“The level of integration is still insufficient... In general, this needs to be done, and as we move along this integration track, it may be possible to introduce a single currency,” RIA Novosti quotes him.

At the same time, Medvedev stressed that one should not "run ahead" on this issue.

“And by the way, we never talked about this, that let's introduce a single ruble and everything will work out.

The single currency is, after all, a consequence of a good unification of economies, their alignment, and this is how, for example, the euro appeared,” he added.

Earlier, Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko said that Russia and Belarus have not yet come to the creation of a single monetary currency.
