Top officials in Russia have raised concerns about Kremlin moves to nationalize companies and an overheated economy in rare rebukes of Vladimir Putin's economic policy.
On Tuesday, Herman Gref, the CEO of Russia's largest bank, Sberbank, warned about the negative effects of high state spending on the military to fund the war in Ukraine. "Our economy is definitely overheated," Gref told the Federation Council, Russia's upper house, on Tuesday, according to the Tass news agency.
The next day, questions were raised about a Kremlin policy of forced nationalizations since the start of Putin's full-scale invasion, which has been followed by many foreign companies leaving the country. In the first two years of the war, 180 private companies have come under state control as of March 2024, according to Novaya Gazeta Europe, a Latvia-based independent Russian newspaper.
In May, a court ordered the assets of pasta manufacturer Makfa Group to be handed the Russian state. In December 2023, a majority stake in strategic metals firm Solikamsk Magnesium Plant was transferred from its private owners to the state's nuclear energy company.

The operation, occurring in the waters of Lake Panske—an area adjoined to the Black Sea—marked the latest in Ukraine’s strategic use of drones against Russian maritime assets. Such vessels, though not frontline combat ships, serve critical logistical and support roles, indicating Ukraine’s nuanced understanding of disrupting enemy supply lines.
