As Russia’s war in Ukraine enters its third year, the economic toll is mounting—and 2025 could be the tipping point.
Economic Strain:
The Russian ruble has lost over 50% of its value, and inflation is soaring.
Oil exports, a critical revenue source, have dropped to $64 per barrel—a sharp decline from previous highs.
Sanctions Bite Harder:
SWIFT bans, frozen oligarch assets, and mass corporate exits are choking trade and investment.
Factories are operating at just 81?pacity, with labor shortages fueled by mass conscription and heavy war losses.
Uncertain Future:
With 800,000 casualties and mounting economic woes, will sanctions push the Kremlin to rethink its war strategy?
2025 could mark a turning point for Russia’s economy—and its role on the global stage.

00:00For nearly three years, Russia has waged a devastating war in Ukraine.
00:04Bombed cities, displaced millions, and countless lives lost,
00:08the cost has been immeasurable for Ukrainians.
00:11But now, the cost may be catching up to Russia.
00:14In response to Russia's aggression,
00:16the world united to impose unprecedented sanctions.
00:20Banks removed from SWIFT, oligarchs' assets frozen,
00:24and thousands of companies pulling out of Russia.
00:27Yet, for years, the Kremlin managed to weather the storm,
00:30bolstering defense spending and propping up the economy.
00:33But now, cracks are showing.
00:36By late 2024, the Russian ruble lost over half its value.
00:41Oil exports, once a lifeline, are dropping, down to $64 per barrel.
00:47Inflation is surging, and even Putin had to admit the economy is overheating.
00:52With 800,000 casualties from the war and mass conscription,
00:56factories are running at just 81% capacity.
00:59A labor shortage is choking production,
01:02and Western companies have abandoned the Russian market.
01:05The signs are clear.
01:07Sanctions are biting harder than ever.
01:09Rising inflation, a weak ruble, and declining trade spell trouble for Russia.
01:14Will this pressure force the Kremlin to rethink its war?
01:17The year ahead will test Putin's resolve and Russia's economy like never before.
01:22Stay tuned as we follow the story.
01:24Because 2025 might just be the year Russia feels the full freeze.
