So FYI folks, I've updated both statistical updates based on a discussion with
@panpiotr - warning, you might see some spoilers for the future in there if you compare them with the OTL numbers:
Hot take, if we can somehow get NATO to collapse/expel Turkey/leave NATO, we can revive the age-old Russian dream of taking the straits, and most importantly, liberate Tsargrad from the Turks.

Honestly i feel like Lukashenko/Medvedev have just continued/stolen Nabiullina's policies and have put their name on them. I'll so vote for her if she's candidate in next elections. I also want a female president as Russia didn't have female leader since Catherine the Great. Not to mention she...

I also took the liberty to use a country I find a close match to what we want the Union State to be as a template, to create a more specified Federal Budget (another reason why I had to update the numbers before). I did remove some money from debt, and added it to the Ministry of the Interior Building and Community, Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure and Ministry for Education and Research. So even if you should recognise the country, it's not a 100% match. And obviously, we already adjusted the military spend, so that is different too (and all others have been adjusted to match). Enjoy!
Edit: crap found another error, give me 5
