danger of stagflation?
russia is in stagflation for over a year at least, and wont be able to get out of it unless it stops the war and sanctions ease...

These Russian press reviews are hugely informative. Thank you 🙏!

one hand saying they are not enjoying sanctions and would be doing better without them, the other, we are willing to go all the way to Kiev. Reading between the lines “We are willing to negotiate, but we are also prepared to keep going” maybe this is a good thing for peace. Only the Kremlin knows

This was very helpful.
The danger TO RUSSIA will remain (!)
(as long as Kyiv has independent government.)

Actually, it's true. Seeing ppl w washing machines & indoor plumbing is a clear and present danger to Russian rulers.
People might get dissatisfied.
Torches & pitchforks.

Wonderful. I hope the whole ugly imperium will totally collapse and splinter to several independent and mutually hostile countries. Moscow is enough sized to be its own landlocked shithole.

If the Russian papers are saying this in public, what is the true situation?!?

A great summary and a glimpse of hope that the Putin regime will collapse. Question is what will come afterwards.

Russia will eventually have to take responsibility for its actions, but I'm not going to hold my breath waiting for that day. The news articles project wishful thinking built on a house of cards.

Interesting as always from Steve Rosenberg.

Must be really bad if they openly write about.

Is this slow progress or hoodwinking incoming decision makers in the west?

So does that mean that he’s saying that now - so that he can thank Trump for lifting the ‘cruel unfair’ sanctions next week in their fake Ukraine negotiations?
