Russia may rethink euro in reserves after Cyprus - PM


MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia may need to review the share of euros it holds in its central bank reserves over the euro zone's bungled handling of a bailout of Cyprus, Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev was quoted on Thursday as saying.

"I would like to answer in an optimistic way but I have to say that this is a reason to think about it," Medvedev said when asked whether the situation in Cyprus was a reason to reduce the euro share of Russia's reserves, according to Interfax.
