Russia Mulls to Use of National Currencies More in Ops With Iran - Novak
14:57 GMT 04.10.2018 (Updated: 15:22 GMT 04.10.2018) MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Russia is considering the possibility of increasing the share of national currencies in financial transactions with Iran, Energy Minister Alexander Novak said on the sidelines of the Russian Energy Week forum on Thursday.
"Since we do not support sanctions, we believe that we should continue to cooperate with Iran. We are considering mechanisms to increase mutual payments in national currencies, bypassing the US dollar," Novak said in an interview with Russia's Business-FM radio.
