Pretty interesting that the Ruble is the worlds best performing currency this year. I was told in the conflict thread that there was literally no way this could happen, and to think anything other than the ruble will be worthless by now and Russia would have lost by now makes someone a Putin supporter.
@Da Speeit Thoughts? Especially now that we are sending another 40 billion, making it over 50 billion we are now giving Ukraine that they will never have to give back?
It is crazy to botch anything worse than the Afghan withdrawal.. but the approach to this conflict seems to be even worse in terms of geo-political blunders.

Also more European countries opening accounts to buy gas in rubles.
