@ and more than 20% inflation in Russia with interest rates so high they destroy business investment and profit. Exchange rate alone means anything bought abroad costs far more. Your comparison is laughable and as deluded as the war criminal himself.
@@maxblanck123 You’re missing some basic economics here. Paying someone to dig a hole and fill it back up boosts GDP but adds no real value or benefit to society. The same applies to weapons-produced only to be destroyed-which make up a big chunk of GDP. In Russia’s case, without military production, their GDP would actually shrink by 4-5%. Food for thought
@@maxblanck123 The Russian government heavily invests into its war economy which is reflected in economical growth and boosts the numbers. Though missiles, shells and tanks don't help to increase the quality of life for ordinary Russians. It is money, resources and labor going to waste that could have been invested into infrastructure, education and health care.
For understanding price is rising. For example, bread cost 80 cents, and now it costs 1 dollar. But the price of the most important products remains the same and for understanding, who says that a normal standard of living is only in Moscow or St. Petersburg. This is not true. In the regions, the wage level is lower, but the products are cheaper and the living space is also cheaper. Most Russians have their own apartments. The state supports families. The rise in prices has hit more vulnerable groups of the population such as pensioners. You don't need to ask the young about the rise in prices, they work. Salaries have also increased by 20-30% over the past 2 years and more than cover the rise in prices.

For the millionth time - raising interest rates only curbs inflation that is "demand-driven." This is when people are borrowing and over spending because interest rates are too low. That is not what is happening in Russia (or anywhere else on Earth right now).
You've not factored in all the maths, £35 is the equivalent to a russian pensioners entire week income, so the inflation that's hitting them would be like the British Christmas tree being about £500 to you, so a pretty shocking price.
Instead of worrying about your own inflation in the EU which is worse than Russia, you are talking about Russia. I guess it is more satisfying to talk about others to make you feel like you are not alone in your failure.
The high inflation that the Russian economy is dealing with includes the cost of war, higher wages for the conscripts going to war, the high salaries of millions working in military factories, and sanctions. However, once the war comes to a halt, as eventually all wars do, there will be millions who will be out of high paying jobs, including providing tax revenues back to the state. Thus, inflation, subsequent unemployment, and lowering oil prices will be issues that will continue to drive down the Russian economy and provide a slow, if not a stagnant, recovery. So, even if Russia wins the war, which is doubtful, it still loses a decade of growth. JUST SAYING...
Russia is at war for 3 years but surviving well...inflation is at a high now ... But inflation is very high in UK and France also .... Can you please analyze why ??
UK inflation is 2.6 per cent. Russia claims its inflation rate is 9 per cent but few economists believe this figure. Bank of England base rate is 4.75 per cent, following two reductions in recent months, Russian central bank rate 21 per cent and would probably be higher without the Kremlin's interference. Get your facts straight before you comment.
and everything could have ended without starting in Istanbul 2022. but the greed and stupidity of the Ukrainian leadership, the incitement of the West gave Kyiv instructions for war.
4000 south korean won vs 2.7 us dollar, so what??? The Huge difference is what can you get with 2000 ruble vs what can you get with 18 euro, with 18 euro not so much...

Yes, but obviously not nearly as bad as Russia. All the world’s best economists agree that Russia is in huge trouble, of which it has no way out. It can only get worse. That’s what you get when you start an illegal war against your peaceful neighbour. Russia will soon collapse as a country and will disintegrate into many little states.

Is this chap working for Russia?.. He certainly isn't an independent journalist or an economist. Russian people are struggling. If you are a pensioner you are on about $140 a month. An average salary is $500 a month. Try paying your rent and buying food on this. Why is butter locked in cases with security tags?. Everything is ok is it?..😂.. I would be a better journalist than this fool. 😂
I also felt that the chap is taking the bright sight for Russia. The facts he mentions (like increased effective salary in some industries) is correct (at least, I heard it from other sources as well). But pensions are indeed 15-20k ruble (still enough to buy 10 Xmas trees) and average income in parts of Russia is below $500. Average is not a good measurement, because of the high inequality of income: Moscow and St Petersburg have high incomes, some people have very high income. That increases the average salary, while the average Russian has the (much lower) median salary.
so there was this period in my life when i kept attracting the wrong people, wrong opportunities, everything just felt…off. i couldn’t figure out why it kept happening. then one day, a friend mentioned a book called Vibrations of Manifestation by Alex Lane, saying it helped them see the patterns they didn’t even realize they had. i decided to give it a read, and wow, it opened my eyes to how much my own energy was shaping my life. seriously, this book is something else.

