We believe that we need to amend the civil and civil procedure code and in the law on mortgages and to introduce a new concept of force majeure — force majeure, which, from our point of view, can be a financial and economic crisis, a sharp change in the exchange rate and the sharp failures of the national currency.Sergei Ironblade of the party “Fair Russia”
The law should be retroactive to the Russians, who took mortgages in dollars and euros could pay off debt, said Mironov.
Problems in exchange of food began at the end of 2014 in a sharp weakening of the ruble. In April 2015, the government adopted a program of assistance for all debtors with housing loans that were in a difficult situation. The government undertook to compensate banks for 200 thousand rubles for each client.
