[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yep it’s trumps fault Russia defeated Ukraine’s military. [/quote] Mmmm. Russia is still on track to lose soldiers at a rate of a Combined Arms Army a month. "Russian forces have lost over 1,000 soldiers killed and wounded, as well as 13 tanks, 36 armoured combat vehicles and 44 artillery systems over the past 24 hours." https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2024/07/16/7465874/ Rising inflation rate. "The annual Russian inflation rate for June was 8.59%, up from 8.30% the previous month." "Prices for key food items in Russia have increased dramatically—vegetables cost 19% more than this point in 2023, and the price of potatoes rose by almost 34% from the preceding month. The cost of fuel has also risen steadily over recent weeks." https://kyivindependent.com/russia-faces-6th-straight-month-of-price-growth-bloomberg-reports/ Tougher to buy a home. "On July 1, Russia halted its preferential mortgage program after awarding loans to millions of people at interest rates of up to 8% — half the Central Bank’s current base rate." https://en.thebell.io/russia-ends-subsidized-mortgages-leaving-a-housing-bubble-and-inequality-behind/ Flipping the bird at the siloviki. "Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday signed a bill that raises income taxes for the rich" https://www.france24.com/en/europe/20240712-russia-increases-income-taxes-for-the-wealthy-to-help-fund-ukraine-offensive As Russia dumps Rubles into China, India is dumping Rupees into Russia. "India runs a huge trade deficit with Russia — in 2023-24, trade between the two countries touched $65 billion, of which India’s exports were just $4 billion and imports $61.4 billion." https://www.financialexpress.com/policy/economy-trade-deficit-with-russia-india-frames-multi-pronged-strategy-3554595/ And a short labor force. "The defense sector is short of about 160,000 specialists, Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov said last month – and this is despite 500,000 workers switching from the civilian sector to defense-related firms over the last 18 months." "The Labor Ministry predicts that, by 2030, Russia will be lacking 2.4 million workers." "migration in 2023 was at its lowest level since pandemic-hit 2020." https://en.thebell.io/russias-acute-labor-shortage/ I think Ukraine is still on track in 11 months to have the last laugh?
