That is too bad. I think, most decent people at this point are cheering for the Ukrainian people. A democratic nation invaded by an oppressed dictatorship under false pretenses who then went on to butcher, rape and maim civilians in an unprovoked war.

Only wankers defend Psycho Puffy.

Or idiot Joe, or clown Zelensky.

You are a grovelling apologist desperate to justify your god's invasion of a peaceful nation. You are a cretin of epic proportions.

You sir are a groveling, simian apologist for the USA- the world's greatest war criminal! A childish flag waving monkey, providing excuses for the world's worst mass murderers.

That is the most idiotic thing I have read in ages. You are an epic level buffoon. Russia in a few short months has proven to be the worst of the worst. The war crimes in Ukraine have not been matched since WW2. The raising of cities to the ground is not something the US has ever done since WW2. The rape, murder and maiming of civilians in Ukraine is unprecedented in modern history over such a short span of time.

You have lost your mind, and it is sad to witness your decline as you continue to plumb new depths.

BTW thanks for the green dipshit.

Sabang appears to be losing it.

What a stupid boy.

Oh, and the economic sanctions are not working!

Is that the view of a real live Muscovite? No it’s a dumb Australian, waiting for the occupation of a sovereign nation to capitulate.

Remember the last time a mad bloke occupied France? The difference this time is that the people of Ukraine have some backbone. The western world still liberated France, because the madman went too far.

Putin placing his own people under ever more vexatious demands for his benefit, and not theirs. What could possibly go wrong?

Sanctions? This is just the beginning. Putin is not a good person. He is evil. The only support he has at home, is from officials who are afraid to lose their cushy lifestyle.

No, it's the view of the Economics Editor of the Guardian, among multiple other pundits (including myself). Perhaps the strength of the ruble tells you something, or the strong trade surplus and balance of payments Russia is enjoying, or maybe even that life in Moscow carries on much the same as pre-sanctions- it is just harder to shift money overseas these days. Oh but of course- you know nothing about money, do you? Just pique, and empty posturing.

Memes again.

If and how Russia wins the economic war

No winners in that war, at all. Just certain sectors, I suppose. But the early hoop-la about how sanctions would bring Russia crashing to it's knees were obviously, ummm, optimistic at best.

Who said that? Nobody did. The general consensus was that sanctions take time to work as they constrict trade. Even Biden said that when US announced their sanctions.

Stop erecting strawmen.

You have no fucking clue what you are talking about. Russia is on the brink of collapse and going broke fast. Life for the average person in Russia is total shit right now, and most who can have left the country. Many have gone to Georgia, where the rents in Tbilisi have multiplied exponentially with the influx of Russians who have income streams from outside of Russia.

But of course you would have no idea about any of that because you are a blinkered, propagandized utter imbecile.

Nope willy, wrong again. I must admit the early crash in the ruble added fuel to that fire- but how short lived did that prove to be. Now the Russian Central Bank is trying to bring the ruble down a bit!

^ so now you are Galbraith, Keynes and Adam Smith rolled into one. Give up idiot, you know absolutely nothing about money, trade or economics. try earning some first.

Raising interest rates will prop up the ruble but downside is slowing of econmic growth. Easing from 20% to 17% interest is still not much to spur growth so expect further easing will follow with of course decline in ruble again.

Says one of the biggest idiots on the forum. You can not dispute the facts in my post, so you resort to personal attacks. The truth is I know far more than you do and Russia is doomed in the long run and is running out of cash reserves to fund this war.

Not to mention the brain drain of successful young people who are fleeing the country. Good times in Tbilisi and the other handful of nations that the shit Russian passport has access too.

You are an idiot and a nobody. Go argue with the other idiots, and wave your pom poms for brave Zelensky there. Idiot.

You're too kind.
