“Oleg Deripaska, a Russian billionaire in the cross hairs of individual sanctions before, said that the country faces an economic catastrophe not unlike 1998. “Multiply that times three,” one of Russia’s leading industrialists said this weekend.”
- bank runs begun. - rouble collapsing. - desperate 20% interest rates to stave off hyperinflation. - intentional companies leaving en masse. - international trade, foreign exchange, bank transfers frozen - more than half of all Russia central bank foriegn reserves now frozen - Russian credit ratings downgraded to junk bond status - widespread defaults imminent.
Sad to say, but all this is going to hit the russian people hardest, since the corrupt oligarch will protect themselves and off shore accounts first. Pensioners are going to be starving in the streets. .
If they rise up and kill Putin we'll stop. Until then, tough luck.

Damn that looks like way too much food for that old lady and that bread looks high quality. That's the $12 loaf in America instead of the $3 wonder bread

Russia has natural resources and China makes shit, so perfect partners. They don't need the rest of the world.
Adam Butler
lol. fuck man. live through ww2/soviet gulags just to experience the next ww.
Leo Cooper
You focus on Russia without realizing the economy of every country is fucked.
David Phillips
Just imagine if the roles were reversed. All relevant countries are blocking all trade with the US, bank runs begun, the dollar collapsing, international companies leaving en masse, American credit ratings downgraded to junk bond status, assets frozen and hundreds of thousands of American citizens waiting in the breadline, and people just comment "If they rise up and kill Biden we'll stop.".
Lol. How is Russia going to pay for it? China isn’t going to take worthless roubles or extended credit, even if it could work out payment outside of swift. Plus, China’s economy is completely dependent on the west and USD. They’re not going to risk their economy for Russia. At all. Desperate cope to argue China is going to bail using out.
Oliver Johnson
Yeah, if they had the power to do so they'd have the power to make the same threats. They don't, so I don't particularly care.
Imagining a 'what if the shoe was on the other foot' scenario is for cucks.
Josiah Allen
Americans have their Second Amendment, we don't. Can you feel the difference?
Xavier Flores
Yes and this is mainly the fault of the United States which pushed Ukraine to become a NATO member by staging a coup in 2014 which provoked a regime change that led to a NATO-friendly government. Just google "maidan snipers" and "Ashton phonecall estonian foreign minister Paet".
Thomas Brooks
it's okay, it'll all be worth it because you secured half of a swamp in eastern europe
Charles Thomas
Can't Russia just become an autarchy? Worked for us. Good luck to all Rusbros.
America, and any democratic country would just vote out their incompetent insane leader that let it happen. Anyone familiar with Russian history know how this ends: with a bullet in the back of Putin’s skull, either through putsch, coup or revolution.

