The Russian ruble had fallen to unprecedented levels following US sanctions on Russia, though it gained ground after President Vladimir Putin had announced that his country would only accept payments in rubles for gas deliveries to "unfriendly countries" in a nod to all EU members in light of the harsh round of sanctions they imposed on Moscow.

The appreciation of the ruble against the USD and the euro is mainly due to Putin's decision, as following his announcement, Russia's ruble rose in the face of the USD and the euro, marking a major hike since the currency took a dive against the western currencies due to the sanctions imposed on the country.

The sanctions the EU is imposing on Russia are over its special military operation in Ukraine, launched due to NATO's eastward expansion, the Ukrainian shelling of Donbass, and the killing of the people of the Donetsk People's Republic and Lugansk People's Republic, in addition to Moscow wanting to "denazify" and demilitarize Ukraine.

In response, the US and its allies have rolled out comprehensive sanctions, including restrictions on the Russian central bank, export control measures, SWIFT cutoff for select banks, and closure of airspace to all Russian flights. Many of their companies have suspended their Russian operations.
