Are there any details as to how this was accomplished? It kinda just lists everything that went bad for the Russian economy and then claims that it’s not in a recession without showing a mechanism as to how that was accomplished. As far as I can tell it’s also just sourcing Russian claims on their economy while Russia is currently in a massive propaganda campaign? I could believe they managed to innovate their way out of their problems but it’s an extraordinary claim given the time frame and I’d like to see some evidence for it
