Meanwhile, the government of Russia has banned foreign exchange loans and transfers by Russian residents.
The government announced its decision on Monday which is in response to economic sanctions imposed on Moscow by the West.
The Russian president also signed into law a bill ordering all exporting companies to sell 80 per cent of their foreign exchange earnings made since 1 January on the market.
This new move is coming after Foreign secretary Liz Truss announced that Britain was set to lock Russia’s Sberbank out of the sterling clearing and slap sanctions on three other banks.
The UK government has also advised residents against travelling to Russia and ordered its ports to ban any vessels that are Russian as it increased pressure on Moscow.
