[000:00:00;00] 12 hours on our air good evening good evening this is the economic environment for belarus 1 and belarus 24 today we will discuss pricing, as the basis of a just world in belarus, a matter of principle since it affects the interests of all our people, let me remind you that the behavior of individual suppliers and trade representatives caused a harsh reaction from our president in october last year, the government's tight deadline developed and implemented a regulatory system. price. and as a result , inflationary processes slowed down, and in deflation was recorded in the fourth quarter of last year. we all felt this with our wallets, but how effective is the new system, if it has flaws, can it be argued that speculation and unreasonable price increases are a thing of the past, which does not suit conscientious manufacturers and retailers. is everyone following

the new rules? and who is not ready to work together with the government to solve the tasks set by the head of state, let's sort it out. today we have studio experts who are well versed in pricing issues. and also like all of us go shopping alexei bogdanov, minister of antimonopoly regulation and trade natalya shablinskaya, executive director of the non-profit association association of retail chains and mikhail mikhalev, general director of the joint-stock company has grown, dear guests. good evening. we will delve into pricing issues to remind our viewers of the position of the head of state. prices should be affordable for people, including for imported goods, no one is allowed

to cash in on consumers price bacchanalia fair pricing and a wide range of products are the main requirements of ours. president to the price regulation system let's hear i do not insist that they be stopped prices, because with such a between. a sudden stop in prices will result in a shortage on the shelves, but unjustified wild growth should not be. we managed to significantly slow down inflationary processes in the country in the fourth quarter. after decisive action in the twenty -second year, deflation of almost 2% was recorded, that is, there was a decrease in prices, a rollback, when we last met, the government predicted annual inflation of about 20%. this is terrible inflation. it would be, but taking into account the measures taken, it was possible to reduce it. well

, at least up to 12-13%, according to the results. alexey igorevich in the studio of the economic environment, we met with you on october 19 last year , on the very day when it was adopted, well , the legendary government decree number 713 4 months has passed four. well, during this time it has been adjusted and adapted to the realities of modern times, but we all felt. uh, the positive effect of the action of this document. we heard that inflation processes in the country have slowed down, and in the fourth quarter in november it was fixed. well, the record for our country over the past few years, the level of deflation is about two percent, of course, uh, getting ready for today's broadcast. we reviewed the issue here and, uh, we must state that almost all the theses that you noted, then they were implemented in practice, and all

the forecasts came true. here's what you think can be credited to the measures taken. in terms of price regulation, it is differentiated for consumers, producers and trade. we are absolutely right and correctly noted that the positive effect, it is generally on the face, as they say, but the main achievement itself. probably this document. uh, it is necessary to indicate that we managed to take control of pricing in the country to reduce prices, which were really overpriced at that time and at the same time we did not allow the assortment of goods to serve on our store shelves, we all, as you correctly noted we go shopping, we are all consumers and buyers, and each and every one of us, coming to the store, wants to see a wide range of products at an affordable price. and we managed to do it. yes, not without problems. yes, they all worked out at once , we had to meet, almost every day, with our suppliers, manufacturers with

trade. more than 12,000 appeals were received by the ministry of antimonopoly regulation and trade, a lot of work was done to explain the implementation of new regulations that allowed bring to life the norms of the ordinance itself 813. therefore, in general. ah, thanks for the work. we see a positive effect on the country's economy on the consumer's wallet. well , trade should not be offended here either. she must be offended. it should be in the form of producers-importers. the economy manufacturer has its own rules of the game for each, reducing costs does not work for objective reasons with economic calculation. come to the relevant state. authority raises the price proves that sergei had it was a well-grounded head states. yes, it’s clear that the task was not in any way the inflation circle, while we, with our 12 and eight percent, were only in seventeenth place in the top 20 european countries in the circle where we are. these are not our statistics, these are statistics and the prostate. yes it is

their yes. that is, a positive effect was noted even by our competitors, so to speak, for importers and trade, strict maximum margins were set. at the same time , the importer, if his price rises, then we control it together with the customs e committee. why should it also have economic justifications and justifications? why? did he choose this supplier? or this, maybe he is more expensive to choose. or maybe the quality was better, but justify this, the head of state says, justification, fairness , controllability, education and trade. uh, the most beneficiary already, who received all this load, of course, here in this vein, i have repeatedly noted that well done well, they all worked together , it was difficult to allow a deficit, frankly, it was difficult and included all the levers and gentlemen of management and business, including these common efforts. we managed to achieve this goal and today everything is in a calm mode both

