I liken russia to an exjunkie who has found a new drug , he is feeling awesome and he says its different this time. The withdrawal will come again at some point and it wont be pretty. Russia is becoming fast the newest victim of the oil curse

through the windfall of high gas and oil prices russia is swimming in money, this reduces the pressure on actual reforms and greatly supports authoritarian leaders who retain strict control of the oilwealth

russia is once more heading into selfdestruction, russian economy might be growing in real terms but if you exclude the oilbusiness and those who profit indirectly from the oilwealthy (luxury goods etc) you can see that russian business is deteriorating

one only has to look at russian exports for this to become clear

It pains me to see russia like this once more, the russian peole deserve better.

I liken russia to an exjunkie who has found a new drug , he is feeling awesome and he says its different this time. The withdrawal will come again at some point and it wont be pretty.
