Owkee, that is quite different. China still is keeping its massive boost and otl growth, the USA is doing quite a bit better, Japan is not getting the boost you asked me to give it, in fact even declining compared to OTL ($8.118.586) and the Union State barely grew compared to the $8.453.912 they were going to grow to. France, UK and others grew 10-15% each, while Germany is nearly identical to the projected growth. I am losing the ability to capture this in a sheet.

New
(Purchase of Su-27s and other advanced aircraft bolstered military capabilities of Libya under Colonel Gaddafi)
The negotiations between President Lukashenko and Muammar Gaddafi yielded a series of landmark agreements that significantly bolstered the bilateral relationship between Russia and Libya across multiple sectors. These agreements, encompassing economic, defense, energy, tourism, and security cooperation, represented a strategic alignment of interests aimed at fostering mutual prosperity and stability in the region. One of the key outcomes of the negotiations was the economic deal, which set the stage for expanded trade relations and joint investment projects between the two nations. This agreement facilitated the exchange of goods and services, opening up new avenues for economic growth and development. In the realm of defense cooperation, the arms trade deal marked a significant milestone, with Russia agreeing to supply Libya with advanced military equipment including MiG-29s, Su-27s, S-300s, and modernized T-72s. This bolstered Libya's defense capabilities and solidified Russia's position as a key partner in ensuring regional security. The oil deal was another critical agreement, aiming to optimize Libya's oil exploration, production, and export activities with Russia's expertise and resources. This partnership promised to strengthen energy security and stimulate economic growth in both countries' energy sectors. Furthermore, the establishment of a Russian air and naval base at Tripoli provided Russia with a strategic foothold in North Africa, enhancing its geopolitical influence in the region while facilitating logistical support for military operations. Joint training programs and military exercises between Spetsnaz and Libyan units were initiated to enhance military cooperation and interoperability, contributing to regional security and stability. Additionally, covert cooperation between the FSB and Libyan internal security forces aimed to combat transnational threats and enhance intelligence sharing efforts. In the realm of tourism, the agreement sought to promote travel exchanges and cultural engagement between Russia and Libya, stimulating economic growth in the tourism industry and showcasing Libya's historical and natural attractions to Russian tourists. Lastly, the infrastructure deal focused on modernizing Libya's infrastructure through investment in transportation, energy, and telecommunications projects, furthering economic development and connectivity within the country.
During the pivotal negotiations between Presidents Lukashenko and Obama in Moscow, a series of groundbreaking agreements were reached, reshaping the trajectory of Russo-American relations and setting the stage for a new period of cooperation. At the forefront of these agreements was the historic decision to lift the embargo on the export of titanium to the United States. This move represented a significant breakthrough in bilateral diplomatic and trade relations, with far-reaching implications for both countries' industries and economic partnerships. By removing embargo to the trade of titanium, Russia demonstrated a commitment to fostering economic collaboration and overcoming obstacles to mutual prosperity. Simultaneously, the United States made a reciprocal commitment to lift its embargo on the Russian nuclear sector, marking a major milestone in bilateral relations. The decision to remove restrictions on nuclear trade opened up vast opportunities for joint ventures, technology transfers, and collaborative research initiatives in the field of nuclear energy. This move underscored the shared vision of Russia and the USA in advancing global nuclear security and promoting the peaceful use of nuclear technology for civilian purposes. It also laid the groundwork for closer cooperation in addressing common challenges related to nuclear proliferation and non-proliferation efforts. In addition to these economic and nuclear agreements, Presidents Lukashenko and Obama signed the New START Treaty, a landmark arms control agreement aimed at reducing the number of strategic nuclear warheads held by both countries. This treaty represented a significant step towards nuclear disarmament and non-proliferation, reaffirming the commitment of Russia and the USA to upholding global peace and security. By limiting the proliferation of nuclear weapons and enhancing transparency in nuclear arsenals, the New START Treaty bolstered confidence in the international community's ability to prevent the spread of nuclear arms and mitigate the risk of nuclear conflict. Furthermore, the negotiations in Moscow facilitated a reset of relations between Moscow and Washington, signaling a mutual desire to move beyond past tensions and build a more constructive partnership. This reset was characterized by a renewed emphasis on dialogue, diplomacy, and engagement across a wide range of issues, including arms control, regional security, and economic collaboration. Both leaders expressed optimism about the prospects for a revitalized relationship, highlighting the importance of pragmatic engagement and shared interests in shaping bilateral ties for the better. The agreements reached during the negotiations between Presidents Lukashenko and Obama in Moscow represented a watershed moment in Russo-American relations, symbolizing a departure from the confrontational rhetoric of the past towards a more pragmatic approach to diplomacy.
