Russia could pay off its entire external debt tomorrow, in cash

Russia’s external debt has been steadily declining, reaching $326.6 billion in December 2023, down from $322.3 billion in the previous quarter and $383.6 billion at the end of 2022, according to bne IntelliNews.

Low external debt means Russia does not need to access international capital markets, so it is not vulnerable to any sanctions on bond issuance, which is easy to apply and enforce.

Combined with Russia’s strong current account surplus, which was up to $5.2 billion in February from $4.5 billion in January, thanks to high oil prices, Russia can easily finance itself with these profits.

Gross international reserves have been rising and are now hovering around $600 billion at the end of the first quarter. Half of these reserves are frozen. About $150 billion is in monetary gold and the rest in yuan.

As a consequence, Russia is able to cover its foreign debt dollar for dollar in cash, while everyone in the West is hugely leveraged, including Ukraine, where the debt-to-GDP ratio is almost 100 per cent.

Economy 101: Seriously, What Drives The Big Economy?

Despite one can dismiss this as another dumb statement from the PAS leader where he openly says that the liberalisation of the capitalist-based economy & not an Islamic one is the root of the suffering of the people, the question is what makes or breaks the economy of the country like how it did in Venezuela?

India's Debt: Not Risky as China's, But rather Still a Concern

India’s debt is a complicated issue with a long history. The country’s debt-to-Gross domestic product proportion has been on a consistent ascent lately, and presently remains at 81.9%. This is like China’s debt-to-Gross domestic product proportion of 83%. In any case, the dangers related with India’s debt are not so perfect as China’s. India has a more youthful populace and a higher development…

Bangladesh’s external debt dropped slightly to $99.3 billion at the end of March 2024, down from $100.6 billion in December 2023, according to Bangladesh Bank data.

INDIA WOUNDED: A BIRD’S EYE VIEW

Compiled By Debaprasad Bandyopadhyay Posted on 12/02/2021 Updated on 01/11/2023 (GMT 15:45 hrs) “If thou cannot save me, why unfurl such deafening arrangements then?” Do you know what is Matsya Nyaya? The Sanskrit word Matsya Nyaya (Sanskrit: मत्स्यन्याय; mātsyanyāya) refers to the principle of the Law of Fish. It is the fundamental law of nature in which the big fish devours the smaller…

How long do you intend to linger, old man? Ensha the ancient, Ensha the elder, how long before what little civilization lingers still in the Lands Between becomes yet another set of ruins no different than all the others dotting the landscape? Will you be witness to the end of this world as you might have the one before it and endure beyond it? Or will you find some place to rest your bones at long last, having had your fill of this unlife?

A tilt of the head—wariness, clearly. A hint of defiance when the armored shoulders straighten, Ensha’s whole stance shifting from his casual watchfulness to something more tense, more vigilant. He signs, the movements flowing but precise, each gesture given thought.

Why not linger? Why not endure? Especially now when the world is about to change—to end, maybe, but also to begin anew? Why not remain to witness that, or even to assist in shaping it? I will rest, eventually, or so I assume. I cannot deny the exhaustion. But to step away now, when there is finally purpose—I don’t think that I will. Not just yet. While I’ve been content to linger in the shadows for a long time… now there is more. I’ve had my life spared and saved more than once, and at great expense; I have been treated like… a person. Someone who matters. I would be ungrateful to lay myself to rest now, and I don’t wish to do it. I will stay for as long as I’m needed—I always have. By choice, this time… and gladly.
