flag Russia's economy stagnates under war spending, sanctions, and declining energy revenues, delaying peace talks.

flag Russia's economy is stagnating amid inflation, declining industrial output, and reduced energy revenues, worsened by war-related spending and sanctions. flag Despite a growing budget deficit and higher taxes, military spending consumes nearly 40% of the budget, sustaining defense industries and limiting social unrest. flag Analysts say energy exports to non-Western nations keep the economy "manageable," allowing President Putin to maintain focus on long-term strategic goals. flag With no immediate economic crisis forcing a shift, peace negotiations remain unlikely, and the war in Ukraine is expected to persist for years.
