian economy is going to absolutely wreck the already massively underperforming Russian economy not long after some cessation of hostilities.
@urdailygamr9229 I'm well aware of my country's debt. Debt was only one factor I stated, but I see you want to hyperfixate on something you recognize as a buzzword thrown around by idiots without actually knowing what debt is.

Imagine how Russia will improve after they control the Black Sea, all the good farmland in Ukraine and lots of minerals it has, not mentioning boost to population.
Keep dreaming go take a look with google streetview through the non-tourist areas of the Russian Federation. The only thing missing is radiation and you could imagine being in Pripyat. They couldn't even improve their own country. They're not going to unlock a next skill tier by conquering some more farmland. They can't even use all the farmland they already had in their own country. Most of that land is gonna lay fallow and that's if they succeed at all. As for a population boost. A lot of Russians fled and a lot of them died or got wounded. They're going to be lucky if it's a zero sum operation.

Lmao who cares about the EU 😂 china is their biggest trading partner and also India. China's market is larger than the whole EU combined. Plus their gas revenue rose more than 40%. Also India alone replaced the EU as the oil and gas buyer of Russia 😂 do some research kid😂😂
This is not surprising. Russia began to invest more in its own production of electronics, food and materials, because of this, money began to flow into regional cities for new factories. It has become more difficult for oligarchs to withdraw and store stolen or even honestly earned money, abroad, so they have to leave it all within the country itself and begin to compete with each other in the domestic market, the jumps in the ruble force them to do this. Its in their interests to strengthen the currency and stabilize the economy. Many people began to start their own businesses or switch to work in Russian companies, since many foreign companies left Russia and workers lost their jobs, which is why less money went to foreign companies. Plus, this encouraged them to trade more intensively on the market with countries like China, India, South Africa, and so on, while payments are made not in dollars, but in their own currencies. That's why lot of exotic products appeared in Russia that came from southern and eastern Asia. Mango, as an example, became a rather cheap product, so much so that cakes, juices with them began to appear everywhere, carbonated drinks like Cola with mango flavor appeared, and so on. Many products, like cola, which is still imported and made in factories, have competitors (who taste almost the same and sometimes have even more varied versions). People now have more choice within their own market of drinks, juices, and alcohol, since many branded monopolists (conditional) either disappeared or had high prices inside Russia, which is why people began to choose something else, and often from their own products.
Producing non productive assets with rapid depreciation on the battlefield is not a sign of increased wealth. Quite the opposite actually. In fact it's throwing money away. 🤣🤣🤣

