Ukrainian hryvnia will simultaneously circulate in the region due to
the declining value of the hryvnia, Crimean vice premier Rustam
Temirgaliyev announced.
"Amid declining value of the hryvnia and the possibility of default in Ukraine we have to reconsider the terms of operating two-currency system in the region. We discuss the possibility of a withdrawal of hryvnia in a short period of time"- he said.
“We discuss the possibility of a significant withdrawal of hryvnia in case of unrestricted exchange of the ruble and hryvnia along with deposit compensation from Ukrainian banks in Crimea Deposit Insurance Agency (DIA). DIA already opening its offices in Crimea”- Temirgaliev added.
