Sure, they might have hard currency reserves of dollars and euros, but now they can’t buy the necessary equipment on the open market.

  9. Russian electronics engineers have just announced a breakthrough 1 million nanometer die process. Russia is effed. The suffering Russian people are doubly effed. Hope they can excise Vladimir A. Polyp and recover.
