Russia To Continue Selling Off US Bond

Russia will continue to sell off U.S. Treasuries, as mentioned by Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov.

Between March and May, Russia trimmed its U.S. Treasury holdings by $81 billion, which is 84% of its total US debt holdings.

Siluanov’s statement on Russian state television network Russia One comes amidst the recent round of U.S. sanctions on Russia under a chemical and biological warfare law.
