A very impressive start for something that many people have questioned.
The domain name рф (romanized as rf[2]) is the internationalized country code top-level domain in the Domain Name System of the Internet for the Russian Federation. In the Domain Name System it has the ASCII DNS name xn--p1ai. The domain accepts only Cyrillic subdomain applications, and is the first Cyrillic implementation of the Internationalizing Domain Names in Applications (IDNA) system. The domain became operational on May 13, 2010.[3]

Also worth noting that рф.com was sold earlier this year for $60,000 to an anonymous buyer.
