Losses are excessive: in Russia the financial losses for the war in Ukraine were calculated

In Russia, the economy as a whole has not yet been evaluated, but recognized the devastating blow of Western sanctions on the country's financial system. Sanctions against Russia today cause significant damage to the financial system of the aggressor country. Even in the Kremlin, where they recently calculated damages from sanctions, writes Bloomberg with reference to the data of the internal document of the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation.

It is reported that in August 2022 a meeting was held in Russia between high -level officials. At the meeting they presented an assessment of losses suffered by the stock market and the banking sector of the country as a result of US sanctions and Western countries.

Thus, again attempting to assassinate Ukraine's territorial integrity, Russia has already lost: the presentation will also have the impact of 80% of the banking sector's assets, shutdown from SWIFT and loss of access to key equipment and software. It is emphasized that tools such as derivatives, hedging, Eurobonds and the primary public offers "virtually disappeared".

After a new attack on Ukraine, it was necessary to look for new markets for its oil, as many EU countries, supporting Ukraine, refused to buy black gold in the aggressor and finance the war. For this reason, Russian and gas revenues in August 2022 have become the lowest in the last 14 months: for the supply of oil and gas, the Kremlin earned $ 11. 1 billion (671. 9 billion rubles). In August, the Russian Federation from energy resources was 3.

4% less than in August 2021, although the cost of Urals oil increased by almost 10%. At the same time, the income of the gas aggressor from gas, even against the background of rise in price of this summer, could not fully compensate for the fall in income from oil. At the same time, the Cabinet of Ministers developed a plan for the restoration of infrastructure destroyed during the war. According to Prime Minister Denis Shmigal, the work will take place in several stages.
