“In recent days, we have seen signs of a shortage of cash currency at the banks. This is due to an increase in population demand for cash currency, ”said the Ukrainian regulator.

It is also indicated that due to the termination of air traffic and border restrictions imposed due to the coronavirus, cash dollars and euros are delivered to Ukraine with a delay.

Earlier, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine tightened liability for violation of quarantine in connection with the coronavirus.

From March 18, Ukraine will suspend the work of the subway, and stop rail, air, bus intercity and interregional transportation.
