Since the beginning of the full-scale war, the Russian Federation has spent more than $18 billion on missile attacks and drone attacks on the territory of Ukraine, which is more than 1.8 trillion rubles.
This was reported by The Center for Countering Disinformation.
โ This money could be used to develop the regions, build schools, hospitals and infrastructure. However, the priorities of the Russian regime are terror and destruction, which leaves its own regions in poverty, the report says.
The Russian Federation spends huge amounts of money on the war against Ukraine
Thus, St. Petersburg's expenses in 2024 amount to 1.3 trillion rubles ($13 billion), which is equivalent to 1.38 years of the city's budget. For example, the amount spent on strikes on Ukraine is equal to more than four years of budgets of the Sverdlovsk region or the budgets of the Krasnodar region of the Russian Federation for 3.5 years.
