Russia fires economist who warned it cannot sustain a war of attrition
The dismissal followed his warning that Russia would struggle to achieve a prolonged Ukraine campaign, according to CNBC.
Russia reportedly dismissed a top economist after he presented a report warning the country could not win a prolonged war of attrition with Ukraine, CNBC reports.
CNBC Markets, CNBC World, and CNBC Economy all pointed to Andrei Klepach’s firing as part of the fallout from his assessment of Russia’s ability to sustain a long conflict.
The reports frame the move as a response to an internal analysis that challenged official claims that the Russian economy remains strong despite the war.
