The economist paid special attention to the fact that exchange rates in their basic version always depend on the general state of the country's economy.
“Because the general state of the country's economy then determines both foreign trade positions and market positions ... Now the Russian economy is in a state of adaptive calm with signs of an improvement in the situation.
There is no disaster.
The American economy (although there have been crisis phenomena and it is not in a very good position), nevertheless, is in a stable state.
All this indicates that the exchange rate of the ruble against the dollar or the dollar against the ruble cannot change radically, ”said the interlocutor of RT.
In his opinion, the "anchor" value of the rate will be the figure of 61 rubles per dollar.
“Of course, under the influence of some opportunistic and informational stuffing, it can deviate.
But if there are fluctuations, then no more than a ruble in one direction or another… No radical changes are expected during the week.
And I think that by the end of the year, too, ”concluded Belyaev.
Earlier, the press service of the Central Bank of Russia reported that the share of the euro and the dollar in Russia's external payments decreased from 79% at the beginning of this year to almost 50%.
