The self-proclaimed Donetsk people's Republic is ready to consider abandoning the multi-currency system in the country, only if Kiev will remove the economic blockade of Donbass, said the Finance Ministry DND.

Basic foreign money remained the national currency, but the payments, as well as among them the collection of taxes and payment of benefits are carried out in Russian rubles, us dollars and euros.

at the end of summer the Ministry of economic development DNR reported that the Russian rouble became the main currency of the Republic, its share is 90% of the total currency in the statement.
