Government sets ceiling prices for Belarusian vegetables on store shelves

Implementing the major economic obligations undertaken this year is the objective that the President has set for the government and the National Bank during his meeting with Chairman of the Board of the Bank Pavel Kallaur and Assistant for Monetary System Development Valery Belsky. Special attention is paid to the measures to control inflation. Last year's results show that this indicator did not fit into the planned corridor. Now this is a priority to ensure price stability. For example, the prices of fruits and vegetables are growing strongly in the neighboring countries. 

To protect the consumer, the government has already set a price ceiling on the shelves for the Belarusian vegetables. Another resolution was signed the day before:  the Belarusian cabbage, onions and apples can now be exported only under the license. MART notes: it is now important to protect the domestic market from the uncontrolled export of essential products, said Alexei Bogdanov, Minister of Antimonopoly Regulation and Trade of Belarus.
