Peskov called the priority of the authorities to reduce inflation to 4% in Russia

“Firstly, we try, you know, not to comment on the actions of our mega-regulator.

We will not do this now either, ”he said at a briefing in response to a request to comment on the actions of the Central Bank to reduce inflation.

Peskov noted that an early return "to the target zone is a priority for the head of state and for the cabinet of ministers on his behalf."

Earlier it was reported that the Central Bank of Russia made a decision to raise the key rate by 0.75 percentage points to 7.5%.
