When Lenin took control of the Russian government he canceled all of Russia's debts with two purposes in mind. One was to basically save the cost of repaying foreign loans. The second purpose was to declare, according to Lenin, Russia's independence from imperialist oppression. Additionally, it was a statement that Russia would control its own economic future.
