According to his 2023 State-of-the-Nation speech, how does Vladimir Putin plan to fight Western sanctions in the future?

During his state-of-the-nation address on Feb. 21, 2023, Putin said Russia would change its education system and science and technology policies to withstand Western sanctions. He also warned that Moscow could resume nuclear tests. Putin accused Western elites of targeting Russian culture, religion, and values because they “>realize it is impossible to defeat Russia on the battlefield.”> To sweeten the deal, he promised soldiers and draftees taking part in the war two weeks of leave every six months.
