What does "artificial" even mean here? What part of international loans and payments isn't artificial?
Imposing this kind of consequence is entirely the point of sanctions. Good job.

Sure, but I imagine all of the financial agencies will simply say "oh yeah we know the context for that; and can see you have the $$$ in your account"...
What is the consequence? That they get to keep the $100m they had ready to pay?
The true effects of this will be decades down the line. A default, regardless of how "artificial" it is, will effect their ability to borrow on the international stage for a long time far beyond when this war is over.

How many young people have to die, for the pride and arrogance of silly old fools like this.

Slightly off topic but Microsoft are doing their bit. No windows 10 or 11 downloads or download tools are possible within Russia. There may be workarounds, but even VRM's are being restricted.

Its all about the sanctions, the west don't want them paying their debt and sanctions have made sure that happens.
The financial consequences means they are now a high risk so any lending they now access in the future comes with a much higher interest rate.
At home this is a disaster as their finanial system will now spirral downwards quicker than it was.
The Ruble is worthless anywhere but Russia and that too will now be put under severe pressure.
Their ecomomy will collapse soon and either their is either revolution or nukes will fly. Russia is now the rat trapped in the corner

Why would they do that? Why wouldn't they factor in the major likelihood that Russia will miss future payments unless it radically alters course? Fact is that lending to Russia has got a lot riskier because of sanctions.

@bingham67 - What is this WarMonitor account? Curious really! I am assuming its 'real' by the amount of tweets shared to here etc.
Soldato
To be honest I dont know but it seems to have a big following and posting a lot of info every day so must have a lot of sources within Ukraine.

Or they just post any old crap that they read or make up that sounds plausible to get RTs.

Yeah it seems quite specific so to me, it seems 'true' but I wonder if anyone has checked the facts with what is being reported by the media a short while later.
Interesting tone of voice too..in a good way! Kinda cheeky ha.

Well there video now of snake island being hit this is today cant really fact check other stuff it quite difficult as your talking about in war zones.
Goddam it. How do I get on the sanctions list so W10 doesn't keep trying to update itself?
Soldato
What can be left on snake island to hit? It's so small you would think a couple of bombs dropped by a drone or jet aircraft would be enough to wipe out anything stationed there.
Soldato
Russia keep bringing air defence and other stuff to the Island seems like cannon fodder really wouldnt like to be sent there.
