“Prices have risen so much that people are almost mad …”
One of the most recent opinion polls conducted in Russia these days is that almost 70 percent of the country’s population lives in Ukraine snowrevealed that he supported military aggression. It is possible that this opinion poll, conducted under the influence of total propaganda, does not fully reflect the position of the Russians, but in any case it is an undeniable fact. that, they are waging a war to occupy the territories of a neighboring country snowotherwise they would have to take to the streets to protest. In other words, the classic question “Do the Russians want a war?” Can now be answered with confidence. But that’s the point that, It is the cost that the Russians face in their countries as a result of this aggressive war and they are dissatisfied with the famine.
It doesn’t make sense to want a war and be dissatisfied with its consequences, but let’s still turn to the classics. Russia It is not a country that can be understood rationally and logically. That is the fact that, Implemented by the West and total economic sanctions and against the background of the devaluation of the ruble, a total appreciation has begun in Russia. virtualaz.org reports that, Russia Central Bankto the information of according to, more than 40 percent of the country’s companies will have to increase the price of their products in the next three months. This is a historical record. The Russians have been watching the sharp rise in prices on the shelves for several weeks now. Sibir.Realliglar, a project of RFE / RL’s Russian Service, reports that, Omsk, Tyumen, Krasnoyarsk and In the Sakhalin region, people say they have gone crazy when they see rising prices.
“I’ve been sick lately, I haven’t been out for more than a month. My husband bought all the food. And yesterday we finally went to the store together, I looked at the prices, I’m sorry, I just opened my mouth. Vegetables and fruits have become so expensive that, man is about to lose his mind. There are no tomatoes under 350 rubles, no Chinese tomatoes, no greenhouse tomatoes. They sell the relatively good for 400 rubles. Azerbaijani tomatoes are more expensive, ”said Irina Levashova, a resident of Krasnoyarsk.
In March, you can not eat fresh tomatoes and cucumbers, without which the Russians acthey will not die. But that’s the point that, Daily vegetables such as potatoes, onions, cabbage and carrots have also risen sharply. Now the cheapest potato is 66 rubles, carrots are not less than 156 rubles, and the cheapest beet is 105 rubles. The cheapest cabbage is 125 rubles. All this is a vegetable grown in Russia, and imported vegetables are very expensive. Crimean onion costs 260 rubles, Chinese garlic – 396 rubles. In the shop near our house, they give a set of greens – green onions, “parsley”, three dill – for 450 rubles. Such are the prices that, It is impossible to get close, ”said the resident.
Prices for imported products are also rising at a fantastic rate. Bananas used to cost 74 rubles in Krasnioyarsk, now they cost 180 rubles. A kilogram of Brazil nuts 10It has risen from 00 rubles to 1,600 rubles. The cheapest is the Moldovan nut that, it can also be bought for 1,200 rubles. The price of peeled pumpkin seeds has risen from 180 to 770 rubles.
“Yesterday I looked at how people bought a kilo of muddy, damaged potatoes for 66 rubles. They put it in a small bag and weigh it, not more than a kilogram, and when they weigh it, they look carefully at the scales. Who will receive, in one case that, Whole cabbage costs 2-3 kilograms, and the cheapest is 125 rubles per kilogram? How much will this debt cost? In the past, Chinese cabbage was cut in half, but now ordinary cabbage is also cut, and people go crazy looking at it. I am two days that, I can’t come to my senses, “said the resident.
The price of cereals has also increased fantastically. The cheapest was wheat groats that, Earlier it was not more than 35-30 rubles per kilogram, now it is 91 rubles. “Moreover, not a 1-kilogram package, but 900 or 800 grams. I bought green peas yesterday, to throw in the soup – 800 grams for 92 rubles. Semolina 15-20 rubles, now it is 66 rubles. Rice and kilograms of buckwheat 200 rubles. They do not sell more than 2 kilograms of sugar per person, plus 84 rubles per kilogram. Whoever wants to buy more should pay more. Condensed milk used to be 70-80 rubles, now it is 156 rubles. These are still Russia’s own products.
The situation is similar in Omsk stores. In the city, powdered sugar first disappeared from stores, but now they do not sell more than 5 kilograms per capita, and the price has doubled. Residents see the reason for the rise in price of powdered sugar in the agitation, but do not want to talk openly about why other goods have risen in price. For example, now a roll of relatively high quality toilet paper 10It costs more than 0 rubles, and fresh tomatoes are sold for 690 rubles. A kilogram of cabbage costs 130-150 rubles. “Do they bring vegetables from across the ocean?” You can’t find eggs for less than 90 rubles. It’s a chicken egg, not an ostrich egg! How long will they ridicule the people? I don’t know what the superiors think: when will the people’s patience run out? ”Said Yelena Ivanovna.
Everyone in Sakhalin is dissatisfied with the price. The price of everything has risen here. “I am afraid to enter the store. I do not know where the government saw 2% inflation, I have completely different figures. For example, New Zealand butter. I always bought it for 700 rubles per kilogram, Belarus and Russia much better than butter. Now it is more than 1,200 rubles. Now calculate, inflation what is the percentage. I can’t afford this oil anymore. The sellers say that, at least buy Belarusian oil, be careful. It is still relatively cheap, 900 rubles, and the new batch will be more expensive, “said Galina pensionhe says.
Vendors in stores are also unable to update prices. One of the buyers says that, The price of tea in the shop window was 110 rubles, but it became clear when he approached the cash register that, rose to 168 rubles… (virtualaz)