An example of economic growth in Russian: a company is awarded a government contract to dig a hole at a cost of USD 1 billion. Second government contract, fills in a large hole, costs USD 1 billion. GDP has therefore "grown" by 2 billion. Find the mistake.
You are more talking about the USA with all the useless middle men overinflating GDP, military industrial complex, overfinancialization, etc. and their GDP counting things such as imputated rents as if owners who live in their own home paid a rent
I was thinking the same thing. 3 million Russians are working in the military industry, so of course they produce and contribute to the GDP. But the goods (=weapons) are not benefitting the economy, they are just consumed in the war. Had they produced goods of economically lasting utility (like tractors, infrastructure, schools), they would have been far better off. 22.6% of Russians do not have indoor plumbing. In rural Russia, almost 2/3rd's have no access to indoor toilets, 48.1% use outhouses and 18.4% do not have a sewage system.
@@heyyo162 The weapons are contributing to the economy. Long term. Forinstance, russia is earning more people from conquest than they are losing. Secondly, all that land they take must have resources that will no doubt be plundered. I recall seeing some of the cities they took having some sort of mines or whatever. All seems well considering that they are in full scale war. These other things you say are downright silly considering even the US has remote rural areas where people live in worse conditions than in 3rd world nations.... Did someone tell you that russia is Qatar? Few nations are completely well off. Income inequality exists in all nations world wide. With the exception of places like qatar or other places with vast resources and low pops.
@@alispeed5095 OMGosh! American GDP/Capita is 7 times the one of Russia. The entire total GDP of Russia is BELOW Italy. Russia, despite being the heir of the Soviet empire with vast human and natural resources perform soooo lousy. People do not realise how much of dull incompetent pile of garbage Putin and his regime is. They effectively devastated the most important aspect of their export market, replacing it with devastated ukrainian soil. A few mines here and there, yes, but Russia has hundreds of unexploited ore reserves anyway. Will not add significantly to the economy.
Guns vs. butter from macroeconomics. Russian economy is similar to US economy growth during World War 2 after Great Depression. Caveat is that this growth cannot last forever. After World War 2, US had a post war recession attempting to shift production priorities and finding civilian jobs for veterans. A similar situation is likely for Russia.
This also happened in the Soviet union before it collapsed from a war of attrition with Afghanistan and subsequent uprisings and military fights throughout Europe and Asia during the cold war
Not really. Much like today's Rusdia, the USSR's secondary sector was propped up by enourmous military expenditure, with high salaries for workers spurring higher consumption and rampant inflation.
They're just printing money to fund it. There are more people employed fighting the war and all of the new civilian jobs associated with keeping the war machine running. The thing is that they aren't actually getting anything out of the war that comes anywhere near what it is costing them. So they are printing and borrowing money. They've completely restructured their economy around the war efforts, it may be seemingly working for them now but a countries economy has to adapt and remain competitive with other countries' economies or it will be left behind. A centrally managed one is always prone to becoming out-moded compared to ones that are not. Think of all those economists and oil executives in Russia who have "fallen" out of sky scraper windows: those were the reasonable people. Eventually a wheel will fall off and a catastrophic failure will follow immediately after.
Actually, Russia hasn't money-printed nearly to the extent the USA has, and spends a much lower fraction of its GDP on the military than we do. They are actually one of the most stable nations in the world in managing debt.
how long before their reserves run out. also russia is stopping its citizens from withdrawing money and their inflation is at 20%. very misleading title the data is completely interpreted wrongly
Satellite images of their tank storage facilities show that Russia is hard pressed due to a lack of tanks.

The RF EW capabilities failed completely in UA and they are unable to defend against even consumer-level drones.

Largely due to the oil price soaring up on war time, which may provoke Russia or other oil producing countries with military power to occur wars on purpose when they are in recession. To break through their economical turmoil by occurring war is war crime that has not yet abided by international laws and regulations by any body so far. So, coping with the price of oil with Russia is the key to ceasefire.
So funny! Oil has gone up because sanctions took direct-sales Russian oil off the Western market, so that we now buy that exact same oil from them via middlemen that mark it up en route.

Who are they even going to sell to? India's (Russia's historical biggest customer for military equipment) is already buying Western equipment en masse because Russia keeps cancelling or postponing the delivery of Indian orders such as with the S-400. I don't think India's going to be interested in renovated T-55 tanks. China (second biggest) was already surpassing Russia in every way with domestic productions and now with sanctions in place there's literally nothing the Chinese could buy from Russia they can't produce themselves. Russia's entire modus operandi was getting foreign orders to help fund R&D and achieve economy of scale (getting price per unit down) so who's going to fund the Russian defense industry post-war? Nobody, so expect a massive collapse of that industry. Russians gonna have to foot the bill for those seized Indian orders as well, because India's gonna want their T-90 tanks and S-400 systems they paid for and which Russia seized in order to use in Ukraine due to shortages and I don't think they're going to accept used stuff.

The oil and gold pays for it all while they took American businesses that take money outside Russia and instead they gave it to russians. The sanctions has ment that all money they use to spend of Europe is just sitting in Russia now
That parallels GDP growth of China by building 90 million apartments which were never occupied and are now being torn down. GDP is only meaningful if it represents production that consumers want.

