Russia lost access to half of its reserves due to the increased pressure from the West on China, said Russia’s Minister of Finance Anton Siluanov. “The total volume of our reserves is USD 640 billion, and about USD 300 billion are in such condition that we cannot use them now”, Minister Siluanov told the state television on Sunday. ”The western countries are putting pressure on China to limit the access to reserves in yuan. Russia will repay its external obligations in rubles until its gold and foreign exchange reserves are unfrozen”, Anton Siluanov said further.
