Konstantin is the Best! This Men is the only RUzzian in the world with Integrity. I wish all the ruZzys could be like him, but the ruZzys don't have any feelings, Sympathy even for their own Race. You see how the RUzzian ARMY Treat, Beat Robe and Steal from their own Soldiers.
Immediately after Konstantins stream (in which yours was mentioned) I switched to this channel. Both of you are well spoken and a pleasure to listen to. Elsche the Netherlands
Thanks, awesome interview again! Have gotten all of my close relatives in Finland/Sweden to watch you show, and they all have only good things to say about it! Keep up the good work, and glory to Ukraine.
If not for your channels, I wouldn't know what to think of the russian economy. Now I know where they got the money from for the last few years. And that the funds are drying up. Now I know that the sanctions are making sure that new equipment from other countries isn't coming in. Now I know that maintenance workers are too few to keep everything up. Now this very high interest rate to keep the inflation off, but fueling a depression, since companies can't borrow money for a reasonable price. Thank you so much for informing us about these things.
I just was reading earlier today that india has been sending sanctioned tech to ruZZia. Chips and other military use items. So ruZZia has been getting many things we were hoping they would be running low on. We need to stop enriching nations that work against democratic values. Brics is laughing at our inaction and they are united and working together better than the EU... The EU is strong enough to win but obviously lacks the leadership to protect the values it claims...
Just adding that equipment from other countries IS coming in. Some of it. Investigative journalists in countries like Lithuania are working round the clock to expose companies that are helping Russia avoid sanctions with the help of companies based in Kyrgyzstan and other -stans. One of the presidential candidates in Lithuania, Ignas Vegele's family owns a company like that. There was a huge scandal and he didn't win the election. So there are attempts to circumvent the sanctions, as well as crackdowns on those attempting it.
I just wish they wouldnt rush to say everything in 40 minutes ..they could have stretch this out to 8 hours and really fking bored the shat out of me ... 5 minutes please
Thank you Johnathan and Konstantin for yet another conversation filled with insights. It's helpful to hear how various economic performances can and do affect the Russian populace. Slava Heroiam Ukraini, Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦 from Canada 🇨🇦 Stay strong, keep smart.

ONE WONDERS JUST HOW MUCH STRESS & DAMAGE TO MENTAL HEALTH WILL BE THE FATE OF RUSSIANS AS THE ECONOMY CONTINUES TO WORSEN. MOTHER RUSSIA, YOU MAY SOON BE IN A HEALTH CRISIS WORSE THAN YOU HAVE KNOWN SINCE SOVIET TIMES. from 🇨🇦
This konstantin has already been saying that russia will tank in 2022 People seem to forget that it's the current ukraine that is at risk of collapsing.
Totally agree. There's more mental health issues here in Czechia, due to complications after Covid-19, low availability of real estate due to the influx of Ukrainian refugees, long-term shortage of therapists, higher taxes, the proximity of the war and very uncertain future in general. And yet, these must be peanuts compared to what most of Russia is going through.
Thanks Jonathan. Your channel is outstanding in this field - congratulations. Konstantin was very interesting about state owned industries. ESKOM in South Africa is a prime example of what can go wrong and I imagine that particular situation is like a tea-party compared to what is going on in Ruzzia.
I just looked at your subscriber numbers Jonathan and I cannot for the life of me understand why you haven't sailed past half a million yet - this show is absolutely essential viewing! Konstantin is right of course although in fairness there has been talk amongst pundits of a multi-channel approach to Russian collapse for at least a year - specifically, over and above via the military route, the economic one and/or the political ones namely some sort of mass protest or rebellion. Ironically, despite receiving substantially the most attention and despite the obvious gravity of that situation, it's generally agreed the military solution is the least likely. It's going to be all but impossible for Russia to take over all of Ukraine because who is anyone really kidding when they talk about "deals being done regarding the four provinces plus Crimea"? It's beyond preposterous because EVERYONE with even an opaque window onto Russia and Putain, can see that such a deal would amount to nothing but a staging post - another piece of paper for Putain to completely ignore. That's why peace talks even on the most tentative basis are pie in the sky - Zelensky's heart and head have only hardened against Putain who he knows so well. He knows Putain would NEVER go for a DMZ, UN peacekeepers and Ukraine joining NATO. And HONESTLY Jonathan, I KNOW it's fashionable to slag NATO off - but surely - just SURELY - sufficient wise heads in that august body will convince enough people that Russia just CANNOT be allowed to permanently annex and colonise bits of - and ultimately all - of someone else's country. Putain may well be riding a truck over it today - but he signed The Treaty on the Russian-Ukrainian border back in January 2003 which was subsequently ratified April 2004 - so we can see from the fact less than a single decade passed not before the world saw a minor encroachment or a border misunderstanding but a takeover followed 8 years again by an all out grab for the rest of the country- no, the Russians messed about almost from the