  • Putin addresses Russia amid financial crisis

    Putin addresses Russia amid financial crisis
    December 18, 2014 - Moscow, Russia: Russian President Vladimir Putin addresses economic concerns during an annual press conference. The national address comes amid growing concerns of a financial crisis as the price of crude oil and Western sanctions against Russia over the Ukraine crisis are being blamed for plunging the ruble to a record low against dollar and euro. Putin said the Russian economic crisis could last two years, in the question-and-answer session that lasted for three hours. The Russian president's news conference addressed concerns about the ruble, which has been fluctuating wildly this week. The central bank made an emergency decision to raise interest rates to 17 per cent to stabilize the currency and also introduced measures to support its banking system amid a rush by Russians to convert rubles into dollars and euros. Discussing the dramatic decline of the ruble, he said the economy could recover faster if external factors change for the better. Putin also used his conference to insist Moscow wants to restore political unity to Ukraine, while warning Kiev that it must respect all its regions if it wanted peace. The press conference saw the President answer questions ranging from economic recovery to concerns over his love life. (Polaris) (FOTO:DUKAS/POLARIS)
