The Ruble has been selling off for months-
it is close to invasion day panic lows after being higher much of the war. This despite higher oil and gas prices.
it is the only objective scoreboard.
Anyone can see it in 10secs ruble usd chart.
Hersh is wrong, Putin can’t afford much more unless EU has a sub arctic winner.
Just stop. The ruble was .013/USD before the incursion, its at 0.11 now. Sanctions backfired and Russia is thriving. Russia just displaced Germany as the largest GDP in Europe and is now the 5th largest in the world. Meanwhile, Russians pay half what we do at the pumps, and Western Europe is degrading into a 3rd world hellhole.
