Financial tycoon George Soros admitted that he was wrong with the forecast: the oligarch predicted that in 2017 Russia would become bankrupt, but this did not happen. Now Soros predicts the end of the European Union. "This is the European Union - the organization that is on the verge of collapse," - quotes RIA Novosti excerpts from an interview with Soros Financial Times. At the same time, the tycoon was called a resurgent power based on nationalism. A new vision of Russia, represented by the financier, is consonant with the American concept of national security, in which the Russian Federation and China are designated the main rivals of the United States. According to a new document of the White House, Moscow and Beijing challenged Washington's hegemony. Soros stresses the same thing, placing emphasis on the threat that the resurgent Russia is bringing to the European Union. Thus, both Soros and the US authorities are united in the fact that Russia violates the world order, abolishes its "death" and gradually regains its former status as a great power. The financier complains that the time for the final resolution of the Russian issue is missed, and the collapse of the Russian economy will not happen. Soros is not alone in assessing the future of Russia. Previously, Goldman Sachs analysts unexpectedly came out with such an optimistic forecast of the country's economic growth, that it surpassed the reserved forecasts of the Russian government.
