Putin can't afford it anymore, is my guess.

@pumalee1997 - Inflation is a global trend. Russia's inflation, for example, is twice that of the U.S. Putin blew it, Russia just doesn't want to accept the truth about "Deda".

@pumalee1997 - Russia is suffering under a dying dictator with Stalin envy.

@HugM-0813 - The facts aren't really in dIspute. Roscosmos is not viable anymore. "The European Space Agency informed Russia that it would no longer collaborate on a joint Mars mission, which it can afford to pursue alone." "Roscosmos cannot. Amid sanctions and Russia’s belligerence toward its European partners, who would hire it? That leaves a once-proud space program with no apparent way to remain relevant as a space power." "Whatever route Russia’s leadership takes back to space, it’s unlikely to restore its nation’s status as a space pioneer. Instead, thanks to Ukraine, it has become history’s first outer space also-ran."

@patrickpirzer4080 - Agreed. But it's been inflamed by the market and supply disruption of the pandemic, and the Ukraine war's pressure on fuel and grain prices.
