Ask yourself "who said they shut their banks?", "who said their currency was worthless?". The Ruble is down vs $, but still works fine in Russia. Russia has a shit load of GOLD. They are currently transacting in GOLD for oil and gas sales. They also have shit load of nickle, which went to the moon yesterday and today, and palladium which is up from 1800 to >3000 for the year. They are not at all worried.
