Липсиц: ГОТОВЬТЕСЬ К СТРАШНОМУ! БЮДЖЕТ РУХНУЛ: ЦБ НАПЕЧАТАЛ 3 ТРЛН! В КРЕМЛЕ БОЯТСЯ ДЕФОЛТА И КРАХА

In a special stream, renowned Russian economist Igor Lipsits discusses the country’s worsening economic situation, highlighting the budget deficit, rising VAT, and potential default. He critiques the Kremlin’s denial of the crisis, noting that the economy has been in a technical recession for two consecutive quarters and that the government’s proposed fiscal measures—including tax hikes and privatization—aim to fund defense and the war effort. Lipsits warns that attempts to freeze or confiscate citizens’ savings could collapse the financial system, and he calls for a harsh austerity regime to prevent a collapse of the civil economy.
