I think the whole idea is that neither economy does cope. Ukraine is 100% reliant on western aid, and Russia is 100% reliant on fuel sales while reducing imports for obvious reasons.
The main question then is, what stops sooner, Russian exports or Western money - I would not bet on the continuation of the latter, many elections are incoming, and the populace is not happy.

Wasn't expecting the Jinjer shout-out that's awesome! "Home Back" is a great song, and it's quite interesting to hear their perspective. Tati is literally, an extremely powerful voice for her people.
Jinjer's reference reminds me of a phrase by Georges Clemenceau, the French Victory Father when he quotes: "A human is only truly free when he owns a home".
Once again, thank you for this informative content! I follow the news on the war rather closely, and this makes the situation more digestible than the day-to-day grind.
Considering Russia's recent refocus to compensating its soldiers to increase recruitment, I'm curious to see just how far each country can push their warchests.
Ukraine has an unlimited warchest cause the US can just "print" a 100 or 200 billion and it wont affect the dollar at all. Russia is in a bind since it has to sell its resources for a much cheaper price but it can still earn money to buy foreign stuff and is self sufficient when it comes to energy and food. So the war can go for a long time.

Please stop pushing Masterworks - a really shady business. There's a reason you don't hear your broker pushing investments in stocks down an individual investor's throat - it's illegal to do so (see Wolf of Wall Street as well ... decent movie). That doesn't apply, sadly, to paintings.
Man I hope the Internet lasts long enough to grow this period in hindsight. We have an unprecedented opportunity to see a wide variety of opinions with so many.... openly expressed ideas
Thank you for another educational episode. I don't know much about how economic policy shifts during warfare in general, but I would enjoy additional episodes on the topic. As a final note, as always, may this war end soon. God be with you out there everybody. ✝️
"Head of the central bank of Russia plans to keep interest rates low to control inflation." As someone with a limited knowledge of economics....isn't that going to have the opposite effect? By increasing the money supply you increase inflation. Was that something she had said or where did that idea come from?

Both war economies can probably last longer then the war itself, so political and military developments will decide. Some experts state the realistic chance of the war taking another few years, into 2026 as theoretical maximum efforts will be reached when improving the war engine.
On the increase in Ukrainian debt, this was also experienced by the British during WW2. Its unavoidable because the damaged Ukrainian economy cant pay for the weapons and public services slone.
Nice video, congratulations as always to the "@Kings and Generals", but a minor criticism: since when do the sociologists' opinion count on as economic expertise?!
I don't think this video really covered either countries' transition to war economy. A pie chart on public spending comparing current and pre war in percentages and absolute terms would be a good place to start, it can lead into what services are being cut and where most of the dollars go. A similar chart on public finances should inform on changes to tax base and new sources of finance. It is unfortunate I am no better informed after watching the video.
I'm again getting distracted by wrongly located cities on the map. It's better than the revolution video, but still some mistakes (Luhanks, Bachmut) manage to creep through.
Oppression and repression are two words we often use interchangeably, assuming them to have similar meanings. However, there is a distinct difference between oppression and repression. Oppression is usually done by one group of people to another group, whereas repression can be something one does to one’s own desires and impulses. In other words, you're using the wrong word there.
repression noun re·pres·sion ri-ˈpre-shən Synonyms of repression 1 a : the action or process of repressing : the state of being repressed repression of unpopular opinions b : an instance of repressing racial repressions 2 a : a mental process by which distressing thoughts, memories, or impulses that may give rise to anxiety are excluded from consciousness and left to operate in the unconscious b : an item so excluded

