  1.  @floujou24  Russia is six-th economy in the world, strongly underestimated by the western statistic.

  2.  @D-E-S_8559  Due to the IMF estimates, Russian GDP / PPP is the same as of Germany - six-th largest in the world with 3% of the world GDP/PPP.

  3. If you are a law-abiding businessman, then you should show in your books the profit as it is.

  4. Judging by the fact that int. corporations remain in Russia despite the risk of US sanctions being applied to them, business environment supposedly is favorable: GDP and consumer sectors are growing, inflation is lower than in Europe, the criminal situation is calm. We do not have street riots, shoplifting and pogroms as in USA or France.

  6.  @PeterSweden-qw8dy  You have made the common mistake of calculating GDP at face value. Look at the table of the world's GDP countries by purchasing power parity. GDP/PPP!!!

  7.  @PeterSweden-qw8dy  Per capita GDP shows the standard of living, but does not show the size of the economy.

  8.  @PeterSweden-qw8dy  Now the statistics of all countries are distorted by the pandemic, crisis, sanctions and war. But in order to have a general idea of the level of development, we can proceed from the following numbers: Russia's GDP = Germany's GDP; The standard of living in Russia is 50% of the level of Sweden, but 2.5 times higher than in Ukraine.

  9.  @sergeykish  Russia is not engaged in looting in Ukraine. We are already rebuilding the cities destroyed by Ukraine (redevelopment of Mariupol is underway). Ukrainian latest crime is the explosion of the Kakhovskaya Dam. We will repair it too. Moscow is recognized by UNESCO as the most comfortable metropolis in the world, but it is not the richest city in Russia. You just don't understand statistics and don't know what the МРОТ means.

  10.  @Рашка-у8й  Russian GDP per capita (in purchasing power parity) 30K-32K per year for each person. Open statistic IMF or WB - GDP based on purchasing-power-parity (PPP) per capita. The common Western mistake is - underestimating of Russia

  11.  @Рашка-у8й  To compare the cost of living in different countries, the so-called Big Mac index is used. The Big Mac index is the cost of a hamburger in the McDonald's chain. Big Mac contains meat, vegetables, cheese, bread and other products. Its cost also includes rental of premises and equipment, energy, labor, taxies and many other factors. The most important thing is that the products are strictly the identical in all countries. Weight: 230 grams Caloric content: 522 kcal . Studies are conducted by the English reputable magazine "The Economist". Global price of a Big Mac as of Big Mac Index 2020: Norway – $7; Switzerland – $6.5; USA – $5.1; Estonia - $4.7; Ukraine - $2.17; Russia - $1.91.

  15. Russia considers Western sanctions illegal, immoral and useless.
