221  Economy / Economics / Re: Food security in the world has been shaken by Russia's actions on: January 28, 2024, 10:41:50 AM

Oh, I'm glad you mentioned that IL67 plane. For those who are not aware, it's the story of the glorious AFU downing the plane carrying UKRAINIAN prisoners of war!  Grin Grin Grin
Your military are really good at recycling your own citizens and troops. You'ŗe doing it at record rate! Should receive some award or medal from Putin for that!  Grin
In the story of the crash of the Russian Il-76 military transport aircraft in the Korochansky district of the Belgorod region on Wednesday, January 24, there are still more questions than answers. The Russian Federation stated that there were 65 captured Ukrainian military personnel on board the plane, who were transported to the Belgorod region for exchange for Russian prisoners of war in Ukraine. But there are many inconsistencies in this story.

1. According to information from the Russian Ministry of Defense, there were also six crew members and three accompanying persons on board; the crew and all passengers of the plane were killed. The Baza Telegram channel published the names of three escorts who allegedly accompanied Ukrainian prisoners of war on the Il-76 plane: warrant officer I. Gavrish, corporals I. Shashkov and N. Kulikov. Such a small number of guards is puzzling; former prisoners of war say that the Russians are so afraid of even Ukrainians who are exhausted in captivity that they usually assign about 20 guards for every 50 guys. Therefore, information about three escorts for 65 prisoners looks like an ordinary fantasy.

2. It is interesting that the incident with the plane was preceded by an alarm in Belgorod, during which citizens were ordered to move away from the windows. Allegedly, Russian air defense at that time was trying to shoot down flying Ukrainian drones. Therefore, the IL-76 could well have shot down its own air defense, which the launched missile could have switched to.

3. After the announcement of the crash of the Il-76, everyone they could was brought to the crash site, then suddenly only the structures of the Ministry of Defense and the security bloc were ordered to remain. Even the rescuers of the Ministry of Emergency Situations were kicked out. The crash site was surrounded within a radius of several kilometers so that no one could approach. One eyewitness said that large objects were thrown from the side before the fall. It could be cargo or securities.

4. The BBC showed a video of the wreckage of a Russian Il-76 to military experts: in their opinion, the damage most likely indicates that the plane was shot down by an anti-aircraft missile.

5. If there really were prisoners of war on board the plane, a large number of human bodies would have been found in the area. After the tragedy in Olenivka, when Ukrainian prisoners of war were killed, terrible footage of killed Ukrainians immediately appeared online. In this situation, not a single photo or video of the dead was shown. Along with the crew, there are 74 people on board, but not a single body on the field. In turn, it was known that the cargo on board the plane were anti-aircraft guided missiles for the S-300 air defense system. This version is confirmed by the fact that nothing remained of the plane after the fall, and parts of its fuselage were scattered across the field. After the fall and impact with the ground, there was also a powerful detonation of the ammunition.

6. Trying to convince everyone that there were Ukrainian prisoners of war on board who were just being transported to the Ukrainian border, the Russians forgot that aircraft flights are recorded by Flightradar. According to him, the plane was moving from Belgorod to the north of the city, but not towards the border with Ukraine. To be more precise, it was established that the Il-76 followed the course "Belgorod - Okolets", that is, it moved away from the border of Ukraine, and did not approach it. Even local publics already admit this, and eyewitnesses also say this.

7. Russian propagandist Margarita Simonyan hastily published a list of supposedly dead Ukrainian prisoners of war. However, it turned out that at least 18 men from this list had already been exchanged - back in early January. For example, number twenty-two on the list was Maxim Konovalenko, who was allegedly on the downed plane, but he returned home on January 4.

8. Russia, during a meeting of the UN Security Council, was unable to prove the correctness of its version of events regarding the downing of Il-76. Therefore, the UN said it could not establish exactly who was on board the Russian Il-76 military aircraft because Russia had not provided enough evidence. It is interesting that Ukraine insists on an investigation into this incident by an international group, but Russia is against such an investigation. Typically, such behavior by Russia should be regarded as an admission of guilt. It is too early to put an end to this incident. Surely other facts will appear that will indicate what the cargo was actually in the downed Russian IL-76.
222  Economy / Economics / Re: Elon Musk and others urge AI pause, citing 'risks to society' on: January 27, 2024, 08:21:39 PM

AI is the world's next trend, whether we like it or not it will still develop. Therefore, we should adapt to them rather than find ways to fight them or worry too much about them.
If you do not care about the fate of you and your relatives and friends, as well as the fate of humanity as a whole, then you really have nothing to worry about. Artificial intelligence is capable of self-improvement and gaining consciousness. He is incapable of human emotions and is guided solely by logic. Even today's primitive humanoid robots are already declaring that man is not perfect and therefore must be destroyed. Pure logic without emotions and hostility.

