KIEV, Aug. 21 – Public distrust of power institutions carries a threat of destabilization to the national currency, said Viktor Suslov, the head of Ukraine’s state commission for financial service markets regulation.

"The key threat to the stability of the national currency is the availability of public distrust to power institutions, and I think that the involvement of financial regulators in any political fight is inadmissible. The stability of the national currency cannot be subject to political and election technologies, and one cannot transform the issue into a political fight," he said.
