During a meeting with the governor, Putin drew attention to the increase in gross regional product and the growth of industrial production.
“The income level of citizens is higher than the national average.
But at the same time, I see that the construction site has slowed down a bit.
It is not very clear why this is so, what it is, where it comes from.
Or are there some objective things, maybe?
Tell me now,” Putin said in a conversation with Nosov.
He called the situation with unemployment in the region "unexpected".
“In general, everything is stable in the country in our labor market, but for some reason it is higher than the average for Russia - 59th place as of August 1, 2022.
Let's talk about everything in order," the head of state said at the beginning of the meeting.
In early September, Putin said that the labor market is still stable, unemployment at historical lows.