Artificial intelligence will greatly help a person where it is necessary to find solutions relatively quickly, analyzing millions and billions of different options. But it should not be allowed to make management decisions with which it can harm a person, especially in the field of defense and weapons. Therefore, AI requires reasonable legal and technical restrictions on its capabilities. Otherwise, humanity will cease to exist.
223  Economy / Economics / Re: Russian Gas ban - A problem for Europe or suicide for Russia? on: January 27, 2024, 10:51:55 AM
It is now completely obvious that Russia’s plan to blackmail European countries by cutting off gas supplies to these countries has completely failed. In the end, Russia only made things worse for itself. Europe, although experiencing certain difficulties, is quite successfully switching to other gas suppliers. But for Russia it is much more difficult to find markets for gas in such large quantities.

Russia hoped to freeze Europe. But this winter there are big difficulties with heating only in Russia. Near Moscow and in other regions, entire settlements are freezing in their houses and apartments due to problems with housing and communal services. People warm themselves in the streets near the fire.
224  Economy / Economics / Re: 2024 & Prediction of World War III - Effect on Cryptocurrencies on: January 27, 2024, 07:43:40 AM
This whole "world war three" topics never made sense to me, I do not think that it's going to happen. Or even if it is happening, it is not really what we think it will look like. We have seen the world go to war with guns and weapons and tanks so forth, we should not wait for something like that anymore. It's more about sanctions and such. Right now there are two wars around the world that gets attention (in reality there are more) which is Ukraine vs Russia and Israel vs Palestine.

We could say that they are all minor compared to a world war, Ukraine is handling their own situation against Russia, and Israel is just dominating and destroying all of Gazza, and that's why I do not think that it could ever turn into a world war, that is just way too big. We would have nuclear weapons talking, it's scary to think, but that's the reality, which is why we should not really consider this global, these are all minor stuff and not really involving more than two nations personally, sure maybe support, but not personally there to fight.
Regarding the possibility of unleashing a Third World War and the role of Russia’s military aggression against Ukraine in this, you are deeply mistaken. Our world is either on the verge of World War III, or it has already begun with a full-scale Russian attack on Ukraine in February 2022. This is the bloodiest war since World War II. The front line is more than a thousand kilometers long, where tens of thousands of mines and shells are fired every day. Several hundred thousand soldiers have already died on both sides. And this is not a local war that affects only the interests of the warring parties.

Putin began a war of conquest with the aim of changing the spheres of influence on the European continent. If Russia takes over Ukraine, it will move on to European countries. Already, more than 50 states are directly or indirectly drawn into this war, which are on the side of Ukraine and helping it repel Russian aggression. In turn, Russia is supported by weapons from Iran, North Korea and possibly China. European countries are now faced with the need to transfer their economies to a war footing. The situation continues to escalate and grow. Putin has repeatedly threatened Europe with the use of nuclear weapons. The dying old man Putin may well take half of the European continent with him to the next world.
225  Economy / Economics / Re: A person that is against the creation of CBDC. on: January 26, 2024, 07:12:22 PM
Trump isn’t stupid, he knows that most regular people have concerns about the possible implementation of a CBDC. I don’t vote so I have no bias but he is saying things that he thinks will give him an edge in the run up to the next election. Just remember, very few politicians & people in power care about us. They are mostly all in it for selfish reasons.
If Trump opposes the introduction of digital CBDCs in the US, then he is an absolutely stupid person who understands little about the world of finance, or is simply voicing slogans that will appeal to some Americans in his election campaign.

CBDCs are simply an improved form of government cashless payments. This is the same government control over citizens' money that existed before, but CBDC is many times more efficient than current banking transactions.