(Increase of the defence budget was very welcomed by the Russian Armed Forces and Russian military-industrial complex)
In April 2010, against the backdrop of ongoing American domination and the rapid expansion of military capabilities by China, Russia made a strategic decision to bolster its defense capabilities by increasing its defense budget from 2% to 2.5% of its GDP. This move signaled a proactive response to shifting geopolitical dynamics and underscored Russia's commitment to maintaining a robust and modernized military posture in the face of evolving security challenges. The decision to allocate additional resources to defense reflected Russia's recognition of the need to adapt to emerging threats and geopolitical realities. With the United States continuing to assert its dominance on the global stage and China rapidly modernizing its military capabilities, Russia sought to ensure its own security and strategic interests by enhancing its defense preparedness and technological prowess. The increase in the defense budget enabled Russia to pursue a comprehensive modernization program aimed at upgrading its military infrastructure, acquiring advanced weaponry, and enhancing the readiness and capabilities of its armed forces. This included investments in next-generation aircraft, naval vessels, missile defense systems, cyber warfare capabilities, and other cutting-edge technologies designed to maintain Russia's military edge in an increasingly competitive security environment. Furthermore, the decision to boost defense spending was driven by Russia's commitment to safeguarding its sovereignty, territorial integrity, and national interests in the face of perceived external threats and geopolitical uncertainties. With tensions simmering in various regions, including Eastern Europe and the Asia-Pacific, Russia deemed it imperative to maintain a credible deterrent and ensure its ability to defend itself against potential adversaries. Moreover, the increase in defense spending also served to bolster Russia's role as a key player in global security affairs and reinforce its status as a major military power with the capacity to shape regional dynamics and influence international security outcomes. By investing in its defense capabilities, Russia aimed to assert its strategic autonomy and protect its sphere of influence in an increasingly multipolar world order.
The results of the snap legislative elections held in May 2010 marked a significant turning point in Russian politics, reflecting the shifting dynamics within the country's political landscape. The electoral outcomes showcased the growing influence of emerging opposition movements and signaled a notable decline in support for the ruling United Labor Party. New People, in alliance with Yabloko, emerged as the clear victor of the elections, securing an impressive 41.5% of the popular vote. Led by the charismatic and reform-minded Elvira Nabiullina and backed by the experienced political acumen of Grigory Yavlinsky, the New People/Yabloko coalition resonated with voters who sought progressive change and a departure from the status quo. Their platform, grounded in civic democratic principles and a commitment to economic and political reform, struck a chord with a diverse range of constituents disillusioned with the entrenched corruption and political stagnation. Right Cause, under the leadership of former chess grandmaster Garry Kasparov, emerged as a formidable contender, capturing 22% of the vote. With its platform of liberal conservatism and market-oriented policies, Right Cause appealed to voters eager for fresh ideas and bold leadership. Kasparov's international stature and reputation as a fearless critic of the government added to the party's appeal, attracting support from urban professionals, intellectuals, and disaffected youth seeking alternatives to the ruling establishment. Meanwhile, the United Labor Party, in coalition with the Agrarian Party, experienced a significant setback, garnering only 20% of the vote. The decline in support for the ruling party reflected widespread dissatisfaction with its handling of various issues, including corruption and political stagnation. The party's inability to address these challenges effectively eroded its credibility and opened the door for opposition forces to gain ground. The Communist Party and the Liberal Democratic Party of Russia (LDPR) also made notable showings in the elections, securing 7.2% and 5.5% of the vote, respectively. While both parties represented contrasting ideological positions – the Communists advocating for socialist policies and the LDPR espousing nationalist rhetoric – their performances underscored the diverse range of political views and preferences among Russian voters.

