Claim 2: “The Bank of Russia purchased 2 bln rubles ($23.56 mln) worth of yuan on the domestic market with settlement on September 24, 2026”

MISLEADING

While a web search result confirms the Bank of Russia bought $23.56 mln worth of yuan, the claim states the settlement date is September 24, 2026. This date is likely a typo for 2024, as the accompanying evidence for claim 1 refers to September 23 (implied current year) and other evidence mentions October 2, 2024. The claim is technically supported by the value but the year 2026 is anachronistic for a standard settlement operation.

Claim 3: “The Bank of Russia conducts foreign currency purchase and sale operations on the domestic market through the yuan-ruble instrument in the currency section of the Moscow Exchange.”

CORROBORATED

Multiple independent cross-references from TASS explicitly confirm that the Bank of Russia conducts foreign currency operations on the domestic market using the yuan-ruble instrument in the Moscow Exchange's currency section. This is further supported by the Wikipedia entry for the Moscow Exchange describing its foreign exchange market operations.
