Despite the fact that Putin's Government increased the planned budget deficit several times during the year, they still did not meet it. In December, everything that had been so diligently hidden under the rug for an entire year came to light.The deficit was a record breaking, and Russia simply cannot afford to spend so much. The liquid part of the National Welfare Fund is almost spent, revenues are not growing, but expenses are increasing several fold.And then there is Trump with his ideas to bring down oil prices. It is impossible to say yet whether he will succeed in his plan, because it will also affect American oil producers, but technically such a possibility exists if the new American president comes to an agreement with OPEC.In general, the Russian economy is not doing well anyway, and if Trump implements his plans, it could accelerate the onset of a serious crisis, says Vladimir Milov in a new economic report.YouTube channel of Vladimir Milov: @Vladimir_MilovSupport Vlad's work:Patreon: / milov Crypto: http://milov.org/donate.htm /Vladimir Milov on other social media:Telegram: https://t.me/team_milov Facebook: /milov.vladimir Twitter: / v_milov Instaghram: /milov_ruEnglish translation by PrivateerStationOriginal video in Russian: https://youtu.be/LLz7SZsx0xQ--------------------------------------------------Privateer Station on Spreaker: https://www.spreaker.com/show/privateer-station-war-in-ukrainePS on Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-1582435PS on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/privateerstationPS on iHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/53-privateer-station-war-in-uk-101486106/PS on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5iEdf0Jyw1Y3kN04k8rPibPS on ApplePodcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/privateer-station-war-in-ukraine/id1648603352PS on Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuc3ByZWFrZXIuY29tL3Nob3cvNTY0NzQzOS9lcGlzb2Rlcy9mZWVkPS on PadcastAddict: https://podcastaddict.com/podcast/4079993PS on PodChaser: https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/privateer-station-war-in-ukrai-4860097PS on Deezer: https://www.deezer.com/us/show/4546617PS on Castbox: https://castbox.fm/channel/id5162050If you like what we do and would like to support our channel, consider becoming a member:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCT3qCbfcPbnph7QS3CPBTMQ/joinBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/privateer-station-war-in-ukraine--5647439/support.

Edition No65 | 24-11-2024 - We've been predicting that the Russian economy would implode for going on two years, but also pointing out that Russian Central bankers may be able to preserve an impression of stability and normalcy for some considerable time. And so, it's proved. Russia has been more adept at creating an alternative economy to replace Western exports, and indeed not all the revenue from Western markets dried up despite three nearly years of full-sale war. Grey markets, grey fleets and the fundamental shift to running a brazenly dark economy have helped Russia hugely recover from the initial economic shock of Feb-22. ---------- SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISER A project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's frontline towns. https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras ---------- Indeed, it's the willingness of many countries, especially China and India to benefit from discounted Russian exports of hydrocarbons and raw material that has kept the cash flowing into Russia's war machine. Many western countries have been entirely hypocritical on this, paying lip service to sanctions, but turning a blind eye as their manufactured goods continues to flow into Russia via intermediary countries neighbouring Putin's empire. It turns out there are three key levers that can trigger crisis and even collapse in the Russian economy. And to an extent, these could have been triggered at any time over the last 3 years. - Reduce Russia's sovereign wealth funds that maintain the war economy and currency - Work to reduce the global price of oil, hitting Russia's grey fleet exports hard - Tighten sanction to stop the flow of goods and revenue into Kremlin war machine Russia amassed a huge sovereign wealth fund over many years of relatively frugal financial management amid soaring oil prices. It's mind boggling to think what could have been done to improve standards of living in Russia if you combine the revenues wasted on war with the mountains of cash stolen by the kleptocratic classes. Anyway, that wealth fund – the fighting war chest – is running out. The flows of money into it from the external economy are lessening or are held in non-conventical currencies such as Rupees or Yuan. The domestic economy is flagging (and the income it generates in taxes) as is moves to more of a nationalised, militarised economy. So, the money lake is draining down. ---------- NEWS SOURCES: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/nov/27/russias-rouble-plunges-to-lowest-rate-since-early-weeks-of-ukraine-war https://www.ft.com/content/6189fdb4-d1ef-4e0b-a7f1-e7f9a7286df5 https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2024/11/27/7486548/ https://timothyash.substack.com/p/the-rouble-is-melting-finally?r=ynli4&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&triedRedirect=true https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2024/11/27/russian-central-bank-halts-currency-buying-until-2025-as-ruble-slides-a87147 ---------- SUPPORT THE CHANNEL: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain https://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain ---------- TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND: Save Ukraine https://www.saveukraineua.org/ Superhumans - Hospital for war traumas https://superhumans.com/en/ UNBROKEN - Treatment.