Keep seeing videos proclaiming that this and so countries economy is collapsing or crashing. Economies can go for a long time before they completely halt and often there are revolts before this actually happens. Predicting the breaking points will be challenging.
Ukraine has actually increased their tax income and also the number of millionaires has increased by a significant margin during the war. It's not really an indicator of economic growth but more of a "wave of patriotism" as people have actually started filing their taxes properly. Pre-war economic figures for Ukraine were always affected by a rather sizeable "shadow economy" that had persisted in the country due to corruption. This is actually good news.
And not to forget: enormous pilfering of western aid. Don’t forget Ukraine is still a corrupt country. Numerous reports of equipment “disappearing” on its way to the front. - it doesn’t mean they deserve an invasion though, nor that the aid should stop. Just that the aid is not as efficient as it could be.
Really....ya think the shadow economy gave itself up in this time of war and chaos, and ouy of patriotism started filing taxes? Lol.... if there are more billio airs, therr are also more destitute. War is a racket, and some are getting rich off it. Im sure the shadow economy is bigger than ever
Dude half of the country has left, Ukrainian rich has booked Turkish hotels everywhere and I'm talking about one country. And you're giving us hope that taxpayers has increased, I've a news for you "there are no taxes without economy"
"the number of millionaires had increased during the war" How? why? the increase in tax, I could understand. but how did the amount of millionaire increases if half of the country is wrecked by war and the citizens are fleeing out of the country en masse (which means the rich and middle-class ones who can afford it would do it first) ?. it doesnt make sense.
"The West needs Russia's energy. They won't support Ukraine for long." - Russian claims 1 year ago. "Ukraine can't last throughout the winter when we bomb their power plants." Russian claims 8 months ago. "The West will lose interest after elections in 2024." Russian claims today.
@@krzysztofbmx2892yes it is. You don’t see too many Iskanders or Kalibers strikes anymore, Kinzals seem to have vanished by June from the Ukrainian theater of war, and now we have confirmed contacts with Russian *T-55s* being used as *VBIEDS* on the frontline these days.
@@krzysztofbmx2892 Actually they are if you've been paying attention to what Russian soldiers are saying on the front lines. Ukraine is firing more shells than Russia. Quite a big change since the beginning of the war.
There are few incorrect things in the video Firstly - Akhmetov's media empire wasn't nationalised. He closed it because Ukraine channel joining national TV marathon made it lose a lot of money because there were no advertisements Second - Kagarlitsky is not a dissident. He was cooperating with FSB for a long time and now this finally backfired. Hope he rots in prison
Neoliberalism will hit both ways. The IMF will continue their "restructuring" which will see Ukraine have to privatize more of their economy to the benefit of wealthy western investors. The future is grim for both nation's and their people.
I like how one-sided the sources are. More than the half of experts on russian side are ukranians and Kiev School of Economics. Sounds a little bit unfair
Russian side is all like: Nah there ain't no problems on our side, even without the west, it's da best economy and will continue to be da best for a thousand years.
To rape sovereign nations people in an invasion and then worry about biased media optics is to fuck the dog and then be angry about what the neighbors might think; they are not the problem here guy.
Hats off to Kings and Generals for remaining a reliable source of information and insight unlike multiple other Western-based channels after the war on Ukraine, and I must say that complimenting Mevedev for his dancing prowess while disregarding Zelensky's Piano skills, even if unfair, spiced up the video in the end.
Maybe next time they should include input from sources other than Ukrainian...considering how in Ukraine they are not allowed to speak against their government or express any pro-russian views. It would also be helpful if you didn't vilify Russia...that way you can debate other side of the story instead of immediately dismissing it as propaganda.
I wish you'd avoiding terms like "shock doctrine neoliberalism", even though you might be in the ball park as to what is implied to some degree, this is a needlessly political viewpoint which hardly is subscribed to from the general audience. To articulate something more factual and neutrally charged shouldn't be too difficult. The fact that someone propagates this term does not mean its legitimate.
Perun said something pretty fitting in his video about war economies. "War economies work until they don't." Best example is Germany. Nazi Germany managed a war economy for years without any new foreign reserves coming in. At the start, every time the Germans conquered another country, they went into that country's central bank and took all the foreign reserves. That stopped after 1941
Recommendaing speculative assets in the arts is higly irresponsible. Its an extremely volatile and high risk environement and should not be partnered with. I am quite surprised that your team accepted them as a sponser.
@@robyoung703 He is making a point about the severe damages to a country's economy that results from being a colony of Russia, and that it takes decades to get it up and running again, when Russia keeps trying to keep it in its own dysfunctional economic sphere. He is using Ukraine as an illustrative comparison to, for instance, the Baltic countries, who luckily escaped Russian interference and threats of violence and is now much better off than Ukraine and Russia both. He is likewise expressing joy at the much better economic and security prospects of Ukraine as future members of the EU and NATO once the Russian occupying forces has been booted.
What is up with the editing in this video. The quality is all over the place. Why are statements shown and being read. This is not your usual level, very sad.
Under no circumstances Ukraine comes out in the positive from this conflict. Russia has oil, and with already heavy sactions on major producers Iran and Venezuela, the West can not afford to ban Russian oil sales. So Russia will always have the advantage. The sooner Ukraine and Russia sit on the negotiation table, the better it's for the world. West can not prop up ukraine for ever.
How long can Russia afford this expensive war? West has no problem sourcing gas & oil from other countries. But you're right, it will be a war of economic attrition.
@@darkgalaxy5548 Full sanctions on Russian oil causes a run on the middle eastern oil & gas. And with Saudis not exactly in a friendly terms with US & already heavy sanctions on Iran & Venezuela, that results in high oil prices. The West is already struggling with inflation, a massive increase in oil & gas prices causes massive internal turmoil. Russia benefits from high oil prices , India, China & the 3rd world countries do not have any obligation of joining in the sanctions against Russian oil. It's a double edged sword. And it's gonna cut Ukraine any which way it goes. Russia atleast has some positives to look forward to.

