Quick Glance: The IMF raises its projection for Russia again again: Putin's economy is steadily growing, whereas Germany's GDP is collapsing.
  • The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has upped its outlook for Russia's economy again again.

  • According to the IMF, Russia's GDP will rise by 0.7 percent this year.

  • Russia's growth would thus be comparable to that of the eurozone as a whole, and significantly stronger than that of Germany, which the IMF views as trailing the rest of the eurozone with minus 0.1 percent.

  • It had lowered its short-term projection to minus 2.3 percent in the fall, then unexpectedly turned positive in January.

  • The IMF has now added 0.4 percentage point of growth.

  • THE SNP has challenged the Conservative administration to deliver an inflation-busting rise in NHS and school expenditure to avert a winter crisis.

  • With fixed devolved budgets facing real-term cuts from Westminster, the Scottish and Welsh governments have led demands for the UK Government to provide the additional funding needed to avoid strike action and maintain frontline services.

  • The SNP's Westminster leader, Ian Blackford MP, said ahead of the UK Budget: "The Tory government has imposed real terms cuts to devolved budgets at the worst possible time – when public services are already under pressure from the impact of Brexit , Covid-19 and rising costs."

Quick Glance: IMF lowers global growth prediction for next year, warning that "the worst is yet to come"
  • According to the research, the Ukraine war continues to "powerfully destabilize the global economy," generating a "severe" energy crisis in Europe as well as destruction in Ukraine.

  • In its Global Financial Stability Report, released Tuesday shortly after the World Economic forecast, the IMF also mentioned a "deteriorated" economic forecast.

  • "The global environment is fragile with storm clouds on the horizon," according to the research.

  • The IMF also stated that the danger of "miscalibration" in monetary, fiscal, or financial policy has "risen sharply," while the global economy "remains historically fragile" and financial markets are "showing signs of stress."
