Russia by the Numbers: The Data CLEARLY Proves It’s Getting Worse

Описание: Today we walk through Russia’s economy by the numbers — not slogans, not propaganda, and not wishful thinking. From rising poverty and business bankruptcies to banking stress, defense spending distortions, and collapsing sectors like property development and autos, the data points in one direction.

This isn’t about rhetoric. It’s about measurable strain — and why Moscow’s economic model is becoming more fragile the longer the war drags on. We’ll also look at the risks of Russia’s shift toward a permanently militarized economy and the long-term gamble behind its so-called “Siberianization” strategy.
