Russian efforts to ditch the U.S. dollar are ramping up as the share of Russian exports sold in U.S. dollars have tumbled below 50% in Q4 2020 for the very first time, Bloomberg reported citing the country's central bank data.
彭博社援引俄羅斯中央銀行的數據稱，由於俄羅斯出口美元的份額在2020年第四季度首次跌破50％，因此俄羅斯放棄美元的努力正在加強。
More specifically, only 48% of Russia's exports were sold in dollars in Q4 compared to 61% reported in Q4 of 2019. This is the first time the U.S. dollar no longer dominates the bulk of the Russian export transactions.
更具體地說，第四季度俄羅斯的出口額中只有48％以美元出售，而2019年第四季度則為61％。這是美元首次不再主導俄羅斯的大部分出口交易。
And the euro is the one benefiting from this shift, with the share of euro transactions up at 36% in Q4 of last year in comparison to 21% reported in Q4 2019.
歐元是從這一轉變中受益的人，去年第四季度歐元交易的份額增長了36％，而2019年第四季度報告的這一比例為21％。
The catalyst for this change is Russian's trade with China, which is now being conducted with the euro as the primary trading currency. More than three-quarters of Russia's trade with China is now being done in euros, Bloomberg reported.
促成這一變化的催化劑是俄羅斯與中國的貿易，目前以歐元為主要貿易貨幣進行貿易。彭博社報導，俄羅斯與中國的貿易有四分之三以上以歐元進行。
Russia's President Vladimir Putin has been pushing for de-dollarization in order to strip away American influence over Russia amid increasing tensions and rising sanctions against Russia.
俄羅斯總統弗拉基米爾·普京（Vladimir Putin）一直在推動美元貶值，以在緊張局勢加劇和對俄羅斯的製裁不斷增加的情況下，剝奪美國對俄羅斯的影響力。
Russia was hit by the latest round of U.S. sanctions in April when the Biden administration introduced limits on buying newly-issued Russian sovereign debt. The U.S. also expelled 10 Russian diplomats and sanctioned a number of entities and individuals. This was in response to reports that Russian interfered with last year's elections in the U.S., specifically the massive "SolarWinds" hack.
拜登（Biden）政府對購買新發行的俄羅斯主權債務施加限制時，俄羅斯受到了最新一輪美國製裁的打擊。美國還驅逐了10名俄羅斯外交官並製裁了許多實體和個人。這是對有報導稱俄羅斯干預去年美國大選的報導的回應，特別是大規模的“ SolarWinds”黑客事件。
On top of ditching the U.S. dollar currency in its export transactions, Russia's central has been increasing holdings of gold and euros in its international reserves while shedding its Treasuries holdings.
除了在出口交易中放棄美元以外，俄羅斯中央政府還在減少國債持有量的同時，增加了其國際儲備中黃金和歐元的持有量。