Perhaps you are talking about Ukrainian soldiers?
You can base your economy on war, but it's much better to have it based on high technology and finances rather than destroying countries around you
1. Russia is taking away its own lands with which it has a history, ethnic component and cultural connection. More Russian soldiers died there in the entire history of those lands than there are Ukrainian soldiers in Ukraine r-now.
2. Russia started this war not without reasons, Russia did not touch other countries. Fairy tales about Georgia and so on are calmly shattered both legally and according to the conclusion of the same UN where Russia is not the aggressor
3. Russia is already creating these technologies
4. This money is built primarily not on war, but because of sanctions that showed the vulnerabilities of the Russian market and which Russia is trying to close
A lot of high technology is what's called dual use. You can use it for military and civillian purposes. Have no fear, the Russians will find a civillian use for the high technology in their military equipment.
@@rainyvideos3684 but the Russians dont have high technology. They don't produce chips, and they still have to buy those chips from the west / taiwan or south korea through parallel imports, which costs them a lot more. If they didn't go to war, they could have started their own years long research without bigger problems. Read about how the Baikal processor failed - a russian domestic chip based on intel's technology. Russia primarily produces tanks and artillery shells. Not much use for anything else. It spends so much on sallaries for the soldiers, and they are dying too, making Russia dependant on exporting labour to third countries.
@@mitrogulf4073 so you think russia needs sanctions to know which parts of it's own market are vulnerable? They are vulnerable, not because "nobody knew about them", they are vulnerable because Russia is dependant on western or taiwanese / japanese chips to build anything, and it takes years of domestic research and hard work and money, money money to have your own domestic high tech markets. Russia simply imports those good through third countries which adds an additional cost for Russia.
The conflict with Georgia is not a fairy tale, go to the enclaves of South Ossetia and Abkhasia. It's the same story again, Russian soldiers enter in 2008, and set up these fake countries no one recognizes. Just like with DNR and LNR. Fairy tales is what you are saying. And you claim about "historical lands" is just sickening. Think about it, what would happen if every country in Europe started behaving like Russia and "reclaiming" some stupid lands. Millions of people would die AGAIN. Because if you believe that you have any right to cross the border of a country and start shooting people and "reclaim" your country's land, you are a mentally disabled person, and you should be locked in an asylum. Before the full scale war in 2022 people in Mariupol, Berdiansk and Energodar were living normally. There are videos from that time. No protests, no fighting. There were nice plays in the Mariupol children's theatre. And then the Russians came and all those cities look like out of a ww2 movie set right now. If the Russians claim that they were "liberating" then why did they bomb those cities so much. Why did they arrive with guns to places that they were not welcome to?
Look at Germany and Austria. They can have separate countries and everyone lives normally. The fact that someone speaks Russian doesn't mean that they have to be slaves of Moscow.
In your profile you have the prussian eagle if I am not mistaken. Do you also believe that Germany should "reclaim" Kaliningrad and Polish Warmia - Masuria territories? Would you happily see the German army march into Poland and kill everyone to "reclaim and resettle" those "ancestral lands"? Cmon, admit it. You are a Nazi scum. Nothing less. Because only Nazis support Russia, they would want all Europeans to be killed in countless wars, instead of enjoy the peace and stability that the EU offers us. Go to hell.

You miss the point of sanctions if you think it's meant to crash the economy of a country the size of Russia, they have resources and industry of their own. The purpose of these sanctions is to increase costs, limit special materials needed for certain technologies, and to put Russia into debt. Russia's GDP is going straight into the meatgrinder, which hey, it shores up your warmaking ability sure, but it drains every other sector out there.
Countries that go onto total economic war footings will obviously see a big boost in GDP, but GDP doesn't pay off debts. Ask the British Empire during the 1st World War, or Germany during the 2nd, the Roman Republic... There will be jobs, will be money borrowed and spent, and there will be a drive in production. But what happens to them after the war? Ask the British Empire... or the Nazi's... the Romans. Huge deficit spending, inflation, and reorienting the Russian economy is going to absolutely wreck the already massively underperforming Russian economy not long after some cessation of hostilities.

Imagine how Russia will improve after they control the Black Sea, all the good farmland in Ukraine and lots of minerals it has, not mentioning boost to population.
Keep dreaming go take a look with google streetview through the non-tourist areas of the Russian Federation. The only thing missing is radiation and you could imagine being in Pripyat. They couldn't even improve their own country. They're not going to unlock a next skill tier by conquering some more farmland. They can't even use all the farmland they already had in their own country. Most of that land is gonna lay fallow and that's if they succeed at all. As for a population boost. A lot of Russians fled and a lot of them died or got wounded. They're going to be lucky if it's a zero sum operation.

