Russia’s economy is now at a standstill, said the head of the accounts chamber Alexey Kudrin. According to Mr. Kudrin, Russia needs more decisively to fight the crisis.”Despite the fact that we have been talking about this for many years, unfortunately, political decisions are not taken. Unfortunately, we’re not. We are in stagnation,” said Kudrin, in his lecture before the graduates of the Russian economic school (quoted by “RIA Novosti”).The head of the chamber recalled that during the crisis of 2008-2009, the government had acted faster, and therefore successfully deal with it. “We are a little slow to respond to the challenges of this crisis, which bears no resemblance (other.— “B”), and our old formulas don’t always work. That’s why we need to act more decisively,” said Mr. Kudrin.Low debt burden of Russia is a good reserve to fight the crisis, said Mr. Kudrin. “I think this provision is little used: we could easily take 2 or 3 trillion more and keep both the population and the economy,” he added.On the eve of the experts of the Higher school of Economics said that since the beginning of July began a recovery in the real sector of the Russian economy. Note that the recovery of the economy from the impact of the pandemic has been developed a three-phase nationwide plan.Read more about the economic recovery plan — in the material “Kommersant” “the Economy for nothing”.
