Recent days have shown that the Russian ruble has regained its positions in the foreign exchange market and returned to almost pre-war value against the US dollar.. However, the Russians should not be happy about this, because the consequences of the sanctions will catch up with them in the relatively near future.. German Ambassador to Ukraine Anka Feldhusen said this in an interview with Commander-in-Chief.

“The effect of these sanctions will intensify over the weeks and months. In addition, you saw how many firms voluntarily left the Russian market, and the Russians will soon feel the result of the sanctions, not only because of the McDonald's burger, but also other things,” explained Ms..

At the same time, the Ambassador did not evaluate the fact that a number of German companies continue to operate in Russia: Metro, Globus, Bayer, Henkel, Knauf.

" This needs to be clarified in our Industrial Chamber of Commerce,” said the Ambassador.

Recall that the strengthening of the Russian currency is facilitated by a sharp decrease in the volume of imports to the Russian Federation and, as a result, a decrease in demand for foreign currency from importers.
