It's been like that ever since the currency controls were implemented in 2003, it is fairly well known that most if not all of the high ranked government officials (who have unlimited access to preferencial exchange rates) are behind the currency "black" market. The same government officials have their fair share of cash stashed away in tax havens.
This is beyond hope, corruption is not only endemic anymore but a neccessity for survival, unfortunately this will only end with blood, I believe international interference is a must in this case.

I think international interference in this kind of issues end up causing more trouble than solutions. It ends up becoming a contest of whose side is supporting who. Just look at Syria.
