Global Events & Politics Überthread

I haven’t seen much that supports that last part.

Anything new ?

Lots of signs things are getting worse in Russia. Russia has waived requirements for cars to have airbags and ABS because they can't get components. Imagine the outcry if American car makers didn't have to install airbags.

Russian airlines are screwed too. They can't get parts for necessary components and are already considering changing maintenance guidelines. They're boasting about a plan to return to old domestic plane designs but those planes aren't fuel efficient enough to be profitable.

You're seeing shortages of all kinds of goods across Russia, everything from food to botox.

The main reason the Ruble is strong is because Russian imports have tanked. There's no need for foreign currency.

Current predictions are the Russian economy will shine between 8 and 15 percent this year. That's a massive contraction.

There's not been a collapse and probably won't ever be a sudden collapse. But the Russian economy is a ship taking on water and there's not enough trade they can do with India and China to make up for what they've lost.

And the whole world isn't seeing supply chain issues?
 
If you can't see the difference between supply chain issues and a lockdown on imports so severe that basic car safety features are being abandoned, I can't help you.

If you can't see the difference between car safety parts and formula for babies I can't help you.

But please continue to tell us how the Russian people are about to overthrow PUtin and how he is mentally insane. That has worked out well.
 
The same people saying the Russian Economy is in the tank are the same people that said Russia was losing the war and now it looks like Russia is about to control all of south and eastern Ukraine while the EU is talking about signing a peace deal and giving all the territory to Putin.

Keep listening to these morons.

Should have been the position from day 1 but Americans are too susceptible to regime propaganda.

Sanctions will cripple the west to the point they are undone far before they impact Russia.

Still so adorable the same people try and defend our actions.

The amount of propaganda sharing in this thread is amazing. What good little sheep.

There are two ways of looking at this. One is that Sweeden needs to shut down immigration and do whatever they can to drive immigrants out. The other way of looking at it is that Sweeden has a societal problem with how they assimilate immigrants leaving them outcast and disillusioned, perfect gang material.

The assumption of 'assimilation' was always the issue. Human being naturally want to stay in their packs and ignoring human nature is what gets us into situations like this.

For starters Sweden needs to absolutely shut down immigration because adding 'un-assimilated' people into the population is only going to exasperate this issue. Then the government has to do some serious outreach and understand whats happening with the youth and collecting a council of elders in the population that could guide you to better policy.

Blame everyone but the actual criminals

What Sweden needs to do is shut down immigration and round every one of these people up and send them away. That’s the only way to fix this problem

More will pop up but I agree that anyone that commits a crime and is not a citizen should be deported immediately. Not sure what their naturalized citizenship looks like in Sweden.
