Today’s Russian papers report on Russia’s economic problems: “Stagnation in industry” & “Investment downturn significantly worse than expected.” But it's not just Russia that has problems, thinks one paper: “The destruction of the world order can't be stopped.” #ReadingRussia

A brave voice of reason, and the idea of perhaps 1,500 dissidents, recalls to me the old Soviet Union where speaking out on any subject carried the same threats. Thanks again for the interview @bbcstever.bsky.social. Dmitry is right the war has become normalised even here in the West.
