The Russian rouble suffered its worst week against the dollar this year, tumbling on a lack of foreign currency in Moscow and the sale of Western businesses in Russia. The rouble dipped more than 2 percent against the US dollar to an intraday low of 83.50, its weakest since April last year. Moreover, it fell more than 2 percent against the euro to an intraday low of 91.32.
