The west isn’t worried. Lil’ puffy faced Putin likes to run his mouth. It’s not a compelling threat. Head back to RT and find another talking point. |
Ksenia and Elvira are both first-class brains. Widely respected in the international banker community. |
I think you meant well respected in the dimon-gangster community? Didn’t a lawmaker suggest central bankers like her should pack firearms in meetings? I’m sure Ksenia’s first act will be to drain every penny from the IMF. Oh wait, that meeting in Moscow is in the first week of October! He certainly doesn’t waste any time. |
Reposting the same weird comment everywhere is getting old. Please stop. This isn't how the IMF works. Also, Ksenia Yudaeva is a woman with a woman's name, moron. Russians put gender in their name TWICE. |
Nabiullina's a legend! Nabiullina’s rise was an unlikely one — she is the daughter of blue-collar ethnic Tatars from Ufa, a city in Russia’s Republic of Bashkortostan, more than 1,000 kilometers from Moscow. But from humble beginnings, she became the first woman to run a central bank of a G8 country. She famously saved the Russian economy back in 2014, after Putin annexed Ukraine’s Crimea, deftly hiking interest rates and introducing reforms. With the ruble tanking and inflation soaring, Nabiullina’s interventions, which also saw Russia develop its own payments system, shut down hundreds of wobbly banks and eventually build up huge reserves, earned her the admiration of her international counterparts. She was honored as the central bank governor of the year by Euromoney in 2015 and The Banker in 2017. And in 2018, Christine Lagarde, then the head of the International Monetary Fund, lauded Nabiullina as the woman who could make “central banking sing” (after waxing lyrical about their shared love of opera). https://www.politico.eu/list/politico-28-class-of-2024/elvira-nabiullina/ |

Excellent! Then there is no need at all for an IMF mission to Russia! And I won’t need to explain what this means to you
“ Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday ordered the country’s military to increase its number of troops by 180,000 to a total of 1.5 million” https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/putin-orders-military-boost-troop-numbers-180000-15-113723724 “ "The shortage of (labour) resources may lead to a situation where economic growth slows down, despite all the efforts to stimulate demand, with all that stimulus accelerating inflation," Central Bank Governor Elvira Nabiullina said over the summer. "In essence, this is a stagflation scenario, which can only be stopped at the cost of a deep recession," https://www.france24.com/en/live-news/20240912-russia-faces-stagflation-threat-as-growth-slows I wonder what causes a shortage of labor resources? The Russian Government seems hell bent on destroying it’s own country? |
https://www.imf.org/en/About/Factsheets/IMF-Lending You think any MOUs signed by the Kremlin will be honored? Moron.
‘Those who could get the arms include the bank's deputy chairs and their advisers, branch managers, as well as department directors who can be provided with a service pistol or a submachine gun. Russian media reported that there are three first deputy chairs and nine deputy chairs at the institution. “ https://www.newsweek.com/russia-central-bank-machine-guns-putin-1927013 I wonder if they’ll be armed by the time the IMF visits? Nah, they’re not gangsters at all.. |

Ukraine blows up massive Russian ammunition dump.
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dEz1ZLVgp8> A Ukrainian drone attack launched overnight destroyed an ammunition depot in the western Russian region of Tver, causing a massive blast. The Ukrainian drones targeted the Russian defense ministry-operated warehouse in the city of Toropets, which was storing Iskander tactical missile systems, Tochka-U tactical missile systems, guided aerial bombs and artillery ammunition. |
Eat some borscht, buddy. They ain’t paying you enough to write hungry. |
It’s almost like Russia could fk the fk off out of Ukraine, right? Crazy. |
+1. Imagine living in a country where your kids had hope rather than political fear. I mean, I don't live in one of those either. But just imagine it! |

Because they know that Ukraine and this situation is just a blip on their radar in the grand scheme of things. They want to keep and eye on a large and potentially profitable (though highly volatile) market that Russia is. |
