He noted that "the Central Bank should not consult with the Kremlin absolutely when choosing banknotes."

"And, of course, why certain cities (will be on banknotes. - RT), this should be asked at the Central Bank, not with us," Peskov said.

Earlier, the Central Bank told about plans to update the design of banknotes until 2025.

Also, the Bank of Russia intends to improve the protection of all paper banknotes.
