PROTESTS IN RUSSIA: BLACKOUTS IN KRASNODAR, ROSTOV, DAGESTAN Vlog 750: War in Ukraine
Video Summary
Protests in Russia? Yes, it’s a rare sight, but occasionally they do happen. The latest wave is in the Russian city of Kadar, where people are taking to the streets to demand electricity after prolonged blackouts. These outages aren’t a result of Ukraine’s attacks, but rather the dying infrastructure in Russia. Interestingly, this is similar to what President Putin claimed about cryptocurrency mining causing electricity problems, a notion many people find absurd.
In contrast, Ukraine has experienced regular blackouts, but they’re typically limited to a few hours, not 24 hours. The situation in Russia is dire, with areas like rural villages struggling to access basic services. The dire state of Russia’s infrastructure is another reason for Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, a distraction from the problems at home.
Some are even reporting issues with the Rostov nuclear power plant, which could be causing more widespread blackouts. So, while protests in Russia are rare, the situation is getting more desperate, with people taking to the streets to demand better services, and some even resort to mining cryptocurrencies, like Bitcoin, to try and make ends meet.
