Pay $1.81/gallon for gas

Gas in Russia is cheaper than Gas in Qatar or Bahrain or Saudi Arabia.

Unable to buy $30/lb luxury Italian Cheese, $30/bottle midrange French Wines, expensive German Audio Equipment... what will the Russians do with themselves?

Eat local cheese, drink local beer, and buy the same audio equipment from China that's on Amazon USA

SYDNEY (Reuters) -A Fiji court ruled on Tuesday that the United States can seize a Russian-owned superyacht, 21 days after it arrived and was impounded by police, as the United States and its allies press Russia over its invasion of Ukraine.

U.S. authorities assert that the luxury vessel, the Amadea, is ultimately owned by Russian oligarch Suleiman Kerimov, who has been sanctioned by the United States and the European Union.
The U.S. Justice Department’s Taskforce KleptoCapture has focused on seizing yachts and other luxury assets to put the finances of Russian oligarchs under strain in a bid to pressure Russian President Vladimir Putin over the war in Ukraine.
Fiji’s High Court granted the order to seize the Amadea, Fiji’s Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions said in a statement.
The order was made after the DPP applied to register a U.S. warrant to seize the yacht, it said.

Yeah, even small shipping containers are 28' long or so. That thing is damn near a football field long. Just rent a ship that fucking big. Why own it? You've got the money as an oligarch. Even if it was your primary residence, it makes no sense. Shitty marina I might add. I'm sure that's so peaceful with all the cargo containers getting loaded daily. True luxury.

Moscow — Russia has eased safety standards for cars produced on its territory, such as dropping the requirement for airbags, after Western sanctions over the war in Ukraine caused a shortage of electronic components and car parts. In a decree signed on May 12, the Russian government announced a list of reduced requirements to certify some types of new vehicles produced in the country.

It includes the production of cars without Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) sensors, airbags or Emergency Locking Retractors (ELR) for seatbelts. The decree is in effect until February 1, 2023.


Seatbelts? WE DON"T NEED NO STINKING SEATBELTS!!!
150   Eric Holder   2022 May 20, 1:35pm  



Production of Russia's Soviet-era car brand the Moskvich could resume using a Chinese platform in partnership with truckmaker Kamaz, two sources told Reuters on Thursday, with the model to be built at Renault's former Moscow factory.

The sources told Reuters that Kamaz was in talks with its partner, Chinese carmaker JAC, about using its design, engineering and production platform to produce the brand. Kamaz and Moskvich declined to comment.

The Moskvich is set to make a surprise comeback in Russia as Moscow takes over assets belonging to Renault, after the French carmaker said it was selling its majority stake in Avtovaz to a Russian science institute.

Russian business daily Vedomosti, which first reported the news on Thursday, cited a source as saying that production would begin no later than the fourth quarter of this year.






Will it have seatbelts?

NO MORE HITLER CARS IN RUSSIA!

The Kaluga region, south of Moscow, once known for its 'economic miracle' after attracting major foreign carmakers, is threatened by Western sanctions amid the ongoing war in Ukraine.

Had he known, Dmitri Petrov would not have undertaken the imposing project of adding a second floor to the charming brick house that he and his wife have been building for three decades. The result is convincing, though and construction is well under way. The garden looks like a small English park, with its neat pond, its impeccable lawn and the very Russian-style vegetable garden, which is awaiting summer to yield juicy vegetables.

But he is facing two issues. Since the onset of the war in Ukraine, on February 24, inflation is rising and the price of building materials has almost doubled. According to Mr. Petrov, 50, it's not the right time for grandiose projects, but rather one of uncertainty, in the Kaluga region, south of Moscow, where sanctions are being felt.

More on this topic French carmaker Renault sells Russian assets to Moscow

Mr. Petrov is a Volkswagen employee, a forklift operator. Tomorrow will mark his third month of temporary lay-off. His pay, which he usually considers "very good," was reduced by one third. Not only is he now paying attention to the price of building materials, but also to that of basic necessities like milk, which he loves. Had he known the tough situation awaiting Russia amid sanctions that he finds "unjust," Mr. Petrov would have waited a bit more for his house extension project.


HE"S NOW PROTECTED FROM JOOISH NAZIS MARCHING INTO KALUGA AND DEMOLISHING HIS HOUSE SO HE SHOULD BE GRATEFUL!!! AND THE RUBBLE IS SO HIGH HIS 1/3 PAY CUT IS ACTUALLY A RAISE!!!

Russian Minister of Transport Vitaly Savelyev said that the sanctions have led to serious problems with logistics in Russia.

“Those sanctions that were imposed today on the Russian Federation practically broke all the logistics in our country. And we are forced to look for new logistics corridors,” he told reporters during a visit to the Astrakhan region.

