“The hryvnia is declining every day.
When we launched the dual-currency system, the rate was 1 to 2.5, that is, they gave 2.5 rubles per hryvnia, today it’s already 1.5 rubles, that is, there is a rapid decline, ”TASS quotes him.
At the same time, he noted that the most important thing is that the very need for the hryvnia disappears due to the fact that people receive salaries, pensions in rubles, and conduct economic activities.
“About two-thirds of settlements are made in rubles, maybe even more,” Rogov said.
Earlier, the Kherson region and part of the Zaporozhye region on their territories set a new exchange rate of the Ukrainian hryvnia against the Russian ruble, now it is 1 to 1.5.
