In this video I discuss the performance of Russia economy in the context of Western sanctions. How to explain that Russia shows a 4% growth? What is the real GDP of Russia, not in dollars but in measurable indicators? What were the effects of sanctions on the Russian economy? Which segments suffered and which prospered as a result? And finally, will Russia succeed in creating an alternative system of payments, undermining the dollar?

His latest book: Flam Vladimir Lenin to Vladimir Putin is featured her, available from Routledhe London publisher and Amazon
