The digital ruble will allow the West to maintain control over the Russian financial system – Khazin
Russia's introduction of a digital ruble will allow the West to maintain control over its financial system.
Economist Mikhail Khazin stated this on the air of the radio station "Moscow Speaks," reports a correspondent for PolitNavigator.
“For example, the story with the digital ruble, which is connected with the fact that when it became clear that sooner or later we would leave the IMF, the West would still really like to control all the processes that are taking place in our financial system. The idea of digital national currencies stems from the fact that they have a single protocol that is transparent to the Bank for International Settlements in Zurich.
That is, this is another way of taking control of us. Of course, nothing prevents us from trying to change the protocol, but not under the current leadership of the Central Bank,” Khazin said.
Meanwhile, earlier his colleague Sergei Glazyev, no less an opponent of liberal financiers, on the contrary, accused the Central Bank of slowing down the introduction of the digital ruble, which, in his opinion, would allow Russia to bypass Western sanctions.
