Russia is widely hated. Its people should have ridded themselves of Putin at some point, but they didn’t. Putin acted like a civilized person for some time, but he was still a KGB killer and torturer at heart. Now Russia is royally screwed.
“Now Russia is royally screwed.”
Until either cancer or assassination takes Putin out, Russia will continue this downward spiral.
There is a 24/7/365 media propaganda war against Russia. Idiots read and automatically believe.

You are assuming the vote is accurate, no??
Now Russia is royally screwed.
I don't think so. All the west has done is accelerate the adoptation of a new currency for half the world and the Western deb-based economies fade.
The BRICS have what they need, and are discussing an alternative system to prevent the West from hurting them like they have done by throwing Russia out of SWIFT and stealing Russian Reserves.
There are other nations in the fold other than Brazil, Russia, India, China. Eventually, it is likely that many South American countries will default on the western debt that enslaves them and the BRICS will be waiting with new banking relationships, currency, infrastructure. Once the first nation does this, it will be revealed that there is a way out to a new life.
Just watch.
