Russia: Strategic developments in Moscow
The possibility of 'isolation' of Kaliningrad in the Russian Federation is primarily discussed in the context of the war, but the cessation or restriction of communication will have economic consequences. Kaliningrad Oblast is separated from the main territory of Russia by Lithuania, so the region's economy depends on how goods and raw materials are delivered to and from there. Before the full-scale war, the main cargo channel for Kaliningrad Oblast was the railway. After 2022, Russia began to shift part of the transportation to the sea. As a result, over several years, sea transport has transformed from an additional route into the main one. However, established sea communication does not mean that the region's economy is protected from transport isolation. ➡️ More details - in the material of 'Novaya-Evropa'. 📍 Read without VPN
