Abstract

After the Russian government announced a special military operation in Ukraine on February 24, Russia faced unprecedented sanctions pressure, which could not but affect the sphere of science and education. This paper touches on the problems and sudden changes that have affected Russian science, such as: shortages of equipment and components, the breakdown of international cooperation, and the "brain drain. Based on a summary of statements and statements by scientists, politicians, ministers, and officials representing Russian and foreign science, the impact of sanctions on domestic science is analyzed and potential options for developments are considered.
