Russian election

[said]

Putin has won with 88% of the vote! If he had been aided by Biden's campaign leaders he may have improved his percentage win to that of Biden - 96%.

Does it matter of the election was fixed? I don't think so - the standards under which Russian citizens are living is higher than ours, and they got to vote for their leader.

Codswallop really is your forte, isn’t it ??

Murdering your opponents has always been an effective strategy for winning elections.
When asked to rate their general satisfaction with life on a scale from 0 to 10, Russians on average gave it a 5.5 grade, lower than the OECD average of 6.7.

Can't argue with that.

Blimey Prof that's stretching things a tad

But then I suppose it depends on which "standards" your writing about.

The three Russians I know might disagree, they ain't rushing back.

Still, their model democracy is a highlight

Putin needs an ego rub after reading our press.

I cannot answer that, and you would not know because you cannot see me.

Putin would not read our press - he has more sense than that. Our press is linked to the stock markets, no way are you going to get any news which is detrimental to the stock market therefore anything you read in the news must be taken with a pinch of salt.

Look up live CCTV in Russia - it has some fantastic shops and the streets are lovely and clean, to top it all - the sanctions mean nothing to the Russians,

It may surprise you alone to learn that, we dont get BBC news here.

Not what the Ruskis tell me.

Still, I am sure Russia will welcome both of you with open arms, don't forget to pack your suitcase with a few "treats" the shop's shelves have a few gaps.

The effect of all this can be observed clearly in the car manufacturing sector. Virtually all global car manufacturers had established operations in Russia prior to the war, producing vehicles mainly for the domestic market.

But in the spring of 2022, production of cars collapsed by almost 90% from the pre-invasion levels and it has only partially recovered since. In the first quarter of 2023, car production is less than 25% of the pre-invasion level. All Western brands have exited the market: of the remaining 14 car brands in Russia, three are Russian and 11 are Chinese.

The experience of car manufacturing is not unique. Similar drops in production were experienced in electronics and machinery. For example, Russia produces far fewer railway cars, televisions, lifts and fibre optic cables than before. At the same time, imports of Chinese vehicles have ballooned.


Still Russia can and has stepped up the manufacturing and commodity basics for now.


Toodle pip, have a nice trip.
