Dr. Rasmus revisits his article of January 2022 in which he predicted reasons why the US wanted Russia to invade Ukraine and why the invasion of February 24, 2022 happened. The show initially discusses the past year’s sanctions on Russia and its economic effects (and lack thereof) on the Russian economy. Economic indicators of the Russian economy (per the independent source, tradingeconomics.com) are reviewed, showing neither Russia’s currency, its oil production, oil exports, manufacturing, employment levels, business confidence, or inflation have been seriously impacted by the sanctions.  Why the US may now, in its latest sanctions, be preparing to use ‘secondary sanctions’ on India and other countries to enforce failing primary sanctions.  Dr. Rasmus then revisits each of the 10 points of his January 2022 article to verify the 10 reasons: Results indicate the US has ‘succeeded’ in achieving at least 8 of the 10 objectives it sought by luring Russia to invade. (For further analysis see the re-posting of the January 2022 article and a subsequent ‘Revisiting the 10 Reasons..” on Dr. Rasmus’s blog, http://jackrasmus.com this weekend). NEXT WEEK on Alternative Visions: A review of the military and geopolitical objectives and consequences of the Ukraine War after one year.
