and develop greater states

Otherwise idk you could try to stockpile but that could be pricey and mean you'd need to export a lot in peace time

small nations have their uses

It'd be feasable to export enough to buy up a shitload of Cobalt for example

Easy to store things

most important thing to understand bout autarky is that isn't always most profitable option, that is why for example outsourcing is still a thing

BUT that doesn't change the fact that US or Russia could be 100% autarkic if they wanted to

autarky does not necesserally mean

ban fucking trading

its just mean

minimizing

did anyone

say it

you

fucking

turk

than what is your problem

Russia rn isn't autarkic depending on what you mean by autarky. It's not autarkic in electronics

i dont even know your thesis

buh cant but 100000 cars for population cause no free makret to import cheap resource

so how can I have a problem

Like 100% of Russian naval electronics is imported iirc

russia kinda embraced autarkism after 2014

Food wise yeah

russia is stuck as a majorly resource exporting country

for example they became net exporter of agricultural products after many decades of soviet union which imported grain

yeah

it started lessening the reliance

so you agree on my point

Russia can be autarky right now

russia is building their own chips and such but obviously production is all outsourced

but it's simply not profitable for them

so they dont do it

and the chips are special snowflakes nobody uses

1. reduce consumption in society

2. adopt based neo-spartan social policies

they bought an ARM license a few years ago though

3. become a chad russian empire

boom

the russians

have their own chipsets