@@aquere omfffffG r u kidding, u r joking right? think deeper
During war times smart countried fix problems like that without boosting enemies and showing ur own weaknesses in media n news.
Ex: u would never see media or news in Russia, china, iran and ur enemy countries media and news talk positive of ur country esp war time
During war time, no countries tell any truth that help enemy countries to take over ur country to torture, enslave, rap e, kill n worse to u, ur love ones n other people.
Or u can name countried who do that during war time and won wars? Mostly countries who lost wars do what insidet did
U said so they should hide the truth!!??
99.999% of the truth u will never see nor hear in media and news. Those r inner circle, behind doors same as ur bosses or government doing things without tellin u.
Only things they want u to believe r things they put on news for u to watch. Most u dont see, censor, ban, not in media amd news.
If showimg weakness is what they want u to see and hear then they might have hidden agenda for why they show u this news instead of countless other news or they just incompetent or corrupt by doin what no countries during war time do to help enemy country win war

Russia has lost 1.5 million The Russian government announced two months ago that revenues had declined 45%. They also announced that they would stop exporting gas -- because they don't ahve enough to export. The war has cost Russia perhaps 2 trillion dollars -- their gdp for 1-1/2 years. Their military has been decimated, havinv lost half their tanks and artillery, and 1/3 of their aircraft. No-one is getting rich. Clibkbait.

What a BS report.
Haters gonna hate
its facts learn it
Yeah, yeah, you know better than the world bank, IMF and every legitimate global financial institution because of your little feelings.
This is not surprising. Russia began to invest more in its own production of electronics, food and materials, because of this, money began to flow into regional cities for new factories. It has become more difficult for oligarchs to withdraw and store stolen or even honestly earned money, abroad, so they have to leave it all within the country itself and begin to compete with each other in the domestic market, the jumps in the ruble force them to do this. Its in their interests to strengthen the currency and stabilize the economy.
Many people began to start their own businesses or switch to work in Russian companies, since many foreign companies left Russia and workers lost their jobs, which is why less money went to foreign companies. Plus, this encouraged them to trade more intensively on the market with countries like China, India, South Africa, and so on, while payments are made not in dollars, but in their own currencies. That's why lot of exotic products appeared in Russia that came from southern and eastern Asia. Mango, as an example, became a rather cheap product, so much so that cakes, juices with them began to appear everywhere, carbonated drinks like Cola with mango flavor appeared, and so on.
Many products, like cola, which is still imported and made in factories, have competitors (who taste almost the same and sometimes have even more varied versions). People now have more choice within their own market of drinks, juices, and alcohol, since many branded monopolists (conditional) either disappeared or had high prices inside Russia, which is why people began to choose something else, and often from their own products.
Space program - wrecked. International arms sales - wrecked. Ruble - wrecked. Cash reserves - wrecked. Armored vehicles - wrecked. Yeah, it's going great.
Producing non productive assets with rapid depreciation on the battlefield is not a sign of increased wealth. Quite the opposite actually. In fact it's throwing money away. 🤣🤣🤣
Spending all the money to military and losing 500000 young men surely contributes to economy. This is just a firework wait few years

@@MissKae_85 the issue here isn’t about who knows more. The issue is about being transparent when reporting financial data, which they are not doing. One reporting financial data, one must reveal anything that would potentially create false beliefs. In this case, when reporting financial data, it would be imperative to note that this financial data and these conclusions are drawn based entirely on a wartime economy. That would mean providing data where the economy would stand excluding wartime production. that is an enormous distinction and without that data, the entire story is fiction.

