Extensive anti-Russian sanctions did not at all lead to the isolation of Russia, but isolated those who imposed these sanctions, says German economist Andreas Beck. In his article for N-TV, he writes that a very significant number of countries in the world have not joined the sanctions and benefit from trade with Russia. He stressed that those calling for sanctions were displaying breath-taking irresponsibility.
Despite the difficulties, the Russian economy can still exit with a brilliant trade and balance of payments. According to Bloomberg, experts expect Russia to earn almost $321 billion from energy exports in 2022, more than a third more than it did in 2021.
Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić, known for his recent strong stance in support of Russia in the war in Ukraine, has won a second presidential term after Sunday’s elections with his Progressive Party (SNS) also coming out on top in the early parliamentary election.
The people of the military victors of World War II, especially those in Russia, are firmly convinced that ‘Nazis epitomise evil incarnate’. This media promoted belief is now deeply ingrained. It is a tattoo on the consciousness and difficult to remove.
Prices for many essential commodities, food, fuel, plastics, and metals in the Western world, have soared beyond what many consumers can afford. As a result, cash-strapped consumers are forced to cut their spending. If this trend accelerates, it could lead to the fact that Western economies that have already suffered from the pandemic again plunge into the abyss of recession.
How does the Russian economy feel under the burden of new unprecedented sanctions? Much better than one might think, notes The Economist. Although the West has effectively unleashed an ‘economic war’ using the Russian special operation in Ukraine as an excuse to curb Russia as a trading power, by banning the supply of a wide range of goods and forcing large companies to leave the Russian market, as well as freezing up to 60% of the foreign reserves of the Russian Central Bank together, it seems that this strategy no longer leads to the desired results.
‘When will the Russian ruble be tied to gold? It’s a matter of time (perhaps it has already happened). The Central Bank of Russia already announced a few days ago that it was buying up gold at a fixed price. The tax on the purchase of gold by individuals has been abolished. You don’t have to be a top-level financial analyst to understand where all this is leading up to.
Those whom the gods wish to destroy they first make mad. Enoch Powell, Rivers of Blood speech. April 20, 1968. Against the backdrop of the Ukrainian conflict, Western Russophobia has risen to the level of insanity, Chinese analyst Zhang Tengjun claims in the Global Times on the public display of the letter ‘Z’. The symbol has become a symbol of Russian support.
One of the most surprising discoveries for me was to learn that Franz Lehár, whose operas and waltzes match those of the Strauss family, lived in my own lifetime. Much as I love the melodies and waltzes from The Merry Widow and Wiener Frauen (Viennese Women) I was ignorant of the fact that he was a contemporary of The Beatles and Elvis Presley.
