According to Raksha, the ruble does, in a sense, follow oil, but this is not the only factor that affects the rate of the Russian currency.
“The exchange rate of the ruble, first of all, is made up of the balance of supply and demand in the foreign exchange market,” the economist said.
He also expressed the opinion that the trend of depreciation of the ruble "will continue at the end of this year and in the first half of next year."
Earlier, Natalya Milchakova, a leading analyst at Freedom Finance Global, made a forecast regarding the behavior of the dollar and the euro in an interview with FAN.
