Economists explain why there is no need to dash to exchange offices and when USD and Euro will stop growing.
Prime Minister Andrei Kabyakou says the population of Belarus sold foreign currency worth of nearly $1.5 billion this year.
Belarus' central bank head assures the national currency will remain stable despite objective risks.
The euro exchange rate has also increased.
Belarusians have sold $541 million more than bought since early this year, says National Bank.
The euro and dollar race sharply higher against the Belarus ruble, while the Russian ruble to Belarus ruble has dropped on Monday.
This was announced by chairman of the Belarusian Currency and Stock Exchange Andrei Aukhimenia.
The euro rate also rose, but only a little.
