SOCIAL WELL-BEING OF RUSSIANS IN THE SPRING OF 2022

Based on the materials of the All-Russian sociological survey conducted in May 2022, changes in the situation of citizens after the introduction of external sanctions are analyzed. Almost half of Russians faced problems at work, there is a massive decline in incomes of the population, two-thirds were forced to change their lifestyle.