on the shelves of stores and in trade, right? profitability has decreased, it is necessary to rebuild the wrong times today in order to fatten those times in order to earn on the end consumer. therefore, we are moving in this vein today, and we will live in this vein until we come to some other decision. so you raised the issue of assortment. it is indeed very relevant. uh, here is natalya sergeevna uh, let's discuss the assortment, it is sufficient today and what difficulties they face, and retail chains to maintain it. you know, of course i , uh, remember the period of time when the product list was defined by seven product groups, it was just, uh, quite a document. hmm. today, of course, we have a detailed assortment list. he's more than enough. here, i'm telling you, as specialists in this industry, that is

, there is an offer for every taste and moreover, there is no ban on retailers other than that not named in the list of assortments. now let's look at security. in fact, there are periodically certain failures and roughness. certainly in this matter. we understand what conditions and what difficulties are imposed on the work of the manufacturer trade, uh, flexible uh, flexible tools have trade quickly can be rebuilt. of course, its goal and the goal of effective work is to ensure that our shelves are sufficiently filled with the offer, so that some new items appear there all the time,

which our buyers might like well-known statistical data. what's more, retail trade turnover in 2022, well, decreased slightly compared to last year, about more than three percent, and in the group of food products. eh, there was almost no decline. satisfied our people began to buy less. what does this have to do with it? but you know that , of course, this is primarily connected with the purchasing power. e in certain periods of time people. just thinking about how to live on, how to economically approach your own budget. and of course, uh, there were more measured purchases. uh, then when hmm arose. you know how this gypsy mail, uh, it doesn't affect trade very well. this is, of course, great

excitement for us, when one showed examples, everyone ran after him, but there were essentially no problems. there is no inventory. there are uh, absolutely uh, seriously thoughtful alternative suppliers in the warehouses. well, in today's world, that can't happen. yes, they are all allowed sergeyevna here you correctly noted in the food segment virtually no reduction occurred. here it is literally more than a percent. the main decrease was in the elevated group of goods, and this car and expensive goods invested the most global share in this. why did it happen? well, understandable. this is your year last year was non-standard and people changed their psychological behavior. they began to buy more inexpensive goods of daily demand, including postponing the acquisition of postponing such long investment purchases is postponed until later, maybe next year for other periods of time, so here pure psychology. and i think that already this year we will compensate for these issues

with the behavioral economy, because of this, in no way. and mikhail ivanovich e. i don't know if you follow the news agenda. eh, if you follow, you certainly know that recently cucumbers and their prices were in the top of the news years. now the relay race. bulgarian peppers were adopted from them, and which, well, too, judging by the individual photographs in separate information sources, are, well, at the level of a delicacy, although a simple check to find out how much this product costs in retail bones shows that these are not at all the same prices as they were depicted in those photographs. well, we know that, uh, your company is also engaged in the cultivation of vegetables and, uh, tell me how your orders for the shipment of vegetable products are scheduled, demand exceeds supply, the situation that has developed with

cucumber is very indicative. this is exactly the situation from which we were supposed to be insured to prevent the flywheel of inflation from developing, just 73 times this decision, and here it should be noted that belarusian manufacturers behaved very worthily and practically according to the information that i have, this is the selling price of 4,500 rubles. up to 5.5 rubles. it has been aged without change by the whole manufacturers over the past three months. and this is new year's eve. now individual representatives of retail have also behaved very worthily, and i know that there is additional information that one is big. here is a very large network, generally known. she kept reducing the trade markup on imported cucumbers to less than than, uh, one percent, which is less percent. these are the joint efforts of retention. prices by belarusian manufacturers did not succumb to momentary profit, but this is

due to the mechanism of self-restraint, and self-regulation, that is, these networks made their own decision. they didn't have e prescriptions. uh, impulses from above here i would like to believe that all these made them respect their buyer. they respect the person who came and chose them and they understand that there is a margin that remains in the cucumber network. it costs a ruble. today, trading the allowance will be capped limited to 713%. and there is a margin that remains enough for the network from one sold kilogram of about 25 kopecks. but, when a cucumber retails for 14 rubles. that is, here this margin already reaches more than three rubles. this is more of such a speculative story rightly speculation. and you ivanovich demand exceeds supply. how are you shipping today thanks. these are the mechanisms of containment by ours and retail

