The five leaders also include the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, Moscow (more than 97 thousand rubles), Sakhalin (86,760) and the Nenets Autonomous Okrug (79,831).

The smallest salaries are in the North Caucasus. So, in North Ossetia, Kabardino-Balkaria, Karachay-Cherkessia and Ingushetia, they amount to about 20 thousand rubles.

Head of the Laboratory of REU named after Plekhanova Elena Egorova in an interview with RIA Novosti explained this gap by the difference in the minimum wage in each region.

Earlier, Minister of Education Olga Vasilyeva said that by 2029, 180 thousand teachers would be lacking in Russian schools.
