Russian President Vladimir Putin acknowledged on Feb. 7 that inflation remains a major challenge for the country’s economy and directed the government to develop measures to lower it in 2025.

The Russian Central Bank recently said that it sees "no signs of a sustainable slowdown in price growth" despite maintaining a high key interest rate of 21%.

Hey Putin I have some free advice for you. When prices go up, you just print more money, so people can afford the higher prices.
You should absolutely do that, it will solve all the problems. I promise!!

Not the people, the government. The people don't matter to Putin.
