→Reaction to war and sanctions
Before 2022, Russia's economy remained tied to [[Western alliance|Western]] supply chains and [[financial]] systems. The shock of [[Russian sanctions|sanctions against Russia]] and [[Multinational corporation|multinational corporate]] exits forced a rapid reorientation. What began as necessity evolved into long-term strategy: [[import]] substitution, domestic [[manufacturing]], and [[technological]] self-reliance. Sectors like [[electronics]], machine tools, and [[pharmaceutical]]s received focused investment. A more resilient economic foundation took shape, much less vulnerable to outside pressure.

[[China]] became its largest trading partner, while ties with [[India], [[Iran]], [[Turkiye]], and [[Africa]]n nations expanded. [[Ruble]]-based settlements, [[energy]] deals, and corridors like the North–South route began reshaping Russia's role in global [[commerce]]. The shift wasn't entirely new, but the [[Special Military Operation]] (SMO) accelerated it—pushing Russia to treat these relationships as central, not secondary.
