Why the west laughs about Putins "threats" for sanctions against EU and USA

[ChineseTiger1986]

Check US real GDP as per hong kong credit rating agency Dagong. Its 6 trillion.

lol, Japan still can't get over with the fact that they have lost their 2nd economic position to China since 2010.

Pure sore loser mentality.

Japan is finished with the massive plutonium contamination that Fukushima continues to do.

No, China's GDP (real) stands at $4.8 Trillion.

Pretty sure it is 9.2 trillion. Source would be nice.

Pure sore loser mentality.

Our GDP stands at $5 Trillion, while we only have 128 million.

China's GDP (real) is at $4.8 Trillion. While you have 1.2 billion people.

Statistically, it should be 10x what it is considering the population size. lol.

Japan's Economy is greater than France's, Germany's, UK's, Italy's. So we have no quandries.

We are 3rd largest economy in the world and growing at 1.4%. So pretty good, i will say.

And pretty sure that Japan's GDP will shrink again in this year with the depreciation of Yen.

I'm referring to GDP (real).

And pretty sure that Japan's GDP will shrink again in this year with the depreciation of Yen.

It's actually expected to rise to $5.3 Trillion by fiscal end.

You are starting to talk about nonsense.

Are you sure that you live in 2014 not 2009?

My dear boy, if you know anything about economics or finance, you will understand the dichotomies between nominal and real GDP. Now, go read and research before you discourse with me.

And China will become 10 trillion being double of yours, and soon will be become triple and more.

My dear boy, if you know anything about economics or finance, you will understand the dichotomies between nominal and real GDP. Now, go read and research before you discourse with me.

If you check China's manufacturing capability and its annual consumption, then you will get a clear picture of its economic size.

 

[Aepsilons]

And China will become 10 trillion being double of yours, and soon will be become triple and more.

Naturally, given the population size. Yours should have been at least 4 times the size of the United States'. ^^,

It should be 4x 17.25 Trillion = 69 Trillion.

Good luck tho. Honestly.

although i dnt support invasion of any country .. but since the world has become bipolar.. USA is so arrogant, no respect for UN, using it like pet to legitimate it occupation of countries, they have already killed millions in afgnaistan and iraq, their intervention in middle east lead to destablization of whole region ... im glas someone is standing up against the biggest bully and terrortist of the world

Putin is stupid. You can see this in the way he pushs his country into bankruptcy. He cant deliver gas and oil to china yet, simply because he lacks the infrastructure. At the momemt he simply kills himself.

He's a former KGB agent, he's in charge of a country, and has successfully taken territory from two countries without having to worry about foreign military intervention. Everything he does is calculated, don't mistake his actions for stupidity. You don't become an intelligence agent, and the leader of a country by being stupid.

While it is true that Russia lacks the infrastructure to start selling gas to China to compensate for the EU, it is also true that by the time the sanctions actually do major damage, the flow of gas will begin. Sanctions may have instantaneous effects, but they themselves aren't instantaneously implemented, there is usually a grace period where people and companies doing business with the sanctionee, are given a time limit to withdraw their investments. Look at Iran, it took around 2 years for the sanctions to fully come into affect.

Also keep in mind that the sanctions by the EU are mostly watered down, and pretty much symbolic; They have very little effect on Russia's economy. The sanctions that Russia is worried about is the US' sanctions, which could harm Russia's international investment, but Putin has smartly started to rally his international supporters (such as India) to try and mitigate, or completely negate the effects of those sanctions.

Stop trolling man. No need to belittle another country for not having as high of a GDP.

Is presenting statistical fact disparaging?
