Yes, dust and smoke, basically. But as for now, take greenbacks in one hand and your worthless roubles in the other and move to one of your 'allies' - India or China - and look on which one will be preferred by the locals.
We don't come to our allies with useless green-colored papers. We come to them with our real resources. It is why they are our allies.
I don't try it with you, my little Ukrainian friend. You'd already failed to recognise all the problems caused by your Maidan and Western "support" (while Russia clearly explained you everything). The only thing I said, is that American decision-makers might be a bit smarter than you, and they won't commit "suicide by the Russians" (and they will make few steps back). If they are not smarter (and it's still pretty possible) - they will finish their existence as Ukraine - under the strikes of Russian missiles and bombs (and some regions annexed). With the only difference that those bombs and missiles will be nuclear.
Yeah, you are selling them raw natural resources cheaply and buying manufactured goods back at inflated prices with Rubles worth less that a US cent. That is what colonies do.
Like India you mean? When they buy your oil by rupees that you can't use or exchange, and then refine and sell it by useless papers around the world. Way to go.
Whatever you say, Yuri. But at first, you should finish with Ukraine, at least. And only then, maybe, your babbling will hold some water.
I've already ordered a pallet full of popcorn and root beer.
Frankly I could care less what he does. My guess is when the money stops he's going to get thrown out of office.

Just read a bit about the structure of China-US international trade.
As if you can see a difference between Russian and Indian T-90M. And no, when Rosneft "sell" its oil for "Indian", but also owned by Rosneft, refinery and then sell gazolin over the world - are those money and goods belong to India or to Rosneft?
Actually, not necessarily. WWI had started before Austria finished Serbia.
Start googling, Taras.
'Half'? That means that your Rosneft owns 49% or 49.99% or 50% minus 1 share? In other words, the company belongs to your Indian 'partners' and your shitty Rosneft will do what it is told to do. Answering your question - this money will stay in India.
Money are dust. But those tanks (and spare parts for them) came in Russia.
Oil in exchange on tanks? Great deal, for India. They are not only get your oil, and keep the money for it with them, but also support their military industry. While stupid Vankas keep being evaporated on the battlefield.
India isn't importing Russian tanks and aircraft anymore. Infact, it is exporting refurbished Russian tanks to get rid of them.
Yes, re-read my post, I meant that. India gets Russian oil (some say with a good discount), keeps money for it on their accounts, and 'sells' military equipment (among other things) to Russia as payment for these money.
It's good for India, it's good for Russian Vankas (its better to have tanks than not to have them), it's good for Russian industrial production either (coz the Army can buy everything and a bit more). It's much better to sell oil and get something useful, like, say, tanks, rather then sell oil and keep money in Western banks (where they can be stolen in any moment). And you know - Tarasiki are paying for all this.
Or, from the other point of view, Rosneft put oil from one their pocket (with the Russian flag) to the other their pocket (with the Indian flag), then sell oil and its products to the western (and others) companies, buy (under Indian flag) useful things (like French thermovisors for their tanks) and bring all those things back to Russia (as if Indian government doesn't know what is happening).
Technically, they are exporting tanks, missiles and other useful things in Russia nowadays.
