Russia actually can't go on forever. There's a reason they're having to buy bottom of the barrel artillery shells from North Korea of all places. They've had gigantic reserves from the cold war to burn through, but they have been burning through it.

Russia can still produce their own stuff and have been ramping up production pretty well. The economy still works well overall. Russians now buy more Chinese goods. Russia still exports enough to get by.

They won’t collapse any time soon. However their offensive capabilities will suffer.
