3.5% growth in 2023 outpaced the rest of Europe. In most cases, by many times.

The structural shift to increased manufacturing has been the most important result of the sanctions.

“We have never seen anything like that before: while we used to make money from oil and gas [exports], 2023 was the first year when our processing, our manufacturing sector has been growing much faster and generated much more revenue. What we’re witnessing are structural shifts in our economy, and they are very important,” Putin stated.

For a while it was cheaper for Russia to buy things from abroad then invest in and restart stalled industries, but not any more. Over the last 2 years, the investments in manufacturing have already paid off.

Even NPR is talking up the Russian economy, with a guest from the Carnegie Center.

And Russias closest allies and neighbors are booming too.

Everything they tried to feed you all about Russias economic collapse, contracting by 15%, them bringing most of the Eurasian Economic Union down with them, Russias “isolation” in the world, it was all wrong.

What did it accomplish except crash our friends economies and get us to spend taxpayer money on a corrupt money pit? Who is broke and borrowing tens of billions per week to stay afloat?

Hint-It ain’t Russia lol.

Well if the rise is per capita, there is a lot less men around to be counted.

Putin never lies.

You have an unhealthy obsession with Russia.

They have a male shortage, I’m sure they’ll welcome you with open arms if you want to go check it out.

He’s avoiding conscription by working on the troll farm.

Russian manufacturers have been flooded with new orders, and are expanding at their fastest clip in years.

It must be those sanctions that are going to start kicking in sometime “very soon.”

Secure borders, support for domestic manufacturing, protections for traditional families/children, citizens not afraid to take a subway or shop in a store (where items are not locked up).

How much more evil can that place be? It goes against everything modern US stands for.

The WEF/GloboHomo agenda’s worst nightmare—and the main reason Putin is so vilified.

And now they are rounding up people who are in the country illegally. What depths will that country sink to next!? The globalists aren’t going to like this.

Why? We don't live in Russia.

Percent changes can easily be manipulated because of, well, math. In other words, a large percent change may not mean much of anything given what the initial figure is.

In other news, I believe economic data coming out of Russia about as much as I do data coming out of China.

Heck, I don't believe the info coming out of the US half the time.

Waiting for Russia's biggest cheerleader to go first. Todor.....

Or, I may just stay here and continue to demand better foreign policy decision making and less borrowing.

We borrowed trillions of dollars and could not even hold on to Afghanistan.

The idea that we can borrow our way into bankrupting other countries to try to get them do what we want is just bad policy. And the level of misunderstanding someone had to think that this would work on Russia is so far removed from reality that it’s laughable.

Some may call it cheerleading, but it is merely pointing out miserably failed policies that are costing us our future.

The US has almost $300,000 in federal debt per household. We aren’t really richer than anyone. We’re just more in debt and spending the future of the country away on foreign policy foolishness like regime change games.

Our debt is equivalent to the annual economies of China, Germany, Japan, India and the UK combined. And we aren’t borrowing for healthcare, for food, for actual defense of the country. We’re borrowing to launder money to give to connected, corrupt rich people . Laugh all you want at other countries, their economies, their GDP etc, but they’re a hell of a lot smarter than we are.

The idea that NATO, EU, and the US could crash Russias economy as easily we seemed to think showed a total ignorance of reality and was stupid policy.

Take a deep dive into Russia's economic numbers then. Tell us what you find.
