MOSCOW, April 16 (Reuters) - Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov said on Friday he was confident that Russia will tap the global debt market this year and was considering a euro-denominated Eurobond despite new U.S. sanctions.

Siluanov, speaking on state TV, said non-residents among holders of OFZ treasury bonds slid below 20% and may decline further but this does not create substantial risks for Russia’s borrowing.
