Russia doesn’t really care about Western money anymore. They can’t spend it due to the sanctions anyway.

They absolutely do. The sanctions are very far from impenetrable. They can buy pretty much anything they could before, only at slightly higher prices.

Think about what you're saying here: Vladimir Putin, famously corrupt head of a mafia state, doesn't care about money!
