Fruit and vegetable prices in Russia may drop 15%
"Inflation was 3.9% year-on-year in July, falling below the target level of the Bank of Russia. The dramatic slowdown of annual inflation was caused in the first instance by a significant drop in fruit and vegetable prices after supplies of the new harvest started. The potential of a fruit and vegetable price drop is not exhausted yet and could amount to 15% in the coming months," the ministry said.
A recent poll showed that rising prices and falling savings are among Russians’ biggest fears.
