Which is not surprising. I was not surprised by the Baltic States, which were quickly annexed by the EU. They have this "holiday of life" due to the absolutely wild debt burden of Russia (ports, energy, transit). In a few years, little of this "GDP" will remain. Ukraine, which is in the last place in terms of growth, was not surprised. This is despite the agricultural and industrial power. You had to be so contrived! And look, they started, like Russia, from the "green zone", i.e. a decent level.
But what surprised …
I was surprised by Uzbekistan if the data is correct. It turns out that his GDP per capita grows at the level of Russia, Kazakhstan and Belarus. Even Turkmenistan in this row is less surprising, realizing that they have quite rich mineral resources. And the Uzbeks that rose so well on cotton?
Armenia also has an excellent indicator. They started from the "yellow level", ie. worse than Russia. But the much-vaunted Georgia is somehow not very good, right? And Georgia started from the level of the Baltics. We finished here in different ways.
In terms of numbers, Moldova is not all that bad. The middle peasants are almost at the level of Kazakhstan.
In general, the entire table can be divided into three groups:
1. Handsome men. This is the Balts + Armenia.
2. Weak. These are Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan and all the yellow ones.

3. All fucked up. This is of course Ukraine. The Tajiks and Kyrgyz, in principle, did not lay claim to much.
