Russia now officially the poorest country in Europe.

[JLW]

As Vladimir Putin's attacks on Ukraine have surpassed the two-week mark, his country has reached a milestone, too – for the first time, every single nation on the European continent is doing better than Russia. The Kremlin, describing its troubles as a "shock", attributed them to an "economic war" waged at Moscow.

Once the world's 11th-largest economy, Russia is now experiencing "absolutely unprecedented" economical struggles.

According to Visegrád 24, "Putin has wiped out 20 years of economic growth in terms of GDP" in two weeks.

Amazing. This tyrant that so many on this board admire has in two weeks obliterated his own economy. The Ruble is less worth than a penny and Russia is officially on its way back to shit hole status.

Hey Ivans how’s this clusterf*ck of a war working out for you!

Sorry, Ivan, Russia is headed back to the third world.

The deal with China just cements Russia‘s role as nothing more than a gas station for China.

Hye, Ivan’s, how’s this clusterf*ck of a war working out for you!

Ukraine is not doing better than Russia. This hard ball sanctions approach is likely to backfire. When countries around the world can't eat because of Western sanctions, things will change rapidly. Not to mention farmers being unable to get fertilizer, chip companies unable to get neon, and a slew of other things that have been ignored.

The people who won’t be able to eat will be the Russia people themselves. Putin has bankrupted them.

Gee, I bet Joe and Nancy sign off on a 2 trillion dollar package of aid now to the Russian people!

Gas prices will come down. The Russian people will be stuck in poverty for at least a generation because of Putin’s war.

They grow food, they won't starve.

The Russian people starved under Stalin. The Country’s size has never protected them from starvation. The Russian people are among the poorest and most abused in Europe. The Russian oligarchs will sell their agricultural products overseas before they sell it at home. They will need the foreign currency.

 

[toobfreak]

Gas prices will come down.

When?

The Russian people will be stuck in poverty for at least a generation because of Putin’s war.

Actually, it was Biddum's totally unnecessary cyber-economic war with a nuclear superpower that put the average Russian in poverty now.

You better hope Putin doesn't bring his retaliation directly to bear on US now.

The Russian people may be poor now but Pootie still has his military might and nuclear arsenal.

That includes space satellites, intercontinental missiles, nuclear subs, EMP, chemical, cyber, and biological weapons.

It was Putin that started the war. Biden and the western alliance warned Putin of the consequences of an invasion.

Poor Putin is like the school bully who picks on the wrong kid, gets socked in the nose, then starts crying like a little bitch.

Hey Ivans how’s this clusterf*ck of a war working out for you!

But Putin doesn't care, he and his henchmen will enjoy steak and the finest wines, and the war will continue. Putin now knows that NATO will do nothing, all he has to do is shout boo and they shake and cower because they will not stand up to him.

Its easy to cheer Ukraine and then send food. But Putin knows he can continue killing and killing and killing until there are no Ukrainians left and Western leaders will do nothing but run their mouths and feign indignation. Biden is a feckless fuck and Russia and China know this. Once he has Ukraine, he will look like a hero to his people, and our stupid leaders will open up his economy again because "the war is over." Then he will start making excuses for his next conquest.

What is happening today is exactly what was happening just before ww2. Biden is using Chamberlins playbook.

I think a lot of the younger Russians hate Putin and I bet most Russians don't want this war. Just ignore all the Russian trolls on this forum who are being paid in worthless rubles to post propaganda. Sadly, it works on Trumpsters. Most of these Trumpsters are Russian apologists and believe the propaganda.

Believe what you want. All evidence points to Putin caring enough about the Russian people to ensure they don't starve. The sanctions will backfire long before that happens.

 

[odanny]

I've never seen an international response to naked military aggression and rampant war crimes by independent corporations like this, it truly is unprecedented. This is the economic powerhouses of the world saying "Fuck Putin" and closing their business dealings with this bloodthirsty killer.

It truly is beautiful, and gives people hope.

The Chamberlains are those on the right who are Putin apologists. Biden and NATO are doing what they can to arm the Ukraine freedom fighters while also not risking WWIII with an unhinged and desperate Putin.

How the sanctions gonna backfire, genius?

Are you:

1) Stupid
2) Russian
3) Both

He'll never be a "hero" to his people. His war crimes cannot be hidden forever, as much as he is trying to do it in Russia now.

Putin cares so much for his people that he has stolen over $200 billion dollars from them.
