Russian Analytical Digest No.133: Putin 3.0: The Economic Plan
Putin during press briefing
This issue of the RAD examines Putin's economic policies since coming into office for a third term in May 2012. The first article notes that despite Putin's numerous economic reform proposals, his real focus has been on strengthening the power vertical. The second article points to the recent slowdown in Russia's economic growth, suggesting that domestic structural constraints have played a major role in this development, while prospects for a longer term strategic economic development remain uncertain. The third article examines the agricultural sector and finds that Russia is likely to remain an exporter of grain and an importer of meat.
