Russia's central bank announced emergency measures on November 28, 2024 after the ruble slumped to its lowest level against the US dollar in over two-and-a-half years. The central bank said Wednesday it would stop purchasing foreign currency on the domestic foreign exchange market from Thursday until the end of the year.
