Europe's standoff with Russia has affected the region's largest economy after economic confidence in Germany nosedived unexpectedly, fuelling fears the eurozone's weak recovery will be snuffed out. 1 Like |
Re: German Economy Falters As Russia Sanctions Take Their Toll by Nobody: 11:49am On Aug 13, 2014 |
Europe's largest economy is about to nose-dive, while the smaller ones are already in the toilet. With the UK and France still standing(I doubt that will last for long due to how Europe is interconnected). scary. This is what happens when you let a selfish adventurist keep making you follow it everywhere like a dog. The EU can stand alone and make decisions for itself. The sanctions are just getting started, yet everyone is feeling the heat. What will happen when the full economic war starts? Lose lose for everyone involved smh.. Another recession is on the horizon. 5 Likes |

^^^^Principle for an inconsequential country and the people have to suffer because of the adventurism of another country on the other part of the planet, across the Atlantic, no? What's in Ukraine for Europe, apart from scroungers, an economy that's basket-case, and fracking that America has already appointed Joe Biden's son as the head of Ukrainian oil company? 6 Likes |

Germany would know the real meaning of sanction if Russian bans German made cars. Since Russia banned importation of apple from Poland, the Polish government had been urging its citizens to increase eating apple . The EU never expected this from Putin, next time they will think twice before following US like slaves. 8 Likes |

BekeeBuAgbara: Germany would know the real meaning of sanction if Russian bans German made cars. Since Russia banned importation of apple from Poland, the Polish government had been urging its citizens to increase eating apple. The EU is already begging Latin America not to replace it, in food export to Russia. But Latin America is not having it since they're non-allied. Poland has also asked America to buy the apples meant for export to Russia. And that's just food sanctions alone, now imagine if they cut the gas or ban German companies in Russia - it's over for the EU. America has nothing to worry since it's overly in debt and all they have to keep printing trillions of dollars they can't account for, till other countries dump the dollar and start trading in another currency. 9 Likes |

The EU stands to lose a lot in their shivering economy. Following the USA is not going to help them out. If these continue I see rioting on the streets of European countries because when the people can no longer have it they will put the heat on the Government. Most Europeans would prefer closer ties with russia than America but like always, The government never represents the will of the people. 3 Likes |

What's d point of this thread?To glorify one nation annexing another?Putin's ambition if not checked wud not stop @ukraine.The man's aim is to annex all former soviet territories.If anyone is under any delusion dat d EU wud suffer d most,den its a pity. D russians are going dis far to apply retaliatory sanctions bc its faltering economy wud b left in ruins if any extended sanctions on it are applied.

At OP, Honestly, what I'm yet to understand is the blind and sheepish EU's obedience to the US... Can't the EU for once be their own voice, from the beginning of this crises it was clear that EU was just a pun in the hand of the US and then I was confident that EU will find its own voice but I was left very disappointed. Putin warned the EU that sanctions will boomerang on them and ironically Americas second quarter economy grew by almost four percent while those of the EU are nosediving. The truth of the matter is that this game will be won by Putin, because EU can not afford another recession at this time and fighting between The rebel and Ukraine government will never end against Putin instead Putin will invade the country and just watch as the yanks will quietly crawl back into their hole... After all he did it to the Georgians! 1 Like |

It's only those biased analysts that refused to acknowledge that Russia has little to lose in this war of sanctions. They depend less on Europe whereas Europe depends more on the Russians. It's common sense knowledge to understand who will cry first. 2 Likes |

castrogee: At OP, Personally, I think the yanks are trying to kill two birds with one stone here. EU led by Germany is America's rival in the West, and while the Russian economy is small compared to EU and America - American elites want the resources in Russia. They're trying to bring the EU down, while they isolate Russia and destroy its economy, to force Putin out. However, Putin has outsmarted them...and his approval rating is at an all time high, pending the end game in Eastern Ukraine. And he has also played his cards right - by engineering more cooperation with BRICS, Euroasia, and Latin America. But the EU is the one suffering from the madness from both sides. America has the luxury of printing just any amount of dollars, to shore up anything that might happen. The EU doesn't have that luxury...and it looks more like American domination of Europe again like the cold war era. However, I don't see the yanks lasting long because as soon as it starts hitting the economies in Europe hard, expect the people to start speaking out. And going against the people in Europe is suicidal - so EU will fall back soon. Europe can't afford this madness. I also believe Putin will invade Eastern Ukraine in the next few days or weeks, the humanitarian crisis is dire, and the Ukies are getting closer to the separatists. He can't afford to lose that war, else his approval ratings will plummet. Putin's survival is kind of dependent on Eastern Ukraine. 2 Likes |
