The Trump-Putin Meeting: Who Will Dominate?
John Helmer wonders if Elvira Nabiullina, the Russian Central Bank director, has set up her protector Vladimir Putin for failure.
Elvira is known to be opposed to the rescue of Donbas Russians from oppression and extermination by Washington’s puppet in Kiev. Elvira’s first act of treason against Putin and the Russian state was arranging to leave Russia’s central bank reserves in Western institutions where Washington could seize them.
Her current treason is 21% interest rates which suppress investment and GDP growth and cause inflation which she then uses to justify her economy-killing high interest rates. Helmer provides the ruinous inflation rates Elvia’s anti-Russian, pro-Washington policy is causing in Russia. See here.
The inflation is being used by pro-western elements in Russia to blame the high cost of living on Putin’s never-ending war.
President Trump has concluded that inflation has weakened Putin’s position and that concessions can be wrung from him in exchange for an end to Washington’s support for the war. Additional
