Article from Russia Today (RT) - 27th November 2022:
China’s gold imports from Russia rising – media.
Russian exports of precious metals to China remain relatively small.
Imports of Russian gold into China in October amounted to 2.16 tons, marking a seven-year high, business daily RBK reported this week, citing data from China’s General Administration of Customs.
In monetary terms, Russian exports of gold in raw and semi-manufactured forms to China reportedly doubled, having totaled $124.6 million.
In the ten months through October, Chinese gold imports from Russia amounted to 5.72 tons, which is 1.9 times more than in the same period in 2021. In monetary terms, deliveries in January-October soared 1.8 times to $330 million.
Despite the significant surge, Russian gold producers are still far down on the list of China’s biggest suppliers. Switzerland shipped $26.5 billion-worth of gold to China during the first ten months of the current year, while Canada’s exports amounted to $9.7 billion. South African sales of the precious metal to China totaled $7.7 billion, while Australia and Germany exported $7.2 billion and $775 million respectively.
Russia’s total exports of gold amounted to 302.17 tons in 2021, the country’s Customs Service reported earlier this year. According to the data from Chinese customs, only 3.98 tons were delivered to China back then.
Shipments of Russian gold to China have soared to a record high this year mostly due to the previous drop in deliveries that was linked to Covid-related restrictions, Chairman at Gold Producers' Union Sergey Kashuba told the media, adding that Russian producers stockpiled a lot of gold because of lockdowns.
The expert highlighted that supplies to China were not redirected from Western markets, explaining that buyers there purchased gold in the form of bullion, which is not typical for Chinese importers.
In March, the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) suspended the membership of six Russian precious metals refiners, saying that they would no longer be accepted as Good Delivery by the London Bullion market until further notice. The step came amid the sanctions imposed on Moscow over its military operation in Ukraine.

SUPPORTING SCOTT RITTER
I've been listening to Scott Ritter describe how things are for him and I suspect have been for him for quite some time now.
He has been doing a LOT of unpaid work with a great many interview requests coming in that he has been ready and willing to agree to. But the work where receives some pay for have suffered due to this, being left until the wee small hours of the night to complete work on.
Scott, I think you will agree, has been one of the most influential voices out there on Russia and Ukraine.
I was moved by Scott's words to take an annual subscription to his Substack account that he runs in coordination with his colleague on 'U.S. Tour of Duty', Jeff Norman. This is the main way that Scott recommends to help him with finances with which to upgrade his delivery of comment on Russia and Ukraine, via a better microphone etc. and perhaps the creation of a recording studio in his basement to create a more professional and impressive look. To invest in these things he would like to be sure that this has a viable financial future.
Would you also like to help by subscribing at one of the various levels to Scott's Substack account? I hope so. If so the link is here:
Below you'll find the edited part of the video where Scott talks of his commitments to get the facts out on events in Ukraine and of the finances that would come in handy to enhance their delivery:

VICTORY BELONGS TO RUSSIA: IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME
Each day that passes makes a conclusive Russian victory in the Donbass and beyond more certain. As Russia bolsters her forces, and weaponry, those of Ukraine decrease. Russian forces gain ready access to rest and recuperation as troop numbers increase. The increasingly exhausted and demoralised Ukrainian troops have an ever decreasing prospect of such respite. This situation is likely to bring them to complete breakdown as Russia unleashes the firepower of the more modern and advanced weaponry that is arriving with the newly mobilised Russian troops.
The various Ukrainian offensives are now weak when confronted by the reinforced Russian lines. A few futile efforts achieve quite miserable results before fire reigns down on the Ukrainian troops and they are forced back to their starting positions.
And now, all this being said, we have arrived at the wet, and later, freezing conditions where these pathetic Ukrainian forces will be subject to myriad forms of abject misery with death and injury all around them while they lie sodden or frozen, abandoned to their fate by Kiev.
The pitiable young and old of Ukraine have been frogmarched to their deaths as cannon-fodder while the bestial elites of the collective West urge their "president" to add more to their number there at the gates of Hell and their doom. We must feel for the majority of them as they are not the Nazis we revile, in most part they are decent men, fathers, sons, brothers, husband and uncles, who no doubt saw through the coup of 2014 for what it was. But sadly, their fate seems sealed.
Nothing will stop Russia now. Every factor favours them. Victory will be Russia's. In Donbass and beyond and in due course across the world.
Victory belongs to Russia: It is now only a matter of time.
