I posted similar info two weeks ago and was crowing about Trump’s ability to use this leverage against Putin. I was immediately flamed about it by Team Z. Can’t figure Zeepers out.

“Russia’s rainy day NWF has become the main source of financing Russia’s now persistent budget deficit. The fund’s liquid assets have dropped by about two thirds to just $39 billion from $112.7 billion before the Ukraine conflict.”

Not just a rainy day fund. It also pays pensions starting at age 60.

Problem solved if they raise age to 65 as the average male life expectancy is 64.
