Russia is now one notch below Austria, ranked 27th, but above Japan which is in 29th place. New Zealand remained the best place for Doing Business in the world, according to the World Bank, while Somalia was the worst.
Over the past year, Russia made getting access to electricity faster, strengthened minority investor protections by requiring greater corporate transparency, and made paying taxes easier, the World Bank said in an annual report.
GDP of Russia is the same as the state of New York. Putin(Russian Organized Criminals, Oligrahs) want to have a bigger say in international economic decision making. He is stacking paper '💵' to gain entry into the exclusive international club on the backs of brown & black people
behind Texas and California....
Tump did his boy, Putin good.
