Russian economy growth over 3% To surpass Japan in 3 to 4 years., page-8

US got a less than 20% military budget and they mostly dont get destroyed and sold elsewhere.

Nearly 40% (some say 60%) of Russian budget goes to military and mostly get dissipated. Almost all tanks stockpile since USSR, best planes & ships gone, Russians will have to stave to replace them. Forget GDP growth.

By the way, Duran is a disgraced lawyer, not an economist.
