In recent years we have lived in good times. I am talking not only about Bulgaria, but about the whole world. Now, crises, war, sanctions are suddenly piling up, and we continue to spend recklessly. In my opinion, in the good years we had to save so that when such hard times come, there is a place to take. For the last 30 years, the budget for the army has been small, and we have literally missed the modernization of the army.
Everything on the topic:
The Russian invasion of Ukraine 1590
–This was stated in the program “Face to Face” on BTV Economist Николай ВасилевNikolay Vassilev Vassilev is a Bulgarian politician from the Simeon National Movementwho commented on the topic of sanctions imposed on Russia for its invasion of Ukraine.
“From 2014 to 2021, Russia has certainly not become rich, but on the contrary has become poorer. Economic growth has fallen by nearly 40% over these years. The ruble is literally losing value every day. Shares of Russian companies are falling sharply – from 22- $ 23 a share a few days ago has now fallen to a few cents. Gazprom shares have fallen by more than 90%. All this is due to sanctions. The world has never been so united before. It is clear that everyone will suffer, but Russia cannot survive without US dollars, while Europe will be able to do without Russian gas. Russia will be in dire straits, and the West will survive economically. “There will certainly be a way to diversify gas supplies,” he added.
“It is good for Bulgaria that it is a large producer and exporter of electricity, grain and wheat. Bulgaria will cope. It is very likely that the whole world will soon refuse to give dollars to Russia. This will lead to a collapse in Russia. At some point it will turn out that there will be not only money for tanks, but also for pensions. All sanctions will result in losses of over one trillion dollars. ” predicts Николай Василев
