How much? E.g. in early 1992 monthly stipend of a student - something which he could somehow survive for a month (not quite, too low, but somewhat close) was about 60 roubles. And the USD-RUR course was 100 roubles for a dollar. So a person was barely - very barely - surviving on 7 dollars 20 cents a year.

Do you know how much Russian economy costed at the time?

Somebody pays eventually. We are all paying for it right now, plus interest.

Absolutely. And we will likely pay for similar situations with Hungary, Turkey, China...
