Russia does not even have the money to pay salaries to the occupying soldiers. Not to mention that the population is not eager to deal with rubles.
The Center for Counteracting Disinformation at the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine confirms information about the aggressor's plans to actively use the hryvnia in the territories of ORDLO.
“This is not another manipulation of the so-called DNR and Russia, but the identification of their economic catastrophe due to sanctions,” the statement said.
According to the occupation plan, in 7-10 days the “government” of ORDLO planned to import the ruble and make an exchange.
“But such a deal requires at least 1.5 billion rubles. And the Russian Federation does not even have the money to pay salaries to the occupying soldiers. After consulting with the Russian Finance Ministry, it was decided to use hryvnias throughout the ORDLO,” the Disinformation Center said.
Another possible goal is the gradual withdrawal of the hryvnia from the population.
In addition, it is noted that the population is also not eager to deal with rubles.
“The population of the temporarily occupied settlements categorically refuses rubles and shows maximum resistance to the aggressors. With such a patriotic mood, the enemy has no chance,” the statement said.
We will remind, earlier the political scientist told why introduction of ruble in a turn in occupied Kherson is a bluff .
