All Russian hydrocarbons will be quickly replaced (1-3 years). But they are definitely not the object of envy. Did you envy Iran "oil for food"?Sorry being the 2nd most producer of the world most valuable commodity, oil and largest producer of fertilizer which has the most impact on food production and prices makes you a heavy political player and weight. Not to mention its thousands of nukes, etc. Brazil does not have more political weight than Russia. That alone tells me of your wishful thinking about Russia.
I already spoke about the nuclear potential: Putin is not a suicide and will not risk releasing a "nuclear genie." He will cling to life until his last breath.