today, the situation is stabilized. what is it expressed in? i have information literally yesterday, when one known to everyone the well-known largest chain refused the batch of cucumber. well the machine, there is more than 6 t refused reason. shipping price 5.15. they took 4.90 imports. well, my attitude. what well, you do not need. well, in general, it’s not necessary, but this is an indicator that they are provided today, but on the other hand, this is a bad trend, because i think it’s bad, because any store should give the right to buy. he must vote with his wallet for this or that product, and our customers, and not only ours, but also russians, know us for our products

belarusian people love it, respect our manufacturers and look for it on the shelves, and when the retailer does not allow belarusian products to be on the counter. i consider this a fact, not a manifestation of disrespect for my buyer, but i must say in defense of those who had a cucumber on the shelf, it is still high, the prices created such a situation in which they could not find this beautiful cucumber on the market, which produces my colleague has grown and the people, of course, uh, are in charge of the security of the shelf. of course, they were the first to turn to our neighbor russia. well, categorically did not offer a different price, and of course, together with transport with all expenses. yes, it was a silk event, but it was just as shocking, where there

was no cucumber in this case either. i think, if you check in detail, the trade margin in these enterprises, it did not exceed 100%. the incentive of course, it was just like that. well, it's been a tough time. this is also here, probably, you know right somewhere in the middle of the greenhouse cucumbers. here in this e in the offseason. so to speak, the winter period, where additional heat and additional additional lighting, we produce less than the need for about thirty percent of the security of the domestic market and the main influence on the price is, uh, imported goods. we dealt with this situation. why was cucumber expensive? uh, the customs committees provide us with information, we have developed a methodology. how to keep track of all this to do, received this information, began to understand, invited importers, analyzed the conjuncture of the foreign market. and it turns out you can’t bring it with turkey. the baltics are all very long. the car has been sitting for 3 weeks. it's already deteriorating. just and it turns out half of the truck, you can throw it

on this other half. the price is superimposed on even more expensive, crop failures and problems with turned out in uzbekistan in azerbaijan and russia was the only one who is a cucumber. i could give, of course, they have no regulation, the market conditions began to heat up prices. they went up. today the situation is completely different. today , mass collection begins at our enterprises by the end of february. cucumber already we will be our complete needs of provision. russia started already a week earlier than us, this collection is large and today in russia the price is already lower than what it offers, even the belarusian supplier. but the fact that mikhail ivanovich noted that he was refused e. we want to figure it out. why is it that belarusian goods should be equally represented with imported ones. well, if you look at the situation from the other side, here is how to keep the prices of vegetable products in the off-season and get around these painful price spikes. here, whether the approaches to the formation and use of stabilization funds, which were

introduced in october 22, are consistent, we are not talking about cucumbers. and in general about domestic vegetables. after all, sometimes the situation comes to paradoxes. what are separate? belarusian vegetables, uh, are more expensive in winter than oranges and pineapples imported there. this is also not very correct. here is how to provide our consumer with a delicious belarusian vegetable, in winter i will start with a banal phrase. we do not have summer all year round, when we are forced into winter. uh, for example, the same greenhouse vegetables incur additional costs at cost in production , they are additionally heated. in the forest , additional lighting is provided, because it does not there is enough light for it to produce photosynthesis and to proceed with the correct biological price will be higher, of course, it will be higher. but as for the closed ground in general , only this increase in production volumes will help; the output of goods from one square meter will then cost itself, respectively, will be distributed over a larger volume. and the price will be lower over that. i

already noted. we are working on the government to work on what concerns the stabilization funds this year. a new approach was taken, a new resolution was adopted laid down for full demand, that is, 144 and 6 tenths of 1,000 tons, 29% more than last year for all commercial fellings, which include this borscht set plus apples. yes , that's why it's not worth worrying about, as it were, with volume e. why does it grow affect? there's only one factor here, and that's what we need to store, and storage is needed. uh, again, to maintain the right climatic conditions for him to settle down. well, we have them. here, well, again, this is electricity. it's warm. this is a necessity. uh, creating conditions so that the vegetable does not deteriorate , it must be stored. and this, of course , increases the price every month with additional costs. for our part, we have developed a chart methodology, which we monitor the price increase. i want to note that this year it differs very much from the past with us

