Many of the problems with Russia are similar to the problems of (for example) Canada or inland Alaska -- half of the country suffers from very harsh winters, and there still isn't that much train or high-quality road access. Russia has developed enormously in the past two decades, but it still suffers from a lack of infrastructure once you get away from the European quarter, or from the southern cities of Siberia.
