Russia is in no rush to increase the share of rouble payments for its exports, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday.
He was commenting on a report about steel baron Vladimir Lisin, who told Kommersant newspaper that Moscow's plans to charge roubles for its exports would undermine the country's position on global markets.
Peskov said the possible process of moving to charge roubles for exports should be gradual and well-prepared.
Russia has already asked its overseas clients from so-called “unfriendly” countries to pay in roubles for natural gas, a plan which has met strong criticism from Europe.
