“As of February 17, 2020, we can conclude that the price situation is stabilizing. The stabilization of prices in the Far Eastern Federal District was primarily facilitated by the start of deliveries of products from the Siberian regions of Russia, as well as Turkey and Azerbaijan, ”the FAS quoted TASS as saying.
In early February, it was reported that the Federal Antimonopoly Service would check retail prices for socially important food products in the Far Eastern Federal District.
Deputy Prime Minister, Presidential Envoy to the Far Eastern Federal District, Yuri Trutnev, instructed the FAS to monitor prices and prevent their unjustified increase.
