This 16-year loan was one of the very last ones of the Soviet Union. Loan capital was huge 15 mrd roubles. During the flourishing years of the Soviet Union the borrowed money was usually used to construction and other useful purposes, but in 1990 there was final phase of that soviet experimentation in operation, and capital was vanishing because of rapid inflation.
In June 1990 Boris Yeltsin declared Russia a sovereign state, which practically meant Soviet Union to come apart.
