Who said a ruble is worth a penny now? It's already less.
[QUOTE=Putologist;2957702]Report written by my local resident friend. So, in Russia right after the beginning of the SMO there was a short period of panic (dollar and euro went up strongly), but after that the calm after the storm came and the prices are quite stable until this day. USD and Euro also has stabilized and even fell a bit. [/QUOTE]Right. Totally stable. Your "friend" is right on money, literally.
RUB ₽ - Russian Ruble.
1.
USD $ - US Dollar.
0. 0099.
Congrats on your booming economy. Who could've thought that all you needed for economic prosperity was a dumb, pointless, suicidal war. Oh and also flipping a bird to the "collective West". That helped too.
[QUOTE=Putologist;2957702]The geopolitical implications are notable for all: BRICS are the new kids on the block. Russia is moving more and more away from what they call "unfriendly countries" aka collective West. Lavrov recently said that it will take a whole generation for the relations with the collective West to improve to a level before 2022. But the uni-polarity will never come back. It's a multipolar world now.
