The production of tanks, armored vehicles, and metal products collapsed &#8211; in September, a decrease of 6-20%,&quot; Kovalenko reported.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, according to Kovalenko, Rosstat is hiding the scale, but it is already officially known that GDP growth has stopped, budget revenues have fallen by 21%, and the deficit is five times larger than planned.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;From January 1, the Kremlin is raising VAT to 22%, taking away benefits from small businesses, effectively taking money from the middle class to finance the war. Prices for chicken and pork are rising by 30%, entrepreneurs are closing down, and Putin and Patrushev no longer control the situation even in the food market,&quot; said the head of the CCD.<\/p>\n<p>Kovalenko also added that &quot;Gazprom&quot; shifted losses to the population, the Russian Ministry of Finance is cutting expenses, and new US sanctions against &quot;Rosneft&quot; and &quot;Lukoil&quot; are closing the Indian market for Russia. The only buyer remains China, but on October 30, in Busan, Trump and Xi will discuss Russia&#039;s future without its participation.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;When a warring country cannot even maintain its military-industrial complex, it&#039;s not just a crisis &#8211; it&#039;s a financial collapse. To avoid the role of China&#039;s eternal colony, Russia has only one way out &#8211; to end the war and save the economy,&quot; Kovalenko concluded.<\/p>\n<h2>Addition<\/h2>\n<p>Shares of &quot;Rosneft&quot; and &quot;Lukoil&quot; led the fall of &quot;blue chips&quot; on the Moscow Exchange after blocking US sanctions. In two days, the total capitalization of the companies decreased by 424 billion rubles, or $5.2 billion.<\/p>\n<p>The administration of US President Donald Trump has prepared additional sanctions that could be applied to key sectors of the Russian economy if Putin continues to delay ending Russia&#039;s war in Ukraine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the first time in three years, the Russian military-industrial complex has ceased to be an economic driver, according to the National Security and Defense Council&#039;s Center for Countering Disinformation.
