War economy hits everyday Russians - Eastern Express - TVP WORLD

[TexasTowelie]

Russia’s war is no longer something ordinary citizens can ignore – it is now disrupting their income, mobility, and personal plans. With rising prices, mass layoffs, refinery shutdowns, and Ukrainian drone attacks, the war has firmly entered everyday life. The Kremlin’s answer is not de-escalation, but a deeper shift toward a permanent war economy. This episode of Eastern Express examines how the economic, infrastructural, and technological squeeze is eroding the illusion of “normal life” inside Russia. The bubble has burst, and the consequences can no longer be hidden.
