@dwnews: Russia has started selling gold from its reserves. It is not a sign of imminent collapse, but it does show Moscow is relying more heavily on the financial cushion built to withstand sanctions and war. #dwbusiness

UK Dad Trader | Paddy :

at least they got a half decent price for it

Paul Doroshenko 🇨🇦 :

Who is buying?

bro :

Russian budget deficit 2,5%, Britain, France 5%, Poland 6,5%, USA 6%, Ukraine 20%🤔

Trucker_Dre :

It’s pretty funny how they’re focusing on Russian economic woes and not their own. Germany, the EU powerhouse in deep recession.

Nam Phuong 2K :

Russia economy running on Oil and Gas though ?

Donald :

So what? They sold 44 tons while mining over 300 tons of gold a year. At this point DW news is running out of propaganda and doing everything to make Russia look bad and it’s embarrassing

PATO 🪙 :

He sold when the price was high, trust me they will buy it back when the price drops 😏, everything shouldn’t be propaganda news… France does it too but nobody talks about it 😂😂

CAPITAL F@XS :

and the sad part about that gold? most of it belongs to Romania

DW News :

The gold sale reveals that Russia’s readily spendable budget has shrunk significantly since the invasion of Ukraine began.

Monkey :

Rubbish 😂😂😂

Ben walker :

Europe is suffering not Russia 🇷🇺

Eric :

diesel soul :

Mac :

Berserk 驳诉 :

Has Ukraine regained territory?

user99624558182266 :

Hide the money yall there's poor people around!

🇺🇦 🇦🇺Adam 🔱 :

Mr. Blacc :

So bad guys getting away with doing stupid shit= making their countries worse off. Sounds about right.

Roshan :

XaoS :

I remember when DW was spreading gossip about Putin being deadly sick 😁

Yebo360 :

it's kinda funny that at the same time we get gold plated statues in Washington 😂

Usyrix :

when is the Apocalypse?

Richie :

They've been doing this since at least last year, we know because Hong Kong has fairly open customs, we can see record amounts were going to China.

orbtransit9 :

I asked AI and it's equivalent to a cube 4 meters on each side. That is 44 metric tons of gold.
