Either way, raising Interest serves just one purpose, to Remove that one Currency, so maybe they're trying to get people OFF of the central Banks Currency and moved over to the NEw stuff.....
Raising interest rates are intended to get investors to support the ruble, is it not?
12% interest is a way of mitigating the risk. If the ruble is shaky you may not put your money there at 3%. At 12% it's a different calculation.
