Bottom Line: Hours after the invasion began, russian scientists published an appeal calling the war “a leap in the dark” that would isolate russia; the page is now unreachable and many signatories have emigrated after accusations from their rectors and the Academy of Sciences. Repression has silenced researchers, 7,200 people were arrested for discrediting the army, and scientists such as Anatoly Maslov stand accused of passing secrets to China. Hence putin’s call for technological sovereignty rings hollow while his regime degrades russian science.
