Russia's plans to sell gas for rubles did not suit buyers

.... We should recall that, according to the logic of the Russian authorities, the transition to payment in rubles is a consequence of the freezing of Russian foreign exchange reserves in the US and the EU. The state considers such a step as a de facto default of the financial institutions of the Western countries to the Russian Federation. Under these conditions, "unfriendly" countries will have to buy rubles from Russia in order to pay for energy resources with them. Russian experts believe that in this case, "Gazprom" will be put in a situation of shortage of foreign exchange earnings. At the same time, for a number of projects carried out by the concern abroad, dollars and euros are necessary.
