"Russians refuse to believe Rosstat's inflation slowdown.
Four weeks of price declines in a row and a slowdown in inflation to 8.55% year-on-year have not convinced Russians that price growth is slowing down. Inflation expectations of the population have grown to 13.5% in August from 13% in July, and the price increase felt by people has grown to 16.1% from 15%, according to a poll by the Public Opinion Foundation commissioned by the Central Bank (it was conducted from August 4 to 14).
This is how Russians reacted to the increase in housing and communal services tariffs from July 1: in early August, they received their first bills for the new rates. The 13-15% increase turned out to be higher than usual.
"We don't believe it, the Russians say," former Deputy Chairman of the Central Bank Sergei Aleksashenko comments on the survey results.
Economist Dmitry Polevoy adds gasoline, which continues to rise in price, to housing and communal services tariffs. Over the year, prices for it have increased by 10.5%, more than the official inflation figures."
