“No, we don’t have such a topic on the agenda, such issues are not discussed,” the Kremlin representative said.

He recommended that “all other questions” be asked to “the authors of these statements.”

It is noted that in this way he commented on the veracity of the statement made by Vladislav Zhukovsky, a member of the expert council of Business Russia, that the government was studying the issue of raising the retirement age by another three years.

Earlier, the Russian Cabinet supported the bill on the right to receive payments from non-state pension funds (NPFs) before reaching retirement age.
