Pffft, why should the Russians be upset, they can just sell some more! (Unless they had them under warranty >.> lol)

As long as the US is the leading economy, and the fiat currency holder; China and everyone goes down with us. China and others know this, that's why there are quite a few "I'll take your currency if you take mine" swaps going on under our radar. China. Russia, Australia, Brazil, etc..

Unfortunately, WE own most of our debt ($85B a month Fed buyouts), not China...
