With Wagner’s exile to Belarus, Unilever could be Putin’s next PMC if their employees do well enough on the battlefield. Maybe that’s where they think the real profit will start coming in /s
It’s because you cannot sell rubles for dollars because nobody outside the black market accepts them. You can buy them tho, so Russian banks can put any price they want to get the big money from some idiots who want to try some war profiteering. It also generates the illusion that the sanctions against Russia are not working, which is food for the propaganda machine.
With the absolute shitshow that the Ruble is I don’t see how staying in the country and doing business could be profitable.

But Putin says 80 rubles are a dollar. You’ll have to take his word tho, trading them is impossible.
Strange Google says that it’s either 11 rubles to the dollar or one ruble is .11¢ depending on when you look.
