Well you need to actually get somehow paper to print rubbles. >

From the article “At the same time, it is noted that debt repayment shall not be considered a reason for the resumption of supplies in case of non-compliance by the foreign buyer with the order introduced in March. That is, gas payments in roubles.”  ….. Meaning you can pay off money you owe for gas you already received in foreign currency. But to continue gas imports and avoid disruptions you still have to pay in rubbish.  I mean rubles.