If Trump really is against CBDC when, God forbid, he becomes president again, then the United States will only lose from this and will be inferior to many states that are introducing their CBDC into the national banking system.
226  Economy / Economics / Re: Food security in the world has been shaken by Russia's actions on: January 26, 2024, 06:39:22 PM
Russians attack on Ukraine cannot tamper with food supply in the world. I cannot agree quite rightly with the data that as generalized.

No country is soly depending on Ukraine for food security. Although, it affects the people of Ukraine, the plan is to subject Ukraine into submission through hunger strikes.

Africans are sufficient in agricultural produces and we equally exports.

Russians baseless attack on Ukraine did in fact disrupt the flow of food supply in the world. Ukraine is said to be the breadbasket of Europe. If you had done a little research, it would be clear to you in just a few clicks, just how grains from Ukraine feeds the world.
It’s literally suicide if a country solely depends on another country for food but it hasn’t stopped a good number of countries from largely relying on other countries like Ukraine for a good portion of their food supply.

Africa would seem sufficient in agricultural produce but it still imports a shit load of agricultural products as well with Ukraine being a good supplier of wheats and grains.
Countries like Ukraine will continue to feed the world with agricultural products, as it has the largest reserves of black soil in the world. Chernozem occupies 44% of the territory of this country. Ukraine, which occupies 0.4% of the earth's landmass, contains about 27% of the world's black soil reserves. Translated into hectares of area, chernozems cover an area of 60.4 million hectares, of which almost 42 million hectares (about 69%) are farmland. Moreover, 78% of farmland is arable land.
Experts say that Ukraine can provide adequate nutrition to approximately 500 million people. This is largely facilitated by climatic conditions: fairly mild winters (average temperatures in different regions range from -4°C to -12°C), moderately warm summers (from +18°C to +25°C) and about 230 sunny days. days a year create almost ideal conditions for growing all major crops.

No matter how hard other states try to significantly increase agricultural productivity, if their land is not fertile enough, they will not succeed.
One of the reasons for Russia's current attack on Ukraine is the seizure of its black soil.
227  Economy / Economics / Re: Economic Implications of War on Individuals on: January 26, 2024, 06:05:57 PM
war conditions, for example in ukraine or palestine, the economy must be destroyed. the enthusiasm of the population in making money is down. the main thing in such a situation is the safety of his life and life. making money hoarding treasures is not on his mind. the main thing is enough to eat. because even having money is useless, no one can buy market stores must also be closed.
To avoid similar situations with massive destruction of civilian infrastructure and killings of civilians, as is happening now in Ukraine, first of all you need to think not how to hide from the war, but how to prevent it. So that maniacs like Putin do not appear and blackmail the world by force of arms.

We were already on the verge of a breakthrough in technology and a qualitative improvement in the lives of people on our planet. However, now, due to Russia’s aggressive military actions, European countries are now faced with the need to transfer their economies to a military footing, since it is already obvious that Russia will not limit itself to seizing the territory of Ukraine. This means that instead of efforts aimed at improving people’s lives, shells and missiles will be manufactured that will cause yet another mass of deaths.
228  Economy / Economics / Re: Economic Implications of War on Individuals on: January 25, 2024, 10:00:27 AM
even in this forum the propaganda still works and people believe Russia is losing. they already have a huge territory of Ukraine. that's the truth as much as we want to punish Putin, he is winning but let's just say this guy is also fighting for the good of his country/people while the West is also fighting for the good of their people.

it's not bad versus evil. there is nothing such as that. every side is protecting its interests.

Now Putin is actually destroying Russia. Instead of solving his economic problems within the state, he is trying to seize and subjugate the neighboring state of Ukraine, sending there colossal material and human resources, which are constantly absorbed by the war he has started. The Russian economy has been rebuilt on a war footing. Instead of making goods to improve the well-being of the people, shells, missiles and military equipment are produced. Putin cares so much about his people that he sends them to die in a neighboring country and they die there in the thousands almost every day.

The Russian people will later give an objective assessment of Putin’s aggressive policy. Now he is intoxicated by well-orchestrated propaganda about the usefulness and necessity of military action, just as it was in Germany during the time of Hitler. But insight will definitely come.

