____________________________________________ This comes despite a dramatic central bank interest rate hike to prop up its value. VOA's Daniel Schearf reports: "Russia's emergency measures to brake the fall of the ruble showed the opposite results Tuesday as the currency dropped to a new low. The ruble at one point fell to bellow 80 to the dollar, despite a whopping 6.5 percent interest rate hike. It recovered somewhat in late trading but was still down 60 percent from its value at the beginning of the year. Russia's central bank announced the jump to a 17 percent rate overnight Monday to try shore up the currency after it lost 10 percent of its value in just one day. Daniel Schearf, Moscow." 尽管俄罗斯央行大幅提高利率以支持卢布币值稳定,_____________________________________美国之音新闻,丹尼尔`舍瑞夫报道. "俄罗斯为阻止卢布贬值而采取的货币政策取得的却是相反的效果,周二,卢布跌破新低.尽管银行利率达到6.5%这一夸张的高度,但是卢布兑美元的汇率还是跌破80比1.之后的交易卢布虽然收复了一些失地,但同年初的币值相比,还是跌了60%.俄罗斯央行周一夜间宣布大幅提高利率达到17%,试图在卢布币值一天之内缩水10%的情况下支撑货币稳定.丹尼尔`舍瑞夫,莫斯科报道."
