Sputnik: Russia printed 4 billion dinars for Bayda-based CBL
A total of 400 million Russia-printed Libyan dinars ($292 million) has already been delivered to the eastern Bayda airport from Moscow for the parallel Central Bank of Libya.
“The Central Bank made a deal with Russia’s largest printing house to print four billion Libyan dinars, which will be delivered in [separate] parties,” Ehemer said, abstaining from naming the printing house.
It has been reported that local banks are short of cash as entrepreneurs took their savings worth 24 billion dinars out of the country.
