“Taking into account the fulfillment of external or internal obligations, gold and foreign exchange reserves stood at $6.9 billion as of 1 April. At the end of the year, taking into account projected receipts and payments, we expect the reserves to exceed $6 billion. This will be equal to two months of imports of goods and services,” Pavel Kallaur said.
