MOSCOW (Dow Jones)--Russian billionaire and presidential hopeful Mikhail Prokhorov Friday called for the creation of a single global currency based on the ruble and euro, one of a long list of demands that included deep cuts in the number of bureaucrats and privatization of state-owned television channels.
The demands were part of Prokhorov's election program, which was published on Friday. Russian Prime Minister Vladimir is expected to handily win elections set for March 4, with the latest poll showing that he would collect more than 50% of the vote if elections were held Sunday.