off, just accidentally on purpose not forging ahead with the actual on-the-ground marking out of the border and installing the relevant checkpoints. This was apparently done unilaterally by Ukraine the year after Crimea happened, clearly very concerned indeed (as they were right to be), that if they didn't the unreliable and tricky Russians would argue the toss about every single square inch and drag Ukraine into interminable and completely unresolvable land disputes, in the meantime a perfect excuse for trying to snatch the rest of the country by military force. Wisely Ukraine said no way José and just went right on ahead - literally staking their claim. Russia is and always has been the Imperial Grand Master of Fuck Around. It has an almost insanely puerile attitude that constantly amazes me at just what an astonishing resemblance it bears to a pouty, manipulative, arrogant, shameless 16 year old who can deploy the entire gamut of acting techniques to throw us off the scent - everything from feigned wide eyed innocence (even when caught red handed), maintaining the denial for as long as it needs to and whether pointing the finger of blame at another is - or becomes - part of the whole charade, or not. Just look at the behaviour regarding the gas pipeline disputes. Russia behaved like the same dreary old petulant reactive drunken gangster it always has done. Isn't the world getting SICK of it? I m sure the answer is yes but what's different about the current situation is that even Russia can't deny the devastating lengths to which it is prepared to go quite simply on the whims of one deranged tyrant. It is no longer a matter for speculation nor wait and see nor hoping it goes away. Russia can absorb VAST amounts of punishments which don't come cost free to all those of us in the West meting it out. Russia isn't just good at hot wars of attrition. It's good at every other form of it too, taking an almost leering cynical spiteful delight and realising its disruptive effects which are done fully consciously and deliberately. It is that great oozing, rotting, festering pile of stink that just screws around almost cos it can, its immense unwieldy size alone completely deterring any thought of anyone invading it, allowing it free rein in turn to be as irritatingly cocky and blithe as it wants like the school bully who pokes you in the ribcage then does it again and again.eacg time swearing blind it's not him even though he knows you and everyone else can see him do it. You've got to hand it to the bastards, they've turned it into an exquisite art. We need to stop assessing them by our standards which have evidently only grown even further apart than we thought since the end of the Second World War. Trump just needs to be jolted aware to this reality - and Putain needs to feel cold steel. Because as enough pundits are now wearily repeating, the ONLY thing the man can now understand is force.
Thank you Jonathan for your consistency and also Konstantin who gives us an inside view of deterioration in russia, always cheers the soul as it bodes better for Ukraine.
Even if the war finished tomorrow, the Russian economy would face a depression. The whole export infrastructure has been destroyed. It will take a long time to return the way it was before the war.
Yes. And there's also the issue of permafrost thawing. I haven't really seen anyone talk about this.... probably because it will play out over the next two decades or so and thusly is not relevant to what's going on right now. But fact is, it's in the process of happening and it doesn't look like it's going to slow down or stop. Rather the opposite. Most of Russia's natural gas deposits especially are up north in these areas. And that is not good news for Russia. Because as the ground thaws, it'll get soft and mushy and shift around. That's *bad* news for the related infrastructure. Buildings, extraction equipment, pipelines, roads... everything will be affected. I read an EOS article from 2021 recently (so not war related 'propaganda'), that estimates the damage related to this to exceed 100 billion $ in the next 15 years. Which would have been doable under normal circumstances. Prices would probably gone up some, but what choice would we have had but pay up and supply the necessary support and parts? But now? I doubt they will be able to handle it.
There is practically zero foreign investment in Russia at the moment and for the foreseeable future as well. Who knows what comes after putin???? Nobody is willing to make bets.
Imperialist conquest. Defense was never important. They thought the projection of their monopoly of fear and violence was absolute and enough, hence the ease of Ukraine to enter in Kurskchyna. No significant border defense whatsoever, anywhere. Their trust in their foreign policy projections is a most ironic weakness.
Good interview, there are so many ways to look at the economic picture. The loss of so many Human Resources that for socio economic reasons, prodded into the military and straight to war. Either a purge, or something along those lines. Pretty strange. Thank you, Strength And Love.
Always appreciate the endless hard work being produced by the Silicon Curtain! I like Konstantin, soo glad he’s feeling healthy! 👍 SLAVA UKRAINI! 🇺🇦🔱🚂💥
Konstantin Samoilov is a superstar! I hope he fully revers his health as well as his composure. He always speaks to you like you hope best friend would!
but Russian don't buy goods with inflated euros. Russian can buy stuff at 1/3 the price of Spain. Using local currency, Russia has the largest GDP in Europe
The yield on the 10-year Russian OFZ was at 15.8% in November 2024. A totally crazy situation. Putin is pumping money while the Russian Central Bank is trying pulling back money.
