In russia’s Regions – a Massive Shortage of Vaccines Against Chickenpox and Other Diseases
The irony is that in the midst of epidemics, the authorities are calling on citizens “not to panic” and to get vaccinated responsibly – but there are no vaccines. In the best traditions of a “superpower”, russians have received not protection from diseases, but queues, refusals, and empty shelves in clinics. They are advised to take care of their health, but in fact are left alone with epidemics – without choice and without medications.

Address by the President to the Participants of the 71st Annual Session of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly
We have started making interceptor drones to stop “shaheds,” and we have mobile strike groups and aircraft. But russian strikes are mixed and use many cruise and ballistic missiles.

By the End of the Year, russia Will Depend on Fuel Imports at the Level of up to 60%
Having banned petrol exports in September, the government of the rf attempted to stabilize the situation, but this move only exacerbated the crisis. It was foreign sales that made it possible to compensate for chronic losses and partially finance the modernization of the industry.