in terms of most e vegetables and stabilization funds. the price is cheaper than last year by 25 50. with a percentage, this is the result except for apples and onions. uh-huh, only two positions at the level of last year have grown and in addition, there is such a thing as commodity-substitute. here is the same potato today , the ruble is about the average price to the ruble ruble, but did you notice the product, what kind of pasta cereal? yes , it is two to three times more expensive on the market today. well , this is their traditional price, so today we seem to see the effectiveness of the decision made on such a formation of becoming funds. yes , there is a remark that it may not be fully selected, and so on, but the system works as it should for the first year and we took it for it. well, this is very serious, and we want to make it clear for everyone this year. so say, the stage of its expenditure. even we see that, well, the area of ​​the colonel is somewhere partly incorrectly distributed by months for six months, it is necessary to store. and some for the first 2 months planned a sales volume of almost 80%. yes, how can just

ended all the regional vegetable fairs all stocked up, who will buy in december in january? yes, by the end it was necessary to distribute the volumes. well, this is also a working moment. we are also working on them together with our colleagues and i think that these schedules are already being reviewed. and of course, with experience we will achieve the fact that e already maybe next year it will be already a more stable situation and all these issues will be clearly distributed, but e always discussions on the topic of domestic or imported come to the issue of consumer preferences and the issue. what the belarusian consumer chooses his own or imported. how many products are purchased under the made in belarus brand and what measures are being taken by the government to saturate the domestic market olga onishchenko analyzed supply and demand specifically for the economic environment? price regulation, introduced in

the country by the october requirements , did not radically lead to either a shortage or a decrease in the assortment of the situation on the consumer market. on the whole, it remains stable march assures and confirms its estimates with figures, while, as the latest data show, the demand for food is mainly provided by its domestic producer and yes, by and large, as the belarusians bought a year earlier, they also bought products last year, in general one for a small error non-food group slightly fell 93% compared to 2021. but this is not at all an abyss that a shortage of goods could guarantee if the market hypothetically reacted like this to price regulation, but all this is just a subjunctive mood that has nothing to do with reality, but reacted he differently increased the separate weight in the sale of domestically produced goods plus 1.7% compared to 2021. and now we buy our own at 61% clearly, the weightiest looks in the food group of almost

77%, non-food maidence. in in general, they buy less in volume, but over the past year, the demand for belarusian in this segment has grown more noticeably, in general, there are a number of positions that are not afraid of any horror stories from shortages and empty shelves of buttered meat, sugar eggs, it does not depend on imports from the word at all the demand for these products is satisfied practically only by its own manufacturer. and in general, we have collected commodity items that, by the end of 2022 , have strengthened their presence in our market , i note that we are talking about domestic goods. so the belarusians began to buy more than their own apples, tomatoes, confectionery, as well as cheeses, juices and non-food pasta , sales of tvs, building materials , ceramic tiles, as well as washing machines, household chemicals, refrigerators and freezers have grown. the latter generally added as much as 20% as for imports, it has not been stopped and not closed, no matter how someone thinks, on the contrary, according to the data for january

, november even added a little while russian. goods balanced russian deliveries. in general , there are a number of imported commodity items , which, as shown by 2022, have become less in trade; the largest losses are in foreign cheeses , apples, chocolate, refrigerators and freezers. at the same time, no one will say that the consumer’s choice was somehow too severely limited, just that the manufacturer offered an alternative to the buyer, decided to support him with sales statistics - this confirms the best possible way, but with a strong desire, imports, as before, can be bought after even less in some segments and in the geography of deliveries, but not in volumes, exactly last year the country imported goods by three with a small percentage more. than a year earlier. at the same time, mart keeps his finger on the pulse. in order to avoid problems in the future, firstly, so that in the off-season there are potatoes and other vegetables and, of course, apples,

