 NewsRSSUkrainian government imposes moratorium on Dec 2015 Russian eurobond
18 of December 2015 г.
Pursuant to the current legislation and debt liabilities assumed, Ukraine announced a moratorium on any payments of the Russian debt, including payment of $3 billion borrowed under Viktor Yanukovych's presidency and which reaches maturity in December 2015, Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk said during an extraordinary meeting of the government, UNIAN reports.
"The Ukrainian government has imposed a moratorium on payments of the so-called "Russian debt." Once again I would like to remind that Ukraine [in November 2015] successfully completed a debt operation negotiated with a representative committee of bondholders. Due to the fact that Russia refused, despite our numerous efforts to sign a restructuring agreement, to accept our offer, the Cabinet is introducing a moratorium to suspend payments of the December 2015 eurobonds to the tune of $3.075 billion. This moratorium also encompasses Ukraine’s sovereign-guaranteed loans for Ukravtodor and Yuzhnoye owed to the Russian banks," Yatsenyuk said. Total debt subject to the moratorium exceeds $3.58 billion. The Prime Minister stressed that any payments under the above-mentioned debts to Russia totaling $3.58 billion would be stopped from today "until the acceptance [by Russia] of Ukraine's restructuring offer or the issuance of the relevant court decision." "Again, I emphasize that we are ready for litigation with Russia," Yatsenyuk said.
