Spokesperson of the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov said that Vladimir Putin and Kremlin officials will submit their income statements by April 1, but it is not mandatory to publish these documents. It has been reported TASS.
“There is no such obligation anymore, but we will all apply,” said Peskov.
He thus answered the question of whether Putin will publish his statement this year.
Asked whether the Kremlin has a unified position on the issuance of the declarations, Peskov answered in the negative.
“NO [единой позиции], but I repeat once again, this is not necessary, we proceed primarily from this. “The important thing is to present and publish the statement is secondary,” said Peskov.
Before Putin declarationThere is now a trend towards higher wages in the country. At the same time, there is some decrease in the real incomes of the population and the level of real wages.
At the same time, there is a shortage of specialists, including highly qualified specialists, in the military-industrial complex in the country. In this context, Putin said that the wage level in this sector should become more attractive.
