Russia has lost control of the ruble. They can't keep it down. They want to keep it at 60-70, but it's just getting stronger.
What are the consequences of this in regards to Russian external politics? What are the economical consequences? Surely it hurts Russian resource exporters, right?
They are already printing them and giving huge loans to all sectors of their industry to stop the growth, retard. Too bad it won't work.

The ruble is toxic. Nobody wants the ruble because it's a manipulated currency. Russia is trying to force customers to pay in rubles and they're all taking their business elsewhere
Owen Rodriguez
This chart shows the USD to RUB ratio. As it approaches 1, the Ruble is stronger, no weaker. Today $1US is worth 54P. If it was worth fewer (as the line dips, you fucking retard), the doable buys fewer Rubles.

They’ll stop selling gas since it’s becoming uneconomical for them
BTW, they need to keep it since oil and gas is a valuable resource and we are making them a favor by stopping imports
Jason Parker
So you print $10T rubles and sell them for other currencies while lowering interest rates. Russia literally could not ask to be in a better economic situation right now.
This is correct, but an expensive ruble is bad for exporters. If they used to get 70 rubles, but now they get 50 for goods in dollars

Feels like this is a meme thing made by lying economists. Historically the US dollar has been the strongest currency of all and they benefited the most from free trade and exports... Everyone in a country should want a strong currency. All arguments against it are midwit takes.

Your currency is worth shit, and that's a good thing

The Russians have been stockpiling gold for decades.
Canada has none ever since Justin sold it all off.
Gee, I wonder what could go wrong?
Brayden Ortiz
Is a high currency the same thing as a strong one?
Elijah Peterson
yet hohols, polaks and zog cry that it's russia that's losing
Josiah Morales
He's correct. We can't buy anything with it anyway and with a strong ruble they don't get as much taxes as they used to for the budget.
Christopher Morris
at this rate putin will be able to buy the united states with a single ruble
Josiah Parker
>giving loans >to stop growth ok retard
Isaiah Turner
They should switch central bankers with the US. Everybody wins.
Hunter Barnes
Oh for fuck sakes, Russia only exports resources. In 2011 when ruble was 28 per dollar, Russia exported 500 billion worth of thigs. in 2019 it exported around 300 billion.
Carson King
kek they’re praying for more sanctions now
Connor Campbell
Well... fiat currencies value go to zero historically, so if they stay high, it means it is doing well right? Incompetent governments tend to inflate their currency. So I guess the opposite is better because a fiat has never failed because it was too valuable.
Carson Peterson
Too much gays and trans-shit, sorry.
Noah Hernandez
The currency rate should also be floating and volatile. This is what the mental slaves of the IMF in the third world say. All developed countries with strong economies have strong and stable currencies that are not subject to volatility.
Colton Foster
But the cost of everything is less because the roubles they get cost more?
Andrew Gutierrez
It feels like weak currencies of the third world benefit big economies with strong currencies, not the other way around. It is a cope they give us for gov mismanagement and calling it central currency planning.
Brayden Price
lol imagine making this comment.. I mean lookit this guys flag, LMAO learn the basics of how the dollar works you fucking retard-idiot
Zachary Jones
Yep.
Easton Scott
Most of our products are domestic made, it does not negate inflation.
Andrew Perez
The third world is competing with itself to get scraps from the slave masters. They call the complete subjugation of our countries good, because it is good for them not for us. You know we are selling everything to foreign powers, and we get? employment. Yes employment good. lmao
