💬 "This means that our so-called sacred state capitalism will find it difficult to maintain everything as it is: no cost-cutting, no elimination of non-core assets, and continuing to pursue large projects without the necessary expertise and without the involvement of private enterprises."

Deripaska added that this will also make it "harder for the Russian government to pressure private businesses," with capital "starting this year becoming the main source of contributions to the federal budget."
