The PLAN was for the entire war to be over by the end of March 2022. The PLAN failed when Russia lost the Battle of Kyiv, and there was no backup plan. Russia has been winging it with temporary measures, including price controls, ever since.
“State regulation of food prices, which has been gaining momentum in recent years, will lead to the degradation of agriculture and the food industry, as well as a sharp reduction in the range of goods on store shelves.”
“Thirteen industry associations representing producers, suppliers, retail chains and consumers warned the head of the Russian government, Mikhail Mishustin, about this.”
“The letter, a copy of which was reviewed by Rossiyskaya Gazeta, states that the gradual "tightening of the screws" in the form of setting maximum selling prices for producers and…”
“…limiting markups for retail chains ignores the objective reasons for the rise in food prices, the growth in production costs and sales of products.”
“It also does not take into account the growth in food consumption and the quality of food.”
It’s already started…
And remember, the entire system is under threat because of this AND the government has also been increasing taxes and fees in order to cover their skyrocketing costs.
And now they want to find even MORE non-oil & gas revenue!
Also, there’s huge problems in agriculture, and the Russian government just makes things worse.
Here's an example of idiocy. In 2019, due to a record harvest, sugar in Russia was very cheap, which led to a decrease in sugar beet crops. In 2020, the price rose due to a smaller harvest, and Putin ordered a price freeze. Look at the result. They had to subsidize producers youtu.be/uHLPckqqZPI
"The growth in quality of food" 🇷🇺: Have you seen the price of meat glue?
West had saved Ruzzia from starvation and total collapse probably 2-3 times already - DON’T make this mistake again!
Food is an imperialist and globalist concept.
😂
USA will start feeding Russia as it is one of the only countries without tariffs...
We will poison it then
Yes you did!
The russian impersialistic virus will only die after it starves to death. This can be done literally by food shortages in Moscow; or after it has no more countries or land to invade; and starves that way. But peace can only be achieved after this virus is dead.
fakti.bg/en/biznes/96... Konya University Professor Haluk Gedikoglu reportedthat frosts in Turkey have destroyed up to 80% of the future grape harvest and 50% of the apricot, apple and cherry harvest, which will lead to a decrease in their exports to Russia in 2025
They also had problems in February. www.agbi.com/agriculture/...
Authorities are describing this as one of the most severe agricultural frosts in Turkey’s recent history It will be worse watchers.news/2025/04/15/t...
My hypothesis: Russians will tolerate inflation of 200 percent per year. But Putin doesn't like these figures. He orders inflation to be curbed and makes things even worse
The same with the dollar exchange rate. Putin doesn't like the figures and orders to reduce the dollar exchange rate
I've seen protests over power outages in 40 degree heat but I haven't seen protests over inflation.