and secondly, import substitution is a long work only for this year, in the list of goods that need their own replacement 380 positions. it's not just food. and just a relatively few 25 products, the rest non-food offerings. and finally, a critical import is something that cannot be replaced . this is also a big job to ensure that the market works out new logistics or suppliers in the status of friendly partners, and at the same time, price regulation is by and large not an obstacle in order to solve the problems of ensuring assortment and preventing shortages. yes, it has not become easier to do, but at least it has saved buyers from the feeling that only he is paying for all the hardships of the current reality. natalya sergeevna continuing the topic of use stabilization funds are those who closely watch the meeting under the leadership of the head of state. yes, they know that the governors report to the head of state that

retail chains do not select stop-funds in the regions. eh, and like contracts. in each area there are retail chains. well, here's the reason why retail prefers to import, rather than sell, uh, domestic products. uh, quality you know what we've been doing this whole period of time. they also worked, there are farms and agricultural enterprises. there are separate farmers. of course, i'm not aware this is a situation that the governor has quite, but probably not all were held the day before. uh, at the end sometime in november. seminars were held in all areas. we went to the farm and looked at the first, as aleksey igorevich said , and there were plans for laying and sampling. yes, uh, they

all, uh, the suppliers agreed to sign contracts for the entire off-season period, not all of them. why? because they understood that it wasn't all that easy? uh-huh and of course, like normal hosts. i don't have any condemning their decision, because they look in such a way that they also do not burn out. we are talking about everything today in fairness. they also owe their work. uh, get a reward so that this item doesn't go missing. and, of course, at the first stage, with such a farm estimate, uh, they began to ship. goods with a lot of non-conformity and, of course, retail having acceptance standards, of course, did not come across here in order to accept the goods in full, but we are leveling off, yes, now we are leveling off,

we are engaged in correspondence, we prove that what we will choose. we know our volumes. we have pledged what we need. we must definitely negotiate. that's exactly you nikolaevich. uh, they are involved in this work by subscribing to stabilization funds. the fact is that, of course, we have in our repositories. we have a state farm in minsk, it’s called here near minsk and where we grow vegetables, including stored ones, and then we sell them, well, today we worked, mainly with our own trade, we have more than 100 stores, which we provide plus enterprises public. the manufacturer's here, how do you rate the quality of the product. eh, after a certain period of leshka, that is, it really does, it loses its condition a lot, or you have some kind of production know-how tricks. do you know where

today? uh, technology is respected, where modern storage is today, where storage technologies are maintained. there are no problems. this recipe is common to everyone and for those who grow it is necessary to observe the technology in the strictest way, and for those who store and for those who sell it is also necessary comply with technology alexei igorevich is a difficult topic, imports last time. we, too, uh, broke a lot of spears in this direction. have we managed to build a system of control over prices for imported products? and the question is not an easy one, because, uh, not the ministry of antimonopoly regulation and trade, not the state control committee. well , they cannot fully reach out to non-residents, so far, in any case , there is a well-known case when it

is formed abroad with import intermediaries. uh, the main share of e marginality is in this chain. creation of value, er, this violates the interests of us ordinary consumers and at a meeting with the head of state. e, there were also unequal conditions for domestic producers and importers. it turns out that we squeezed our own, and the importers are in the gray zone. here, as it were, unequal conditions were noted in a different vein, possibly unequal conditions in a different vein, including the fact that, for example, trade has the opportunity, if it is simultaneously an importer of 2 allowances, to use and uh, it is not profitable, for example , take belarusian goods. well here we know this problem, we know this problem, it is not a large-scale small scale, it occurs in some individual cases, but we have already developed a mechanism. how to solve it? it will be an early submission. uh-huh and it will be possible to have both imported and belarusian goods

in no less proportion on the commodity shelf. we will fix the problems. there aren't any here. what's more, it's a lot. uh, what about the control of import prices of contract prices. here we have developed a mechanism for interaction with the committee with the state customs the committee has developed a special methodology for the state customs committee to track all imported goods, both from a third country and from the territory of the jewish economic union. eh, according to their three patterns. well, already revealing the details, it is compared with previous years with a standard price. and so on and so forth , he has a technique once a week that unloads us the database of those that have exceeded the peaks that need to be paid attention to, and we are already sorting it out. that is, i apologize. this allows. uh, here, the regulatory body, and you and everyone interested in the essence is to see whether the price at which the goods are imported exceeds the real market value there in other countries correctly, if the same imported goods grew in russia, and we grew by the corresponding percentage. here i am alone now in the analysis, then this,

