Several years ago I read a lengthy article in the Economist about how the infrastructure in Russia was deplorable. IIRC they had spent so much money in the 'arms race' that basic needs/repairs (ie: streets, water systems, sewer systems, electricity supplies, etc.) in many locals were literally ...crumbling.

Anyone here travel there much? Are those issues being addressed, since the break-up of the USSR?
