What does "The Economy" mean?
From a Bloomberg RUSSIANAGGRESSION hate piece:
“We’re in for a long stretch of lethargy and apathy in domestic policy,” said Andrey Kolesnikov, a senior associate at the Carnegie Moscow Center. “Putin likes to move armies and borders, but he’s not interested in the economy. He’s the only one who can make a decision, so no decision will be made.”Hmm. "The Economy." What does "The Economy" mean?
This year, Putin will probably use his keynote speech to deliver a politically neutral message to avoid further flaming tensions with the U.S. and its allies, the people said. He’ll also seek to reassure his compatriots that the worst of the fallout from sanctions and lower oil prices are over and that Russia has emerged stronger than before, they said. That kind of patriotic talk isn’t what business owners such as billionaire Roman Avdeev say they want to hear.Ah, now I see. "The Economy" is "what treasonous billionaires want to hear." Wouldn't it be nice if US/UK/EU had leaders who weren't interested in "The Economy"? Not gonna happen, but I can always daydream.
