    Since 2022, there have been wildly divergent predictions made about the way the Russian economy would hold up under pressure.

    Now, deep into Q3 2024 I want to have a closer look at the Russian economy, sanctions, and the risks it faces. And for a change in perspective, we will do it primarily using Russian data.
