Again, I just don't that happening any time soon, given Russia's state security apparatus. Despite all this talk of economic implosion, the Ruble has actually strengthened against the Dollar this week. If it happens all well and good (to an extent - see my previous post about being careful what you wish for), but the focus should be on helping Ukraine stop and then somehow reverse the invasion.