(To save his political career and the United Labor Party, Dmitry Medvedev decided to help Nabiullina impeach President Lukashenko)
The decision of New People/Yabloko to enter into a coalition with the United Labor Party/Agrarian Party alliance represented a significant realignment of political forces in Russia, with far-reaching implications for governance, stability, and the balance of power within the government. The formation of this majority government coalition marked a strategic move aimed at consolidating political support, fostering unity, and advancing a shared agenda of reform and progress. At the heart of the coalition was the partnership between Elvira Nabiullina, leader of New People, and Alexey Nechayev, the newly appointed Prime Minister, representing a convergence of liberal and centrist forces committed to pragmatic governance and economic modernization. Nabiullina's experience as a former Prime Minister from 1999 to 2009 endowed her with a deep understanding of government operations, policy formulation, and inter-party dynamics, making her a pivotal figure in negotiations and coalition building. Her tenure as Prime Minister, characterized by stability, economic growth, and cooperation with Dmitry Medvedev, positioned her as a trusted leader capable of navigating complex political terrain and brokering compromise. The decision to enter into a coalition with the United Labor Party/Agrarian Party alliance was not without its challenges and trade-offs. While New People/Yabloko sought to leverage its newfound political leverage to advance its policy priorities and reform agenda, the alliance required concessions and compromises from both sides. In exchange for allowing the United Labor Party to remain in power, albeit as a coalition partner, Nabiullina negotiated a series of key demands aimed at strengthening the government's legitimacy, accountability, and effectiveness. Central to the coalition agreement was the condition that the United Labor Party leadership would sever ties with President Lukashenko and support efforts to hold him accountable for all wrongdoing. Nabiullina, leveraging her political capital and influence within the coalition, insisted on full transparency and cooperation from the Unite Labor Party Leadership in uncovering any potential misconduct or malfeasance on the part of Lukashenko, including providing all relevant information and evidence to facilitate legal proceedings.
The decision to distance the United Labor Party from Lukashenko underscored Nabiullina's commitment to upholding the rule of law, accountability, and ethical governance, signaling a break from past practices and a reaffirmation of democratic principles. Moreover, Nabiullina's insistence on supporting an impeachment vote against Lukashenko represented a bold and decisive move aimed at restoring public trust, restoring public trust, and safeguarding the integrity of the political process. By holding the United Labor Party leadership accountable for their association with Lukashenko and compelling them to take a stand against corruption and abuse of power, Nabiullina sought to demonstrate her commitment to good governance, transparency, and accountability. In agreeing to Nabiullina's demands, Dmitry Medvedev and the United Labor Party leadership recognized the need to adapt to changing political realities, safeguard the party's credibility, and maintain stability and continuity in government. The coalition between New People/Yabloko and the United Labor Party/Agrarian Party alliance represented a pragmatic and forward-looking approach to governance, rooted in cooperation, compromise, and a shared commitment to advancing the common good.