An example of economic growth in Russian: a company is awarded a government contract to dig a hole at a cost of USD 1 billion. Second government contract, fills in a large hole, costs USD 1 billion. GDP has therefore "grown" by 2 billion. Find the mistake.
right.....
You are more talking about the USA with all the useless middle men overinflating GDP, military industrial complex, overfinancialization, etc. and their GDP counting things such as imputated rents as if owners who live in their own home paid a rent
I was thinking the same thing. 3 million Russians are working in the military industry, so of course they produce and contribute to the GDP. But the goods (=weapons) are not benefitting the economy, they are just consumed in the war. Had they produced goods of economically lasting utility (like tractors, infrastructure, schools), they would have been far better off. 22.6% of Russians do not have indoor plumbing. In rural Russia, almost 2/3rd's have no access to indoor toilets, 48.1% use outhouses and 18.4% do not have a sewage system.
@@heyyo162 The weapons are contributing to the economy. Long term. Forinstance, russia is earning more people from conquest than they are losing.
Secondly, all that land they take must have resources that will no doubt be plundered.
I recall seeing some of the cities they took having some sort of mines or whatever.
All seems well considering that they are in full scale war. These other things you say are downright silly considering even the US has remote rural areas where people live in worse conditions than in 3rd world nations....

@@alispeed5095 OMGosh! American GDP/Capita is 7 times the one of Russia. The entire total GDP of Russia is BELOW Italy. Russia, despite being the heir of the Soviet empire with vast human and natural resources perform soooo lousy. People do not realise how much of dull incompetent pile of garbage Putin and his regime is. They effectively devastated the most important aspect of their export market, replacing it with devastated ukrainian soil. A few mines here and there, yes, but Russia has hundreds of unexploited ore reserves anyway. Will not add significantly to the economy.
Fallacy of the broken window.
It's making money that's not being invested in anything that directly helps the Russian people, not creating wealth to be spread around.
And what they do? They eat those money or burn them?
Олигархи и правительство перестали вывозить из России Деньги.

Guns vs. butter from macroeconomics. Russian economy is similar to US economy growth during World War 2 after Great Depression.
Caveat is that this growth cannot last forever. After World War 2, US had a post war recession attempting to shift production priorities and finding civilian jobs for veterans. A similar situation is likely for Russia.
After WW2 the US decided to just wage war all the time...
Russia doesn't have a war economy. Social welfare spending alone was a higher portion of the budget than military spending.
We have 2 percent unemployment, veterans will have something to do when they return
This also happened in the Soviet union before it collapsed from a war of attrition with Afghanistan and subsequent uprisings and military fights throughout Europe and Asia during the cold war
Two completely different economies, they are not even the same kind of economy. So your comparison makes absolutely no sense.
Not really. Much like today's Rusdia, the USSR's secondary sector was propped up by enourmous military expenditure, with high salaries for workers spurring higher consumption and rampant inflation.
You're honestly dumb to compare them Soviet union and today Russian both use two different systems but you're slow to see it
IMF and WB:
Russia 🇷🇺 #1 Economy in Europe
Russia 🇷🇺 #4 Economy in the World.
soon the legacy media will discover a new "surprise"
They're just printing money to fund it. There are more people employed fighting the war and all of the new civilian jobs associated with keeping the war machine running. The thing is that they aren't actually getting anything out of the war that comes anywhere near what it is costing them. So they are printing and borrowing money. They've completely restructured their economy around the war efforts, it may be seemingly working for them now but a countries economy has to adapt and remain competitive with other countries' economies or it will be left behind. A centrally managed one is always prone to becoming out-moded compared to ones that are not. Think of all those economists and oil executives in Russia who have "fallen" out of sky scraper windows: those were the reasonable people. Eventually a wheel will fall off and a catastrophic failure will follow immediately after.
Sounds like your describing America also lol
Actually, Russia hasn't money-printed nearly to the extent the USA has, and spends a much lower fraction of its GDP on the military than we do. They are actually one of the most stable nations in the world in managing debt.

Largely due to the oil price soaring up on war time, which may provoke Russia or other oil producing countries with military power to occur wars on purpose when they are in recession. To break through their economical turmoil by occurring war is war crime that has not yet abided by international laws and regulations by any body so far. So, coping with the price of oil with Russia is the key to ceasefire.
So funny! Oil has gone up because sanctions took direct-sales Russian oil off the Western market, so that we now buy that exact same oil from them via middlemen that mark it up en route.
so they're both about to go bankrupt and getting rich... got it
