The current economic state of Russia after a year of war in Ukraine.

What an informative and clear interview! Thanks for posting that. You'd think, though, that there'd be people in those institutions (IMF, etc) that would have considered the points he raised. Why would anyone believe anything Russia put out - they're masters of disinformation/misinformation. Liars. Wouldn't someone have pointed out the issues and points raised by this professor since they hadn't thought of them themselves? Same thing with the media - surely they have experts they could have consulted with to fact-check the numbers Russia put out on their GDP, etc.

Bottom line, the message was heartening. I hope Russians go broke, starve, and riot all across the country.