(Legalization of cannabis in Russia would result in billions in profits for the Russian state)
The legalization of marijuana in Russia, coupled with the establishment of a government monopoly on its production and distribution, marked a significant shift in drug policy and regulatory framework under the leadership of Prime Minister Alexey Nechayev. This move reflected a departure from previous approaches characterized by strict prohibitionist measures and signaled a more progressive stance towards drug use and regulation. By legalizing marijuana, the government aimed to address several key objectives. Firstly, it sought to mitigate the social and economic costs associated with the criminalization of marijuana, including the burden on law enforcement resources, overcrowded prisons, and the marginalization of drug users. Legalization provided an opportunity to regulate the production, sale, and consumption of marijuana, thereby reducing the influence of illicit drug markets and organized crime. Moreover, the establishment of a government monopoly on marijuana production and distribution enabled authorities to exert greater control over the quality, potency, and safety of cannabis products available to consumers. By standardizing production processes and implementing quality control measures, the government aimed to minimize health risks associated with the consumption of marijuana and ensure compliance with public health standards. In addition to drug policy reforms, the Nechayev government continued and expanded upon the long-term strategies initiated by Prime Minister Nabiullina and continued by Prime Minister Medvedev, focusing on innovation, technological advancement, and economic diversification. The pursuit of smart systems and vertical farming represented efforts to leverage cutting-edge technologies to enhance efficiency, productivity, and sustainability in key sectors such as agriculture, urban planning, and resource management.
Furthermore, the government's emphasis on high technologies, particularly in the production and development of semiconductors and microchips, underscored Russia's aspirations to compete in the global technology race against Western countries and China. Recognizing the strategic importance of these technologies in various industries, including telecommunications, defense, and consumer electronics, the government prioritized investments in research, development, and infrastructure to bolster Russia's capabilities and competitiveness in this critical domain. The intensifying competition in semiconductor and microchip technologies underscored the significance of maintaining technological sovereignty and reducing dependence on foreign suppliers. By investing in domestic R&D, fostering innovation ecosystems, and supporting indigenous manufacturing capabilities, the government aimed to position Russia as a leading player in the global semiconductor industry and secure its strategic interests in the face of geopolitical uncertainties and technological disruption. The policies pursued by Prime Minister Nechayev's government reflected a multifaceted approach to governance, encompassing social reform, economic modernization, and technological innovation. Through the legalization of marijuana and the promotion of advanced technologies, the government sought to address pressing societal challenges, stimulate economic growth, and enhance Russia's competitiveness in an increasingly complex and interconnected world.
The introduction of a participatory budget (PB) on the local administrative level by Prime Minister Nechayev marked a significant departure from traditional top-down budgeting processes and represented a bold step towards democratizing decision-making in governance. Participatory budgeting allowed citizens to have a direct say in how a portion of public funds was allocated and spent, empowering them to prioritize projects and initiatives that addressed their needs and priorities. Under Nechayev's leadership, the government implemented a system of controlled PB, wherein local authorities retained control over the majority of the city's budget while allocating a predetermined portion for participatory budgeting. This approach struck a balance between grassroots participation and government oversight, ensuring that essential public projects and government functions were adequately funded while also fostering greater citizen engagement and accountability. Controlled PB allowed cities to determine the percentage of their budget to allocate for participatory budgeting, thereby enabling flexibility in adapting the process to local needs and circumstances. By involving residents in decision-making processes, controlled PB promoted transparency, inclusivity, and civic engagement, fostering a sense of ownership and responsibility among citizens for their communities' development. However, it was essential to note that while participatory budgeting empowered citizens to influence the allocation of a portion of the budget, it did not entail full control over the entire local budget. Government authorities retained authority over critical budgetary decisions related to essential services, infrastructure development, and strategic investments necessary for the overall well-being and development of the city. Furthermore, the introduction of controlled PB complemented existing budgetary mechanisms and government functions, ensuring coherence and alignment with broader policy objectives at the regional and national levels. While citizens had a say in funding priorities through participatory budgeting, government agencies continued to oversee the implementation of projects and programs to ensure efficiency, accountability, and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. Overall, the introduction of controlled participatory budgeting reflected Prime Minister Nechayev's commitment to promoting grassroots democracy, fostering citizen participation, and enhancing governance effectiveness at the local level. By harnessing the collective wisdom and expertise of residents, controlled PB had the potential to unlock innovative solutions to pressing challenges and build stronger, more resilient communities.
