There may be people buying iPhones for rubles, selling them online for other currencies, and then exchange it back to rubles for a profit. If that is indeed happening, I imagine apple would want to stop it before other markets are affected by side imports.

It's exactly what's been happening for some time in October-November, RUB was devaluing so fast, that it became profitable to buy iphones in Russia and sell them in Europe.

That time they've raised the prices to compensate without closing the shop altogether.
