Russian President Vladimir Putin has sensationally claimed that the U.S. and the Eurozone manipulated global markets during the pandemic.
Speaking during his closing press conference of this year’s BRICS summit in Kazan, Putin said that the Western economies ‘printed money’, or expanded their money supply, in order to buy up global supplies of food, medical equipment and COVID vaccines - which have since passed their expiration dates and subsequently been ‘destroyed’.
Putin believes this to be the major cause of global inflation, rather than the ongoing war in Ukraine - which most mainstream economists think is the main driver.
