It is an inconvenience but they will just go to Macau, Dubai and anywhere else East. Russia isn't like North Korea, it has a huge amount of natural resources and has a natural resource hungry neighbour, he has made the calculation he can pivot East to survive. Which kind of flies in the face of his rhetoric that losing Ukraine is what made Russia lose it's place in Europe and why he wants it back.
An example being he has probably lost Nordstream 2 but will offset some of that loss with the proposed Power of Siberia 2 pipeline. That pipeline would allow them to redirect their western oil fields that feed Europe to China.
