The events that have taken place in the information space in recent weeks, without reservation, are worthy of novels not only by the Strugatsky brothers, but also by Orwell. When reading a news feed, sometimes you want to pinch yourself and wake up right away. But no, it won’t work to leave what you see in the world of dreams. Welcome to a new world, radically different from what you’re used to. Seemingly unshakable rules turned into ruins in the blink of an eye, and the news… Yes, a “resurrection” of AZLK is worth something! And this against the background of the exodus of Renault, VW, the cessation of the supply and production of Mercedes and much more!
However, it is too early to turn off the lights. As well as talking about full-fledged import substitution, which frankly is impossible in some areas and will take decades of investment in others. Take the same car industry: how much Chinese aid does not come, it is impossible to take and do. This is years and years, even if someone agrees to undergo a series of sanctions and censors and sell an entire factory of stamps, drawings and conveyor belts to Russia. One would like to remind those in power of selling the same SsangYong for a penny.
So what about the light? But he is seen at the end of the tunnel. The fact is that at the Eurasian Economic Forum, Vladimir Putin has clearly outlined tomorrow’s trends: import substitution is not a panacea, and Russia will not solve it alone. The interpretation of this statement is quite simple: we must restore our car industry, we have already learned from bitter experience, but no one will also refuse imports. We will import as before. But how to import is already a question to which there is currently no answer. Actually, we don’t know him.
