In short: if money from energy exports are indeed not essential to continue the war, and if embargo would really hurt Europe/the West much worse than russia, then why hasn't putin cut off the supply yet?

Impact so far

  • In June 2022, #Russia's GDP was down 4.9% year-over-year, according to the Russian Economy Ministry. via @jakluge

  • Russian revenues from energy export decreased by ~40% in July compared to March (EU: -50%). Still, EU is paying 200 to 300 mln EUR every day! (according to CREA estimates).

  • Russia gas export volumes down 3/4 compared to 2021, but profits are similar due to higher prices. OTOH profits are much lower than late 2021/early 2022, and decline sharply (via @ben_moll):
