Despite widespread skepticism and the imposition of sanctions aimed at crippling its economy following the invasion of Ukraine two years ago, Russia's economy has shown remarkable resilience. Various reports, including from The Economist, highlight that as an election approaches, President Vladimir Putin appears to have inflation under control, a significant achievement given the circumstances. This economic stability is attributed to Russia's ability to defy not only the sanctions imposed by the U.S. but also the pessimistic forecasts that predicted a dire outcome for the country's financial system. The situation has prompted discussions on the effectiveness of the sanctions and the underestimated robustness of the Russian economy.
