Russia is currently fighting on three fronts according to Zakharova

Maria Zakharova, spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry, stated that Russia is facing three fronts of confrontation: an armed conflict in Ukraine, an economic battle due to trade sanctions, and an informational struggle. The Russian economy is experiencing a slowdown, with a 2.1% decline in GDP in January 2026. Military operations in Ukraine continue without resolution, while both sides are conducting disinformation campaigns.