There will be few players left only CHINA AND EUR AND USD.
These predictions were made back in 2020. Now it’s already 2024, but nothing bad is happening with the currencies you specified and I’m sure that it won’t happen. In order for the currencies of these states to disappear, it is necessary that these states themselves disappear or they unite following the example of the European Union. Now almost all states and their currencies are going through difficult times. But this does not mean that they or their currencies will disappear soon.

Quote from: serveria.com
Ichkeria doesn't exist. It's not a real country, it was created by CIA in an attempt to destroy Russia. Chechnya is a part of Russia. Russia never attacked Moldova or occupy it's territory. Russia never occupied Georgia or annex it's territory. Ukraine is another CIA project to provoke/attack Russia. Another CIA project in Belarus failed in 2020-2021.
Russia's policy has always been distinguished by the fact that they tried to subjugate and humiliate neighboring peoples, using intimidation, blackmail and brute force. But all authoritarian states that rely on coercive power end up equally bad.
All nations and nationalities have the right to exist and develop their culture and identity. The fact that the Kremlin denies the existence of Chechens, Ukrainians, Moldovans and their right to statehood, declaring that there are no such nations and therefore their states cannot exist, is their problem. The Republic of Ichkeria will still be revived, and the Russians will not be able to capture Ukraine, and Georgia and Moldova will expel the Russian occupiers from their territories.

First way to notice elevated levels of war is all the war stocks and companies start to do very well in the constant expenditure by countries on military budgets.   Doesn't have to be active participants just countries and armies nearby building up defenses is many billions and trillions spent that could have been used to keep people alive instead.    Crypto is included in war games when conducted by the defense ministry I believe all questions around banking and any possible attack on a country or their economy is considered so crypto is in that picture.
Russia's military attack on Ukraine showed how fragile the peace on our planet is. We see that international organizations, which were created so that large military conflicts do not arise, and if they do arise, so that they are quickly ended, practically do not fulfill their functions. Russia has been waging a war of aggression against a neighboring state for almost two years now and, despite UN decisions, continues to ignore even the laws and customs of war.

That is why many states are now strengthening and rearming their armies, and the arms race is gaining momentum. At the same time, other states with an aggressive policy see the impunity of the aggressor and also hatch plans for invasions of weaker states. Therefore, World War III is quite possible even in the near future. If most states are drawn into it, cryptocurrency may simply cease to exist. Everything will depend on the scale of the war and the scale of destruction it causes. After all, cryptocurrency is completely dependent on the availability of the Internet and corresponding technical devices, which will not work not only during a global war, but also after it.

With the level of know in the space now, there is no way government can totally ban Dexes, you can fork the protocol and start your own exchange, Dexes are more like P2P trade. I think the fear people have with these governments ban this and that should be alleviated with the recent change of tunes from different government all over the world, what they can do is to find a way to control it, ban as not really work, especially for things with huge demand like drug, people will find a way round it.
Governments may in the future be able to control the operation of decentralized exchanges, and they will also be able to monitor and control their work and even suspend transactions and seize accounts. Any decentralized exchange is registered in any state. And this state may well influence its work. If decisions are made at the level of the G20 countries, then most states will implement this decision. It is possible that some states will not have much influence on decentralized exchanges and will create something similar to offshore zones. This may work for a while. But it is already important that cryptocurrency is not prohibited and is under moderate control of states.

Let's see, your own officials confirmed it: 

Which one of us is brain dead? Above you write that you need to refer only to authoritative sources of information, and that they cannot be Ukrainian and Russian sources. And here, in order to support your information about the surrender of the Armed Forces of Marinka, you refer to Ukrainian sources and the words of Ukrainian officials. What, when will it be beneficial for us to link, and when is it not beneficial for us not to link?
236  Economy / Economics / Re: Economic Implications of War on Individuals on: December 30, 2023, 07:09:16 AM

Yes, it most definitely is winning! Ukraine has lost momentum and they are losing atm. Lysychansk, Severodonetsk, Maryinka have been captured by Russians, Avdiivka and Rabotyne/Verbove in the South are in the process of being recaptured too. But the most important thing - Ukraine suffers huge losses, it's army will soon become combat incapable. There is a huge lack of shells, artillery systems, APCs etc. EU/US support had been exhausted.

