Abstract
Russia has become more integrated and dependent on global developments over the last decades, despite being ruled by an increasingly autocratic regime. We perform a cointegration analysis on a monthly dataset spanning from 2001 to 2021, with a limited set of variables reflecting both domestic and international developments. Results point to significant interactions between these two dimensions, mostly over the short-term. Kremlin may employ media control as a discretionary policy instrument to influence popular support for the incumbent, but this works slowly and is hardly sustainable in the long-term.
