MOSCOW, March 28 (Reuters) - Russia is working on issuing OFZ treasury bonds in currencies of countries Moscow considers "friendly" - those that have not imposed sanctions - the Interfax news agency cited Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin as saying on Tuesday.


"The issue of starting to issue OFZ and other instruments in friendly currencies is being studied, especially as major Russian issuers have already started entering the borrowing market in Chinese yuan," Mishustin was quoted as saying.
