[@hillbilly4895]

True, but countries under sanctions (limited or not) seem to have a way of limping along anyway. Yes, at the expense of their public/citizenry, but not crippled enough to bring regime change. Iran and Venezula come to mind. I've read that Putin's personal net worth hovers between $.5T and $1T. Talk about "doing better"? I think the next transition will be Putin the fake "President" to the real, and unmasked, dictator he is...except, with nukes and nowhere to run. Last time I checked, Iran and Venezula didn't have nukes.

the way you're always thinking so logically, and speaking so matter-of-fact, makes the moments where you consider the morality of a situation extra nice. it's refreshing how you're actually treating the complexity of human life as one of the factors contributing to outcomes, rather than ignoring it in favor of pure financial strategy.

"Russian oligarchs have been particularly impacted by the sanctions..." and the ground after they mysteriously fell from a window.

[@0xCAFEF00D]

We dream. But Russians aren't pressuring the government to the extent where any serious shuffles have happened yet. There's been 8 murdered of oligarchs according to CNN. Some are murder-suicides according to outside sources (like Spanish police). But it's clearly not just coincidence. I'm sure the Russian government is vile enough that some of these people can convince themselves that murder suicide is a good choice. But on the other hand there's Mikhail Watfords wife and children who are fine still despite him dying by hanging in the garage.

[@virtueorvice]

I think most people in the West fool themselves. Sanctions are ineffective. The oligarchs you mention have mostly moved their businesses to UAE and Turkey. Iran has been sanctioned for 40 years and they are one of the handful countries that enrich uranium. Open your eyes

A very comprehensive analysis! One of the (if not THE) best on KZbin!!!

[@apacheattackhelicopter8185]

As a Russian living in Europe I'm impressed by the quality of your research and data. A couple of notes : - The Central Bank has since rolled back the interest rate and capital controls but the ruble doesn't drop much and it's actually a problem for Russian economy. All the government expenses are in rubles, but revenue from oil&gas comes in foreign currency. So strong ruble means less revenue for the budget. - A deterioration of living standards is unlikely to cause unrest as Putin spent the last 10 years actively destroying opposition and civil liberties. People that have lost their jobs are more likely to join the Wagner mercenaries for money than to rebel. If there is coup, it will come from within the ruling class.

[@liamhalliday8437]

Just a general question, "living in Europe". Do you not count Russia as Europe? Is it Asia? Or just distinctively separate? Curious on your perception of it / Russian population as an average.

[@elizabethtamp1537]

You must be a troll! The first Rule of Kings is: No King rules alone - understand. The sear barbarism of the mainly Jewish Bolsheviks didn't over turn the wicked Soviet government, did it? 60 million Orthodoxed Christians murdered. Nohing will overturn Putin's government if you are truly Russian you will know he is extremely popular. Look at the 300 million in lockdown in Moaist China, people are starved in their homes, not one city rioting, not a single American sanction there. According to the acclaimed author Jim Rickards, and much to my surprise, stated one of the two smartest Central Bankers he has ever met in the world is Elvira Nabiullina.

You also forgot to say that Russia sold alot of oil at low prices, forcing companies to pay in foreign currency that is then converted by Gazprom to roubles, which was one of the dominant reasons why rouble got propped up. Also, pegging the currency to gold was another bold move.

[@TheRMD2]

Good move not bold though. It just takes alot of money to buy that gold.
