World media have formed a new trend – they predict the collapse of the Russian economy. And this time, this is not an immersion in the fantasies of some experts, but an analysis of the closed figures of the federal budget of Muscovy.
Bloomberg calculated that the Kremlin’s spending on the war will increase by 43% of the officially planned. The publication draws such conclusions, reaching the secret articles of the budget of Muscovy.
Bunkerny “mortgaged” $65 billion for the war out of the $143 billion provided for the upkeep of the Russian power bloc. This is very little, since, according to Forbes, every month the “denazification of Ukraine” costs the Kremlin $12 billion. That is, only $144 billion is needed for military operations, and this does not take into account the restoration of military equipment losses, the manufacture of new missiles, etc. By the way, remember the figure of $78 billion ($143 billion in spending on the power unit – $65 billion on defense) – this is how much is spent on various apostates of the regime there – the FSB, the FSO, the National Guard, the police, etc.)
The gap between official and real spending is often funded by Mordor’s secret budget, which adds up to 25%, or $95 billion. Most of these billions will be spent privately.
Now we can calculate: the Russian federal budget is $379.5 billion. The total check for “national defense” – due to excessive secrecy – is difficult to mathematically compile, but it can by no means be less than $222 billion ($144 billion in war spending) $ 78 billion for the maintenance of the police-FSB regime). This includes only the financing of the basic needs of a totalitarian state: warfare and maintenance.
In other words, if Bloomberg and Forbes give correct figures, it means that Muscovites are spending today 3/5 of their federal budget on the war with Ukraine. But Russian military spending as a whole has not grown much, the empire’s income has simply decreased and various off-budget nests are running out. Therefore, the burden on the official treasury increases.
An increasing number of publications give a general assessment of the situation among the Muscovites. Here’s the latest: Russia’s economy is starting to fall apart – WSJ. There are many interesting passages, but I think the key one is: “Despite Russia’s resilience in the short term, the long-term picture is grim: Moscow will be much more closed and overly dependent on China.”
We all expect victory at the front, but the economic war against the Russian Federation also brings its results, bringing our victory closer. Not a single serious analyst talks about “the collapse of the Muscovite economy in 2-3 weeks,” but at the same time, not a single conscious person predicts the ability of the bunker regime to hold on for years. Iran and North Korea cannot be an argument here, since neither of them is waging a full-scale war.
