Water and heat supply will also become more expensive. It is already the second tariff increase in the current year. The government usually raises prices in July.
Ancillary costs are up four percent this year. However, at the beginning of autumn, the Ministry of Economy announced that tariffs would be raised again in December due to the need for repair of gas and heating pipes. The aim is to pass the costs on to the consumers.
Russian citizens have been struggling with double-digit inflation since the beginning of the war. While the ruble has since become more expensive against key currencies, especially the euro and the dollar, technical equipment and other imported goods have become more expensive.
After the decrease in raw material exports, the hope expressed by some economists that gas would become cheaper in the domestic market did not materialize. According to surveys, 43 percent of the population will not be paid until the end of the month.