How bad is it actually in Russia right now? I can't tell where the propaganda begins/ends.
Easton Nelson
sounds based, let's sanction the US
Henry Sullivan
good, every dead russian is a good russian. you could rebel and kill putin but you stupid tundra pigs only drink and look retarded.
Andrew Wilson
Because Americans would just actually do it then. Most people really are just waiting for the second that putting a brick into the skull of their appointed(not elected) officials becomes socially acceptable.
Yep, this collapse is going to be biggest single economic meltdown modern world has witnessed. As Russia's neighbour country this seriously scares shit out of me. Our border was already biggest economic gap in the world. Far bigger than US vx Mexico. Now it's going to be US vs Zimbabwe. 1200 kilometers of border between civilization vs wasteland. I mean this seriously not trolling.
Nicholas Sanchez
i want to see the soap,,,,,poland aproved?
Oliver Sullivan
No one believe that dizinfo larp VPN shillfag. It it was true, Ukraine would have welcomed your tanks in with flowers. It must be humiliating to see millions of Hohols actually volunteering, fighting back and acting like a real country instead of slaves forced into conscription for a corrupt dictator’s whims. They’re literally willing to be destroyed, rather then become like you.
Anthony Walker
You are turning into africa on your own well enough no sanctions needed
Camden Murphy
146 million people are being held hostage because the American empire decided that it wants to break a promise and bring NATO to Russia's doorstep. No wonder so many people in the middle east hate you.
Lincoln Barnes
Based this is hilarious
Christian White
>Lol. How is Russia going to pay for it? oil/gas backed rubles.... if you want to buy oil, you have to buy rubles. so they wont be worthelss.
Jack Thomas
This is true. At least Putin can blame it all on sanctions. What will pedo Joe blame? Russia? We are all as good as fucked
Adam Flores
Russians can live on a few breadcrumbs and frozen stale water per week while sleeping in snowbanks in Siberia for decades on end. They can take it. America/ the West are pussies and will be enslaved by China.
Sebastian Wood
Yeah. Sad the Russians did not shut down Putin when they had the chance for just 20 years.
if america got cut off and the dollar died, the country has more than enough assets to survive
because while america suffers from inflation similarly to russia pre-war, american economy is more diversified and has more hedges in it's favor in terms of goods and domestic consumption to stave off a full blown recession
what does russia have? well they have natural gas and oil, two commodities that really only function when exported
so the only way that russian economy can stay afloat is to secure gas and oil deals. But how exactly is that going to keep the people fed? russia as a country in general imports more goods than it exports, whereas the USA is the opposite
>BUT IF IT WERE YOU this is what every woman says when she's losing an argument
Wyatt Howard
>If they rise up and kill Putin we'll stop. Until then, tough luck. Did Americans rise up when the U.S. illegally invaded Iraq or when we were shipping boatloads of weapons to sunni jihadists in Syria? Why do you hypocritical faggots set standards for other people that you yourself would never meet?
Logan Flores
user.. Russia is no longer. It's gone. What comes next is the actual topic. Nato absolutely does not have to worry about Russia but about the warlord who has dead Russia's nuke button.
Parker Collins
It's ok, they'll just eat all that gas and oil or something.
Ryder White
Like you tried and miserably failed on january 6th?
Connor Lee
>muhh boycott ameriga But it didn't happen and never wi. Cope like a helicopeter
"Lol, lmao" said the Ukrainian tankbuster
Ryder Bell
They've got India too. Those dots shouldn't be ignored because they're very resourceful. Scammers but resourceful
Daniel James
It's just been a week. We have to wait a couple of months when people start to run out of money and real shortages start at the stores.
Charles Stewart
they can eat the tigers
Jaxon Mitchell
You reap what you sow, Putin will rule over a bunch of corpses then
>Oleg Deripaska Thats real name? I heard it before and thoughted its joke
Jack Edwards
And this guy has all his money out of their economy right now invested in Bitcoin and crypto . He will bring his crypto back into the Russian economy in a year and make the Russians in Moscow into literal slaves
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_oligarch Here are the most prominent oligarchs of the Putin era:.. Roman Abramovich: JEWISH Alexander Abramov: JEWISH Oleg Deripaska: JEWISH Mikhail Prokhorov: JEWISH Alisher Usmanov: Muslim, married to Jew German Khan: JEWISH Viktor Vekselberg: JEWISH Leonid Mikhelson: JEWISH Vagit Alekperov: Muslim Mikhail Fridman: JEWISH Dmitry Rybolovlev: Slavic Vladimir Potanin: Slavic Pyotr Aven: JEWISH Vitaly Malkin: JEWISH Total count: 10 Jews, 2 Muslims (1 married to a Jew), 2 ethnic Slavs
Reminder that anyone with power in Russia is a Jew.
If there wasn't an actual Putin, the Russians would have to invent him. Russians can't handle not being enslaved to an asshole government sending them off to go get killed in some foreign adventure or another. Oh well.
Noah Wilson
If the US did the same thing to Canada how would Americans respond? Nobody would rise up and try and take out the president.
Caleb Price
>Sad to say, but all this is going to hit the russian people hard Good. If they want to do shit, nows the time.
