According to the Chairman of the State Duma, there is expected to be a recession in the eurozone economies within six months: “This will be a recession — the first since the coronavirus pandemic.”
Vyacheslav Volodin recalled the article from one of the American publications: “Washington expected that leaving of Western companies would help strangle the Russian economy. But the Russian leadership had other plans and turned the boycott of Western companies into benefits for the state.”
“Western companies that left our country have lost more than $103 billion. This money is in Russia. By the way, at the end of the year, our country’s GDP growth will be 3.5%,” concluded the Chairman of the State Duma.
