MOSCOW, Jun 24 (PRIME) -- The U.K. decision to leave the E.U. will have a limited impact on the Russian economy, Finance Minister Anton Siluanov told reporters on Friday.
“For Russia this means a falling oil price, a weakening ruble and growth of the financial markets’ volatility first of all,” Siluanov said. “The influence of this event will be limited.”
He said that Brexit is a warning for Russia to “be ready for negative scenarios of the global economic development” and be conservative in planning.
Siluanov called the U.K. decision a “black swan,” an unexpected event, and said that the global situation is now very fragile and the world is no longer following a steady track of globalization.
