The Communist revolution was a Western coup - revenge on the Czars by the Rothschilds. Those behind the coup were hand picked by the banking elite. 
Yeltsin was an alcoholic - Lord of the Drinks. He reigned during the 1990's - this was a terrible, terrible time in Russia. Russia was collapsing - a good path towards a vassal state of the usual suspects. 

The Belt and Road is the master plan for the coming years. Germany is certainly turning towards the East - building plants in Russia - starting towards integration into the Belt and Road. Russia was a hell hole post dissolution of the USSR - people were starving. The country was devoured by the likes of Abramovich. The US sanctions hurt Russia but alternatives were formulated. The sanctions have hurt the EU - a lot of agricultural produce was exported to Russia. Significant attempts were made to destroy the ruble. Naturally Russia has distanced herself for the USD - in reality she does not have any Treasuries and a lot less USD. Both China and Russia have massive gold reserves - massive - far larger than the official numbers. 
Russia works hand in glove with China. This pair are the rival to US hegemony. We are not going to hear anything good about this pair - funnily enough we don't hear anything good about Russia and China. The controlled media project the bad guy role which rotates between them. Whilst Western powers waste $trillions on war and the military industrial complex - banking cabal steals whatever is left, Russia and China are building positive relationships around the world, creating systems outside the Western banking USD system.
The conclusion of this is obvious. i see the Deagal.com 2025 forecast (Western military website) puts China, India and Russia in the top three countries for GDP in 2025. http://www.deagel.com/country/forecast.aspx - i see Russia is ahead of Finland.
The site says The majority of the economic and demographic data used in the making of the forecasts is widely available by institutions such as the CIA, IMF, UN, USG, etc.
Something horrible is in store for the UK - the population is projected to collapse and the relative income of the people to fall to less than a quarter of the current amount. The implosion seems too much but i have wondered looking out the car window whilst travelling around - what are people doing? - how are people making money? i remember a time when British industry was very active and saw it gutted by mad cat strikes, incompetent management, under investment and entry into the Common Market. 

If 'no-one knows' the economics in Russia then no-one can comment on them. That 'no-one knows' the economics is not a reason for Russia to buy gold - nor China. Russia is reported as being one of the few countries that is not in a net deficit. Many nations in the West are in reality bankrupt. Those are the economics.
i take it your hometown is in Finland or is it Russian?
Do Russians pay their bills with USD and go to the shops and pay in USD?
i would often buy French cheese when i was in England and now buy English cheese in Spain. 
i hear repeated from Western sources that US warships have been turned off by electronic jammers - There were several reports that many of the missiles in the last allied air strike on Syria were jammed and didn't go off or missed. Perhaps that is fake news - everything in the Western media is fake news so it would be like for like.

The Fed has been pushing USD into the banking system over the last few days b/c the Saudis withdrew funds following the oil refinery attacks. There was already a liquidity shortage b/c the US Treasury is issuing large amounts of Treasuries but foreigners don't want them - foreigners have not been buying US debt for several years. The bonds are left on the books of the underwriting banks which is soaking up dollars and they are struggling to get rid of them. The combination of the two has resulted in a shortage of cash - the Fed invented $billions at the click of a mouse, at a keystroke to ease the situation. This is a sticking plaster - foreigners are not financing the US debt and there is increasing de-dollarisation.  

There are quite a few factors in play. The ECB was supporting US Treasuries - this recently stopped. Foreigners aren't buying Treasuries and in reality haven't been for several years - they are now in reality junk bonds. Treasuries are still selling but the cash to buy them is being sucked out of the US financial system, which causes a liquidity problem. Then something else crops up like the Saudis pulling cash out of the banks following the oil refinery attacks and Houston we have a problem. 
The US government has become completely unaccountable with FASAB 56 - "national security concerns now override the need for public financial transparency"  The missing $21 trillion or however much it really is, can no longer be questioned. The need to pull the curtain over the accounting books suggests it has been done to hide wanton criminality and a system teetering on the edge of the abyss.   https://www.thesiriusreport.com/economics/fasab-56-dollar-us-treasury/
All the data is fake - this is not the greatest ever economy. It is one that was gutted and ran on credit - credit the world is no longer willing to provide.
Shale oil is bankrupt and declining - the banks having put $2 trillion in - where did those $trillions come from? 
i hear US based pundits talking - they are in denial, paid to talk sh1t or under a delusion imagining the USD will go on forever. The Petro-dollar is dying - rapidly. Russia has de-dollarised - sanctions achieved that. Putin intends to destroy the dollar. Saudi is selling increasing amounts of oil in EUR and CNY. Russia is buying oil from Iran in EUR and then reselling it.
Once upon a time the US would introduce democracy with regime change when states did not play ball - not been very successful lately - we see the absolute failure of a coup in Venezuela - right in America's backyard. Venezuala is under Russian and Chinese control. Iran is in the same fold. Iran controls a big slice of Iraq. Saudi is turning East and will break free. Trump says he has rebuilt the US military - it is the strongest in the world. The best in does is guard poppy fields. Russia is untouchable - Putin has warned the US it could be incinerated in 30 minutes - Russian technology is decades ahead - the expensive US defence system the Saudis bought didn't do them much good - Putin has offered the Saudis the S400 and security. The Russians have turned US warships in floating junk - caused them to crash into other ships - every ICBM could be triggered as their nose cones come out of the silos - America could incinerate itself - no need for the hypersonic Russian missiles that sit off America's coastline. 
The US can no longer bully the world to use the dollar and the world is at an accelerating rate avoiding the dollar. The Petro-dollar will die and with it the fuel that enables the Western cabal to wreck havoc. 

1000 tonnes inflows of gold on paper - do these inflows of gold and silver actually take place? For example with SLV and GLD? Doubtful.

Sorry you are absolutely correct - i keep doing this - i think in minting units which are 100g - my mistake. 
i don't know if you are on the Telegram thread - there is a lot of chatter on there - there is some KAU/KAG being minted - so some is being bought - a few KVT's being sold - some ETH changing hands. Generally very quite - there was a site login problem last night which got sorted. We have a stack of suggestions coming from the Ambassador's thread. The Community forum is now open to the public - a separate website set up over a year ago. There is some interesting bits and pieces there. https://kinesis.community/
Glad the start is slow and gradual - it will allow the teething problems to be sorted before the debit card is released and the roll out begins and there really is 6.2 tonnes.

Launch day today - the masses are on Telegram waiting for the announcement - they say there will be a new look website today and the Exchange will kick off. 
About 1500 more KVT's issued today so probably there will be a little over 10k unsold KVT's of the 210k KVT's. A good deal of KAU and KAG's minted so there is just short of 6.25 tonnes of gold (more than the reserves of Ireland) and 11.25 tonnes of silver backing the present coins - this should ramp up significantly when the Exchange opens and minting steps up a few gears.

Poor printout in NFP - as one would predict from the smash of gold and silver - price taken down ahead of poor figures -  price rebounded strongly - we would have gone through $20 if the usual suspects had not taken price down. Some people say the market is not manipulated. Other people don't have blinkers on.
