A compromise on the debt of Ukraine in the amount of $3 billion is possible in the case that another country will buy it in Moscow with money or their securities. This was announced today, 16 November, Deputy Finance Minister Sergei Storchak.
“Theoretically it could be money, or securities of any other sovereign who is ready to take on demands owing to its special relations with Ukraine, they should be able to move in search of a compromise solution. Still, the workload associated with the return of three billion dollars, a significant burden on any budget. We understand this very well”, he added.
