The US Congress cannot find a solution to the budget problem, resulting in a daily economic loss of $300 million. Sergey Oznobishchev, Director of the Institute for Strategic Studies, said that a lot of Russian funds were stored in US securities. He believes that international dependence of the world on US dollar may save the US from another crisis.
The expert explained that the US Congress did not want to let the government print more dollars. He predicts that the situation will not change in the next couple of weeks.
Oznobishchev said that Congress could raise the limit of the governmental debt the way it had been done a year ago and it would not make a difference.
The official sees no connection between the budget problem and President Barack Obama's threats to start a war in Syria. The agreements made by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and US Secretary of State John Kerry prevented the war.
