Russia’s $75 trillion in resources is why sanctions are impossible
After reading this article, I looked at Russian metrics, and they are indeed doing very well. Even better, most of Russia’s biggest industries are at least 51% state-owned. This sustains the profit motive, while letting the Russian government have the last say in corporate decisions, so that corporate greed does not commandeer and destroy Russia as it is destroying the USA.
The Russians have enough natural resources that they can low-ball most competitors. But when the US tells various nations that they cannot buy from Russia, and that they must pay more money, the USA looks like an a**hole.