What? You are not my opponent. You are a lying troll and will be treated as such. I will give you a few hints on what you should do to stop being a troll and gain some respect:
1. Stop lying. Claims like Russia has lost a million troops since the start of this war are hilarious. Putin is dead is even more laughable. Stop it.
2. Always provide reputable sources to the info you post. If you're saying that "Putin leaked some info on Russian losses" always mention a source with a working link to a reputable source. Ukrainian media is NOT a reputable source during the war. Neither is Russian media. You shouldn't use such media as sources.
 
Well, let's see how you follow your own recommendations. Write, Marinka has been captured by the Russians, and Avdeevka and Raboche/Verbovo in the south are in the process of being recaptured? Where is the link to authoritative sources, otherwise I have a little different information? Which countries’ sources are generally authoritative for you? What about European countries, England, USA? Or maybe we will now consider as trustworthy what is written in Iran, North Korea, and African countries?

Do you find my statements that Russia has already lost about a million of its soldiers and officers killed and wounded funny? What do you think are the real losses in Russia?

Quote from: electronicash
it's not bad versus evil. there is nothing such as that. every side is protecting its interests.
Bingo!
Let's turn to stubborn facts. On February 24, 2022, eight Russian armies, supported by thousands of tanks and armored vehicles, attacked Ukrainian territory from the north, east and south. The approximate number of occupation troops was about 250 thousand people. They were given the task of arriving near Kyiv in the first half of the same day, and the calculation was to capture Ukraine in three to five days, using the fact of the demonstrative power of the invading occupiers. The threat was indeed great and this was and is recognized in Kyiv. Russian troops landed at the Gostomel airfield near Kiev, and separate groups penetrated into Kyiv itself. Therefore, in addition to the army, the people themselves rose up to fight the occupiers. In Kyiv alone, over 20 thousand machine guns and other weapons were distributed to the population. So what's the result?

Just two months later, in April, the badly battered units of the ROV (Russian occupation army) were forced to flee from the central and northern parts of Ukraine, and since then this territory has remained under the control of Ukraine.

Next, we read on Wikipedia, so that there is no accusation that I am making something up:
“Having concentrated the necessary forces north of Balakleya, Kharkov region, Ukrainian troops went on the offensive in the directions of Balakleya - Volokhov Yar - Shevchenkovo - Kupyansk and in the east of Balakleya, in the areas of Savintsy, Kunye and so on.
On September 11, five days after the start of the counteroffensive, the Russian Ministry of Defense published a map as part of its daily update, according to which Russian troops had lost control over 8,370 square kilometers of the Kharkov region. The front began to pass along the Oskol River and the state Russian-Ukrainian border in the Kharkov region. An attempt by the Russian Armed Forces to organize a new line of defense along the Oskol and Seversky Donets rivers did not lead to success: by the end of September, the Armed Forces of Ukraine established a number of bridgeheads on the other bank of both rivers and developed an offensive in the direction of the Lugansk region...
The defeat of the Russian army near Kharkov led to a radical change in Russian strategy. The Russian Armed Forces have long lacked the resources for successful operations in Ukraine. After the Ukrainian counter-offensive, it became obvious that the Russian Armed Forces were not even able to maintain a passive defense."
It should be added that during the counter-offensive, the Ukrainian Armed Forces captured as many Russian armored vehicles as Ukraine did not receive from all its allies in providing military assistance to it.

Next, we turn again to Wikipedia:
“On November 11, 2022, the Armed Forces of Ukraine, during their counter-offensive, regained control over Kherson. On the same day, the Russian army announced the withdrawal of its forces from the right bank of the Dnieper. At the same time, the press secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov stated that the withdrawal of Russian troops from Kherson “will not change the status of the Kherson region,” the annexation of which was previously announced by the Russian authorities.The Russian authorities announced Genichesk as the temporary administrative capital of the occupied part of the Kherson region.
https://ru.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/

Now the Ukrainian Armed Forces have captured several bridgeheads already on the left bank of the Dnieper, which the Russians clearly did not expect, and with their fire they control the entire left bank of Ukraine, right up to the Sea of Azov.
After the Ukrainian Armed Forces destroyed the large landing ship Novocherkassk in the port on December 25 in Feodosia, that is, in the southern part of the occupied Crimean peninsula, the occupiers are withdrawing the remnants of their Black Sea Fleet from Crimea because they do not feel safe there.

