Interesting.
I did read that there are growing social tensions in Russia too. Russia isn't cut off from the world as much as they'd like and the population under 40 are well aware of the world's opinion of Russia and that Russia is beginning to slip behind the economy and infrastructure of Europe. They are tired of being seen as the bad guys too. Essentially they are beginning to turn away from Putin and the Soviet hard line stance.
I can't see this making a huge difference in the short term, but longer term we may see Russia soften a little.
