“The Central Bank will slowly return the ruble to more acceptable values.
The fact is that such behavior of the ruble has led to the fact that we are dealing a blow to our own budget.
Our budget is balanced at approximately the rate of 71. And the rate of 57-58-59 is a blow to the budget, and the Ministry of Finance suffers, ”explained Ostapkovich.
He also noted that in the near future we should expect a slight strengthening of the dollar, "by ten points."
“I believe that the ideal version of the dollar today is 75-80.
This will suit both the budget and the population,” the economist said.
Earlier, the Ministry of Economic Development said that the strengthening of the ruble had reached its peak.
