Russia vs. Germany: Who Suffers More From Sanctions? (Guest: Ben Aris)

In this international episode of the ‘Tsars. Data. Facts’
podcast, Ben Aris, founder and editor-in-chief of BNE
IntelliNews, talks about the surprising resilience of the Russian
economy in the face of severe Western sanctions. Despite initial
expectations of economic collapse, Russia's GDP has grown over
the past two years. The berlin based analyst explains how Russia
has made adjustments by shifting its exports to Asia,
reorganising its supply chains and boosting domestic production.
He also looks at how the sanctions have affected Europe,
particularly Germany.
