So the Russians tried to pay their creditors, and Biden said no.

Go sanctions! Go Biden!

LOL. That's exactly what appears to be the case.

It's like a landlord demanding a rent payment from a commercial tenant ... after the landlord basically put the tenant out of business by tearing up the parking lot and the sidewalk in front of the building.

Pretty much.

The Russians have given instructions to pay. The only reason to refuse access to those funds is if someone has already spent them.

That’s a meaningless gesture to declare “default” on media. Anything but default in real life.

Biden andthe Dems have already destroyed the world economy and any trust in the banking system and contracts…what more does he need for his fragile old man’s ego?

No doubt all we’re seeing has nothing to do with Ukraines war - that’s just the floor the economic war, the real war, is being fought on. Biden and Europe are going to destroy the owrlds economy so they can replace it with what is far more sinister.
