With cost of “black gold” at 15-23 dollars per barrel, the USSR economy collapsed, and the sovok itself collapsed, and the "golden" horde ("russia") budget can only be fulfilled only with oil price at $ 42.4 and higher.

The currency has lost around 5% this week alone amid some of the biggest sell-offs on global markets since ....

Oil prices — a key influence on Russia’s financial health — have dropped 10% since Monday as concerns spread about another potential supply glut as the outlook for the economy weakens. Lower mobility levels and weaker production generally mean less demand for the black stuff. With Russia, Saudi Arabia and other OPEC+ members not set to meet until the end of November to discuss their future oil production plans, prices tumbled to $37 a barrel in Friday trading — the lowest level in five months.

Russia’s stock market was also down by 0.7% on Friday in dollar-terms, sinking to its lowest reading in six months..... “The re-emergence of geopolitical tensions in the summer, relating in particular to the crisis in Belarus and the poisoning of Navalny, has weighed on Russian assets, especially the ruble,” said Deutsche Bank analysts in a research note this week.

Russia has been a disaster all along, an old jalopy that has been doomed to the trash heap. Putin is only relevant because he's so aggressive geopolitically, trying to matter. He must be betting he can bring down the West before Russia's time is up.

" Unlike Turkey, which openly supports Azerbaijan in an effort to regain the disputed territories, Russia, which is an official ally of Armenia and has a military base on the territory of this country, is in no hurry to intervene in the conflict, limiting itself to calls for a ceasefire.
...


we see that Russia has become so weakened r
ecently as a result of Putin's numerous adventures, as a result of engaging in wars in Ukraine, Syria, Africa, as a result of sanctions, conflicts of various kinds, poisoning, as a result of this chaotic policy. Putin's Russia has weakened its authority so much that, in fact, this war shows that Turkey is the regional leader in the Caucasus, not Russia. And Russia is afraid of any active actions at all, even statements on this matter,that is, he is afraid to state his position. "

Russia is in conflict with the whole world, is involved in such a number of problematic issues that authority, influence has all been lost, and Russia is now really afraid of Turkey, because any form of confrontation with Turkey would mean a fairly quick elimination of Putin's Syrian adventure. Putin has embarked on an adventure in Syria that is absolutely senseless for him, and naturally, Turkey now has a very convenient leverage to influence Moscow. With this Russian adventure, the Russian group in Syria hostage, Erdogan can absolutely calmly, with impunity and confidently dictate to Russia new rules of the game in the Caucasus. Therefore, I think that Russia will not intervene. Turkey, it seems to me, will not conduct a direct military invasion from its territory,but will provide Azerbaijan with full assistance and, from an international legal point of view, will generally use this situation. From the point of view of international law, the liberation of the so-called "buffer zone" by Azerbaijan is an absolutely impeccable story, and therefore Aliyev and Erdogan, of course, are clearly playing it out. And I think that here they will move on


(In 1993, the inclusion of the "buffer zone" by Nagorno Karabakh in its composition was qualified by the UN Security Council as the occupation of the territory of Azerbaijan by local Armenian forces. - Note RS) .
