Yes, a progressive tax will be introduced
Russia is short of money. For 3 months, the budget deficit is equal to the annual one. The main reason for such a budget deficit is too small revenues from the sale of hydrocarbons.

President Vladimir Putin instructed to modernize the tax system and consolidate it in a new form. He talks about it as if the choice has already been made. The tax hike will hit the Russian economy hard, as it will be easier to import than to produce. It would be better to honestly say that the money is needed for the war, and after the war we will return everything to its place.
Putin believes that society will normally accept the change of the tax system
The budget is bursting at the seams, for 2 months the budget deficit is equal to the annual one. Why this will lead to a catastrophe for the population immediately after the elections.

Negotiations will begin in the spring of 2026, as the USA has again allocated money for military operations to Ukraine.
Ukraine signed an agreement with the USA on rare earth metals, and the USA allocated money for military actions. Russia declared a ceasefire for 3 days in honor of Victory Day. Zelensky proposed to extend the ceasefire for 30 days. A 30-day ceasefire could be used as a cover for rearming.

The summer negotiations between the USA, Ukraine, and Russia will lead to nothing. Ukraine has funds to continue the war. Russia has also changed the goals of its special military operation, expanding its territorial claims. To achieve these objectives, it is necessary to increase the size of the armed forces. An autumn draft into the army is expected in Russia, and fierce fighting is anticipated in winter, while in spring 2026, based on the results of military actions, it may be possible to sit down at the negotiating table.

Science is expensive, but near-science brings noticeably more money.
Why does no one need scientists in Russia?
