That guy looks old as fuck. Is he going to croak soon?
War is very expensive and the reserves Russia set aside for that war ran out some time ago. Meanwhile Ukraine keeps blasting their refineries faster than they can be repaired, and this is going fast. 17% capacity was gone end of August. Now it’s near 40%. Russia is planning for importing fuel these days to keep as much as possible running. Meanwhile they’re exporting crude oil and making a lot less money from that.
What is Russia ? Russia is a gas station with nukes.
Luckily, they can count on millions of car-addicts and millions of plastic bottle addicts around the world.
If we reduced car dependency and encouraged people to use glass bottles, the price of oil would crash and Russia would feel pain.
You could replace Russia with USA and Kremlin with Whitehouse and it would still make sense.
In what way. Please elaborate.
(heh.)
Inb4: OP was just referring to the titel and angry americans followed
Just the way that this would make sense to me.
America’s economy is creaking — and the Whitehouse wants Americans to pay more for the war
what war?
Couldn’t happen to a shittier country. Well, it would be lovely to see a similar story regarding Israel.