It seems most Russians still believe that Putin is a great gift to Russia😁
Of , course !!! We love our president. Do you like Olaf or Berbock ??? 🤣🤣🤣
@@JosephHoggang-bk4bk If you saw the state of Russia during the 90s you would believe that
It is you who believe that Zelensky was sent to you by God and therefore everyone is bufitsurated by the shopping center😂😂😂
Yes we do. Unlike Americans, Germans, British and French who hate their leaders.
Russian will be waiting in line for bread again. Thanks Putin for being a great leader
Remind us when were Russians waiting in line for bread. Was it in the 90's when Russian President was the western puppet? The one presented that danced drunk in front of Clinton and Bush - but west liked Yeltzin and called him democratic leader?
For the millionth time - raising interest rates only curbs inflation that is "demand-driven." This is when people are borrowing and over spending because interest rates are too low. That is not what is happening in Russia (or anywhere else on Earth right now).
The war cost Germany than Russia😂😂😂
Christmas trees costed £35 here in England. That was no inflation?? Okay
You've not factored in all the maths, £35 is the equivalent to a russian pensioners entire week income, so the inflation that's hitting them would be like the British Christmas tree being about £500 to you, so a pretty shocking price.
Instead of worrying about your own inflation in the EU which is worse than Russia, you are talking about Russia. I guess it is more satisfying to talk about others to make you feel like you are not alone in your failure.
Russian inflation: 9.5%
EU inflation: 2.4%

No western country has anywhere close to the inflation of Russia
You OK?
What an incredibly ignorant comment 😂😂
@@nigelgarrett7970 What is Debt of EU countries America canada vs Russia???? Tell me
The high inflation that the Russian economy is dealing with includes the cost of war, higher wages for the conscripts going to war, the high salaries of millions working in military factories, and sanctions. However, once the war comes to a halt, as eventually all wars do, there will be millions who will be out of high paying jobs, including providing tax revenues back to the state. Thus, inflation, subsequent unemployment, and lowering oil prices will be issues that will continue to drive down the Russian economy and provide a slow, if not a stagnant, recovery. So, even if Russia wins the war, which is doubtful, it still loses a decade of growth. JUST SAYING...

Russia is at war for 3 years but surviving well...inflation is at a high now ...
But inflation is very high in UK and France also ....
Can you please analyze why ??
UK inflation is 2.6 per cent. Russia claims its inflation rate is 9 per cent but few economists believe this figure. Bank of England base rate is 4.75 per cent, following two reductions in recent months, Russian central bank rate 21 per cent and would probably be higher without the Kremlin's interference. Get your facts straight before you comment.
How many Russian families are mourning for their dead close ones at 2024 Christmas? 10,000 more...?
and everything could have ended without starting in Istanbul 2022. but the greed and stupidity of the Ukrainian leadership, the incitement of the West gave Kyiv instructions for war.
Merry Christmas everyone!
Be blessed!
Looks like Christmas was slightly safer in a country at war than in Germany.
maybe because they have no money to buy fireworks
@Ganna_Ka

The worldwide inflation is partially caused by this war. It started with the Covid pandemic, that impacted the economy.

i remember this one night i was scrolling aimlessly, feeling like i had hit rock bottom. it felt like nothing i wanted was ever going to happen for me. i don’t know why, but i clicked on this link about the book Vibrations of Manifestation by Alex Lane, and something about it drew me in. the more i read, the more i felt like it was written just for me. it’s wild how much a single book can change your perspective.
Instead in Germany prices have gone down😂
You mean employment?
There is a solution....stop the war, elect (yes elect) a leader that actually wants the Russian people to thrive in the world trade economy.
Solution is no nato on Russia border no war .America military industrial complex want wars to continue so more profit can be made
And the West , of course , will lift its sanctions . 😂
We all understand perfectly well that no matter what we do , sanctions will last forever and NATO and the West will threaten our security .
Price is high in other countries too
Yes, but obviously not nearly as bad as Russia. All the world’s best economists agree that Russia is in huge trouble, of which it has no way out. It can only get worse. That’s what you get when you start an illegal war against your peaceful neighbour. Russia will soon collapse as a country and will disintegrate into many little states. Millions of trapped people will finally be free.

It's hard to know howthings really are going in tyrannies. Today a regime might seem as strong as ever and the next day it might fall. My feeling is that Putin is going strong. But remembering the Prigozhin incident some time ago, when all of a sudden Putin was completely panicked on TV... - things in Russia may not be as stable and set in stone as they seem

Is this chap working for Russia?.. He certainly isn't an independent journalist or an economist. Russian people are struggling. If you are a pensioner you are on about $140 a month. An average salary is $500 a month. Try paying your rent and buying food on this. Why is butter locked in cases with security tags?. Everything is ok is it?..😂.. I would be a better journalist than this fool. 😂
I also felt that the chap is taking the bright sight for Russia. The facts he mentions (like increased effective salary in some industries) is correct (at least, I heard it from other sources as well). But pensions are indeed 15-20k ruble (still enough to buy 10 Xmas trees) and average income in parts of Russia is below $500. Average is not a good measurement, because of the high inequality of income: Moscow and St Petersburg have high incomes, some people have very high income. That increases the average salary, while the average Russian has the (much lower) median salary.
