The minimum pension cannot be lower than the subsistence minimum established in the Russian Federation for pensioners.
Svetlana Bessarab, a member of the Committee on Labor, Social Policy and Veterans' Affairs, named the minimum pension amount in 2025.
The lower limit in 2025 will be 15,250 rubles, she said in a conversation with Lenta.ru .
Minimum pension in 2025
Thus, citizens with a social pension below the subsistence minimum will definitely be paid up to this level from the federal budget, the deputy noted.
The parliamentarian also said that each region has its own minimum subsistence level.
The deputy explained that the cost of living in Moscow is higher than in other regions. Therefore, the city will pay extra to reach its level.
Thus, Russian pensioners in 2025 will receive a guaranteed minimum pension of 15,250 rubles.
It is not yet clear how the situation will develop in the future, but in 2025, measures taken by the government will help improve the financial situation of pensioners.
For reference
A pension is a regular cash payment to people who have reached retirement age.
