“Now everyone is worried about the jumps in the dollar or the euro against the ruble.

The exchange rate depends on several factors: on the general state of the economy of one and the other country, on how this economy looks in the foreign market, and on everything related to the movement of capital, news reports, and so on,” the economist said.

He noted that the ruble exchange rate is based on the economy, which is in the adaptation period.

“Our economy is kind of on pause.

She goes through a period of adaptation and adapts to new working conditions.

And I must say, quite successfully.

Maybe not as fast as we would like, but nevertheless there is an adaptation and it is quite stable.

Unlike the American and, moreover, the Western European economy, which are close to a crisis state.

This explained the depreciation of the dollar and the euro against the ruble,” Belyaev added.

In his opinion, the strengthening of the ruble was also facilitated by the fact that, although not directly, it participates in the international payment turnover.

“Since economic factors are close to exhaustion, it means that a further fall in the dollar against the ruble is unlikely to be noticeable in the near future.

I think that, most likely, there will be a certain correction ... An increase in the dollar against the ruble is possible within 65 rubles per dollar, ”concluded the interlocutor of RT.

Earlier, Maxim Oreshkin, Assistant to the President of Russia for Economic Affairs, during his speech at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, called the dollar a drug that the world was addicted to.
