@juskahusk2247 it also helps their god, provides jobs, Excetera. I heard poutn had a work program where former IBM programers were hired at near salary to sweep Streets. More situations like this will further the brain drain and zap russias economic potential.

@evolassunglasses4673 the gas that was going to Europe has been flaring off since August. Since the infrastructure for it was all west of the urals and russia has no LNG conversion capacity, how in heaven is that gas going to the global south? Another point. All but 3 south American about half of africa and almost 40% of Asian countries voted against russia 8n the UN. Meanwhile neutral counties like India have said they will follow the price cap on oil. russia is bent over a barrel on price and has no negotiation power. He's being taken to the cleaners by China and India.

Sanctions aren't meant to make the economy fall. Its supposed to limit their ability to make modern weapons. It has made a huge effect there. It's important to look at the sonnenfeld report. The IMF just repeat and canonise what russia puts out. russia no longer shows any of their work and just publishes what ever number they desire. Going by sonnenfelds methods of checking the russian imports and exports, russia looks a lot lot bleaker. Go by sonnenfeld not the numbers russia wants to pretend exist. Don't fall for the vranyo.
