They may have to use Uber to move their troops...
may even have to resort to walking possibly..
tell me how functional a country is (no matter the "power" they claim to have..) when they are going broke.
try keeping an army you can't pay...
what will russia pay it's troops in when the ruble is worthless or next to worthless?
Venez. , Saudi Arabia ...
Hell...Canada ..
especially the province of Alberta..
was banking on oil...
what has been happening has definitely hurt our economy here...
thank goodness we didn't have all our eggs in just that one basket....

pretty much all the countries whose economies hinge on oil production and sale...
are going tits up...
big time disruption happening...

If Russia does anything ...
it'll be soon..
before their ability "to" do anything disappears...
regardless...
it is not relevant.
They do something stupid...
expand their territories some more...
upset their neighbours and the global community more...
doesn't matter really...
either there is a final conflict resultant (I would hope not)
or
the entirety of the Russian empire collapses afterward...
Sanity would dictate that they do reforms to stabilize their economy...
What I expect out of the current Russian Kleptocracy is different however...
