Fact is, for most Russians, it’s bordering on third world shithole status.

More than 11 million live below the poverty level as defined by making less than about US$200 per month.

22.6% of Russians do not have indoor plumbing. In rural Russia, almost 2/3 have no access to indoor toilets, 48.1% use outhouses and 18.4% do not have a sewage system, according to the Russian State Statistics Agency Rosstat

Kazakhstan wants to recover over 2 bln rubles from Roscosmos subsidiary in favor of JV Baiterek

On March 7th, 2023, Kazakhstan seized control of the Biaterek launch complex at the Baikonur Cosmodrome – Russia’s main launch site since 1955. According to statements by KZ24 News and The Moscow Times, the Kakazh government has impounded Russian assets at the Center for Utilization of Ground-based Space Infrastructure (TsENKI), a subsidiary of Roscosmos. It is also preventing Russian officials from leaving the country or liquidating Roscosmos assets. This incident is another example of how Russia’s space program is suffering collateral damage from the war in Ukraine.

The decision was made because the Russian State company failed to pay its debts to the Kazakh government, which are now over 13.5 billion tenges (2.258 billion rubles; $29.7 million). This debt is part of the “Baiterek” program, a Kazakh-Russian joint venture related to the development of the Soyuz-5 booster. This program was created in 2005 to speed the transition from launch vehicles that rely on highly-toxic unsymmetric dimethylhydrazine (UDMH) – aka. “heptyl” fuel (C2H8N2) – and adopting ecologically safe propellants and launch practices.

Dugh, why do you think Russian conscripts were mostly interested in stealing Ukrainian's washing machines and shipping them back to Russia?

Lol 30 million debt can be paid with less then a day in oil sales, highly doubt russia can't pay that

That's right.
Vostochny is already working, there have already been launches from him.
This is a civilian spaceport. In addition to him, there is a military man.
