卢布贬值女性买不起口红俄议员：用甜菜根擦嘴

The senator also claimed that Russian women had no need to buy expensive imported underwear. ‘Our women will look better in lingerie made in Moscow than in France,’ he said.

It comes as Barack Obama warned President Vladimir Putin was at the centre of ‘a huge economic contraction’ due to the Ukraine crisis.

Speaking to CNN yesterday [SUN] Obama rejected suggestions he had been ‘outmanoeuvred’ by Putin.

He said: ‘Right now, he’s presiding over the collapse of his currency, a major financial crisis and a huge economic contraction.

‘That doesn’t sound like somebody who has rolled me or the United States of America.’

The EU and the US have imposed a series of economic sanctions on Russia, and the financial crisis there has seen the rouble halve in just a few months.

The effects of the crisis are being felt not just within the country, but further afield too, with France’s ski resorts reporting a dip in super-rich and middle class Russians visiting tourist destinations.

Falling Russian tourism has also been reported in Austria, Germany, Cyprus, as well as in the UK.

Russian carrier Aeroflot has suspended its weekly flights from Moscow to Innsbruck reflecting the fall in demand reported by Austrian hoteliers.

In Germany’s Oberbayern region in Bavaria, the number of Russian visitors fell nearly 4.5 per cent from January to September compared to the same period in 2013, according to Bayerische Rundschau TV.
