Sanctions are supposed to stop Russia from being aggressive but how come SGD crashing like sai?

Biden at first says that sanction for prevention, stop Russia and when it didn't stop, Biden change tune to say sanctions cannot stop him.

I'm confused.

Seems like sanctions stop sanctions.

Its a balance of payments issue. There are mostly exports, assume no imports for russia.
And hence a 98billion current account surplus.

Who cares about roubles when we don't buy anything from Russia?

So long as sgd holds peg to usd aussie yuan and strength against RM and baht for our food, I don't care what happens with rouble

It's possible Russia burning their reserves to make it look like rubles is strong, but it's actually rubble after the reserves burn finish...

It's only oil and gas lah. And as part of the sanctions we also haven't been buying Russian
