Risks of involvement of the annexed territories in schemes of economic offenses and ways to minimize them
Abstract
This article focuses on assessing the current economic status of the new regions annexed to the Russian Federation: the Luhansk People’s Republic, the Donetsk People’s Republic, as well as the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions. The annexed territories have an area of 108,844 km² and a total population of 6.2 million people. New regions offer extensive economic potential for Russia, and a correct choice of priority areas of development is one of the most important tasks of the state. However, the special military operation has seriously destabilized the economy of most of the regions and undermined the small and medium-sized business sector. In the long term, this situation may lead to an increase in various economic crimes. The article deals with such economic crimes as money laundering and premeditated bankruptcy.
