Ignorance or deliberate disinformation? Obama’s facts about Russia all wrong
Barack Obama has made light of Russia in his latest interview, coming up with four facts to illustrate the poor state of things in the country, which – strangely enough – had little to do with reality.
“I do think it’s important to keep perspective. Russia doesn’t make anything,” Obama said in his interview with the Economist. “Immigrants aren’t rushing to Moscow in search of opportunity. The life expectancy of the Russian male is around 60 years old. The population is shrinking.”
RT has gathered the more recent statistics on the subjects touched upon by the US president.
According to Russia’s Central Bank, the export of products and services has brought Russia $593 billion in 2013.
$355 billion in the figure was due to oil and gas sales, but the remaining $238 million came from other – non-energy – sectors of economy.
In terms of migration, Russia is ranked second in the world and is only surpassed by the US, the United Nations have stated. According to UN estimations, there’s currently 11 million foreigners residing in Russia.
Since the fall of USSR, Russia has been an attractive destination to descendants of former Soviet republics
