In an interview with a Russian military blogger, he warned that Russia faced a rerun of the early Yeltsin years. "The real sector of the economy, again with the exception of those working in defence industry in one form or another, is in a very bleak situation because money has become expensive," he explained. "Devaluation is rising, costs are rising, and there is no access to affordable credit. Everyone is facing cash flow gaps, and we are seeing the return of barter deals, just like in the forgotten days of the 1990s."[https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/2132235/russia-economy-1990s-alexey-chadayev-putin]

::'''Summary:''' "Russia faces a 65% probability of a financial crisis within the next 7 years (2026–2032), driven primarily by war spending, depleting reserves, and sanctions. The most likely path (50% chance) is prolonged stagnation leading to a crisis by 2027 (85% conditional risk), while de-escalation or external aid could limit the odds to 30% or less."
