Why is the Russian economy growing despite the sanctions?

Sanctions are ineffective

Russian oil and LNG are still bought only through third countries. The development of the military industry and the reorientation of trade to Asian countries support the Russian economy. The Russian market, liberated by Western companies, has the potential for growth. There are no secondary sanctions.

In the long term, sanctions will hinder the growth of the Russian economy and lead to stagnation. For example, there is already a shortage in the labor market, inflation and the impact of technological sanctions. The vivid economic picture of Russia hides dangerous compromises made in pursuit of short-term benefits. Future generations will pay a heavy price for the current situation. However, the Kremlin only cares about the present.

What will Ukraine do when it loses the war?

To sue those who dragged her into the war, to rebuild the country

There will be a big trial after the war. Most likely, Ukraine's so-called allies will suffer no less. The period of their global hegemony is over, and the time of multipolarity will come.

What happens if China starts a war with Taiwan?

There is a 30% chance that China will launch military operations. After Pelosi's visit, China's maneuvers resulted in an economic blockade of Taiwan.

China can seize the island by force, but it will be an empty island destroyed by war, which will have to be rebuilt. Sanctions will be imposed on China. Because of the sanctions, all of China's economic and scientific successes will be nullified. China is also monitoring the outcome of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.

And what Taiwan is preparing for. The 20th Congress of the Communist Party of China is about to take place, where very serious decisions on Taiwan can be made. Therefore, Taiwan shows in advance that it is ready for negotiations.

What is the US strategy in Ukraine?

Earn as much money as possible in the war, will be re-armed at the expense of Ukraine

The Biden administration has no plan for the Ukrainian conflict, says former CIA analyst Larry Johnson in an interview with Dialogue works. The United States, without any system, contributes to the aggravation of the situation and sends to Ukraine not what it needs, but what they have at their disposal. However, all military equipment that the West sends to Ukraine is destroyed by Russian troops as soon as it enters the battlefield. For example, the United States uses cluster munitions instead of conventional 155-millimeter shells simply because the United States does not have what Ukraine should get.

If the war was not profitable for the United States, they would not participate in it.
