Russian Invasion of the U.S. [In Process]

[BADecker]

Looks like Russia is only getting started with its response to the sanctions. Imagine stepping across the border from Canada directly into Russia, or vice versa.


Putin adviser threatens to 'claim back' Alaska

One of Vladmir Putin's top advisers warned the U.S. that Russia may try to take back Alaska in response to U.S. sanctions for the invasion of Ukraine.

Speaker of the State Duma Vyacheslav Volodin warned that "when [U.S. lawmakers] attempt to appropriate our assets abroad, they should be aware that we also have something to claim back" in a Monday session of the lower house of the Russian Federal Assembly, according to the Washington Examiner. The United States purchased Alaska from Russia in 1867 for $7.2 million.

Volodin's threat comes after the United States has cooperated with NATO allies to enforce international sanctions against Russian oligarchs, Newsweek reported.

Russia's other attack of the US was just about the easiest thing that Putin ever did.

Before the invasion, it took something like 83 RUB to buy 1 USD.

Then the sanctions took affect, and the RUB went down to somewhere between 118 and 136 RUB per 1 USD.

Then Putin pulled some strings, and now it only takes about 55 RUB to buy a USD, a 7-year high.

Putin is an excellent player in the political arena True, in quotation marks
By artificially dropping the ruble to 55 derevynnkh per dollar, the miserable and cowardly under-fuhrer failed the budget item - budget revenues from the sale of hydrocarbons. I explain - the budget of the terrorist country is formed in pieces of paper with the name "ruble". And all income, including foreign exchange, is transformed into rubles. And if "yesterday" for 1 dollar they received as much as 120 rubles, today - only 55. Further, through simple operations, you can calculate how much the budget loses because of this Another "idiotic victory in Russian"

The other side is, if the ruble were 1:1 with the USD, think of how much more products Putin could buy from any country that would accept the ruble. If the ruble were 150:1 with the USD, think of how many more rubles Putin would have to spend for the same product.

So on a different scale, Putin has gained with what he did.

And when you think of how the sanctions against Russia have been causing Russia to sanction other countries, at least temporarily Russia is winning.

Do you think that this is due to the increase in demand for the ruble after Russia changed its policy of selling oil derivatives by stopping accepting foreign currencies and accepting only the ruble?

 This leads me to think of a terrifying scenario, which is that Russia admits that it will not sell oil and gas except in exchange for gold, silver or one of the precious metals. The high demand for these products will lead the global market to suffocating crises that may lead to disasters. Russia, with its allies, will be the biggest beneficiaries. Apparently, the Russian Bear can never be challenged when playing at home.

But the Central Bank of Ukraine did a good job - today it devalued the hryvnia by 25%. Before the Maidan, they gave 8 hryvnias per dollar, and now they give 36.6, I think this is a success. 

[amishmanish]

Fear of war is bigger than real war. US destroyed Iraq for its confounded fear of Weapons of mass destruction. Russia destroyed Ukraine due to perceived  NATO fears. Now we are a feared set of countries ready to go to war. But what after war. Will this earth survive, We have only one earth so keep it safe and livable.

Looks like you are sponsored by Western funds!!! How dare you say such a thing!? The great Putin himself, being the greatest economist, has already explained to everyone - the cheaper the ruble, the more rubles they will give for the dollar and the richer the country will be! And you don't believe him? I think there will be a knock on your door soon! They will definitely let you sit in jail for 10 years, for disbelief and distortion of the holy words of puten !!

Oh, again, haloperidol distorted reality?
Then sit down, hold your knees with your hands and listen
Since the beginning of a new phase of the terrorist war unleashed by Russia against Ukraine, the NBU made a decision that allowed preventing panic and real problems in the banking sector and in the foreign exchange market. For settlements with importers, a fixed hryvnia / dollar, hryvnia / euro exchange rate was accepted, it was in the range of UAH 30-32 per dollar / euro, and had slight fluctuations. The cash rate was free, it was formed on the basis of real supply and demand in the market. And yes, it was higher than the NBU rate for export-import operations.
Today, the real picture, with the monetary base, has changed, and it makes no sense to continue to keep, in fact, an artificial hryvnia exchange rate, this does not lead to good (in Russia, by the way, they will soon feel it )
This is how the situation looks, and not the nonsense that you habitually carry

And all this time I had been thinking that you were against Putin. Now it turns out that even you are calling him "the great Putin himself." I guess that means you are against him, like rubbing up against him.

What you need to do is really build him up the way you think he deserves. Call him Putin the Great. People will understand where you stand more easily that way.

That is, the official hryvnia exchange rate is artificially drawn and does not reflect objective reality? Have I correctly identified the essence of your lengthy explanations?

You rightly noticed! Of course, I consider him a complete bastard BUT! There are things for which I am even grateful to him !!! Yes Yes ! You heard right!
I am grateful to him for this:
- he unequivocally proved that Russia is a bastard terrorist country, and now no one has any doubts!
- he contributed as much as possible to the rallying of the people of Ukraine against the rashists and their henchmen! Until recently, Ukraine was very loyal to such geeks. Now it definitely won't!
- precisely because he built a mega-corrupt system of power, as well as 100% deceitful and thieves, Russia turned out to be a complete fake in reality, against the background of all its statements about greatness, advanced technologies and everything that is possible from the field of "unparalleled" . He proved - Russia is a dummy! Primitive, embittered, envious, but worthless dummy!
So you can tell him when you meet, well, of course, if he doesn’t die in his bunker soon

No Did you expect a different answer? As always, I took it, twisted it so that it corresponded to propaganda nonsense - and now "I defeated you!" It won't work, don't try, don't waste your time or mine...
In critical situations (for example, a country is under terrorist attack), some of the usual processes go into manual control mode. In this case, it was a TEMPORARY and FORCED measure. But after some stabilization, this measure was canceled, and the market continues to work as it should work. I agree, it's a bit difficult to talk about stabilization while the country is still under terrorist attack from the mad Nazi terrorists. But their convulsions won't last long

Such admiration you have for him. No wonder you copy him so much. I'm just glad you don't quite have the intelligence he has. You'd stumble around trying to make an even worse leader.

Painful fantasy and the habit of attributing to people what they didn’t say in order to “heroically talk to the opponent”, this is so in Russian! You can not try to prove it to me - I know, and I have no doubt what country you are from
