At the end of May, the US Treasury did not renew the license that allowed Western investors to receive debt payments on Russian sovereign bonds. Yellen had noted a few days earlier that if Moscow did not find a way to continue making these payments and went through a technical default, then this was unlikely to significantly change her position. “After all, it is already cut off from the global capital market,” the minister explained.

The absence of a license allowed the Russian Ministry of Finance to bring money to any holders of Russian international bonds denominated in US dollars, and if they are denominated in euros, then at least to American investors.

State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin then said that "the United States and its satellites" should "get used to the ruble" since Moscow would pay off the public debt in Russian currency.
