Maybe the figures would be higher if invaded. If you factor in cities flattened by bombing and shelling etc, people fleeing and whatnot.

[SasaS]

Russian economy is now about the same size as pre-invasion or slightly higher I think, Ukrainian I remember reading was down 40 to 50 percent at first and then it somewhat stabilized (probably it hit rock bottom anyway).

[TheHowieLama]

Not sure that comparing economies makes much sense.

That’s not a fair comparison though - one is a country at war, the other is a country who has been invaded and is hosting the war.

Russia's Ministry of Defence said the large landing ship Novocherkassk was struck by Ukrainian aircraft carrying guided missiles.

It's just a fundamental misunderstanding of how wartime effects a country that produces their own munitions vs one that does not.

 

Wartime has historically low unemployment when folks are making bombs n stuff.

The UK is an example as to what happens to war time "employment" rates when a war ends.

America too, basically dragged the place out of a depression and turned it into Edward Scissorhands country.

[SasaS]

Does anyone know, whatever happened to the land lease Ukraine was supposedly given by the US in 2022?

[TheHowieLama]

They have apparently found Navalny.

 

He is in Siberia.

[Gnasher]

 

Also true....

One has been punished by 12 rounds of sanctions and has low unemployment and high wage rises. 

 

Whilst the other has received 40 billion pounds worth of aid from the USA alone. Approximately 7milliion of its citizens have fled abroad yet still has over 20% unemployment. 

 

As many predicted the sanctions have come back hit us square in the face like a boomerang thrown by a drunk man in a pub carpark. They've also pushed China and the Rushkies closer together.

 

 

Meanwhile in the good ol US of A.

Western Europe is not doing much better. The blowing up of the Nord Stream pipeline was a reckless act of environmental and economic sabotage. 

 

 

On the plus side, the ski resorts in Western Ukraine are witnessing booming trade, as are world arms manufacturers as are the oil firms as are individuals such as Boris Johnson (all above board I'm sure)

He did indeed. He's quickly moved on to become the King of Ukraine. He's received many awards including the highest possible award the Ukrainians can give. So a bit more than 'a party' He's a hero over there. Although I'm sure he's doing it out of a genuine love for the people. 

[Curly]

What’s the answer here @Gnasher?

 

What needs to happen in your eyes to fix all these mistakes?

[SasaS]

Gnasher is just shitposting, that's all.

I really had no idea myself. Maybe I love Boris Johnson perhaps.

He's an opportunist cunt for sure.

Fuck knows. He posts a picture of Biden eating a Pot Noodle followed by a story about a Belarusian chess tournament and expects it to mean something.
