  https://theins.ru/opinions/inozemtsev/255405 The final countdown of the Putin era. Vladislav Inozemtsev on the consequences of mobilization for the economy and the Kremlin     In recent years, all and sundry, with or without reason, have used the popular formula that "we woke up in another country."   The resetting of the terms of the Kremlin usurper, the arrest of Alexei Navalny, the recognition of the "independence" of the DPR and LPR, and the Russian invasion of Ukraine - all these events received the same similar response.   Today, however, it is probably worth recognizing that none of them deserved such an assessment: the mobilization announced on September 21 became a milestone that truly divided modern Russian history into “before” and “after”, an event that began the final countdown of the Putin era. I will not talk about the moral side of the issue - to assess whether the genocide of the Russian people that has begun will change the situation on the U...

  https://finance.yahoo.com/news/russias-economy-die-winter-because-174907091.html   Yvonne Lau September 27, 2022 · 5 min read In the seven months since Russia invaded Ukraine, some have argued that the international sanctions levied against Russia weren’t strong enough as Russians continued to travel, shop, party—and generally lead a normal life. Now, an action by Russian President Vladimir Putin could be the catalyst that brings the war home to Russians and plunges the economy into real catastrophe. Last Wednesday, Putin announced a “partial” mobilization —Russia’s first mobilization decree since World War II—ordering 300,000 able-bodied men aged 18 to 30 in the military reserves to fight in Ukraine, sparking widespread protests across the country. “I consider it necessary to make [this] decision, which is fully appropriate to the threats we face…to protect our motherland…to ensure the safety of our people and people in the liberated territories,” Putin said las...

  https://www.railway.supply/en/russian-railway-is-on-the-verge-of-collapse/ Russian railway is on the verge of collapse 02.09.2022 The threat of a collapse in freight traffic is growing at Russian Railways due to a shortage of bearings for heavy-duty wagons, reports Railway Supply citing sprotyv.info. The so-called innovative wagons, which can carry 8 tons more than conventional ones, were left without spare parts after sanctions hit Russia over the invasion of Ukraine and foreign manufacturers began to leave the Russian market. By the end of August, about 10,000 freight cars were taken out of service due to the lack of bearings and the impossibility of repair. In total, more than 200,000 wagons are at risk, estimates the National Transport Company (NTC), one of the largest operators of innovative wagons.
