Prospects for Russia in the fourth quarter.
Significance
Russia finds itself facing increasing economic uncertainty and geopolitical tensions. However, to generate sustained economic recovery, Moscow needs both a higher global oil price and a resolution to the situation in Ukraine that will lift sanctions. Meanwhile, the Kremlin is extending its domestic political control ahead of next year's elections and recalibrating its international relations east and south.
