Kyiv, August 6 (Interfax-Ukraine) – If Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko wins the upcoming presidential elections she will conduct staff reshuffles in the National Bank of Ukraine.

"After the presidential campaign, which, I am definitely going to win, it [the hryvnia exchange rate] will be in our competence, as it is up to the country's president to submit a candidate for the NBU governor [to the Verkhovna Rada for consideration]. That is why I am confident that the exchange rate will be all right," she said in an interview with a number of Ukrainian television channels broadcast on Thursday evening.

Tymoshenko once again said that the current hryvnia exchange rate should be UAH 6- UAH 6.5 per $1.

The official hryvnia exchange rate set for August 7 is UAH 769.8 per $100.
