From the article:
“Investors breathed a sigh of relief last month after the Russian government made a $117 million interest payment on its foreign debt.
But a much bigger payment comes due April 4 — to the tune of $2.2 billion — and creditors are far less optimistic Russia will pony up this time.
“The last payment was a small investment in credibility, but when Russia has to start writing billion-dollar checks, it’s a different calculation,” Jay Newman, former Elliott Management portfolio manager and author of “Undermoney,” told The Post.
“I don’t think it’s realistic that Russia comes up with the $2.2 billion.””
Putin will make the $2.2 billion payment out of the “frozen” dollar reserves with another special waiver from Dementia Joe. You can count on it.