in principle, is normal. if, for example, it does not grow there, but it is here, then some kind of speculation is present to understand. and it's already work. it will take a long time for the fight against the unfounded to be devoted to the unjustified immediate. and here, by the way, is a vivid example uh, last week. uh, the court supported our position. there were more than half a million rubles fined by the economic entity, which overestimated our belarusian entity instead of thirty percent of the surcharge case 267 or more percent of the surcharge on vegetables. we revealed this in the gomel region and such a decision was made and the court supported us. the japanese call such part the divine wind. that is , kamikaze yes, to imagine such an impossible to organized, uh, trade such someone planned for himself and courage. well, dear guests, if we consider the issues in this slightly more philosophical way, because these are those who follow the information agenda, the coverage. the head

of state has red thread. there are questions of justice. yes social justice in particular. here is the price education and justice are categories compatible and what place does the social responsibility of each participant take here? i mean, uh, producers and consumers and retail retail, which today organized retail has been formed in the country yes, he is very responsible. you can take my words with criticism, but we are absolutely in solidarity. absolutely responsible and we always work in the legislative framework. if suddenly some kind of puncture happens somewhere, but i cannot be such an expert, because i am not a controlling body. but if this

happens, it can only be from a lack of understanding of the interpretation of the law absolutely unintentionally, right? or, well, even the second, i have no option. our trade hmm has shown its social responsibility orientation since last year when we concluded between the ministry of this monopoly regulation of trade and trade associations of 17 largest retail chains. an agreement was signed under this document to provide a 10% discount for social strata of the population. you know what the results are, so they are very positive, by the way, i note that every time we receive citizens at the reception of citizens, we receive gratitude from such a category that received these benefits, and in general, for this period of time last year and the current period, more than 1.5 million cards were issued pieces and the amount, which from provided themselves. this is not it. they did not have the right to demand a discount on these goods from

the manufacturer; well, they have already provided 24 million rubles. granted. here is a total of all. eh, special. well, definitely. this directly testifies to the social responsibility of our retail. i'll tell you more, i don't want to add alexey igorevich that we have been given the right to use the shopping center. yes , i believe that this also applies to justice and responsibility to reduce beads do not use the maximum trade estimates. well trust me. and indeed this is the case, uh, with the cucumbers that my colleague mentioned. yes, there is 0.82% yes, the cucumber was more than ten rubles. but, well, i decided. hey seller. we don't want to lose our customers. we do not want to lose respect, and

we will continue to follow this path was the fact that when our contract with march ended for this social discount program, in general, when we began to decide to renew not to renew, on which conditions to renew then for the first quarter we have no one against him everything unanimously decided, it means to close the winter for the first quarter. to extend these discounts for the first quarter. of course, they seriously affect the financial impact of the enterprise, but this is a completely voluntary action. in general, to support those people who need it today, it is nice to hear that an effective and fair pricing system for producers, importers and trade is being created by the government on behalf of the head of state. first deputy prime minister nikolai

snabkov met at the end of last week with retailers and manufacturers. after all, all belarusians benefit from this. at the same time, it was not about working at a loss, since the government is interested in the development of both our production and trade business, it is open to constructive proposals supported by arguments and figures. an expert council has been created under the ministry of antimonopoly regulation and trade, which will act as a platform for interaction between government agencies and business, the purpose of its work is prompt discussion. ideas and development of development mechanisms, taking into account the position of all interested and the first vice-premier, highlighted the key points for all market participants. let's listen. the key moment of the message in general, what we want to do in the market of the republic of belarus, it consists of three elements in order of importance. the first element is

the manufacturer of the republic of belarus, today we are obliged to seize the moment and promote as much as possible by helping to promote the products of a domestic manufacturer. point number two, price, price, fair retail not unprofitable, because we also can't afford today. uh, plunge our belarusian networks into losses. they should be developed taking into account the fact that there is a rather active and aggressive external expansion of the entry into our networks market. and it will not be entirely rational to kill our own in order for others to come and the third moment of saturation, but we managed not to market. it was retail that did a decent job here; it was difficult both from the point of view of logistics and from the point of view of pricing issues, saturation,

while being the key point. alexey igorevich how is the work on creating expert council and what are the plans for its further activities, we promptly set about its creation. this is a very good idea. we'll be frank. we have been constantly working with manufacturers and importers in trade as part of our work. march well, here there will be a group that will focus on problems that may arise or technical issues that may arise during, uh, further work within the framework of resolution 713 has already been formed . so about the group prepared its regulations work, and we have already sent a request and now to all those interested who were at this meeting and so on in order to u collect uh, already in the current version. what are the technical problematic issues, what are the proposals for improving the system

