The failure of Western sanctions on Russia.

Revenues to the Russian budget from the sale of oil and gas in 2024 increased by almost a third, amounted to from a third to a half of all federal budget revenues over the past decade and reached the highest level since at least 2018, Bloomberg and REUTERS write.
Russian federal budget revenues from oil and gas sales in 2024 increased by more than 26% and amounted to 11.13 trillion rubles ($108.22 billion).
At the same time, tax revenues from the sale of crude oil and refined products in 2024 increased to 9.19 trillion rubles ($89.4 billion) and amounted to 83% of the total oil and gas revenues of the Russian Federation.
This is attributed to rising prices for Urals crude oil, the average price of which reached $67.6 per barrel in 2024, 10% higher than in 2023.
At the same time, the discount of Urals to the global benchmark Brent for tax purposes has decreased, even despite the price restrictions imposed by the G7 countries.

🌍✨ BRICS vs WEF: Who's Really Shaping the Future? ✨🌍

What happens when two worlds collide? 🛡⚔️ On one side, the Billionaire Boys' Club (as RFK Jr. called the WEF), gathering in Davos with private jets and big speeches about our future. On the other, BRICS Nations, forging their own path with bold nuclear projects, massive infrastructure plans, and a philosophy that screams: sovereignty first.

In our latest video, we dive into the heart of this epic clash! 🚀 Is BRICS the answer to globalist dominance, or is it just another player in the same game? And what does this mean for YOU? 🤔

Let’s flip the script, folks. The future’s being shaped, and it’s time to decide who’s writing the story. ✍️🚨 Let’s talk. Let’s think. Let’s act.

China's extraordinary rise to a $37.07 trillion GDP in purchasing power parity is truly remarkable, showcasing a strategic approach that blends innovation with infrastructure development. It's pivotal for other economies to analyze and learn from this incredible journey.

The law of unintended consequences strikes again - The US wanted Germany to decouple from Russia. It led to factory closures and economic depression. Then it demanded the EU increase tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles. 👉 China could soon be making cars in Germany for sale in Europe. 😅 @LauraRuHK
