The point is that 1 yr after the start of sanctions, russia has been barely affected. if anything their economy is stronger now than if they never invaded. They have strengthened their relationship with their true allies while jettisoning the ties that only held them back.
Economic ties to the west are detrimental to the advancement of nations.
their oil was down in the month of january.... you keep looking at barrels..look at money inflation double digits

I believe that story came from Biden, so there's about a 99% chance it's bullshit.

MOSCOW (Reuters) -- Russia will do everything in its power to prevent global financial crisis capsizing its economy, Prime Minister Vladimir Putin has said, announcing a package of stimulus measures and help for people who lose out in the downturn.
Speaking at the annual congress of the dominant Unified Russia party, which he chairs, Putin laid out a strategic vision for how Russia would respond to a crisis that has driven its stock markets down over 70 percent since May.
The crisis has hammered confidence in the Russian economy and raised the prospect that popular discontent could, for the first time in eight years, seriously undermine the ruling double act of Putin and President Dmitry Medvedev.
"People are asking a fair question: What is going to happen to us?" Putin told the congress, in an upscale shopping center a few meters from the Kremlin. "Russia, like many other developed countries in the world, is facing difficult conditions.
"We will do everything in our power to make sure that there are no more economic shocks like the ones in 1991 and 1998," he said, referring to the turmoil after the collapse of the Soviet Union and, later, when Russia effectively defaulted on its foreign debt 10 years ago.
Putin said he believed Russia's large gold and foreign exchange reserves and the funds it had accumulated during years of high oil prices put it in good stead to weather the crisis.
"The reserves that we have accumulated have given us room for maneuver. They allow us to preserve macroeconomic stability and therefore they will help us prevent a surge in inflation and a sharp change in the ruble rate," he said.
Russia's MICEX stock exchange picked up slightly after Putin's speech but did not regain earlier losses. Investors did not share Putin's optimism about the economy.

Sounds like Putin is on top of things, being proactive, of course he could just blame Trump for everything.
