1、欧洲 Russians urged 'don't panic' as rouble hits new low 卢布贬值至新低 俄罗斯呼吁“不要恐慌” 2014年9月17日2:33 Russian authorities urged people not to panic on Tuesday as the rouble fell to a new all-time low against the US dollar amid concerns about the effect of sanctions on the country's economy. The rouble fell about 1% to 38.71 per dollar, the weakest it has been since the currency was restructured in 1998. Last week, the US and Europe introduced further sanctions against Russia for its actions in Ukraine. Ordinary Russians are concerned the fall in the rouble could drive up the already high rate of inflation. 本周二俄罗斯卢布对美元汇率降至历史新低。美欧国家对俄罗斯经济的制裁造成了不良影响，国内对此表示担忧，而俄罗斯当局呼吁市民不要恐慌。 俄罗斯卢布下跌约1%，卢布兑美元跌至38.8，这是自俄罗斯1998年进行货币重组以来的最低汇率。 上周，美国和欧洲对俄罗斯采取了进一步的制裁，原因是俄罗斯在乌克兰采取的行动。 俄罗斯民众担心卢布下跌可能抬高本已很高的通胀率。