Breakthrough of Ukrainian Armed Forces into the Kursk region has not only a military and political aspect, but also a financial one, related to gas pipelines. Sudzha gas metering station has a strong impact on the report on Russia's contractual obligations to those European countries that it still pumps gas to. This facility is currently under control of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Moreover, the Ukrainian military could potentially seize other gas facilities in the region, which would hit Putin's money hard.Federal budget expenditures, the deficit of which had recentlyspiked, have also increased sharply. But a new challenge from the Ukrainian Armed Forces requires additional spending. So even in such a difficult economic situation, Putin may decide to increase expenditures. An important question is whether he will risk another round of mobilization. From a political point of view, this is a risk, from an economic point of view, it is a catastrophe, but from a military point of view, it has long been a necessity.This and much more in the latest economic report with Vladimir Milov!YouTube channel of Vladimir Milov: @Vladimir_MilovEnglish translation by PrivateerStationOriginal video in Russian: https://youtu.be/RPdGgRO7fdwOriginal material by: Michael NackeYou can support them

The money in the Russian budget is so good that taxes are being raised again. Moreover, the authorities are trying to talk people down by telling them that they will only affect the “rich” (and a rich person in Russia, as it turns out, is someone who earns more than 2,000 dollars). In fact, the main blow comes not from there, but from an increase in business income tax. And, of course, it will be transferred down to the consumer and included in retail pricing.Everything is also great with gasoline, so much so that Russia has stopped publishing data on its production.

Two high-profile events of the week - one external, the other internal. Putin traveled to China, and Belousov replaced Shoigu as defense minister. The mainstream view of these events is specific: supposedly the friendship between China and Russia has strengthened, and the strong economist Belousov will now strengthen the military-industrial complex.Vladimir Milov thinks differently. No serious agreements were reached between Putin and Xi Jinping, despite the record-breaking large delegation. Russia is completely under the rule of China, and China is not going to be a partner, it is simply pumping out resources. As for Belousov, Milov believes that at best he will not be able to change anything, and at worst he will simply break things up, due to lack of outstanding talents, and a track record of ruined projects.About this and much more in the latest economic report!YouTube channel of Vladimir Milov: @Vladimir_MilovEnglish translation by PrivateerStationOriginal video in Russian: https://youtu.be/SXWJiKDLQSEOriginal material by: Michael NackeYou can support them

The impact of Ukrainian attacks on Russian refineries is beginning to show.Gasoline production collapsed. Down 17% by the end of February. It's hard to remember when this ever happened. The expectations of Nabiullina, who kept trying to convince everyone that there were some signs for reduced inflation, did not come true. On the contrary, inflationary processes re-ignited. Unfortunately, military production also began to grow, which still remains a little mysterious, as for several months before this the defense industry showed production stagnation. Is this an isolated incident or a new trend? We discuss it in the latest economic report with Vladimir Milov.The main Russian problem remains the shortage of personnel, which is only exacerbating. Milov believes that this is one of the main reasons why Putin does not want to carry out mobilization in full force, as it will simply destroy the economy.All this in this latest podcast!YouTube channel of Vladimir Milov: @Vladimir_MilovEnglish translation by PrivateerStationOriginal video in Russian: https://youtu.be/093SBG2-yXsOriginal material by: Michael NackeYou can support them

As the fight on NATO's border has intensified, the West's response has been to make war with Russia - economic war. Sanctions, not bombs, have been the weapon chosen to take on the Putin regime and Western leaders have devised ever more elaborate tortures for the Rouble. In light of diminishing appetite for war and financial inducements over the past century, trade and financial sanctions have increasingly become the preferred tool of statecraft employed by countries around the world. But how effective are they? Author and columnist for The Economist, Duncan Weldon, explores the strengths and weaknesses of economic sanctions. Looking at historical uses over the past 100 years, Duncan examines to what extent and in what scenarios they achieve foreign policy aims. He also reflects on the unintended consequences and the impact on economies. And he considers what the sanctions against Russia, in response to the invasion of Ukraine, mean for the global economy and the future geopolitical landscape. With Daniel Dresner, Professor of international politics at the Fletcher school of law and diplomacy at Tufts University; Dr Erica Moret, Senior Researcher at the Centre for Global Governance and Humanitarian Studies at the Graduate Institute, Geneva; Nathanael Tilahun, a lawyer and Professor of International Law at University of Coventry specialising in sanctions, security and financial crime; Macroeconomist Rachel Ziemba, founder of Ziemba Insights and adjunct senior fellow at The Center for A New American Security in Washington; and Taban Osman, a Kurdish Iraqi, actor and singer from Sulemani in northern Iraq.
