Speaking of the crash of the ruble =- the below is against the USD though other currency comparisons show essentially the same:

5Yr results:



Zooming in to 2yr results:



Zooming in again to last 12mths:



Turning to a comparison with the Chinese Yuan given China is Russia's largest trading partner:

One of the challenges will be that there are 2 possibly 3 countries that I suspect would not be willing to assist.

True enough but it's entirely possible that individual nations could band together, outside the NATO remit, to form a coalition of the willing. I think the UK, Poland, Finland, Sweden and the Baltic nations would definitely be part of such a coalition. The challenge is whether the US joins the party. Without the latter's logistics, C2, and intelligence capabilities, any such coalition would be severely hobbled.
