The Russian Federation’s energy chief Pavel Zavalny has floated the possibility of accepting as payment for its oil and gas from “friendly countries” such as China and Turkey.

He said those countries could begin paying for energy in Russian Rubles, Chinese , Turkish Lira — or even Bitcoin (BTC) — rather than the international standard US dollar.
