🚨 GOLD DRAIN ALERT: Russia’s Safety Net Is Shrinking Fast 🇷🇺💰
Over the past 3 years, Russia has quietly sold off ~71% of its gold reserves from the National Wealth Fund
📉 From 554.9 tons (May 2022) → just 160.2 tons (Jan 2026), now held in anonymous central bank accounts 🏦
💱 Total liquid reserves (gold + yuan): 4.1T rubles
⚠️ Analysts warn another 60% could be withdrawn this year if conditions hold—leaving reserves dangerously thin 💥
Less buffer means tougher choices ahead: infrastructure, social spending, even defense 🧱🪖
The big question: how long can the spending last? ⏳🔥
