In the ranking of countries by the volume of gold and foreign exchange reserves, Russia has risen by one line

Based on the results of nine months of 2022, Russia has moved up one position in the ranking of countries in terms of gold and foreign exchange reserves. Now it ranks fourth in the world.

This information is provided by the agency. RIA News, whose journalists analyzed data from central banks around the world.

In 2022, Russia managed to overtake India. In this country, gold and foreign exchange reserves for the specified period amounted to 532 billion dollars, while Russian reserves reached 540 billion. True, unfortunately, the funds frozen in Europe were included in this amount.

As you can see, the indicators of Moscow and New Delhi are almost the same. This situation has been observed since about 2015.

As in previous years, China is the undisputed leader of the ranking this year. It has gold and foreign exchange reserves worth almost $3,2 trillion. It is followed by Japan with over 1,2 trillion. The third place in the ranking belongs to the Swiss, whose gold and foreign exchange reserves amount to almost 900 billion dollars.

Saudi Arabia is also trying to catch up with India and Russia, taking the next position behind them.

This spring, the head of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation, Elvira Nabiullina, stated that the total amount of frozen Russian funds was approximately $300 billion. Actually, there is no complete certainty that they will ever be returned.

Readers, of course, in the Central Bank, they consider what is not and will not be, because. no one will give the frozen money. The West has been robbing for centuries and will not give anything to anyone.

Russia could have risen even higher, if not for the policy of the pro-Western "market people" Nabiulina and Siluanov with their obligatory execution of the so-called. "BUDGET RULE", dictated to Russia by the IMF (ie, a branch of the US Federal Reserve).

The policy of the notorious "market girl" Nabiulina has not changed since the 1990s. It serves big capital in Russia, and it settles abroad, which is then simply confiscated by the United States in favor of the West and the United States.

And then everything, as with Abramovich! Namely.
Money for special services to the West may be returned to the Russian oligarch, but only if he, for his "blood" wealth from Russia, begins to work visually for the enemies of Russia for FREE!

That's just the rare case of Tatiana, when I absolutely agree with you.
But in general, it’s some kind of shame, India has always been considered a developing country, overtaking India by one line and presenting it as an achievement ... Is there a bottom to the hole where we are sliding into?

[Bolt cutter]

India has always been considered a developing country

And now it is. But there are a LOT of them (10 times more than Russians).

Does it matter?

[Bolt cutter]

Is not it so? Exaggerated, I pay for a thing alone, and they are thrown off by ten. Therefore, the budget, for example, of Iceland is ridiculously small compared to the Indian, but the Icelanders live much more freely.

So we have not overtaken, the liberals are still counting the frozen reserves, but they are no longer there and will not be.

[AlexisT]

30 years ago, India had the largest gold reserves in the world. In practice, the reserves of India alone exceeded the gold reserves of all other countries of the world. So, your sense of shame is in the wrong steppe.

Even now, in such times, liberals continue to harm the country and the people, gold is exported from the country by order of the IMF, there is no cheap and long-term credit for business, salaries, pensions and minimum wages are low, which does not allow increasing sales of goods, money hunger, revenues to exporters were not allowed import into the country, but can be stored there. I wonder if we will see sweeps and a change in the economic and social course or they will destroy the country.

In the Russian Federation, according to the Constitution, there is OFFICIALLY no STATE ideology. But unofficially, it exists - and this is the so-called. "market" ideology with elements of monetarism (i.e. the pursuit of financial profits) of the American economist Milton Friedman, who teaches at the Higher School of Economics and who has been a blacksmith of colonial-administrative personnel in Russia for the United States for 30 years.

And since there is no OFFICIAL STATE ideology in Russia, then its state ideology is UNOFFICIALLY occupied by ANOTHER ideology promoted at the expense of foreign grants, etc. why, that is, as if there were no moral and legal grounds for this.

Russia also has assets frozen by us from unfriendly countries. Maybe the problem will be solved by the exchange of "captive" assets ??? Actually, Siluanov said about this recently.

Kolchak's gold was divided into about 5 parts of which 1 is in the banks of Japan.
The Czech part of the gold was in the bank of the Czech Republic before the occupation
The fate of 4/5 Kolchak's gold is currently unknown

An article about monetary gold, which is stored in bullion in the Russian Federation

[Sergey985]

For these stolen euros, rubles have long been printed. So our Central Bank got out of this situation.

[Evil 55]

It’s clear about China and Switzerland, but where did Japan come from in this ranking ... Did the author mess up with numbers in an attempt to please the desired, necessary and necessary?

[Bingo]

There, in general, the rating is mysterious) Japanese assets, like, in the States? This means that they are not there - the United States simply will not give them away, and by the way, it is not at all a fact that gold and foreign exchange assets are present in the United States at all. No one knows for sure and no one has seen them. It is likely that the gold of Fort Knox has long been on paper, along with everything transferred there for storage by the West

[Sergey Romanchenko]

Truth. Japan has a mania for collecting gold. They've been hoarding it since World War II.
They even somehow ruined a caravan of ships with gold from the Russian Empire.
And still haven't spent a single ingot.
In the 90s you told us the Kuriles, we give you your gold. Yeltsin almost agreed.

