THE ADVANTAGES OF BEING RUSSIAN IN RUSSIA AND THEIR ADDED

One feels a little disillusioned when you go that in the context of the current world their experience and knowledge which he has decided to expose openly by means of the new technologies are on one hand having guessed right and for other as ineffective as useless, this comes to story because today I have read an article about the current reality of Crimea that peninsula so important for Putin and their Armada and that it was the beginning of the checkmate that now it is imposing the NATO to the UE and the USA memory that he told them then that the best thing for occident was to let that Crimea becomes Russian because it was certain that there the main port of its naval armada of the Mediterranean was and that its absorption would cost the Russian more that not its defense on the part of occident and Ukraine. 

But what I didn't say and I don't say it is that after that concession allows you to continue playing to the monopoly on the part of Russia for two reasons one because it is for Putin a form of bothering us and on the other hand to distract their Russian that are not passing it well anything maxima when their revenues on the part of the petroleum have fallen in 50% they have already seen I suppose the last fight from Putin to one of their minister that of transport concretely to have bought 140 boxcars Spanish Talgo. The minister responded that the contract with Talgo was signed in 2011 and that 80% of the payments in concept of the same one has already been paid to the Spanish company. They already come like the things are.   

We’ll all this is the incoming one of that that in fact want stress again. Russia is very bad economically speaking and its system to avoid that this is recognized officially is to put in alert to the Russian army to make the Russian that it is necessary to defend of the attacks of the Westerners believe and that this is that is to say the cause of its wrongs Putin an external disaster it is believed to cover the authentic disaster. And as well as I always tell them the Russian town this so accustomed one that he believes it to him.  

From January of this year culminated the process of annexation of Crimea on the part of Russia. To the region he had to have arrived a wave of investments and tourism coming from their new one 'native mother', but to day of today to what their inhabitants face is to a galloping inflation, a dramatic reduction of the strange visitors and, in general, to an economy of layer fall. 

Since in March of 2014 Crimea he became independent of Ukraine and he adhered to Russia, many things have changed in this peninsula in the one that the old czars, and more afternoons the Ukrainian citizens, they used to vacation. For their 2 million residents, the reality is far from the prosperity that they promised them that they will reach with the union to Russia, some expectations created by the supposed investment plans that the Kremlin advanced and that it even outlined the construction of a complex tourist type "the Vegas." 

The main economic sector of the region, the tourism, is in free fall affected mainly by the sanctions imposed by Ukraine and the European Union. According to the official data picked up by "Bloomberg", the number of tourists that they chose Crimea like destination of vacations decreased in a third last year, until the four million visitors. 80% of them was Russian, a significant increase if it is compared with 2013, when they represented alone 25% of the total. He throws in lack the entrance of Ukrainian that were the thick of the travelers up to 2014 and that now practically have disappeared. 

In the last months, many international business have left of the country, a retreat that has not been compensated with the arrival of Russian companies. UniCredit, MasterCard, Approves or McDonald's, among other, they have tossed the closing to its business in Crimea. In their place a trade economy has been implanted of 'alone cash'. While, the Russian signatures have just decided to bet for the new Russian territory, not even the state bank OAO Sberbank, the biggest entity in the country.  

The explanation, as it indicates Bloomberg the professor of Political Sciences of the Superior School of Economy of Moscow, Nikolai Petrov, is that they want to avoid possible sanctions to operate in Crimea, to the one that as much USA as the European Union describe as “busy territory”, however, for most of inhabitants of the peninsula, the most pressing problem is the rise in the price of the foods and the no provisioning of the stores. In accordance with official sources of the authorities of Crimea, the inflation in December was of 42.4% in terms inter annuals.  

This advance is due, fundamentally, to the blockade imposed by Ukraine that there is illegalized in an indirect way the trade with Crimea when not recognizing the frontier. In fact, Ukraine doesn't allow any communication type with its old territory. Few products have gotten rid of this blockade and now most of the provisioning of the feeding stores and supermarkets arrive, via ferry, from Russia, with the consequent turnaround of the costs. This naturally is a false position in theory if Crimea wanted and she supported union to Russia it was for just the opposite that is to say was better to depend on a super power with 140 million clients and of an incalculable economic potential that of a country like Ukraine that today is not still known it belongs to what block. 

Today the government from Crimea would like this way to receive supplies of Ukraine to avoid the social tensions, but the politics is triumphing on the business in Ukraine, Sergei affirms Makeyev, director of the Association of Trade of Crimea. After the annexation, Vladimir Putin, president from Russia, intended to reward his new voters duplicating the pays to about 560.000 pensioners and 200.000 public workers. But this ascent of the revenues has been gobbled by the growing inflation.

This way the things, the 681.000 million rubles that Russia had committed to spend in Crimea until the year 2020, including infrastructure, they could not be enough to satisfy the necessities of the region, Oleg affirms Saveliev, the minister that Russia has designated to guide the peninsula. And, in all ways, it continues without being clear when it will begin to arrive the investment promised by Moscow that faces their own economic crisis, and that it will multiply it with the part Russian pro of Ukraine that has just conquered.
