Putin cried with joy, wealth code**!The global economic landscape could be rewritten
Many people think that Russia will definitely have a bad economy if it has to deal with Western economic sanctions on the one hand, and on the other hand, it will have to fight a war. However, the latest economic data just released by Russia has taken the outside world by surprise.
According to the 2022 GDP data released by Russia, Russia's GDP reached 2$2 trillion, an increase of 19% compared to 2021, this growth rate is really shocking. And this wave of huge growth has also directly made Russia once again in the position of the world's eighth largest economy after eight years.
According to Russia**, after seeing Russia's economic data for 2022, Putin also cried with joy.
I have to say that the pressure on Putin this year is too great, the front line has not achieved much advantage, and there are even signs of **, if the economy is no longer good, then domestic pressure alone can defeat Putin. And now, the Russian economy has seen a headwind, which will undoubtedly give Putin more money to deal with doubts.
However, under the tough sanctions of the West, why does the Russian economy not collapse and go against growth?The main reasons must be these three points, first of all, the Federal Reserve continued to raise interest rates last year, which led to the depreciation of currencies in various countries, especially some countries dominated by the US dollar, which suffered from inflation last year and GDP fell sharply. Due to Russia's expulsion of the United States from the international settlement system, it announced that all oil and gas ** would be settled in its own currency at the beginning of last year, but it was not affected by the US interest rate hike, which is also one of the reasons for the sharp growth of Russia's GDP.
The second reason is that Russia is not only one of the world's largest exporters of agricultural products, but also one of the world's largest producers of resources and energy, and at the same time one of the world's largest exporters. Especially in the agricultural sector, last year Russia's grain production increased by 24%, and the output reached 1500 million tons, which cannot be digested domestically, so Russia can only choose to export. Thus, we can see that last year Russia exported more than 70 million tons of grain annually, an increase of 12% over previous years, and the export value exceeded $20 billion.
It has to be said that this is also the foresight of Putin, who fully learned the lessons of the collapse of the Soviet Union. At that time, although the Soviet Union was an industrial power, on a par with the United States, agriculture was not developed, and at the worst time, half of the grain needed to be imported, which was also an important factor in the collapse of the Soviet Union. Therefore, after Putin came to power, in order to avoid being seized by the Western world because of the grain problem, after years of efforts, Russia finally changed from a major grain importer to a major grain exporter.
Now, the main economic structures of Russia, which are agriculture, energy and military industry, are not a little familiar?Yes, this is the structure of the economy in wartime. Some time ago, it can be said that Russia really managed to go hungry, sleep a lot, and trap itself, while ** equipment is still completely self-sufficient. This is one of the key factors in the rapid development of the Russian domestic economy.
Of course, there is one more important factor, and that is war!
Putin is probably a little confused, it turns out that the war is the biggest"Wealth Code"。It is no wonder that the Americans have been at war for 242 years and have only 16 years without war, and the rest of the time they have been in war, or indirectly involved in war. Are Americans belligerent?Actually, no, the Americans know that war is the biggest wealth machine!Just like the United States is now supporting Ukraine, it seems that the United States is losing money when it contributes money and efforts, but only Americans know in their hearts that war is the biggest money printing machine.
At present, the West's attempts to suppress Russia through economic sanctions have not achieved much effect, but they have also allowed Russia to accumulate a lot of money, so Putin will be tougher next time. Zelens basically thought that with the support of the Americans, he would be able to counter Russia, but it seems that it is too early now.
