Lavrov: Russia reduces its reserves in dollars

Moscow seeks to reduce the dependence on the dollar, said the Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, responding to the question of the State Duma deputies.

“We strive to reduce dependence on the dollar, and the Americans actively help us in this because they do almost all possible to undermine confidence in this currency and make it risky in general for international calculations, not only for the Russian Federation, any other world of the world “,” said Russian minister.

Lavrov also reported that Russia sharply reduces its currency reserves in dollars: “We dramatically reduce our currency reserves that are stored in dollars.”
