“As the financial system stabilizes, foreign exchange restrictions are gradually being eased, and, in my opinion, most of them should be lifted,” TASS quoted her as saying.

According to the First Deputy Chairman of the Central Bank Ksenia Yudaeva, the Bank of Russia plans to maintain the current restrictions on the purchase of cash currency until September.

Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov, in an interview with Naila Asker-zade on the Vesti program on the Russia 1 channel, said earlier that the Russian authorities would lift internal financial restrictions as the situation normalized.
