Quite a big chunk of the world is happy to deal business with Russia and they are not that isolated.
Russia is also working to remove Taliban from list of terrorist states.

This is how they deceive your lot and have you live in delusion.
True. But there is support to replace the unipolar with multipolar world. So no one of the big and medium players outside the first world will be too sad to see that the massive amounts of face USA and EU have put on the line in Ukraine are lost.
