Exclusive The National Bank of Ukraine is going through a different process of preparing and negotiating the design of the coins, a “step” after the parliament praises the final bill.
About this in an exclusive comment to Ukrinform, head of the National Bank Andriy Pishny.
“After the decision is praised, we obviously need the process of preparation and negotiation of the design of the coin. In fact, this initiative of the table has deeply touched the creative forces, so that they themselves come before Let’s look at the National Bank and show off their ideas, but first of all I need to praise the idea itself,” said Pishny.
Having said that the transition from copies to steps is an important step for consolidating the monetary sovereignty of Ukraine, we can accept decommunization, de-Russification and decolonization of our state.
“This is an important deadline in order to remain in the best possible manifestations, consolidate monetary sovereignty, restore historical justice and name the currently controversial penny trade between Ukraine and Belarus Moscow. The kopek was lost only there. Unfortunately, we still don’t have fractional coins with the Ukrainian name in Kiev – one hundredth fraction of the hryvnia,” added Pishny.
In his words, the NBU believes that the initiative to rename copies to steps will be supported by the Ukrainian parliament.
“I’m already convinced that parliament will praise this decision,” the head of the National Bank added.
As reported by Ukrinform, the National Bank of Ukraine is changing the name of the coin “kopiyka” to “step” to restore historical justice and strengthen national traditions of penny coins Ukraine.
In the spring of 2024, Pishny has returned to the Head of the Supreme Council for the sake of Ruslan Stefanchuk with plans to initiate the introduction of the disaggregated bills of the National Bank for consideration by the parliament.