Russia is running out of reagents for medical tests

Anna Kiseleva Margarita Sobol

An increase in the delivery time of equipment, reagents and consumables is confirmed by 63.1% of employees of public and private clinical and biological laboratories, showed a survey conducted at the request of Vedomosti by the Aktion medicine company, which is part of the Aktion group. The study involved 130 respondents: heads (53.8%) and doctors of laboratories (21.5%), as well as biologists, technologists, laboratory assistants (10.8%), nurses (6.2%), chief doctors and specialists on public procurement of medical organizations (5.4 and 2.3%, respectively). 49.2% of respondents noted interruptions in supplies, and in 20% they stopped altogether. Another 18.5% of respondents had to switch to new manufacturers and distributors, 16.2% had problems with paying for supplies. And only 5.4% of respondents said that nothing has changed in their work.

On May 20, a patient of the seventh branch of the Moscow Polyclinic No. 121 could not get a referral from a doctor for a complete blood count. The doctor explained his refusal by the lack of reagents in the laboratory, she told Vedomosti. Other visitors to medical institutions also face a similar problem. For example, a doctor at a polyclinic in Krasnoznamensk, near Moscow, for the same reason, warned that referrals for even a simple blood test would not be issued, a resident of the city said. Due to difficulties with consumables, veterinary clinics performed biochemical tests only in emergency cases in April, says Yan Muzalevsky, chief physician of the Alisa network of Moscow veterinary clinics.

Lets not give (some of) ourselves a false hope - Russian economy is uniquely resistant against sanctions. Everything boils down to (1) how bad will it go for them in Ukraine, and (2) how much lowering of their life quality will Russian population tolerate.

https://oilprice.com/Energy/Energy-General/Why-Russias-Economy-Hasnt-Collapsed-Under-The-Weight-Of-Sanctions.html

Until now, a majority of analysis has focused on Russia’s military failures, Zelensky's impressive leadership, and the surprisingly unified response of the international community. What has been relatively overlooked is the resilience of Russia’s economy when it comes to surviving sanctions. In a globalized world that is already suffering from supply chain problems, an energy shortage, and an economic slowdown, it is remarkable that sanctions have failed to bring Russia’s economy to its knees.

Firstly, and most importantly, it is Russia’s unique position as a net exporter of both energy and key foodstuffs that has allowed it to stay afloat. If similar sanctions had been placed on a net importer like China, for example, you could eventually expect deindustrialization, famine, and mass unrest. It would be a disaster. Russia, on the other hand, is uniquely positioned to survive this economic assault. It is also able to run a massive trade surplus because of its energy exports and because oil and gas prices are at multi-year highs.

While Russia is surviving, the long-term outlook for the Russian economy is dire. The extreme measures that have been put in place to counter sanctions are not long-term solutions, and if the illusion of stability in the ruble eventually collapses, the economy will too. The country also has to deal with its inability to access the technology and goods necessary to maintain key industries. Other realities such as ‘brain drain’, caused by international isolation, and the eventual reduction in demand for its oil and gas exports will only further diminish its economic strength. Russia has survived sanctions better than almost any other country could, but the struggle is far from over for Moscow.

There's a lot of strange stories and shit isn't adding up on both sides.

Are they trying to create a cauldron or what in the Donbas? If they are, speed it up. If they aren't, what's their problem?

I don't believe the Ukies themselves are fighting very hard. My guess is that they're in static positions due to low morale and shitty training, and it's mostly "Contractors" with perhaps a handful of trained AFU specials are doing hit and runs against the Russians.

Depends on unit but on average they are fighting hard. Proof - Russians have been ejected from swaths of territories and have scaled back their appetites considerably.

A more interesting question is why Putin attacked at exactly right moment when it was starting to be clear that covid!!! panic was manufactured and shutdowns/vaccines had killed more than covid itself. War drowned out covid in media

Yep, Russian military was sent it without air cover, stupidly generals didn't think Ukraine would fight back. They did, blew up a lot of Russian tanks, and Russia had to pull back into territories they can provide air cover in and line support.

This is just an opinion, but I think it's pure coincidence. Covid wasn't ending, Biden was still wearing a mask and media was still telling people to mask up. I remember that day when the war begun, suddenly Biden showed up without a mask and everyone noticed. Our faggot media had to pivot suddenly to worry about war and not covid. Because their covid plans of great reset have been thrown into chaos by a war. A war they did push Russia and Ukraine into. World is fucked up man.

It is possible but perhaps somewhat unlikely. Very few things happen by chance. "They" aka globalists needed something that would take attention of impressionable masses of covid disaster, and they got it. Biden got someone to blame for inflation and gas prices (even though most of increase happened before Russian attack). I wonder if Vlad and Joe are on the same team at expense of Americans, Russians, and Ukrainians.

White House officials are leaking about America’s mounting economic crises, admitting privately that Democrat President Joe Biden’s sanctions against Russia are “exacerbating inflation and worsening food insecurity.”

Biden admin insiders are reportedly raising concerns the sanctions on Russia are causing massive “collateral damage” to the American and the world economy.

Worryingly, the White House officials say Biden’s miscalculation and bungled rollout of the sanctions may lead to a worldwide famine that will destabilize the entire world.

Saagar Enjeti, co-Host of “Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar,” revealed the growing panic from within Biden’s team.

“White House officials privately admit ‘the collateral damage’ from Russia sanctions ‘has been wider than expected’,” Enjeti said.

