Small economy, yes, but a lot of exports that the world uses.

Deutches Bank just lost 40 some percent….thr dominoes are starting to fall….fasten your seatbelts.
“ferrous metals, wheat, aluminium, lumber, fertilizer, copper, nickel. titanium, boron, magnesium, gallium, hafnium, indium, niobium (columbium), rhenium and thallium”
The virtue signalers don’t even know what that stuff is or why it is important.
The “journalists” and politicians in the US are dumb as rocks—there is no cure for stupid.
Never trust a guy like Putin being backed into a corner and having the ability to launch nuclear missiles.
Oh Ya. Wheat?

Much more behind the scenes:
World Bank issues peculiar warning….prepare for global food shortages, Pray the US has a good planting season….if not “
“ Then I heard what sounded like a voice among the four living creatures, saying, “Two pounds of wheat for a day’s wages, and six pounds of barley for a day’s wages, and do not damage the oil and the wine!”
R 6:6
Did I mention Russia is a huge exporter of wheat and barley?
Not all Harvard economics professors are wrong all the time.
What do you know.
Never trust a guy like Putin being backed into a corner and having the ability to launch nuclear missiles.

Relax, not going to happen, Vlad wins this Ukie thingy…gets everything he mentioned in his speech.
Not many gas stations carry a large nuclear inventory.
A lot of Americans don’t even know Russia is the world’s largest wheat exporter.
They will know soon enough.
Russia is a threat not just because of its nukes but because of its plentiful natural resources, which if allowed to be exploited, would soon result in them becoming a major global economic power. So the US geostrategy is to prevent this from happening by isolating Russia and demonizing Putin. European dependence on Russia’s oil and gas is to be prevented at all costs lest Russia be allowed to gain sway over them with such dependence. Thus our elites have decided to bring us to the brink of nuclear war to assure this will never happen.
He’s not wrong. russia is basically mexico with nukes but without good food.
“University”, “professor”....nough said.
Russia is a major exporter of: Grain, Fertilizer, Timber, Nickel, Palladium, other rare earth metals, Lithium, natural gas, oil, etc.
That’s all very useful stuff....stuff people will pay good money for.
Not so
“Is this Obama guy stupid?”
Given the fact he went to harvard I would say it’s a given.
Does he say the same about the Middle East?
Signs of the End Times. Plagues, wars and rumors of wars, and famine. Do we hear hoofbeats?
You mean the global economy that depends 100% on gasoline to function? Got it.
You left out palladium and gold.
Yeah I’ve postulated the question to Russian defenders here on FR, what great awesome companies (Industrial or Commercial) does Russia have besides Gazprom and they really don’t have much.
I would bet Mexico or even Turkey has more international companies that do better on the international stage than Russia.
That, and the fact that every woman living there wants to run away to a western nation.
Makes you wonder how Russia even functions.
