Why Putin Won’t Admit It — Russia Is Losing by Not Winning

Russia isn’t “collapsing in a day” — it’s losing by not winning. In this breakdown I show why the Kremlin can’t admit it: short-term fixes hide long-term losses as energy exports shrink, costs surge, and the war economy strains everything from prices to manpower.

What’s inside:
-The energy math: discounts, reroutes, and why export cash is drying up
-Budget pressure: record defense spend, new taxes/fees, and who pays
-Ruble & inflation: why prices stay sticky and fuel keeps spiking
-Industry & imports: parts shortages, workarounds, and real output
-People factor: mobilization, brain drain, and regional stress

The core argument: why “not winning” in markets and war is losing in the economy
