MOSCOW, April 20 (Reuters) - Russia's Central Bank Governor told lawmakers on Thursday that sacrificing price stability would limit Moscow's ability to protect people from future shocks and that the bank was committed to maintaining a floating exchange rate.

Nabiullina said the bank would only interfere on the currency market when there was a risk to financial stability, as there was last spring when Western nations started imposing punitive sanctions against Moscow after it sent tens of thousands of troops into Ukraine.
