Russia pays crazy money to contract soldiers: where does this money come from Petro Sineokiy

Dictator Putin has established a one-time payment of 400 thousand rubles for those who sign a contract for war against Ukraine. Together with payments separately from the regions, the amounts collected are impressive. But this overheats the Russian economy.

The chief consultant of the National Institute of Strategic Studies Ivan Us told Channel about this, noting that the payments differ depending on the region. In Moscow, for example, an occupier who signed a contract will receive a one-time payment of 1.9 million rubles, and in Sakhalin – about 900 thousand.

Just a few months ago, the figures were significantly lower. Now each region is raising payments to report a larger number of volunteers.

This indicates a lack of people willing to sign a contract. We all understand that if everyone was running for 400 thousand, then the amount of 2 million would not be set. Since the amount is being raised, there are not enough people. And this is an additional burden on the budget. The state and regions are looking for this money and giving it to the economy. The Chairman of the Central Bank of Russia Nabiullina has already spoken about the overheating of the economy, – said Us.

What is the state of the Russian economy

As Us noted, huge sums are spent on one-time payments to Russian contract soldiers. For example, the Russian National Welfare Fund currently contains about 4.6 trillion rubles. Although the amount could well be less, since these are Russian figures.

In June alone, Russia used 453 billion rubles from this fund. If such amounts are spent in the future, the money from the fund will run out.

If 500 billion are used per year, there will be nothing left in 10 months. Will it be enough for 2025?? There is a question. When Russia struck Okhmatdit, everyone noted that the shelling was very brutal. Economists were saying then that Russia had very big problems with the economy. If they fail to force Ukraine to negotiate, an economic disaster could happen there. It could be déjà vu with World War I. There were no major military actions on German territory, but it lost the First World War. Because the economy collapsed, said Us.
