Russia previously insisted on completing payments in rubles.

Russia appeared to narrowly avoid default on Friday as it paid off a number of overdue international debts in dollars, reversing its recent policy requiring transactions occur in rubles.

The finance ministry said it paid $564.8 million on a 2022 Eurobond and $84.4 million on a 2042 bond in dollars, as specified on the bonds, Reuters reported.

Prednisone Putin folded and coughed up the dollars at the last minute. What a loser.

He’s now getting so much money from energy that paying that debt isn’t even noticeable. And he has only the West to thank for that!

Yes, it is terrible... Under Putin's leadership Russia's national debt has ballooned to $280.12 billion. Meanwhile the US national debt is now

$30.5 Trillion with unfunded liabilities bringing the real number to several times that. But going with the official government figures we owe $30.22 Trillion more than the Russians and you believe that they are the ones with the problem? They just made $9.6 Billion more than they would have in April alone because of rising energy prices and there currently is no end in sight. At the current rate of increase in the money being shoveled their direction... if they wanted to they could pay of their entire national debt in a year or two just with the huge increase in funds being provided by the Biden administration's bungling of our domestic energy policies... They are the loser's... dream on.

Europe is buying more gas from Russia than ever. I guess those sanctions ween’t worth internal problems.That said, if the Joe Biden regime promised you anything would you believe it?

Liars and phonies can smell each other out.
