Russia’s inflation rate has surpassed 7%, forcing the Bank of Russia to maintain interest rates at 16%. The Ruble has also performed badly. https://www.foreignaffairs.com/russian-federation/putins-unsustainable-spending-spree https://www.google.com/finance/quote/RUB-USD?sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjI3r25wNWDAxVXh_0HHf7WCNYQmY0JegQIBRAv&window=1Y https://www.businessinsider.com/russia-economy-defense-military-war-spending-drains-resources-other-sectors-2024-1
