Aksyonov believes that there are no prerequisites for food prices to rise in Crimea. How will trade respond?

CrimeaPRESS reports:

Isn’t Crimea threatened by the traditional “pre-Easter” increase in egg prices?

To date, no objective prerequisites for rising prices for food products have been recorded in Crimea. This was stated by the Head of the Republic of Crimea Sergei Aksyonov. According to him, market participants who allow an unreasonable increase in the cost of products are driven only by the thirst for profit (from the editor — was it ever different?).

Significant factors such as increases in prices for plant protection products and fertilizers, fuels and lubricants and fuel have not been observed. There are no reasons for an increase, including on the eve of Easter— said the Head of Crimea, emphasizing the inadmissibility of such actions on the part of manufacturers and distributors.

Materials about unscrupulous market participants will be sent to the Federal Antimonopoly Service (from the editor, but what about the constant thesis “demand creates supply”, which is always used to cover trade?).

At the same time, according to Aksenov, work continues to stabilize food prices in municipalities where large retail chains are not represented. We are talking in particular about the Dzhankoy and Krasnoperekopsky districts.

In turn, the Minister of Industrial Policy of the Republic of Crimea Anushavan Aghajanyan said that municipal administrations are holding negotiations with entrepreneurs on their potential accession to the agreement previously signed between the republican government, manufacturers and retail chains on regulating the cost of essential goods.

Sergei Aksyonov emphasized the readiness of the authorities to provide all necessary assistance to entrepreneurs owning non-chain retail stores.

The Head of the Republic also appealed to the residents of Crimea with a request to help the authorities in controlling the situation with food prices.

Cases of abnormal increases in food costs can be reported to the hotline of the Ministry of Industrial Policy of the Republic of Crimea: +7-978-000-08-55department page on social network In contact with or official site.

An appropriate response will be given to all appeals from Crimeans. We continue to monitor prices and, together, we will level out the situation.concluded the Head of Crimea.
