		</div><p>Ukrainian prime minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk has said his country will not repay a €2.75bn debt owed to Russia by this weekend.</p>
<p>Mr Yatsenyuk announced at a televised government session a “moratorium” on any debt repayments to Russia, which effectively means Kiev is defaulting on the debt.</p>
<p>He did not indicate when Ukraine would be ready to repay the debt.</p>
<p>Relations between the two neighbours soured after Russia annexed the Crimean peninsula in March last year and threw its backing behind separatist rebels in eastern Ukraine.</p>
<p>Ukrainian leaders have accused Moscow of sending troops and weapons to the east, a claim the Kremlin has vehemently denied.</p>
<p>Moscow has said it will take Ukraine to court if it fails to pay on time.</p>