How would you feel about this plan: The US could utilize their best special forces to deploy a covert team into Moscow. Similar to what we did with other terrorist in previous years.
That special force team would take out Putin, some of the generals and maybe some oligarchs.

We would then plant US trained leaders in Moscow so that Moscow becomes controllable for the US. The way i think about this is Russia could become a special exporter of goods to the US at special conditions (reduced pricing) as a pay-back for the US efforts.

I hear you. Its wishful thinking. We gotta get over 2022 without widespread chaos first.

Germany to fire up coal plants as Russia turns down the gas

Germany to fire up coal plants

worse than that, this is the most dirty and inefficient type of coal, so-called lignite. Thank you greenies who shut down clean, carbon neutral, and cheap nuclear power! They must be Russian agents!

President Joe Biden's continued dismissal of domestic energy sources during his first year in office likely played right into the hands of Russian President Vladimir Putin, who has allegedly been providing covert active support to "green energy" activist groups around the globe for years in a bid to keep the U.S. — and, more importantly, Europe — addicted to Russian gas.

Former NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen warned in 2014 that Putin was funding certain "green" groups through far-left organizations as part of the Kremlin's "sophisticated information and disinformation operations."

These Russian subversives targeted hydraulic fracturing — fracking — which is used to extract oil and gas from otherwise difficult deposits. Putin condemned fracking in 2011, saying it was "associated with significant environmental risks, in particular the hazard of surface and underground water contamination with chemicals applied in the production process."

The Rosa Luxemburg Stiftung (RLS), based in Berlin, has advanced Putin's agenda on both sides of the Atlantic. It opposes fracking in the U.S. and in Europe and has endorsed the "Green New Deal." It also backed climate action and supported ending the Keystone XL pipeline.

But many RLS leaders previously worked for the dreaded East German secret police, the Stasi, or were leaders of the Cold War-era East German Communist Party. Stasi informants played a key role in promoting the climate of fear that kept East German society under control.

The supply of oil on the international markets has not really changed.

Russia is exporting about 1 million barrels per day less and Biden is pulling about 1 million barrels per day out of our Strategic Petroleum Reserves. Everything else has been about the same.

Biden is pulling the reserves because he thinks that lowers the price. There is no shortage of oil as Russia can easily export the extra million barrels per day if Biden stops reducing our Reserves. Basically he is reducing our Reserves when there are no supply problems.

Next week, Biden is going to go to Saudi Arabia and make his handlers look even more incompetent by sucking MBS's dick while asking for more oil to be produced. It will be hard for MBS to get the Alzheimer patient to understand that the world is fully supplied with oil. That the increase in oil prices has everything to do with Joe's fucked up policies.

Joe has lost all trust from the Saudis by kissing Khomeini's butt and allowing Iran to exceed the treaty's uranium enrichment quotas (there never has been any treaty on Iran's part based on Iran's actions) and allowing Tehran more access to funding. Joe may go off the deep end and threaten to seize Saudi's treasuries by allowing Congress to enact anti-OPEC legislation that overrides soveriegn immunity. If the US can freeze Russia's treasuries and seize Russian billionaire's assets, we can do the same to Saudi's assets. Besides there needs to be reparations for global warming--- right?

MBS will pat Joe's head and give like $100 million to Hunter's charity (same as he did for Ivanka) and call it a day.

Yep, they are getting shitload of dollars and nothing to spend them on: they need aircraft parts, car parts, chips, night vision, engines, compressors, etc. and can't buy shit. So basically they are getting all that dough for safekeeping until the time to pay reparations comes.
180   Eric Holder   2022 Jun 22, 4:10pm  

And to these who cheer the Rubble going up against dollar: they do it because very shmart Russian population has always used exchange rate as a measure of the economy's health. It kinda worked when the Rubble was allowed to float free. But does it work now with all the restrictions in place? Think about it: strong Rubble kills the exporters. Why? Easy: if you are a producer of some gadget and used to get 70 Rubbles for every dollar you get in, now you're getting only 53. Meaning you have less money to pay to your workers and suppliers while even OFFICIAL inflation rate for the year is at 17%. In the past when inflation would rise the Rubble would tank against the dollar so you would be able to keep up with rising costs, but not this time, because capital controls and import restrictions have pushed it up in the opposite direction. It's a great facade with nothig but rotting shit behind it.

This is why exporter countries like Japan and China working hard to keep their currencies low, not letting them go up to the natural balance, let alone jacking them up to artifical hights.

Also if you used USD as an inflation hedge (which was the SOP in ex-USSR countries for the last 30 years) you hedge is now broken: the inflation is 17% AND USD you hold cost LESS in Rubbles, i.e. you're double fucked.

NEW DELHI, June 29 (Reuters) - India's biggest cement producer, UltraTech Cement (ULTC.NS), is importing a cargo of Russian coal and paying using Chinese yuan, according to an Indian customs document reviewed by Reuters, a rare payment method that traders say could become more common.

UltraTech is bringing in 157,000 tonnes of coal from Russian producer SUEK that loaded on the bulk carrier MV Mangas from the Russian Far East port of Vanino, the document showed. It cites an invoice dated June 5 that values the cargo at 172,652,900 yuan ($25.81 million).
