US banks and individuals will be barred from accepting bond payments from Russia’s government after 12:01 a.m. New York time on Wednesday, when a license that has so-far allowed the cash to flow ends, Treasury said in a statement on Tuesday.

The decision to go forward ending the carveout indicates that the US would rather force Russia -- under a slew of punishing sanctions over its war in Ukraine -- into default than allow the nation to drain its coffers to the benefit of US investors.

Not all payments to Americans are barred after May 25. According to a license issued by Treasury on April 7, US investors have until June 30 to divest from Russian financial institution Alfa-Bank AO and until July 1 to divest from diamond company Alrosa PJSC.
