    GDP is not an indicator of a healthy economy.

    Likewise every action that hurts Russia is beneficial even if you personally can’t see the effects of it.

      I just don’t see how it hurts Russia as a nation. I only see it hurting Russians who have nothing to do with the state’s actions.

        Russians have everything to do with their states actions.

        In fact they have more to do with it than anyone else on the planet as it is their responsibility

          Again, this assumes Russia’s elections are run freely and fairly which we know is not the case.

              You’re a little flog sitting in your western first world nation home that mum and dad likely own and you’re judging people on the other side of the world living under a dictatorship.

              Absolutely no fucking idea.
