SENATE PANEL PASSES UKRAINE BILL INCLUDING AID TO UKRAINE, SANCTIONS ON RUSSIANS AND UKRAINIANS; BILL NOW HEADS TO FULL SENATE FOR VOTE

Headline coming from Zerohedge. Putin's aides had threatened to instruct their bond traders to sell bonds in the market and to fail paying back debt owed to the US but I doubt that is possible, it would set a bad precedent for Russia in the debt market which would make their borrowing costs rise hence hurt their economy imho.
