Brief presentation

The nature of the Russian-Uranian war has been gradually shifting. While Russia intensifies its offensive and gains more territory, Ukraine has undertaken bolder and more provocative actions, targeting Russian strategic aircraft and railway infrastructure. Both sides are escalating: Russia acts on the belief that Ukraine is militarily doomed and lacks the resources to overturn that, while Ukraine demonstrates it still holds cards in the fight against Russia, targeting it deep behind the front lines.

SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENTS

  • Militarised Nationalisation: Rostec seeks greater control

  • Foreign Companies Under Pressure: Putin is set to strangle foreign IT platforms

  • Protecting Domestic Producers: the state allocates preferential treatment

  • The Case of Roman Abramovich: caught between the West and the Kremlin

  • The Nationalisation of Lesta: the end of duplicity

  • ‘Anti-War’ Scientists: quiet signals of dissent
