As the parliamentarian noted, there are no prerequisites for the corresponding goods to increase in price.

In addition, the Russian Deputy Prime Minister pointed out the fact that some food products from the above-mentioned category are produced in Russia, among other places.
The situation with prices
The parliamentarian added: “Russian fishermen are already extracting raw materials in the form of caviar, herring, ivasi and other seafood.”
According to Patrushev, Russian specialists are working in the Azov-Black Sea basin and in the Barents Sea.
Accordingly, as the Russian Deputy Prime Minister emphasized, “there are no objective preconditions for price increases.”
Patrushev also recalled that such rumors arise due to deliberate speculative motives.
