Is he right?
>TUCKER: It's got a much larger economy than Britain's.
>REES-MOGG: No, no, no. It hasn't got a larger economy than Britain. It's got a smaller economy than Britain's. It's got larger military.
>TUCKER: It's got a much larger economy. It has much more wealth and resources and it has a much larger manufacturing sector.
>REES-MOGG: It's GDP is smaller than the UK's.
>TUCKER: I mean, GDP is not the only measure of an economy.
>REES-MOGG: It's a pretty important measure of an economy. Russia is an economic failure. It could have a huge economy but it's got a small economy because it's deeply corrupt and it hasn't managed to use its resources effectively and so although the population of Russia is bigger than that of the United Kingdom very significantly, its GDP per capita is so much lower that the total GDP of Russia is smaller than that of the United Kingdom.
