The Vienna Institute for International Economic Studies (wiiw) has revised its growth forecast for the Russian economy upwards, despite being subject to Western sanctions. Despite these challenges, the economy of Russia is growing more strongly this year compared to the Central and Eastern European EU countries and significantly more robustly than the almost stagnant Eurozone.
