Russian default no longer 'improbable', but no trigger for global financial crisis- IMF
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Russia may default on its debts in the wake of unprecedented sanctions over its invasion of Ukraine, but that would not trigger a global financial crisis, International Monetary Fund Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva said on Sunday.
Georgieva told CBS's "Face the Nation" program that sanctions imposed by the United States and other democracies were already having a "severe" impact on the Russian economy and would trigger a deep recession there this year.
The war and the sanctions would also have significant spillover effects on neighboring countries that depended on Russia energy supplies and had already resulted in a wave of refugees compared to that seen during World War Two, she said.
Russia calls its actions in Ukraine a “special operation.”
