https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/NY.GDP.MKTP.PP.CD?most_recent_value_desc=true

to do the same with ppp (”international dollars”), again click on the arrow in the column Most Recent Value.

Notice that these figures put China as #1.

The next chart tracks what has been happening with ppp-GDP over the past few years. You will see big changes involving India, China and Russia, and that these big changes preceded the war in Ukraine.

So, which numbers are more valid?

PPP when you’re looking at per capita GDP. “It depends” when you’re looking at GDP.

“Russian dog, posting Russian garbage.”

You know, it’s the Ukrainian partisans that put Ukrainian interests above those of the American people.

They hover in state somewhere between traitor and enemy of the American people.

Supporting Ukraine in its fight against Putin’s aggression is not putting Ukraine over the U.S. That’s a stupid argument.

Biden’s sanctions against Russia punished NATO countries including the US and benefited Russia. Brilliant strategy Joe!!!!

” That’s a stupid argument.”

NO, it’s not.

US interests and Ukrainian interests are wildly divergent. So much so that the pursuit of one is contrary to the other.

It is simply not possible to be an American patriot and a Ukrainian partisan. It’s one or the other.

They are not wildly divergent.

Ukraine opposes Russia.

Russia is an enemy of the United States.

“Ukraine opposes Russia.

Russia is an enemy of the United States.”

Since the US is not at war with Russia, that is an ephemeral and abstract interest, at best.

When it come to REAL interests, thing you can see, things you can count etc. our interests are WILDLY divergent.

And, it is also easy to make the case their national security interests are contrary to our as well. They want us at war with Russia. The US does not want war with Russia.
