Russia’s economy expands despite sanctions – World Bank.
The growth rate of the Russian economy increased last year, while inflation remained low, the World Bank said in its 2019 World Economic Outlook. “Although economic sanctions tightened, Russia experienced relatively low and stable inflation and increased oil production. As a result of robust domestic activity, the Russian economy expanded at a 1.6 percent pace in the year just ended,” said the report.
The World Bank pointed out that Russia and other oil exporters “maintained steady growth in 2018, supported by a rise in oil prices.”
In Russia, “growth has been resilient, supported by private consumption and exports,” the bank said, projecting a short-term slowdown this year to 1.5 percent. In October, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) raised its forecast for Russia’s GDP growth in 2019 to 1.8 percent. IMF chief economist Maurice Obstfeld said that the positive impact of rising world oil prices on the Russian economy would outweigh the negative effect of Washington’s sanctions.

"From Russia with wheat: Exports by global grain superpower soar 80%" The world’s top exporter of grain, Russia, has increased sales of its wheat abroad by 80.2 percent from January to July 2018 compared to the same period of 2017. Statistics from the Federal Customs Service showed that in July the country shipped 3.8 million tons of wheat and meslin (a mixture of wheat and rye), up by almost 78 percent from the previous month. The value of exports rose by 74 percent.
According to the customs service, imports of wheat and meslin increased by 36.7 percent through July – worth $32.2 million. Overall, grain imports amounted to $227.8 million in the seven months of this year, down by 7.8 percent from 2017.

Russia has managed to capture more than half of the world wheat market in recent years, becoming the world’s biggest exporter of grain, thanks to bumper harvests and attractive pricing. In 2016, the country became the world leader in wheat exports. Since the early 2000s, its share of the world wheat market has quadrupled rt.com/business/437886-russian-wheat-exports-increase/

1.8 percent growth is not good for the third world. Russia should easily be seeing 6-7% quarters. If god is blessing Russia, it's not clear what with.
Camden Hall
What was the growth in your evil shithole ?

literally every presidential candidate has to win jewish support, you stupid nigger. Trump at least makes them cringe.

Huge, like 3.5% for Q3 alone. In other words, we added an entire Russia to our economy, 1.5 trillion in just 2 quarters.

>the International Monetary Fund (IMF) >IMF chief economist Maurice Obstfeld Fuck those guys.
Oh yes, valuable currency is just so great in a globalized economy. Sure has helped Greece and Italy since they've joined the Eurozone.
You'd have to be blind to not see the entire ZOG machine recoil, go check out a set of headlines from US news, but whatever i can already tell you're going to be one of the autists on the board that think it was possible for the US to vote in someone that was going to hoist the russian economy, nuke israel and restore the Libyan barrier to stop the blackening of Europe.

I'm glad that Russia is getting better. As an electrical engineer I am also happy that Russia is expanding their electronics industry and starts to compere against Intel, AMD, ARM, IBM, Apple, Samsung, Microsoft, etc. I might actually go back.
Yes, factories keep Moscow warm during the winter and and the smoke creates nice shades during the summer. Heavy industry is slowly migrating away from the center and more towards the edge of the city.
Russia needs autarky, or at least to strive for it.

Most stupid post ever on Jow Forums Same could be said about most economies. Use your brain next time you post, assuming you have any brain, you must be homo turd Navalny's fudge packer ass boy.
>their injection of money for gas is literally the only thing keeping our infrastructure stable and getting new shit build That's called export user, and it is not thanks to the Chinese but duo to Russian engineers that have independently developed technology for extracting and refining oil. I'm not sure but the Chinese don't own any oil companies in Russia at all. Because of the trade wars with the USA, China is looking to buy oil from Russia. Don't thank the Chinese. If china did not subsidized their own steel and aluminum exports (which is a practice that is seen as illegal world wide) to kill off foreign competitors then Russia might have had their own metallurgy economy going and produce metals domestically instead of importing it from China. Don't fall for the "China is great" meme.
Aaron Rogers
Russia is about to invest in Bitcoin bigly. Screenshot this.
you are retarded, we are a union in which you are perfectly right that a euro pricing in elephants is a burden for weaker economies. I just said it can only go upwards from here. You mutts are too retarded to understand a strong dollar is good for you. >zog this guy is a con as the rest you retard. media isn't your enemy, they simply refuse to watch him close unlike you. Just because media did suck Obamas dick a few times too often doesn't mean they are supposed to do it again. Right now you btfo yourselves, why that is I don't know, but you literally pissed at all allies while sucking SA and even NK dick. I unironically don't know what to think of america no more, it's a mess, toxic. and you are dragging us down with you, sad!
Second stupid post on Jow Forums by Navalny's ass boy fagg.

