Why Russia:
Russia is located in North Asia and Eastern Europe and borders the North Pacific and Arctic Ocean and Caspian Sea, the Black Sea and the Baltic Sea too. Russia has land borders with 14 Asian and European countries. Russia, country that stretches over a vast expanse of eastern Europe and northern Asia. Once the preeminent republic of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (U.S.S.R.; commonly known as the Soviet Union), Russia became an independent country after the dissolution of the Soviet Union in December 1991.Russia is a land of superlatives. By far the world’s largest country, it covers nearly twice the territory of Canada, the second largest. It extends across the whole of northern Asia and the eastern third of Europe, spanning 11 time zones and incorporating a great range of environments and landforms, from deserts to semiarid steppes to deep forests and Arctic tundra. Russia contains Europe’s longest river, the Volga, and its largest lake, Ladoga. Russia also is home to the world’s deepest lake, Baikal, and the country recorded the world’s lowest temperature outside the North and South poles.
Russia’s economic freedom score is 56.1, making its economy the 113th freest in the 2022 Index. Russia is ranked 43rd among 45 countries in the Europe region, and its overall score is below the regional and world averages. Over the past five years, the Russian economy gained strength in 2017 and 2018, slowed in 2019, and turned negative in 2020. Growth resumed with the recovery of global oil prices in 2021. A five-year trend of slowly expanding economic freedom has faltered. With score increases in labor freedom and monetary freedom outpaced by decreases in rule of law and business freedom, Russia has recorded a 1.0-point overall loss of economic freedom since 2017 and has fallen back into the ranks of “Mostly Unfree” countries. Fiscal health is very strong, but investment freedom and financial freedom are at the levels of least developed countries.
