You’re almost right. The match was the attempt to take the Russian deal and, knowing full well what that meant, people took to the streets.
That $15 billion would be an investment in a puppet state at Putin’s beck and call. Belarus is all the evidence you need, but you can also see how well the CSTO is going for Armenia. Utterly worthless deals.
The fact CSTO has a defense clause which Russia has failed to follow through on multiple times? You talk economic growth, cherry picking stats you like, when I’m talking about the core foundation of a defense pact. The defense. Not once has the group actually defended a member state during an armed conflict, specifically the ongoing fight between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
It is a toothless pact. I’ll let Lord handle your stat nonsense, since that wasn’t the point of me mentioning CSTO.

There’s data available here if you want to see the numbers yourself:

1992 was the start of CSTO.
Ukraine GDP per capita 1992 = $1418
Ukraine GDP per capita 2021 = $4828
Armenia GDP per capita 1992 = $356
Armenia GDP per capita 2021 = $4967
Belarus GDP per capita 1992 = $1668
Belarus GDP per capita 2021 = $7490
Care to elaborate on your comment in light of this data?
Cherrypicking data after a huge economic crisis and showing growth. Wow. Incredible. Just as a comparison:
Poland GDP per Capita 1992: $2459
Poland GDP per Capita 2021: $17999