They are too late for bitcoin user. The best they can do is create their own blockchain currency, give themselves the majority of the funds by giving themselves a head start in the mining and acknowledge it as a valid currency for trade, commerce and taxes. If they do that, then they can have an uncompromised-to-Russia cryptocurrency. Because it will be the first cryptocurrency to be acknowledged by a government it will blow everything else out of the water and burn all other parties that have been hoarding bitcoin and such.
Bitcoin is old and bloated, better, more efficient cryptocurrency already exist. It won't be Bitcoin.

Both Russia and America are run by oligarchs. This jewing will never end unless all the oligarchs are jailed.

>It's called they invested 200 billion dollars to build a pipeline before they even got a single lick of oil you stupid fuck Yhea, but that money isn't used to repair buildings or infrastructure. That is for just the pipe and a one time deal. Gazprom also payed impart for that pipeline itself. Gazprom took out a large loan and sold around 14% of its shares to China for that pipeline. Stop licking Chinese ass.

His Jew friend just built a bridge to Ukraine where he stole billion of dollars from the russian taxpayers.

I really wish the best for Russia and I’m happy you guys are doing better (assuming all these statistics are true). I just hope you guys stop letting in all those Muslims into European Russia

Getting a 1.8 percent growth while the EU and the USA are sanctioning you is quite a feat tho.
Russia will be on the right side of history. USA and EU eternally BTFO.
doesn't sound like a valid reason here is a simple test, if the ukranians speak russian they are russian if they speak something else maybe not...so...what language do they speak?

>Crimea willingly reunited back with Russia after decades of being part of fictional country called Ukraine. Globalists got buthurt. YUP !!! 100% TRUE.
“CRIMEA” !!! For those of you who are sincerely interested learning both sides of the story about CRIMEA and RUSSIA and PUTIN here is a very interesting interview with PUTIN. (click on CC in YouTube to turn On English subtitles) Yes this is a long interview, so only serious ‘students' of political science will watch thIs. ENJOY...VERY WELL PRODUCED DOCUMENTARY
"Crimea.The Way Home. Documentary by Andrey Kondrashev" The Film was made to keep in history every significant episode that happened in Crimea in Spring 2014. It took 8 months to finish the film and enveloped Simferopol and Kerch, Yalta and Bakhchisaray; Feodosia, Djankov, Alushta and a dozen settlements of Crimea. youtube.com/watch?v=c8nMhCMphYU
>run by oligarchs Show me a first world country where this is not the case. Oligarchs are the modern day equivalent of lords. They don't own castles, soldiers or serfs anymore. They own mansions, private security and pay wages for people to wrok in their factories and fields. You will always have inequality user. The only way to fight the Oligarchs is to create a middle-class that is able to compete with Oligarchs by coming together and creating better alternatives to what the Oligarchs are capable of providing, like a company with a better products that pays a higher wage. Russia is getting better each year.

That’s cool. Idc if you guys want Europe. Plz don’t interrupt our upcoming civil war :)

Evidence mounts for shale slowdown. There is a growing pile of evidence pointing to a slowdown in the US shale industry, as low prices take their toll. The rate of hydraulic fracturing began to decline in the last four months of 2018, a sign that US shale activity began to slow even before the plunge in oil prices. According to Rystad Energy, the average number of fracking jobs declined to 44 per day in November 2018, down from an average of between 48 and 50 for the five-month period between April and August 2018.
“After reaching a peak in May/June, fracking activity in the Permian Basin has gradually decelerated throughout the second half of 2018,” Rystad Energy senior analyst Lai Lou said in a statement.

Eh, sage. Russia will thrive only after Putin and the elite dies as they are the one who are going to mark the end of the soviet era. USSR didn't die, it just got weakened before the final fall. If you look deeper though, you ll see that we most shit here in Russia is pretty much soviet(education, elite, totalitarism, highly-restricted markets, gov-t regime in general). This...uh...economic growth(is this even real?) Is last drops of power of the soviet era before the dawn.
I dont even know desu. We are going to encounter an new Era of Russian history and culture, but at the same time I want to migrate to Europe, so I wont suffer a bit from the former regime, kinda confused
