I don't know how much of their fleet they actually own. A large part of their
fleet is leased and has been recalled. The owners want their aircraft back.

Russia does not intend to give them back, they might pay in rubles or
something.. ;)

Russia gets what it deserves.

Russia could, if they wanted to stand up and rejoin the world community. So
far they seem to have other plans.
