Inside Putin's Failed Tech: Why Russia Can’t Build Anything Anymore

Russia once built Sputnik. Now it strips washing machines for chips. Here is what went wrong. When you see rockets on TV and “miracle” Russian robots on parade, it’s easy to think the old Soviet tech power is still alive. In this video, I peel back the facade and show how Putin’s Russia hollowed out its own science: from once self-sufficient industries to an import-addicted petrostate, from vanishing Soviet engineers to a massive brain drain, from corrupt defense “wonder weapons” to fake microchips and stunt robots. If you want to understand why a country that launched the first satellite now scavenges parts from fridges and washing machines, and what that means for the future of Russian power, this deep dive is for you.
