>Russia spends around 6% of GDP on war>trade supluswhy didn't sanctions work?
>>540591249Sanctions imposed by a jailhouse thug on the guy who can get anything inside is just posturing.
>>540591249>why didn't sanctions work?Your country is too large and has too many resources which the small resource-less countries imposing the sanctions need. It only harmed them.
>>540591249Sure , because of hurmuz , the minerals are oil gas coal etc
Jews
>>540591249>Russia is to poor to buy their own dirt>this is a good thing comrades!
>>540591249if economics are made up jewish nonsense why do slaves under capitalism have to work 40+ hours a week?
>>540591484> Your country is too large and has too many resourcesIt’s like if the interstellar community put sanctions on planet earth. May they did, but we’re ok anyway.
>>540591249They did work. A trade surplus isn't a good thing it's an economic imbalance.
Russia doesn't declare all of its income to the world bank. Very antisemitic indeed.
>>540592357Selling things to other countries and making money from it sounds pretty decent imo.
>>540591249>main export is gas and oil>be neighbors with China, which has a bottomless need for both
>>540593501Almost like having a conflict with Russia, Iran and China simultaneously was not a good idea.
>>540592540ov vey stop being so antisemitic
>>540591249Hasn't the state debt gone up by 70% or something since 2021?
>>540592540trade surplus is good only if you have no government debt, have very little, or its very low interestif you have typical government debt it's bad because it means you aren't importing as much economy enhancing products like machinery as you could in an optimal situation which means you'll end up paying more in loan interest due to lower future tax revenue
>>540591249You have to take Russian government data with a grain of salt. Russia is engaged in an existential war against the Western Civilization, surely they wouldn't fudge the books, especially since, you know, the whole world is watching and paying attention.
>>540591249>2025+1>sanctionstop kek
>>540594301Russian debt to GDP is 18%, which is higher compared to when it was 12, but still hilariously low compared to Western countries.Especially considering they got to 100% when the USSR collapsed.
>>540591249If Russia is fine without sanctions, why do their government keep pestering Europe and US to lift them? Might as well keep them indefinitely.
>>540591249What a strange coincidence that you post this on the day a company conglomerate that provided russia with parts for engines for cruise missiles, avoiding sanctions, got eliminated.
>>540595160>The sanctioned goods were funneled into Russia via a network of companies across various countries (Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, Hong Kong, Belarus, Kyrgyzstan, South Korea, Poland, and Lithuania). European manufacturers were led to believe—through the use of forged end-user certificates—that the goods would remain in those respective countries. In reality, however, the goods ended up with companies linked to the Russian state-owned conglomerate ROSTEC.>Sanctioned, electronically controlled CNC machines used for manufacturing tools and specialized tooling, valued at approximately 140,000 euros, were also seized. In August 2025, four premises in Vienna were searched by order of the public prosecutor's office, resulting in the seizure of four data storage devices. Analysis revealed that industrial goods had been procured for Russian military end-users as early as 2019—that is, prior to the full-scale Russian attack on Ukraine.sanctions dont work and russia can produce everything themselves btw
>>540594751look at the interest rate on it retard.
>>540594751that's still far too high for surplus to be a good thingit's fine if you're at like 3-4% or its all <1%>but still hilariously low compared to Western countries.I'm not well versed on the specifics of russian economy but that low debt is usually not optimal although debt to gdp ratio is a whole nother issuesomething like ~40% debt is the mathematical ideal for developed countries since the benefits of expanding infrastructure early outpaces the cost of loansbut most countries shoot past that because politicians are big retards with no foresightnorway is a good example at 45% even though they could hit 0% debt without any real effortbut it doesn't make mathematical sense to do so in an economy with perpetual inflation so they hover around the 40% mark
>>540595527stop already this is getting sad
>>540595423Oh man, it's a fourth and about to be a third of their total income while they continue to borrow more.Wait, that's us.
>>540595527>expanding infrastructurePlease understanding, bombing Europe is more important to the russian soul than Water Infrastructure in the Provinces.
>>540591249Because cutting off Russia from Starbucks and Mastercard only works if you have a goysumer base that actually wants these things. I'm not sure how blocking Russia from accessing Netflix was supposed to topple your government, but I'm positive some fat woman with pronouns in her social media profiles is the one who suggested it.

>>540595160> a company conglomerate got eliminatedHow many nukes did it take to eliminate a “company conglomerate”?
>>540596205Many i fucking hate them so much, the amount of german flags posting globohomo shiz here that cant even speak german when prompted is infuriating because once they call anybody they diaagree with a russian bot etc. They cannot back down from their claim to be native.I hope the EU will soon enforce the ukrainian draft here too
>>540591249>rising trade surplus>still way down pre-warlol
>>540596434> EU will soon enforce the ukrainian draft here tooIt more and more sounds like they are going to be sent back. Unlike Niggers where draft dodgers gets asylum.
