Volodin noted the gradual loss of dependence on the dollar by Russia

“For example, within the EAEU, settlements in national currencies have grown to 74%.

We are systematically increasing trade in national currencies with China and Turkey, ”RIA Novosti quoted Volodin as saying.

Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that Europe is beginning to think about the need to move away from dollar dependence.

According to Lavrov, more and more countries will soon try to switch to mechanisms that will rely on national currencies in the implementation of financial calculations.