[Evil 55]

Naive and unfortunate gnomes.. Gold has never brought health or happiness to anyone in this world..

True, unfortunately, the funds frozen in Europe were included in this amount.

If only by force to take away, otherwise you can safely write off, they themselves will never give back
On the one hand, take it by force to fight with NATO or what? And on the other hand, what, so we'll be in the morning? Once was taken away from the weak, another will be taken away
But this is a question for the future, first you need to deal with Ukraine, and the behavior of the bandits who took the money will largely depend on the result, they will definitely not give anything to the loser, but you can present it as a winner in a completely different way

[Mitia68]

but as a winner, you can present it in a completely different way

Yeah. This is how I present it. With a kick we open the door to Europe and proudly declare to them:
- Well, didn’t you wait? But the great “winner of Ukraine” came to you, in just one year (well, or a little more, in 2-3) we crushed your allegedly invincible Ukrainian army and now you must obey us in everything!

Here, of course, they will all be frightened of us, fall to their knees and immediately return everything to us.

[zloybond]

What do they consider as a plus the money stolen from Russia???? Those. with them????

Or are they no longer taken into account?

[_Ugene_]

True, unfortunately, the funds frozen in Europe were included in this amount.

[Saboteur_Navy]

The media wrote that negotiations were underway on the exchange of frozen assets, one must understand that Russia also froze ...

[_Ugene_]

Russia has frozen the funds of Western investors according to various estimates for 50-100 billion, i.e. 3-6 times less

[yuriy55]

And how much debt does Russia have to Western investors?
Maybe it's time to put forward counter ultimatums?! Or as in that parable about the right and left cheeks: “If you have us in your left pocket, turn your right one”?

[South Ukrainian]

. Actually, there is no complete certainty that they will ever be returned.

They will return as cute, maybe not tomorrow, but the day after tomorrow. In the end, this is not the amount that will help the owners of the printing press, but you will have to put up with Russia.

[Mitia68]

And what is our ZVR?
In dollars? In Euro? In yuan?

The West will donate our dollars and euros to Ukrainians for restoration, this is almost 100%. The yuan is non-convertible and it is not clear how much they really cost, this is decided by the financial authorities of China.

There is only one gold left. And who controls the price of this gold?

[MBRSS]

These are government bonds of Western countries, dollars and euros.

[Mitia68]

These are government bonds of Western countries, dollars and euros.

Yes, our gold reserves are, of course, not cash dollars and euros, but simply entries in the database of Western bond depositories. But what does it change? Our dollars and euros (placed in bonds) are no longer ours, we should forget about them. Yuan is also unreliable.

We have only physical gold left as gold reserves.

[Alexander Tkachenko]

This is the size of approximately 10 annual budgets of the Russian army.
Well, what does saving on your army lead to, events in Ukraine show.

Together with Siluanov, they were to be arrested with complete confiscation and sit in neighboring cells, and there should be NO confidence that they will ever be released!!!

[MBRSS]

As Boglaev rightly said, reserves should be stored not in green wrappers, but in strategic raw materials - precious, non-ferrous and rare earth metals. Yes, they take up a lot of space, unlike numbers in the memory of foreign servers, but much more reliable.

Gold can always be exchanged for dollars, but sometimes it doesn't work the other way around.

[Dmitry Karabanov]

Thanks to these pests - nabiullino-siluanovym, Russia perfectly sponsored its enemies. And, of course, the traitors are back in power - it's so Putin-like!

[nordscout]

Regarding the return of Russia to the so-called. "frozen" $300 billion. Russia can and, even, is obliged to return this $300 billion by presenting CONTRIBUTIVE claims to the EU (NATO) after a complete victory over the Armed Forces of Ukraine. In the case of attempts by the West to "talk" or simply ignore this requirement, to deliver a demonstrative strike (air, rocket and artillery) on certain areas of the EU with a warning that the next strike will be inflicted by tactical nuclear weapons .... Of course, remarkable political will will be required , decisiveness and a complete break with the "aligarhate" in all branches and on all "floors" of power .... Yes, and, of course, to win this difficult war, ironically called "SVO" .....

Will this have a beneficial effect on the national economy or the standard of living of ordinary citizens? Rhetorical question...

Yes, there is no complete certainty, as well as incomplete too ...

[Fangaro]

532 lard.
True, you can not count on 300. And these 300 are actually ours. And for some reason there is no news about at least some attempts to return them to our economy.
It's as if those who made the placement decisions still don't know about it.

[Seraphimamur]

And what difference does it make for an ordinary person how much gold is in the state's stash? Well, we compete with India who has more gold, but the Czechs do not compete with us and they have less gold and live better. You need to look not how much gold the state has, but what is the standard of living of its citizens.

[Shelest2000]

while Russian reserves reached 540 billion. True, unfortunately, the funds frozen in Europe were included in this amount.

You can forget about this money - they will not give it back.
