Meanwhile in Ukraine

[The Conservative]

I've already said it, I'll say it again, they are trying to encompass Ukraine from the land and ocean transports. Once that is done Russia will go to the negotiation table. Not sooner...

Also, remember how I said India and China will buy Russia's oil... who do you think their biggest buyers are now?

As I said and will say again. Russia is going to look like they are winning short-term, but because of the weakness of China, and how Russia is now using the gold standard... Russia will lose in the long run.

Why keep saying anything? You aren't the only one saying that by the way nor are you the first.

Because. The horse, she’s dead. So why keep kicking it?

How would Russia adopting a gold standard hurt Russia.
If anything it's the opposite. Short term hurt, but long term gain by decoupling from the batshit west's economies.

Scott Ritter with a good update on Ukraine
Bottom Line, support of Ukraine has tapped out NATOs war resources. Ukraine has been foolishly wasting those resources and they want more, more than NATO has to give.

NATO meeting tomorrow about where to go from here.

As always Ritter's analysis is pretty solid. The only thing that I've ever heard him say that was incorrect, was when he predicted the Russians would win in a few weeks back in March.

Our political overlords live in a groupthink fantasy. This is only a bad thing if they had the interests of the American people in mind. They do not. If the people at the top are all lying to each other as well as the people, the possibility of making mistakes increases dramatically.

Good. I want the regime that is slowly genociding my people to make as many mistakes as possible.

Yet, you do. You aren't the smartest person in the room despite your delusions otherwise.

Is there anyone in this forum that doesn't think of themself as the smartest person in the room?

Me for starters. I am an idiot.

If anything it's the opposite. Short term hurt, but long term gain by decoupling from the batshit west's economies.

This +1

Each time they print more money it reduces the value by a factor. (if they can at all) for starters.

Also with China and India being their biggest expoerters for oil, if one crashes and burns in a financial collapse, Russia’s income will be reduced significantly.

Russia will win short term, they will lose long term. Especially if a pro USA first president gets into office next. China is the next to get hit, and in turn Russia.

You seem to have missed the part where they’re adopting a gold standard. The currency is pegged and interchangeable with physical gold. They cannot print more of it.
