Putin’s war did not only destroy Ukraine. It quietly made Russian life smaller.

In this episode, Elvira Bary audits what Russians actually lost after four years of Putin’s full-scale war against Ukraine. Russia did not only lose soldiers, money, and military prestige. Ordinary Russians lost access to the world, normal travel, foreign media, familiar brands, reliable routes, working bank cards abroad, affordable credit, European energy markets, arms customers, and the educated people who could have built the country’s future. The Kremlin calls this sovereignty, resilience, and import substitution. But behind the slogans is a shrinking life — more expensive, more isolated, more censored, and much harder to escape.
