Russia is fighting purely at its own expense and they are losing serious money
According to him, the transition of Russia's economy to “war rails” was not painless, but they did it anyway. He says that resources do not last forever, and when a country is at war, they always go into the red.
When will the Russian economy begin to feel the effects of global events? According to our estimates, it will feel it in the summer of 2025. No, this is not a collapse, but a period when financial and economic losses will have a serious impact. Of course, this “will not bring Russia to its knees,” but it will make them think about what the next steps are

The Russian authorities regularly state that the Russian economy is not really suffering from Western sanctions and that time will be on Russia's side in its aggressive war against Ukraine. However, sanctions have already significantly weakened the Russian economy.
