Russia is demanding full repayment of a tiny, Soviet-era loan it gave to Nepal
(Рашка требует от Непала возвращение древнего долга в $1.16 млн)
Russia has signed an agreement with the government of Nepal for the repayment of a $1.16 million Soviet-era loan.
It is not clear why Russia is bothering to collect such a small, old debt. But given Russias troubles — its currency has collapsed along with its economy, and Russias own foreign debts are now crippling it — and the mercurial nature of president Vladimir Putin, it is temping to read the Nepal agreement as a sign of … something.
