re: Can we make money in Russia's stock market?

Not much to say. I mentioned it on here before about placing a position in Russian stocks. It's a risky play, and I placed some funds in Russian stocks. Indirectly and directly on MICEX and some individual companies. Also a play on their currency mostly as insurance.

I don't take a lot of risky positions, but when I do I usually commit to it long term and understand many times it's an all or none proposition.

I took the position when things looked very bad over there. Not to say it can't get worse, and worse quickly.
