No, it's not just oil on which Putin's economy rests quite well, and this allows the Orthodox Rashist Caliphate not only to continue, but also to intensify the War against Ukraine...
Alas, there are no sanctions from the EU on Russian non-ferrous metals (aluminum, nickel, copper, etc.), on liquefied gas, on nuclear fuel.
And this is at least another 30 billion dollars a year for the Russian military budget.
Plus the greatly increased supplies of Russian pipeline gas to the EU.
Calculations show that the net gain to Rashistan from the absence of sanctions on certain resources, goods, services and capital, and from the understated and often formal control of compliance with imposed sanctions by the West, is $85-90 billion per year directly in Putin's military budget.
$90 billion net profit!
And now the racshists are preparing to raise this profit in 2025 to 115-120 billion dollars!
Compare these colossal amounts for yourself with the financial and material dimensions of Western aid to Ukraine.
And this against the backdrop of a sharp drop in military supplies to Ukraine.
On the fronts, a sharp hunger for shells and combat equipment begins to be experienced again, air defense systems are suffocating.
With a destroyed heating infrastructure, it is practically left to Ukraine to take care of the winter and the dog cold.
Those who have problems with heating should solve them themselves. The West has no such problems...
The question arises with sharp force and terrible notes of ugly suspicion:
After Putin could not get Ukraine to make territorial concessions against a hypothetical peace, now did the West take up this task?
