MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia's Finance Minister Anton Siluanov said on Sunday that the size of the National Wealth Fund will stand at around 12.5 trillion roubles ($164.26 billion) by the end of this year, the TASS news agency cited him as saying.

The government does not expect to spend more from the fund than planned to restore the Russian economy, and will only use the funds when oil prices are low, he was cited as saying.
