Per Politico:
The Treasury Department will no longer allow Russia to make payments on its debt using dollars held at U.S. banks, stepping up its efforts to choke off financial resources for President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. The Treasury had already moved to freeze Russian government assets held at U.S. institutions, but now it won’t allow Moscow to access those dollars even to meet its obligations to bondholders, moving the government nearer to default.
