“We can sell the money at such rate, but this is not enough"
Minskers complain about the new dollar rate while queueing to exchange offices: it is high and low at the same time!
“We have only Belarusian roubles”, - claims the cashier in the BelSwissBank's currency exchange office.
Money changers wander about near the currency exchange office in the pedestrian
subway. There are no ordinary clients and no currency as well. Money changers
react to the new rate calmly.
“What can we do about it - I am
trading here", - one of the money-changers has said. His
talkativeness incensed his mate-money changer.
Money changer: “Don't
stand there; you are scaring the people away”.
There is a queue of three people on the "Central" store. The rate remains unchanged at the moment of 11 a.m. in the currency exchange office of "Belarusbank". A youngster who is standing in the queue first is ready to buy currency for a new price - he is going to Romania for a vacation.
He has spent the whole night in this queue. People have to stay outside when the store is closed. However, it is still impossible to buy currency.
The youngster: “What can we do about it? Belarusian rouble is dying step by step”.
