MOSCOW: Russia's central bank said on Thursday that it and the Finance Ministry had not conducted forex market interventions on Dec 23.

The central bank publishes its interventions data with a time lag.

It has spent over $80 billion defending the rouble this year, and the Finance Ministry last week started selling leftover foreign currency on its accounts to support the rouble.
