“To pay their taxes, GAZPROM have been selling assets.”
Their HQ in St. Petersburg is the tallest building in Europe. Reportedly, they want to sell it as well, but nobody is buying into Russia, especially not at that scale.
In terms of taxes to the Treasury, Gazprom’s gross revenue on pipeline gas dropped from $105 Billion in 2021, to an estimated $28 Billion in 2024 (despite the Power of Siberia pipeline to China surging to its full capacity ahead of schedule). 2025 will be worse for them, with nowhere left to expand, and the Druzhba Pipeline having been shut off on January 1st.
Oil is the only thing that has kept Russia’s head above water this long, and they face bleak prospects on that front.
Before 2022 SVO, Russia was doing well, great revenue from petro exports, 2nd in weapons exports, lots of western investment…., but hey look at their GDP😂😎🍈
The drone's design allows it to remain stable while firing. The ZigZag is launched from a ground-based catapult and is equipped with a camera on a rotating gimbal, which improves its ability to capture targets.
