The Russian central bank said on Sunday that the Greek debt crisis did not pose a threat to the Russian banking system, TASS news agency reported, citing a statement from the central bank's press service.
The central bank also said the size of Russian banks' assets in Greece as of April 1 this year was around $14 million.
"The size of the direct investments of Russia's non-financial sector in the Greek economy is also not large," the bank said in a statement to TASS.
A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
