“I just answer your question. I support the policy of the Central Bank to ensure macroeconomic stability. With every desire can not just raise rates, we must proceed from the situation. There, over the hill, price other economic structure is different. To lower the rate, we should not hush in the Central Bank, and to help him and the government to suppress inflation and suppress inflationary risks.

It is, but they are not of a drama character, not connected
exclusively with the staff, it is connected with the desire to improve
the work of this important body control, “- he said.

I note that I very carefully concern: a) the people and b) – I think that
personnel reshuffle, as a rule, of course, is not always staff changes
