    Hey! Sorry for any issues with static sounds in this video. I believe I've managed to fix the issue with our recording hardware so hopefully, we don't have this problem again! There's a lot going on at the moment so sorry for any potential sloppiness when it comes to production and thanks for sticking with us! (p.s. we're currently upgrading studio space & hiring two new editors, so hopefully it will be looking better than ever very soon!) – Jack

    It’s funny how naive these people are… it’s been 7 months now, and it hasn’t “collapsed” still. In fact, the sanctions have backfired tremendously. Now Europe doesn’t have enough energy to last Regis cold winter, and energy prices are extremely high, and there isn’t any gas.
    We have all been waiting “swear any minute now they going to collapse” ever since the Crimean liberation, in 2014 😂😂

    So. 4 months later. Have you defeated Putin yet? No? Is Russia broke? No? Has Ukraine taken back any cities? Oh, Ukraine has lost several since this was published. Have sanctions forced Putin to the negotiating table? No? Europe's energy supply is secure, at least, right? Like how the leaders have continuously been boasting? No? But at least Ukraine's economy is stable. No? You mean to tell me that after months of cheerleading Ukraine and the West, Russia is still taking ground? Y'all suck at analysis.

    Interesting that if you sort comments by the most recent, they get swarmed by russian bots 🤖 pathetically trying to defend the russian economy,
    That is actually struggling with skyrocketing inflation, and the fact that putler can completely artificially manipulate the ruble, talks numbers about how small the russian economy is.
    And also would like to remember, that sanctions don’t work instantly, but it takes a few a time for GDP of the sanctioned country to feel it, for example even the Iranian economy still grown for a little bit after the sanctions before collapsing, (even if the sanctions had a minor part, most of it was because of the rampant corruption, and the revolutionary guards gorging up always larger chunks of the economy, the same situation as russia)
    In fact the russian economy is expected to recede more than 10% of gdp (not even the Great Recession was this bad) and that is just the first part, their economy will go from bad to worse, no one will buy oil or gas from them (and the russian economy is just that, they don’t produce anything else) the aviation and tech sector are dead, after threatening to seize the western assets in the country and not returning the rented planes, no one will invest or lend anything to them, and will have to endure generations of sanctions, so basically russia will live in worse than Venezuelan style poverty.

    Impact of sanctions on the Russian economy:

    1. Russian economy growth for the first quarter of this year amounted to 3.7%. At the same time, if we take industry separately, it grew by 5.9% over the quarter, and in March, compared to February, the growth in industry amounted to 9.9%.

    2. Unemployment remains at a historically low level and is not going to rise – 4.1%

    3. Suddenly, RF budget revenues increased by a third (30.4%), which caused a budget surplus of 2,417 billion rubles, which is 3.6 times more than last year's surplus. And that's for the quarter.

    4. Inflation has been declining for several weeks in a row. Gasoline prices began to decline in March and continued into April. Inflation is declining because Russia has stopped its imports, today prices are slowly untied from world prices.

    The impact of sanctions on the economy of Germany and the EU:

    1. The volume of imports from Russia to Germany, expressed in financial terms, rose to historical records. And we are not talking about energy supplies, but about other types of goods. This is written by the German edition of Die Welt. The Federal Statistical Office of Germany reports that the turnover with the Russian Federation in March alone amounted to more than 3.6 billion euros (in 2014 it was 3.5 billion), which is 44% more than last year.

    2. Europeans began to suffer from the closure of the Russian skies in response to the closure of the European skies for Russian companies. Because of this, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz recently had to fly to Japan via the North Pole, with refueling in Alaska. The total lengthening of the flight in one direction was an hour and a half. But this is for the chancellor, and for ordinary people, the delay compared to the normal route through Russia and China can be much longer. In addition, flying over the pole is more dangerous than flying over populated areas. There is nowhere to make an emergency landing and refuel, so the preparation of cars and pilots requires increased attention.

    3. European Union airlines have been hit hard by sanctions against Russia. This is stated in the draft resolution of the European Parliament (EP). As noted in the draft, the aviation sector is faced with rising costs, rerouting and flight cancellations. The document states that the increase in the route for flying around the airspace of the Russian Federation and Belarus takes up to four hours one way, which leads to problems with refueling and an increase in the working day of the crew. The EP also drew attention to possible interruptions in the supply of titanium used in the construction of aircraft in the near future, the main producers of which are Russia and Ukraine.

