When your economy is ~60% resources, you're eco is fragile and honestly, that site doesn't even support your position. Losing EU and UK as trading partners is going to substantially injure them (it will also hit the EU and UK). Russian economy isn't as diversified as you might think.

Let me reword, if your exports are mostly resources, your economy is fragile. https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2019/03/14/russias-natural-resources-valued-at-60-of-gdp-a64800

Using Exports as the sole measure of the robustness of the economy really tells me that you don't know much about economics.
