“Russia’s economy isn’t growing”

I didn’t say their economy was growing, I said that the WORLD BANK said that Russia’s economy is growing.

If you don’t like that, make up a poster and go to DC to protest the World Bank. Otherwise quit making crap up just because your side FAILED in its attempt to bring Russia to its knees.

--- To the 'seminar caller' from Canada, you wrote, "I didn’t say their economy was growing, I said that the WORLD BANK said that Russia’s economy is growing."

It fascinates me that much within threads on Free Republic involves assertions without citations and mis-quoted stuff, of which you write, as if stirring the pot is a game. How many times have I seen "LOL" as a comment on some thread discussing people dying? Yuck, yuck.

—”I said that the WORLD BANK said that Russia’s economy is growing.”

Do you make the BS up as you type, or does your handler feed it to you?

“World Bank Russia economy
According to the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), 2022 was a bad year for the Russian economy. It is estimated that in 2022, Russia’s gross domestic product (GDP) dropped by 2.1%. Russia’s economy may continue to shrink in 2023.May 4, 2023”

The World Bank says this about Russia:

"GDP is expected to decrease by 4.5 percent in 2022 and by a further 3.6 percent in 2023, as the economy continues to contract due to the impact of sanctions, including those coming into force at the end of this year (notably the EU partial oil ban and to a lesser extent the oil price cap)."

What part of that statement do you think supports your claim that the World Bank "said that Russia's economy is growing"?

World Bank
