Today Russia's foreign debt before other countries - is "inherited" from the Soviet Union.Of course, the former Union acted not only as the borrower, and the lender, but because of a lack of hard currency, which it was possible to pay for goods supplied and services rendered, had to resort to borrowing from other countries.
The main difference between the debts of other countries to the Russian Federation is the fact that our country was represented by loans in the form of commodities (arms, fuel), while Russia's debt is expressed in dollars.The largest increase in debt related to the years of crisis, when the country was unable to pay current debts, piling on new and old, plus accrued penalty payments.Over the past year Russia's debt to other countries grew by 15.4% and amounted to 623.963 monetary billion.
Most of the debt is owed to the banking sector - 208.37 billion dollars.Why is that?The fact is that due to the recent crisis, somehow tapping and our country, in 2012, the entire market has grown at the expense of the state, so borrowing in this situation is a right decision.Moreover, the increased debt of Russia poses no threat to the economy.So experts say.If
express Russia's debt to other countries in the GDP, it turns out that the mark is at 20%.If we compare the situation in the world arena, where many European countries this mark long crossed the level of 100%, the Russian Federation in this case is in a favorable zone there is no risk of economic crisis.Analysts say that the only negative point in this situation can be called the growth of corporate debt, including the banking sector.But then calm: it means that this year can be accurately expect the CBR to tighten policy of banking activities in order to reduce risks.
Despite the increase in debt to European countries and Russia in the past decade has made a huge amount of "gifts" to other countries, writing off someone of the debt, and someone, and the whole amount.Such profligacy caused and still causes a lot of disputes and grievances on the part of not only politicians, but also ordinary citizens of our country.Of course, on the one hand, this is a big step towards the establishment of strong trade and economic relations with countries based on trust, and increase the number of our allies.But on the other - in the history of anybody and I never forgave Russia dime, a penny, a penny, even in the years when the country was "on his knees".The only help - giving the same loan, for which you had to pay with a vengeance!
But Russia's domestic debt is impressive for its size - at the end of last year it amounted to 4.06 trillion rubles.And in the coming years, the Ministry of Finance will repay the debt data, which has already drawn up a corresponding program for the next 25 years.The share of state from all this amount is just the smallest part.So, the debt of the banking sector is more than $ 200 billion, the debt business or "other sectors" - 356 billion dollars.
But, as mentioned above, our debt - it's flowers.For example, the size of the external debt of the United States - more than 10 trillion dollars!In America, for one day the amount of debt accumulates 4 billion!Thus, the US debt Russia is more than $ 60 billion.And this is our country so far for all the world is unstable and underdeveloped ...
