Russia calculates Belarus' debt

As of October 2, Belarus owes Russia $6.5 billion, RIA Novosti reports. This is Belarus’ state debt and ‘there are no overdue commitments’, according to Moscow.

For several years, Belarus has failed to get a fresh loan from the International Monetary Fund turning to Russia and other for fiscal resources.

Belarus will have to pay over $5 billion in 2018 to service its foreign debt payments, banki24.by reports.
