If you want true status of Russian economy, read Russian Reserve bank chief Naubullina. If you do, you wouldn't spray such garbage on a public forum. She tried to resign a few times Putin wont lent her go and for good reasons wouldn't touch her either . Nabullina strategies keep Russian economy going but its based on the sovereign funds she is eating in to. For how long?
Russian GDP numbers showing good on paper due to military production. However consumer GDP is in red. No one knows real numbers as they go through Kremlin and get changed. Russian military budget is ~ 50% of total. Putin had 600 bill $ sovereign funds at the start of the war. 300 frozen in western banks the rest he is propping up the military budget. Most of that get burnt in Ukraine.
Now they have started burning down inside Russia as well. No need of a war to defeat the enemy.