Maybe next time they should include input from sources other than Ukrainian...considering how in Ukraine they are not allowed to speak against their government or express any pro-russian views.
It would also be helpful if you didn't vilify Russia...that way you can debate other side of the story instead of immediately dismissing it as propaganda.
So sick of ads
Keep interest rates low to combat inflation?
Its going to devolve into Gold and Grain shipments. Old school.
I wish you'd avoiding terms like "shock doctrine neoliberalism", even though you might be in the ball park as to what is implied to some degree, this is a needlessly political viewpoint which hardly is subscribed to from the general audience. To articulate something more factual and neutrally charged shouldn't be too difficult. The fact that someone propagates this term does not mean its legitimate.
A great video. Is there any chance you could join Nebula?
They should invite us, it is invitation only
Ukraine has help, Russia isn't coping
Maratha empire Shivaji history please make video
Perun said something pretty fitting in his video about war economies. "War economies work until they don't."
Best example is Germany. Nazi Germany managed a war economy for years without any new foreign reserves coming in. At the start, every time the Germans conquered another country, they went into that country's central bank and took all the foreign reserves. That stopped after 1941
Recommendaing speculative assets in the arts is higly irresponsible. Its an extremely volatile and high risk environement and should not be partnered with. I am quite surprised that your team accepted them as a sponser.
Before the war Ukraine was POOR, extremely poor
You gonna finish that thought or are you just sharing?
@@robyoung703 He is making a point about the severe damages to a country's economy that results from being a colony of Russia, and that it takes decades to get it up and running again, when Russia keeps trying to keep it in its own dysfunctional economic sphere. He is using Ukraine as an illustrative comparison to, for instance, the Baltic countries, who luckily escaped Russian interference and threats of violence and is now much better off than Ukraine and Russia both. He is likewise expressing joy at the much better economic and security prospects of Ukraine as future members of the EU and NATO once the Russian occupying forces has been booted.
Interesting.
What is up with the editing in this video. The quality is all over the place. Why are statements shown and being read. This is not your usual level, very sad.
If Ukraine wins, how are they going to pay off all that debt?
They may have to default.
Ukraine will get Marshall Plan money.
Under no circumstances Ukraine comes out in the positive from this conflict. Russia has oil, and with already heavy sactions on major producers Iran and Venezuela, the West can not afford to ban Russian oil sales. So Russia will always have the advantage. The sooner Ukraine and Russia sit on the negotiation table, the better it's for the world. West can not prop up ukraine for ever.
How long can Russia afford this expensive war? West has no problem sourcing gas & oil from other countries. But you're right, it will be a war of economic attrition.
@@darkgalaxy5548 Full sanctions on Russian oil causes a run on the middle eastern oil & gas. And with Saudis not exactly in a friendly terms with US & already heavy sanctions on Iran & Venezuela, that results in high oil prices. The West is already struggling with inflation, a massive increase in oil & gas prices causes massive internal turmoil. Russia benefits from high oil prices , India, China & the 3rd world countries do not have any obligation of joining in the sanctions against Russian oil. It's a double edged sword. And it's gonna cut Ukraine any which way it goes. Russia atleast has some positives to look forward to.
RUSSIA going or do well in every position but western propaganda do well BRAVO
Wars Swallow Gold Like A Pit In The Earth
The sinews of war are infinite money
Human short supply. Guns without men is war waste
