Jérôme, do you think that Russia's close financial relationship to the UK means that they will be influenced by this affliction?

I'm not sure I would describe Russia's financial relationship with the UK as "close" - sure, there's a lot of Russian money in London, but it's still small beer compared to the overall Russian economy, or even Russian wealth abroad.

But in any case, Russia has plentiful commodities, and these are unlikely to lose much value these days, so I would not worry too much about Russia's economy yet - at least not because of the financial crisis.

In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes
