| Falling oil prices, sanctions, and weakening investor confidence will lead to a sharp contraction in Russia’s economy during 2015, hurting growth in other Eastern European and central Asian economies with which it has close ties, according to the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development. The bank also slashed its growth forecast for Ukraine, saying the nation’s economy is in “a precarious state” as the death toll in the eastern part of the country rises despite a cease-fire between the government and pro-Russian rebels. | |||||||
