    A very interesting article, particularly in respect of the massive percentage of Russia’s GDP that now comes from oil (and presumably gas), and the dramatic rise in many people’s personal income, without other parts of Russia’s ecomomy playing their part.
    However, it’s rather gloomy tone seems based on ‘If the oil bonanza stops….’ Well one would hope that things will level out a bit, but stop. How can it?
