charts in section on exchange rates

These show the value of other currencies. More interesting would be the value of the rouble in, say, dollars. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.44.109.196 (talk) 13:24, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

The charts in this section are plotting the number of rubles per dollar, and the number of rubles per euro, and are therefore mislabeled. They should be labeled, ″Number of one Russian rubles per U.S. dollar between 2014-2017" and "Number of Russian rubles per Euro from 2005", respectively. With an exchange rate of 32.6587 rubles/US dollar on 01 January 2014, the "cost" of a Russian ruble in US dollars would have been 1/32.6587, or 0.0306 US dollars (i.e., 1 ruble was worth 3 US cents).
