Rubles per dollar, so retrospectively since the start of war rubble is up 20%. Dont get me wrong, their currency is not trade currency and never was. The economy overall, GDP-growth forecast for 2024 at 3.9 percent positive and 3.6 positive in 2023. Russia also recently hosted Bricks and met a bunch of our allies that ignored the international court rulling, so isolation is a joke.

It's not that the West CAN'T build up on the military industrial front quickly - it's just that we've CHOSEN NOT TO.

The last thing I want to see is for the US to lower its role vis a vis Russia, but at the same time I think all of the nations of Europe also need to be operating AS THOUGH THE US WERE NOT PRESENT. Europe's collective economy puts Russia's to shame - there is no excuse for you guys not out-spending them by a large margin. You should regard the United States as a "bonus" and not as the "spine of the anti-Russian collective." I realize that's politically difficult, but just the same - it's what you should do.

Uhhh, no. lol. I can literally cite production numbers, and production goals over the next several years (which so far have all failed).

[@akeleven]

Biden could have given them air power and they could have won already.

[@godfreydebouillon8807]

@KipIngram No, that's not how it works. During WW2, the US was filled with factories that were altered to produce weapons and military equipment. That's why from the time we were bombed (1941) to the time we could invade Europe was 3 1/3 years, because something like that can't happen quickly. Those factories no longer exist. If creating investment packages or bank notes could win a war, then we'd win. Russia keeps all of these factories in place, even builds new ones, to sit there and do nothing, all for the purpose of being able to massively increase military production at a moments notice, which is why all the silly predictions that they'd run out of all this was just absurd. All military production capacity is apart of the state, and is considered apart of the military itself. What they're capable of doing now is VASTLY more than their capabilities last year, which will be vastly more a year from now. You don't have to believe me, but it will be so obvious by then, denying it won't be an option. The "Green Economy" simply isn't setup for this and will not be able to compete. I'm not simply guessing about this. These numbers are available. The numbers of artillery, missiles, AA missiles etc. The numbers that NATO are producing is comparatively tiny. Their projected output (their goals) over the years to come do not match Russias, let alone throwing China and others into the mix. I'm sorry, but these propaganda outlets just aren't being honest

[@marcolovic2240]

So you're safe over there but you call for Eurasia to tear itself apart? so ...what? you can repeat your one trick pony miracle years of ww2? In ww2 US was suffering the depression, it would have stagnated as a backwater for decades had it not been for the war. Specifically the way they played it. You see there is nothing financially special about wars, they are costly. The US stayed out of ww2 until every actor was spent and weakened from fighting while the US was fresh and they managed to go through the pockets of the deceased so to speak, THEY WOULD LIKE A REPEAT OF WW2 specifically for it to kick off in europe and for them to sit it out making side bets and loans.

@@richardlellip.e.m.b.a.7969 Russian economy is on it's knees. Literally anybody with any economic knowledge or experience can see it. My comment about your stats was because Turkey, for example yes it's high, almost 50% from memory, is not 3x current Russian inflation rates. Potatoes in Russia rose 66% from August to October... Butter has doubled, that's 100% inflation. And Russia has lied to IMF about its GDP for years now...only discovered since the invasion. So we can't trust their numbers. You can if you wish. But coming to conclusions based on that, yeah that's not an intelligent move

Has anyone read the famous article 5? The key point is "action as it deems necessary". It does not say "join in battle". “The Parties agree that an armed attack against one or more of them in Europe or North America shall be considered an attack against them all and consequently they agree that, if such an armed attack occurs, each of them, in exercise of the right of individual or collective self-defence recognized by Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations, will assist the Party or Parties so attacked by taking forthwith, individually and in concert with the other Parties, such action as it deems necessary, including the use of armed force, to restore and maintain the security of the North Atlantic area

Zelenskyy admitted that Ukraine is unable to capture liberated territories by military force. "Our army lacks the strength for this. It's true," he said. "We must find diplomatic solutions." Former Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba - “Do we today have the means and tools to turn the tables and change the trajectory of how things are happening? No, we don’t,” Kuleba told the British newspaper in an interview published on Friday, adding: “And if it continues like this, we will lose the war.” The news from the Ukrainian front line is grim. Ukrainian forces are heavily outnumbered and outmatched in artillery and ammunition. There are growing signs of exhaustion, demoralization, desertion, and evasion of service by both the elites and ordinary people. Russian success is grounded in the fact that Russia simply has far greater resources than Ukraine in terms of both industry and manpower. It has been able to recruit hundreds of thousands of new troops by paying them very high wages, up to six times the average salaries in the regions from which they are drawn. Western industry cannot produce anything like the number of artillery shells Ukraine needs. Ukraine: Compromise or collapse.

[@tobiasrietveld3819]

At this point in time Russia no longer effectively has 'greater resources' than Ukraine. Putin wouldn't be begging material and troops from North-Korea if he wasn't desperate.

I think this is just postponing the inevitable for Ukraine, they are receiving so much aid from their allies that they are barely surviving with huge losses. It is not possible to stop the Russian army in this way, and let's forget about sanctions and the collapse of the economy, this does not work in this case or works too slowly, and if we wait for Russia to collapse, we have already lost, immediate negotiations or an allied army in Ukraine, the only two solutions.

[@bluemarlin8138]

You’re confusing the unwillingness to ramp up production with the inability to do so. If Western Europe wanted to actually spend the money to out-produce Ruzzia, it could easily do so. But it has been hedging its bets and taking half-measures, hoping that the U.S. would take care of most of that part and that it could concentrate on financial aid, or that the whole thing would just go away. I don’t think they’ve actually gotten serious about it until now. And even in the U.S., it has been hard to get sufficient funding to do what is necessary for mostly political reasons. Also, a lot of the money being used to ramp up U.S. production of ammo and missiles was in the aid package that got held up for 6 months, so it has gotten a late start.
