I'm not sure how Russia lasts 1 year, let alone 10, under the current sanctions...

The easy answer is probably because China. The more grim explanation is that they probably don't expect the sanctions will last, once the fighting dies down and long occupation begin some country will probably scale down their sanctions  and some will literally bend over for Russian Oil and Gaz. Also Russia will find ways to mitigate the remaining sanctions.
