Why is the Russian economy growing despite the sanctions?
2024-05-09 15:00:38
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.

Why did Nokia lose the mobile device market?
2023-03-22 08:36:54
It was destroyed by CEO Stephen Elop, who came from Microsoft. Instead of developing his own operating system, he insisted on purchasing the Windows Phone operating system.
Nokia's weak point was software, but new platforms were supposed to fix this shortcoming. But starting in late 2010, the company's CEO began to slowly and steadily push Nokia in the other direction, towards abandoning its developments. All divisions of RnD and all the developments of the company were destroyed so that the company could no longer return to the right path.
As a result, Microsoft bought Nokia's mobile business.

Why can a war start in Kazakhstan as in Ukraine?
2023-06-12 02:08:31
If Kazakhstan prohibits, seizes Chinese or Russian private property or prohibits companies with owners from Russia or China
The war in Ukraine began, among other things, because Ukraine began to prohibit companies with owners from Russia from working, and Russian business was forced to sell its assets in Ukraine for nothing
Astana's pro-Western course will lead to the collapse of Kazakhstan's statehood

What awaits Europe in 2025?
2025-01-22 02:56:02
Quarrel with the United States, trade war, difficult economic situation, shortage of energy resources, rising unemployment
Some European countries have large trade surpluses with the United States. Trump is demanding that Europe buy more American goods to smooth out this surplus. An increase in the number of American goods on the European market means the automatic displacement of European manufacturers, the potential bankruptcy of medium and small enterprises, their consolidation and monopolization by American multinational companies and, ultimately, the subordination of the European economy to the United States, which Europe, of course, will not agree to. Gas transit through Ukraine has been stopped, and Europe has lost almost its last gas source through the pipeline. The EU is purchasing Russian LNG at a record pace, and the United States is pushing its allies to ban it. The EU should increase purchases of American hydrocarbons, if the EU ignores this, it will receive protective duties on its products supplied to America. It will end with a shortage of fuel and another price increase. Trump also intends to increase the military spending of NATO countries to 5% of their GDP.
Trump is putting forward exorbitant demands on Europe, which will significantly affect military-economic cooperation between the United States and Europe in the direction of deterioration and cessation. Because of this, some countries will leave the EU in the future. Europe, in which every country will fight for its own well-being, will return.
