Dude, as I said, do you even know what 4% GDP growth in a 10% inflation rate mean?
Imagine knowing. GDP growth and inflation have a weak correlation, and 10% does not eat up the 4% you think.
Now I'll tell you something. High inflation in Russia is connected with high wage growth. This is the main driver of inflation. High wage growth is due to a shortage of labour ( and this is with unemployment less than 2% and 5,000,000 migrants ) And in order to keep employees employers are forced to raise wages . High wage growth stimulates loans, which again fuels inflation. With high wages, people tend to buy flats, cars and other expensive goods. To cool interest in loans, the Central Bank maintains a high interest rate. Now, according to statistics, the interest in loans is decreasing.
 
Russians should be asking for a refund. Thermal blankets, when used improperly, do not work:

Russian Telegram channel. In the article.

Not everyone in Russia posting on Telegram is rooting for Team Russia.

You misunderstood what I said, I didn't say that 10% inflation eat up the 4% growth, I said it leaked off the fat (as in when you cook a steak) yes, you are having 4% growth, but that's end of the year one off, that 10% inflation is day by day (Not saying you get 10% today and 10% tomorrow) and eventually, even if you fill the pond for 4% of water, the leak is bigger, that 4% will eventually dripped off.

And wage growth won't get 10% inflation as a country as a whole, you would have to double or triple the salary for everyone in a year to be able to do that, we have a 15% pay increase every year in Australia with 2 to 3% inflation, you do the maths.

On the other hand, if you have double or triple the salary, you also deflate your own currency, because you need to "print more" to get paid, that's the reason you have an higher salary, because 1 rouble today worth less than 1 rouble back 2 years ago. It wasn't the other way around.
 
I only see USA plans working well.
What can do Europe, Europe doesnt exist as entity.
It exists every European state with different interests and leaders bribed from Washington. Hard to do something in that scenario :ROFLMAO:.

The thing is: USA doesnt need Europe anymore, and Europe richness is dangerous for USA when cheap energy and raw materials start to decline.

USA is dropping European vassals using Ukraine/Russia excuse.
And USA will drop GCC vassals using Israel/Iran excuse.

USA doesnt want to sell anything. Selling USA energy to Europe was just a way to control Europe decisions these years, but the real target is make a war that will destroy European industries and richness.

USA doesnt need money, doesnt need to sell or buy anything.
USA just need to keep the rest of world underdeveloped to decrease energy and raw materials consumption. Like they already did in Iraq and Libya, but now in a very larger scale.
Yes but stupid european countries do not realize that obvious fact.
 
Lose everything? You could have used Euros to buy cheap oil and gas if only if you didn't become an American poodle and expanded NATO. The Russians want to be European, don't you get it? Gosh, anyhow, it is a plus for China, if all the Whites unite, we are fcked.
Nato is not a threat to Russia.

if Ukraine still keeps nuclear weapons or joins the Nato this war would not happen.

of course for Europe it’s dumb to rely on the US for security.
the same dumb thing to rely on Russia for energy supply or China for cheap imports.
 
China won't be able to make your resource counted twice. And whether or not China want to take this particular hot piece of garbage is another question, why would they dump trillion dollars (with a T) on Russia every year? What they got in return??

Meanwhile Trump can say whatever he wanted, he is not in charge, first of all, it's a war between Russia and Ukraine, not US, US does not have troop in Ukraine like they were in Afghanistan, the absolute input for Trump is zero. second of all, EU already displaced US as leading country in aid in both military aid and civilian aid.

In fact, what can Trump do? You know why he didn't lift the sanction for Russia? Because he can't, that was passed by bill into law, he is 8 senator short to roll back any sanction package already passed. Trump role in Ukraine war is minimal.

And finally, you say that EU money is nothing because they weren't back with anything, well, then someone obviously didn't tell the EU that. I mean, money is money, just because you think they are paper money does not mean they don't have value, in fact, there are more Euro in any given countries than what Russia can produce in a year as a whole, well, then I guess the world didn't get the memo that Euro worth nothing then......

lol
Are you under the rock? China buys energy, ore and minerals from Russia and process it to final products that you buy in your walmart, we can say that you finance putin war machine everyday, lol.
I never saw stranger cope out about defeat than yours one, you are in silent treatment about usa withdrawal from game completely and talking giberish about russian economy which is more or less irrelevant for war outcome,

It is easy to say, that one is dumb, other thing is dumb but no solution given.
Europe is tailored on its own measure being american slave and lapdog, at the end it was their choice.

yes, the europeans should know it better. they should build their own defence.
Russia is always a threat to Europe. it will never change. the russians will never change. impossible to change their mentality.

you can convert the once aggressive germans or japanese into peaceful folks but not the barbaric civilisations.

Angela Merkel says she knows the russians want to destroy the EU. but what did she? she hoped more trades, more coziness would change the russians.
now we have the payday. the hell.

Agree with that and now americans delivered the check.
Harsh times in most inconvenient moment for europe with slow economy, divisive and fragmented subjects without common vision.
But i know europe better then you it is old whore (name given not without reason) and it will wiggle out of ukrainian mess same as americans if that means preserving comfortable way of life for it.

most IQs were killed off or burned in gas chambers, the rest was migrated to Israel and the US.
that’s why Europe is dumbed down.
