INTERNATIONAL, RBTVDISWAY.ID - Russia's gold reserves have once again set a new record. The value of Moscow's precious metal holdings has reportedly skyrocketed to an all-time high, reflecting the country's aggressive efforts to secure its financial assets.

Citing the latest data released by the Russian Central Bank, the value of the country's gold reserves as of November 30, 2025, had exceeded US$310.72 billion.

Converted into Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) at an exchange rate of Rp16,600/US$, the value of Russia's gold stockpile reaches a staggering Rp5,158 trillion.

Amidst intense international pressure, Russia's gold accumulation is unstoppable.

This surge in valuation has significantly altered Russia's economic defense structure.

Currently, gold accounts for more than 42% of Russia's total international reserves.

This 42% figure is the highest proportion Moscow has recorded in the past 30 years.

This indicates that the Russian Central Bank is now prioritizing "real assets" such as physical gold over other financial instruments to maintain its economic stability.

In aggregate, Russia's total international reserves—combining monetary gold and foreign exchange—have increased 19% year-on-year to US$734.59 billion (equivalent to Rp 12,194 trillion).
