“…Since 2014,the United States and Europe have barred all economic entities in the country from making new investments and providing key equipment and technology for Arctic oil exploration, deep-sea drilling, and shale oil and gas development in the Russian oil sector (Shapovalova et al, 2020). Coupled with the lack of private investment in Russia (Uskova and Razgzulina, 2015), the cost of oil and gas exploration is much higher than before the sanctions. To increase government revenue, develop the economy, and maintain military expenditure, Russia has to develop its oil and gas industry, and thus its dependence on resources is increasing.…”

At present, carbon intensity in the economy has become a realistic problem faced by many countries.Decarbonization and green development have gradually become one of the main trends in the world, and major countries around the world have put forward carbon neutrality targets. Russia is one of the largest greenhouse gas emitters in the world. Therefore, under the current international situation of The Russia-Ukraine war and the exogenous impact on Russia's economy and finance, it is of great significance to study Russia's carbon emissions for Russia's economic development, environmental protection and global green development. In recent years, Russia's carbon intensity has remained high, which may be caused by several factors, such as the decline in actual investment level, single industrial structure, excessive dependence on oil and gas industry, external shocks to the Russian economy in 2014 and other macroeconomic factors. The purpose of this study is to identify trends in carbon intensity during the period of exogenous shocks to the Russian economy and financial sector from 2014 to 2018, and to explain the causes. First, the synthetic control method is used to examine the changes in Russia's carbon intensity since 2014, and the results show that since 2014, Russia's carbon intensity has increased significantly; Secondly, using the mediation effect analysis model to test the impact mechanism, it is found that since 2014, the Russian industrial structure has not been actively improved, but instead increased its dependence on the resource industry, thereby increasing carbon emissions. Combined with the tail effect analysis, Russia has faced significant economic pressure, and its carbon intensity is unlikely to return to the state before 2014 in the short term.

“…Theoretical models conclusions are confirmed by empirical studies. The analysis of various factors influence on the regional economy growth was carried out in the works by (Nikholaev, 2012;Uskova & Razgulina, 2015). Based on the analysis of economic development dynamics, the authors conclude that the main factors of Russian regions' economy growth are the level of investment activity along with the growth of the number of economically active population.…”

“…Public-private partnership (PPP) is considered as a promising tool of regional investment policy (Uskova & Razgulina, 2015, Tsvetkov, Zoidov, & Medkov, 2017. Almost all regions of the NWFD use PPP to support investment activities.…”
