The government forecasts inflation at the end of the year at the level of 4-4.5%

According to him, most likely, it will go beyond 4%.

“But we see that inflation in the domestic market is now gradually starting to slow down, although for some goods it is in the red zone ... The estimate for the year is somewhere in the range from 4% to 4.5% - the government's estimate”, - quoted by Belousov RIA Novosti.

He noted that the Cabinet of Ministers is closely following the trends.

Earlier, the Central Bank presented an updated medium-term forecast, according to which, by the end of the year, inflation will be in the range of 4.7-5.2%.