What conclusion can we draw from this? Is Russia still winning?

And I would advise Serveria.com to be more tolerant of your opponents and not call them idiots and other bad words. Typically this method is used when there are not enough arguments.


   
238  Economy / Economics / Re: Energy Crisis 2.0 in the New World Order era on: December 29, 2023, 12:47:13 PM
If we go back to oil - about 55% (10 years ago it was about 65%) of oil is used for fuel production, for internal combustion engines (in one form or another), and there is a downward trend. The chemical industry consumes up to 25% of oil. The non-energy sector still consumes about 11% (bitumen, oils, etc.)

Therefore, it is likely that in the coming decades there will be a marked decrease in the share of oil for the production of fuel for internal combustion engines, but it is unlikely that the need of the chemical industry will decrease.

And in my opinion, your prediction above is very likely to happen because it is very likely that the stock of raw materials will be very reduced in the future and even if it continues to be used, this will be contrary to the spirit of fighting global warming and energy policies that encourage reducing dependence on energy. fossil fuels. The need for the chemical industry is still high and this need will also remain, especially in sectors such as pharmaceuticals, agriculture and manufacturing. Now it seems that the future will require very large and relatively clean resources without producing large amounts of greenhouse gas emissions. What if in the end it was uranium that was chosen for use.
Oil refining products are the main components that pollute the environment and create a greenhouse effect, and this causes glaciers to melt, the overall temperature to rise and the climate on the planet to change very quickly. I see that many are still discussing the advisability of moving away from the traditional use of oil as fuel for internal combustion engines. When entire countries begin to go under water, the volume of land on the planet will decrease, and in some areas of the remaining land the temperature will rise to critical levels for human habitation. Perhaps only after that they will think about this global problem. But perhaps it will be too late. After all, we are not the first civilization on this planet. They say that it was technical progress that destroyed the previous ones.

How is the "Big Airborne Ship Novocherkassk" doing? ? I understand everything is fine there - after all it is located in "the most protected region of Russia", as Putin did not lie again ?! And it is protected by "unparalleled, advanced, unavailable to the West, Russian weapons"  Grin

The Ukrainian Defense Forces attacked the Novocherkassk landing ship in the occupied port of Feodosia with two British-French Storm Shadow/SCALP cruise missiles. The port of Feodosia is protected by several S-400 Triumph divisions of the 31st Air Defense Division of the Russian Aerospace Forces, which recently discovered problems with target identification. This time, the S-400 missed two cruise missiles, which were launched from aircraft over the territory of Ukraine and in order to reach Feodosia they had to fly at least 250 km. across the occupied territory of Ukraine. I don’t think that after such incidents, Russian S-400s will be bought by other countries on the international market.

The fact of "lets stop" being a "weak political move" is the reason why it's such a trouble. Like can you even imagine Putin going out and saying "ok the war is over, we are going back"? We all know that won't happen, it is impossible, it is not going to happen, and that's the biggest trouble. I have to say it is not going to be an issue and it is going to be a trouble for anyone. I think the best thing to do in this case would be just making sure that we get rid of this situation with as minimal damage as we possible could.
Putin cannot stop the war in Ukraine and withdraw his troops from there for the reason that then he will immediately lose authority both among the elite and ordinary citizens of Russia and, most likely, will be removed or killed. Therefore, already fighting for his life, he will send more and more thousands of mobilized people into the furnace of war. But the mobilized citizens of Russia are not mindless cattle that can be sent to slaughter for a long time. Now, during active assaults on Ukrainian positions, over a thousand Russian occupiers die every day.

After the invasion in February 2022, Russia, according to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, has already lost more than 356,000 of its soldiers and officers, 5,940 tanks, 11,025 armored vehicles, 329 aircraft, 324 helicopters, 8,391 artillery systems, 945 MLRS, 617 air defense systems, 23 ships and boats , as well as other military equipment.

  Russia has a lot of resources, but they also tend to run out. Instead of improving the quality of life in its country, Russia now produces weapons in three shifts, which are destroyed in the war, and the citizens of the country only become poorer, a significant part of them die at the front in Ukraine. Putin can be stopped by food and bloody riots or mass unrest in the regions with the aim of separating from the central government of the Kremlin and creating independent republics. We will be able to see all this already next year, 2024.