    4. Germany is experiencing an inflationary shock in the food retail sector. This is stated in an article in the German newspaper Handelsblatt. The publication recalled that food prices rose by more than 6 percent in March. At the same time, the cost of fresh vegetables increased by more than 14 percent, and vegetable oil – by 17 percent. The consumer climate in Germany is deteriorating. According to the GfK forecast, the consumer climate index will decrease by 26.5 points. This is the lowest value for all time of measurements. Company expert Robert Kechkes explained that consumer budgets have shrunk due to overall rising costs. The reason for this was the strong uncertainty of the Germans, he added. Earlier, the country's Federal Statistical Office (Destatis) reported that annual inflation in April 2022 in Germany will accelerate to 7.4 percent, which is a record for many years.

    5. Consumer prices in the euro area in April rose by 7.5 percent in annual terms, according to preliminary data from the Statistical Office of the European Union. This is an absolute record in the history of calculations. Inflation has accelerated, in March it was 7.4 percent. Inflation exceeds the target of the European Central Bank (set at two percent) by more than three times. This trend is associated primarily with the rise in energy prices, despite the fact that the growth rate slowed down to 38 percent (compared to 44.4 percent in March). The lowest inflation rates over the past 12 months were recorded in Malta (4.5 percent), France (5.1 percent) and Portugal (5.5 percent), the highest in Lithuania (15.6 percent), Estonia (14 .8 percent) and the Czech Republic (11.9 percent).

    6. After the imposition of sanctions against the subsidiary of the Russian holding Novatek, Novatek Green Energy in Poland, the supply of blue fuel to dozens of municipalities was stopped. In Bulgaria, the cost of gas due to the cessation of supplies from the Russian Federation increased by 50%.

    7. The euro crashed to the lows of early 2020, before the lockdown.

    Impact of sanctions on the US economy:

    1. The US economy contracted in the first quarter of 2022 by 1.4 percent year on year.

    2. The US trade deficit in March amounted to $109.8 billion against 89.8 billion a month ago. The pace of deficit expansion is unprecedented.

    The West poured all military surpluses onto Ukraine, and also took on the maintenance of the Ukrainian economy in the amount of 5-7 billion dollars a month.

    Inside the countries that support anti-Russian measures, political problems are intensifying due to rising world prices.

    Honestly, sanctions should of just been used to encourage people to protest to stop the war not to punish the people, I feel sanctions have gone too far. I don’t want the whole damn country to collapse even if their attacking another country. Their fucking humans too, why do the people have to be impoverished bc of a stupid leaders decisions?

    What will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his own soul ? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul, Jesus said. It’s appointed for man once to die then the judgement. Jesus came from heaven to earth to die on the cross and rise from the grave to forgive our sins. Jesus said to turn from sin and believe the Gospel for forgiveness !!! Only Jesus righteousness met the perfect standard of God. Because all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. All have lied and stolen and looked with lust. The wages of sin is ( eternal ) death but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Goodness existed before I was born. All goodness IS GOD. We simply and humbly accept His goodness in and through us Christians. Self righteousness is pride !!! How can anyone do anything apart from the creator ???????
    HOPE IN LOVE ❤️🙏🙂
    Salvation is found in no one else, no other name under heaven given among men where by we must be saved.
    Saved from the punishment of sin.
    I’m trying to offer people Hope in absolute perfection !!!
    No more pain, dying, lies, decay, depression, anxiety, crying, sickness, rotten food, broken things , etc…
    offering the Hope of Eternity in heaven with Jesus Christ.
    We must be willing to turn from sin and to believe the Gospel, Mark 1:15 to receive Jesus forgiveness.
    He who does the will of God abides for eternity 1 John 2:17

Along with china, india, pakistan, turkey and north korea continued doing bussines with russia. Sanctions will be felt only in Europe and USA and on people with average and lowest income. Russia will be back on its feet in mather of months, and western countries will feel the effects for much longer.
