Cheltuielile militare ale Rusiei ating un record istoric în 2026

Russia is preparing for a prolonged war in Ukraine, with military spending expected to reach $199 billion by the end of 2026, significantly exceeding initial plans. The conflict has become the most expensive for Russia since World War II, with substantial military losses reported. President Putin has intensified military operations following unsuccessful negotiations with the US, indicating a willingness to escalate the conflict further. Increased defense spending suggests a commitment to ongoing military actions, including attacks on critical infrastructure. Tensions with Europe are rising, with concerns about a potential direct conflict with NATO in the future.
