Russia`s Deputy Economy Minister Andrei Klepach assumes that the Russian rouble devaluation could only be possible if oil prises drop to around $50—60 per barrel and if a significant capital outflow from Russia takes place.
“We… took in consideration a possible ’A’ scenario… This scenario is to do with an inevitable devaluation of the Russian rouble… But this is only inevitable if oil prices drop to $50—60 per barrel and if the significant capital outflow from Russia takes place”, he said during his briefing on Tuesday.
In 2012 there are no prerequisites for the Russian rouble course to plunge, and Russian Economic Development Ministry does not apprehend that, Klepach added.
