Vyacheslav Markhaev, a member of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, said officials in Moscow have developed several programs and strategies across all sectors of the economy. However, most remain merely statements on paper.<\/p>\n

\u201cInstead of real action, we continue to face new bans, restrictions and a growing financial burden,\u201d Mr. Markhaev said Thursday on Telegram. \u201cOne of the most pressing problems is housing and utilities, which have effectively become a tool for extracting funds from the population.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said attacks on Russian cities from Ukrainian forces are on the increase, noting that Kyiv successfully struck the St. Petersburg Oil Terminal, one of the largest in the Baltic, on the opening day of the government-endorsed international economic forum.<\/p>\n

\u201cAttacks on our cities continue unabated, their geography is expanding, the West is increasing its supply of drones, and we are forced to endure,\u201d Mr. Markhaev wrote. \u201cThe Presidential administration is already stating that the goals of denazification and demilitarization of Ukraine are essentially limited to new territories, not the entire country.\u201d<\/p>\n

He condemned what he said was a widespread inequality gap in Russia. While pensioners are forced to spend much of their income on utilities, public funds are spent on yachts and palaces for the wealthy, he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe pockets of government officials and those close to the elite are not emptying,\u201d Mr. Markhaev wrote. \u201cThe number of Russian billionaires reached a record high \u2014 155 individuals, with a combined wealth of almost $700 billion, which is one and a half times the federal budget.\u201d<\/p>\n

Without naming Russian President Vladimir Putin, Mr. Markhaev said the same group has led the country\u2019s political system for a quarter of a century, which has \u201clargely lost touch with the needs of the people.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cModern Russia has survived half the lifespan of the Soviet Union, yet only the oligarchs and their entourage \u2014 less than 5% of the population \u2014 can boast of development,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
