Russia Desperate for Cash - Joe Blogs

In this video I discuss the recent announcement that Russia is looking to privatize businesses and assets that are currently owned by the State. In addition to this I also discuss the recent Nationalisation of businesses owned by overseas investors and how the scale of these seizures is now ramping up. Both of these actions are a reflection of Russia's need for cash as the Economy slows and the War in Ukraine continues.