>>540591249Why do you care about magic numbers so much instead of being in a trench vanya? Motherland calls
>>540596390>Rusnigger tries to be smartcute. here, rusnigger, learn:>A company conglomerate (or a multi-industry company) is a large corporation made up of several smaller, completely different businesses. One main parent company owns these separate businesses, but each smaller part works in a different and unrelated industryRegarding your message:Do it faggot
>>540596664So how did this conglomerate got “eliminated” ?
>>540598002By arresting its CEO and banning the company you fucking ESL dipshit jesus christ.
the main drop in standard of living is experienced by civilians
>>540598789Not even in the news here. Sounds like cope.
>>540591249China and India still buy your oil
>>540591249you sanctioned an industry that was never addicted to foreign imports... so europe hits itself with it every single time harder! its a jewish theatre, i dont get how people in europe still believe anything in the jewish mainstream propaganda media... especially trying to provoke a war with a nuclear superpower with good relations to china should make anyone with a brain very confused, but no, nothing...
>>540591249>6% of GDP smaller than ItalyNo wonder Russia is being humiliated by subhuman hohols...
>>540603910GDP is fake and gay, faggot shill.NATO 155mm shell: $6000Russian 152mm shell $600So the USA gets 1000% more GDP for every shell they send to ukraine!Winning!
>>540596577Thank fuck. Nothing worse than watching a bunch of Ukrainian slavshits "protesting" like it's a block party with food and drinks while I'm stuck at work. All so I can enjoy watching my tax dollars being sent off to Jewlensky.Even funnier when our former finance minister under Trudeau betrays the country to run as a minister for Ukraine. Fuck them.
>>540591249define work because they do have an impact and reduce capability on the far end, just because i make a rifle too expensive for you and you rob the bank with a flare gun instead doesnt mean my efforts were wasted.
>>540591249Trade surplus literally means that the population can't afford to consume what they produce, it never ceases to amaze me how this is seen as something good.
>>540591249>The sanctions do nothing!>But also STOP THE FUCKING SANCTIONS OR WE'LL NOOOOK!!1!
>>540591249Sanctions worked against Eastern European countries, so they joined the EU out of fear of them, lest Europe destroy their economies, as it did with Ukraine. But it was a bluff from the start, and it didn't work against Russia. All Eastern European countries could have stayed away, too, and would now be independent of the European Commission's decisions and freely trading with the rest of the world. But now they're constantly losing out on lucrative deals because France sees them as a threat, and as a result, the countries are dying out.
>>540591249That soil Russia is lately gaining.Is it of any worth?
>>540591249>spending money on or buying from abroad things that go boom whatever helps you sleep, hivan
>>540591249Russoids are already eternal poorfags so if some sanctions reduce Babushka's moldy bread slices from 3 to 2 nobody will notice it or care.
>>540591484Fuckin AI slop lmfao

>>540606408NATO needs those butthurt belters to DIE in a war against Russia though. And they are - I'm pretty sure Russia chewed through tens of thousands of Poles, Georgians, Romanians, etc. Mercs worldwide are thin on the ground these days. Smart ones are "guarding" water towers from the comfort of up-armored Escalades, nowhere near Russia or Ukraine. Dumb ones are all dead.
>>540591249>import falls more than export>sanctions do not work!What?
>>540591249>imports drop by 10%Sounds like they did work. You are making less from your exports and can afford to import less in turn.>trade surplusRussia is like Canada. We are massive countries with relatively small populations so we export tons of raw materials that other countries refine and turn into finished goods for their fuckhuge markets that we don't have. There is always going to be a trade surplus in this situation. There aren't enough people and they make too little money to buy enough shit to offset all the exports.
>>540591249I just don't fucking get it. The entire world is sanctioning them, besides maybe a few small countries like China, India and the rest of Asia and South America. They are completely isolated and have no friends left.
>>540591249Russia was self sufficient during Soviet times save for aluminum, why would it not be now? At least until natural resources run out.
>>540610860Russia trades with everyone, even the west. Even though the west denies it.
Why do russians have mongoloid shaped heads?
Why doesn't Russia steal European sperm and use it to breed Russian super high iq super soldiers with 10 inch cocks?
>>540613199IQ of Russia will only drop from european genes
>>540612081In the USSR, the government itself blocked imports. The shortages in the USSR were due solely to poor logistics, which were largely ideologically neglected, with the belief that these luxurious stores were simply bourgeois surplus. And since many in the early USSR were ordinary peasants and workers, not living in surplus was a habit, and no one really thought about anything more.In other words, all the USSR's problems had nothing to do with sanctions and the lack of trade with the West. That was simply a myth.
>>540605480> Trade surplus literally means that the population can't afford to consume what they produceThis must be the most retarded take I’ve seen in ages.
Nice, this means the war will go for a extra decade and more.Millions and millions more whiteniggers slavs deaths, sublime.And now that serbia switched sides we can send all the balkan nations.Plz russia, do not cruble before the deal is done.
>>540591249>according to its federal customs serviceNigger seriously??? Zero effort.
