The difference is, Russia is not USA. It’s not even USSR; Russia’s economy is (or was) comparable with that of Italy. Russia already lost about half of its tank forces. They can’t start mobilization, because they are running out of officer cadre. They are losing this war.
What worries me more is what happens next. Crumbling Russia will become an useful asset to China; they will probably try to balance that with India - otherwise USA will make sure they cease to be useful as an asset.
And yes, I can easily see Russia paying out reparations in, say, electricity, over the next couple of decides. They are good at building nuclear power plants, and have a lot of land to place them.
