Iluzia rezilienței de la Moscova. Economia Rusiei crește artificial, pe spatele fabricilor de armament • Newsweek România

Despite reported economic growth, independent economists warn that Russia's economy is artificially boosted by military spending, risking a severe downturn under sanctions. Official data shows a 1.3% GDP increase in Q2 2023, driven by government military expenditures and temporary oil revenue boosts. However, high interest rates and civil industry weaknesses suggest unsustainable growth. The current growth rate is significantly slower than previous years, raising concerns about long-term stability.
