Original Note:
The Kremlin’s figures cannot be trusted. Moscow's goal is to argue that sanctions do not work, so it communicates only on cherry-picked numbers of dubious quality that seem to reinforce this narrative. Also, entire data sets have become classified since the start of the war https://foreignpolicy.com/2023/03/13/russia-economy-sanctions-gdp-war-ukraine-disinformation-statistics/ https://www.osw.waw.pl/en/publikacje/analyses/2023-05-24/credibility-russian-economic-statistics-a-growing-problem
