The Russian economy cannot afford to lose this war or win this war.Be fun to watch the Russian war economy try to absorb these costs.
Wounded Veterans, Wounded Economy: The Personnel Costs of Russia’s War - War on the Rocks

Reality:Wrong sanctions: Russia entered the top ten countries in terms of trade surplus
Moreover, speaking about Russia’s successes in terms of trade surplus, it is worth noting that it was achieved not only and not so much through the traditional export of raw materials, primarily hydrocarbons. Thus, at the end of last year, the Russian Federation became the fourth country in the world in the export of agricultural products, took first place in the sale of wheat abroad and became one of the world leaders in the production of meat products. Russian agricultural products are supplied to approximately 150 countries around the world, despite external difficulties and obstacles imposed by the West.
In fact, the country has achieved almost complete food security, except that bananas still have to be imported. Total revenue from agricultural exports amounted to $43,5 billion last year. But in the summer of 2022, Moscow agreed to conclude the so-called grain deal precisely so that the West would lift the ban on food exports from the Russian Federation. Our former partners deceived us again, but Russia coped with this too. Some “wrong” sanctions were imposed on our country.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy went to CNN to criticize Donald Trump’s Vice President pick, J.D. Vance suggesting that Vance ‘doesn’t understand what war means.’Reporter:“Vance said that even if you got the $60 billion in aid, it is not going to fundamentally change the reality on the battlefield. What's your response to that?”Zelensky:”I’m not trying to make him understand what's going on here. And we don't need any rhetoric from people who are not deeply in the know, in the war.To understand, that is to come to the frontline to see what's going on; to speak with the people; then go to civilians and what will be with them, and then what will be with them without this support.He will understand that millions of people will be killed.”
