according to the data collected in the first eleven months of the year,  la russia today is the 13th the target market of italian exports.

in addition to the two famous cities that are the most populous (moscow: more than 12 million; st. petersburg: more than 5 million), we have:

– novosibirsk, ekaterinburg, nižnij novgorod kazan, Čeljabinsk, omsk, samara and rostov on don – all with a population of over one million.

the per capita gdp of $27900 is very badly distributed if it thinks that the inequality in the country, according to the gini index, is higher than countries such as madagascar, mali, uganda and venezuela.
