Again, you can't believe all the quotes and who knows what will really transpire, but this article claims the rouble may stabilise for a little while as the central bank in Russia forces gazprom and the like to sell off currency.

This supply of weapons is flipping risky and going to become a massive issue for Putin, always thought that from day 1. It's going to boil his piss and I really don't trust him to react well.

It will when they all have "Made in China" on em!
