- dane-pgp 5y agoDon't you think some fuel tankers in Poland would be happy to take that money (with permission and insurance from the government)? A tanker can carry about 8000 gallons, so that's maybe $32,000 per tanker. The driver might have to be a brave Ukrainian though, if Russia isn't worried about attacking civilian targets.

Just a few months ago I was able to get 100k USD in cash a couple of hours after contacting a local exchanger. Fee was around 1%. Of course they can also sell at any regular international exchange.
