Not quite, its 38.7% by nominal GDP. And you can remove Japan and several other countries from the potential markets for Russian exports. It doesn't make sense to just export to Asia instead of Europe, how long is it going to take to build new pipelines to get Russias main export to Asia?Asian economy collectively is larger then the rest of worlds economy. Makes sense for Russia to redirect exports to Asian nations from Europe. Europe is the biggest loser from this conflict.

I feel bad about Ukrainian army. All they can do is hit and run. This army is really outgunned. What was their leadership doing all of those years and didn't prepare their armed forces for battle like this one?
Ukrainian leadership has really missed a great opportunity: They should've opted non-aligned status and refused any Western influences that were setting them against Russia. With such an apparent weakness, they should've opted as the same status as Switzerland, Finland, and Sweden.
How are they going to deliver their primary export, natural gas, to Asian markets?They got sanctioned by the EU and kicked out swift.......they have to work through Asia now.
