  46.  @medeology4660  throwing some some figures out there and making up one's own conclusions to suit a biased narrative, indicates an ignorance of the real issues. With Russia's GDP having grown so quickly, the economy started overheating and therefore the central bank head, who happens to be a very competent economist, deemed it necessary to consistently push up the interest rate to quench the pent up demand. The inflation figure of 10% you cited is overstated by about 1,5%, which is not out of the ordinary for an economy whose citizens have a lot more spending power and therefore pushing demand without being met by a concomitant supply side. The rest of the rhetoric that was stated to bolster the gobbledygook, was based on assumptions that only somebody who was clueless, would make. The thought that Russia is reliant on weapons production to derive it's GDP, is ridiculous in the extreme. Unbeknownst to most people in the west, Russia is supplying vast amounts of gas to the EU countries sanctioning Russia, albeit at a substantial premium. Russia has the world's richest supply of natural resources and it's vast grain production is being supplied to China, who has broken its contracts with the other western grain suppliers such as Australia, Canada etc. From an investment perspective, many western countries are still heavily invested in Russia and China is pumping vast amounts of capital into Russia. Relying on western propaganda to make a case can sometimes make one look foolish but we won't hold it against you.