Ordinary Russians are suffering due to their own actions and culture. It's ordinary Russians who enlist to kill Ukrainians. The army is largely made up of contract soldiers who take Kremlin money to go to war. All those soldiers have family and friends who are part of the same system that valorizes hate of Ukraine and the murder of innocents.
every country around the world strives for equality (and superiority). This is why countries invent, build and work hard. In Russia they just have a completely different doctrine to achieve equality. Basically their aim is to drag other countries down in order to level the playing field instead. They do this by destroying, killing and stealing. If you go on to news channels you will often see hundreds of kremlin bots constantly trying to spread lies and division. All around the world, every year when people say something like "we did not vote for this incompetent [instead leader] it is most often Russia trying to topple the current person in charge. This does hold countries back, instead of having a harmonious society that would overtake Russia, countries every 4 years switch from one polital party to the other and then the whole cycle repeats. So in America you will often see a democrat in power, followed by republicans, back to demcrats and so on as Russia spends millions convincing people the person in charge at the time is no good. While they laugh about it. Free speech and free choice which does not exist in Russia is used as a weapon. Again just following their doctrine of trying to level the playing field, not by innovation but by destruction. It took me a while to figure this out. If the world was more aware that Russia is just a pile of 💩 and should be prevented being able to spread their propaganda their evil ways could be contained but russia can freely spread their misinformation to try and meddle with the way other countries progress.
What do you think will happen to the defense industry in the future? Their equipment is outdated. Why should any be interested in buying anything from Russia?
Majanduslik kokkuvarisemine on hea asi, see oleks nagu mädahamba lõplik eemaldamine, algul valus, aga pärast vabastav. Venemaa peab lähtestama ja mängima uut mängu uute inimestega.
@@jaceacekalgoorlie They won't be allowed to participate however... The increase in numbers disabled form 2022 to 2024 are staggering. Can't remember the numbers. It was crazy. Who is going to pay for their pensions? What kind of tragedies will spread through the russian society with the vodkadrinking for veterans? This issue is just one of many. Russia is completely destroyed in the coming years.
I'm not so convinced there were no freezing deaths there last winter due to so many utilities breaking ... I'd not be surprised to learn, they just didn't report about it and didn't allow their citizens to communicate this on their very surveyed social media apps. Especially after their "gazprom hamster ad", they're likely too ashamed and their authorities are still too proud to report this internally.
We've been hearing for almost 3 years that the russian economy is collapsing, with little outward sign (I live in Kyiv). I'm skeptical when our side sings us this tune, I think it lulls us into a false sense of security.

Free speech and free choice which does not exist in Russia is used as a weapon. Again just following their doctrine of trying to level the playing field, not by innovation but by destruction.
It took me a while to figure this out. If the world was more aware that Russia is just a pile of 💩 and should be prevented being able to spread their propaganda their evil ways could be contained but russia can freely spread their misinformation to try and meddle with the way other countries progress.
Glad to see he's feeling better!
Konstantin, like you, Jonathan, is always worth listening to.
What do you think will happen to the defense industry in the future? Their equipment is outdated. Why should any be interested in buying anything from Russia?
Nobody is buying Russian military hardware. Their arms exports have collapsed.
Majanduslik kokkuvarisemine on hea asi, see oleks nagu mädahamba lõplik eemaldamine, algul valus, aga pärast vabastav. Venemaa peab lähtestama ja mängima uut mängu uute inimestega.
Great interview.
Terrific subject.. Konstantin is always interesting and informative ❤❤👍🫶🇦🇺🦘
Great to see Konstantin's health has improved.
thanks
Please check out the increase in the number of disabled in Russia. Its not because of the Pandemic....
But the will dominate the Paralympics for years! Glory for Russia!
@@jaceacekalgoorlie They won't be allowed to participate however... The increase in numbers disabled form 2022 to 2024 are staggering. Can't remember the numbers. It was crazy. Who is going to pay for their pensions? What kind of tragedies will spread through the russian society with the vodkadrinking for veterans? This issue is just one of many. Russia is completely destroyed in the coming years.
I'm not so convinced there were no freezing deaths there last winter due to so many utilities breaking ... I'd not be surprised to learn, they just didn't report about it and didn't allow their citizens to communicate this on their very surveyed social media apps.
Especially after their "gazprom hamster ad", they're likely too ashamed and their authorities are still too proud to report this internally.

We've been hearing for almost 3 years that the russian economy is collapsing, with little outward sign (I live in Kyiv). I'm skeptical when our side sings us this tune, I think it lulls us into a false sense of security.
So glad and happy to see Konstantin is doing well. Great discussion, thank you.
Very insightful. Thanks.
Great reporting guys, keep up the good work! God bless.
Just brilliant, thank you.
Collapse? Dream on!
