It is surprising that even supposedly liberal media do not question whether the Russian Federation will be able to maintain control over the city for so long. And it would be worth it.
Russia has already prepared a “development plan” < temporarily occupied Mariupol until 2035. It was developed at the Unified Institute of Spatial Planning by order of the Ministry of Construction of the aggressor country. This plan fell into the possession of the Russian "The Village".
The master plan states that as of 2022, the population of Mariupol, according to Russian data, is 212,000 people. The Russian Federation hopes that by 2025 it will grow to 350,000, and in 2035 it will reach half a million inhabitants, as before the war.
The Russians are planning to restore the Azovstal plant, which they destroyed, where the Ukrainian military held the defense of the city for a long time, being completely surrounded, and the Ilyich plant. Both are still owned by Ukrainian businessman Rinat Akhmetov.

What's more, the Russian authorities have also decided to restore the Mariupol Drama Theater, which they want to call the “Russian Drama Theater”. It looks quite cynical, because back in March, the Russian military dropped a super-powerful bomb on this building, as a result of which hundreds of Ukrainians who were hiding there died. Subsequently, the local authorities of Mariupol reported thatthe occupiers did not even pull out their bodies from under the rubble. During the “reconstruction” of the Drama Theater, the military filled everything with concrete and then bleach to get rid of the smell of decomposing human bodies.

The media notes that examples of buildings in the “document” were illustrated with photos of buildings taken before February 24, i.e. before the beginning of the Russian invasion.

The Russian authorities can plan anything. But such “plans” will not help her. The Kremlin should finally understand that the final decision in this war will rest with the Armed Forces. We believe that our soldiers will liberate Ukrainian Mariupol. It's only a matter of time. And it will definitely be rebuilt, but at home. We will remind, the advisor of the mayor of Mariupol, Petro Andryushchenko, said that in the city captured by Russian troops, the occupiers decided to “evacuate” to Russia as the main method of preparing for winter and “fighting the frost”. He recalled that in Mariupol about 90% of high-rise buildings were damaged.
