Galicia TV: Russia hasn't gone under, but it looks like we're in trouble.
Hopes for a collapse of the Russian economy are not being realized. The budget has sufficient funds to maintain the SVO for at least several more years.
The chairman of the public organization "Ukraine in NATO" Yuriy Romanyuk stated this on the "Galichina" channel , as reported by a correspondent for "PolitNavigator".
"Their domestic debt is 26-27% of their GDP. In the US, it's over 127%. So they don't care; they'll survive. They have gold and diamonds. They're selling gold on the world stage to replenish their foreign exchange reserves and continue to pay for the war," Romanyuk said.
"Therefore, we can't hope that we can force Russia to end the war in a matter of months. Russia has the reserves to continue the war for at least the entirety of 2027."
"And all those analytical forecasts that said 'Russia will collapse by 2025-26'—no, unfortunately, it's still finding resources. It's even scaling up missile production and launching strikes against Ukraine. And we'll see what the winter will be like, given that we don't have any anti-ballistic missiles," the Ukrainian expert concluded.