? the document is still alive and can be further corrected or even alternative. what is the most important goal of this group. we can't constantly regulate the market. so tough it is, well, the price regulation is very tough. is it possible to develop other alternative mechanisms mechanisms for strict price regulation, for example, some kind of code of good practice in trade, this may be one of the options. yes, we have been working on the third code for more than a year before, but it did not concern price regulation. therefore, if we want to limit it here in the future. in this version , of course, we will need to work on a special head, where we will stipulate, among other things, issues of price regulation and the responsibility of trade of producers and everyone else on so that we can ensure a fair price, therefore, of course, the tasks of this council. they are big plan already to gather a group. uh, either this is either next week and discuss the first questions

that we will receive, so to speak, tell me, will the composition of this council be constant or change for specific questions, the composition will be constant, it will be small, not wide, including manufacturers and importers. uh, suppliers and retailers. well, plus a few responsible ministries of departments, but be involved in these meetings workers can be a wide range of people, invited invited persons, depending on what issue is being discussed, the more we hear. uh, representatives somewhere in the economy, the more we will understand how to correctly correlate certain issues here so as not to disturb the economic environment. it is very important not to disturb the economic. this is a very important economic environment. can't be broken. mikhail ivanovich, tell me, here you are, as a representative of a large manufacturing enterprise. how do you feel about news like this? information on the establishment of such an expert council. and in your opinion. these are the questions. well, as a matter of priority

, such a body should be heard, i understand. it is like a bridge between the horika retail business and the government. yes, because the government through this council can keep abreast of business, take information firsthand, business in the person of the council will have that bridge conductor where you can quickly convey information to the first persons . i would, for example, immediately here is a rally in continuation of what he said. well, i probably should have looked. and how do we have these marginal trade allowances set at 713 today, maybe for vegetables. exactly expensive, they are high. you understand, and i would discuss with my colleagues there what to do? and how is it better to do it and the fact that today the first deputy prime minister

gathered and listened to everyone today, after all, i don’t remember this. this is such an open dialogue with business in the retail environment. well, it has become a new normality, uh, criticizing is justified, may not be a very substantiated legendary ruling. e, 713, or rather its second version, in your opinion, what is wrong with it, if it has flaws and what needs to be changed, so you have the opportunity to publicly announce this, how do you see an effective and fair pricing system from the field to the counter? you know for me the discovery that retail criticized in no way did we criticize, we did not discuss from a point of view. why from what for what we spoke on the merits

of the mechanics of execution, including this was in we are the only one and the first on some points that were prescribed to us, as a strict execution. we didn't quite understand how it works? how is this wording? maybe we practice? yes, we are the first question. do you remember alexei igorevich, we asked a question about revaluation. yes, because he simply broke our idea of ​​consciousness. we didn't understand how to get out of the situation and i want to tell you, it was right for tomorrow. first meeting in march. we discussed and posed the question yes indeed. 12.000 appeal the association also accepted in this participation. and of course, in general, the whole business. e just a question-answer question-answer, we received them, we finalized these answers. if

we talk about a fair price from the field to the counter. there is an expression if you want to have a friend, be yourself. here it can be rephrased to our relationship. do you want to earn? yes, then let's negotiate, and you earn together, so that both survive and produce more and sell more and move forward and the manufacturer or retail trade is absolutely certain, but i want to tell you. we have a business with a human face. we have retail with human face. we are not monsters in fact and with partners in most cases. we absolutely find relationships healthy. but, that is, in the personal result of the radiat that you

said a fair price to our journalists. we walked around one of the shopping centers in minsk and asked buyers about consumer preferences and pricing, what is most often in their cart wolf in the field the voice of the people on the country's main tv channel. let's get a look. underground pier with three floors and more than 20,000 commercial squares shopping center stolitsa has been operating for over 15 years. and let the facility be one of the oldest in the country. today it is a space where trends are set. here , the concept of shopping has been completely revised , focusing on our belarusian brands. from local furniture manufacturers to large chain stores of clothing and footwear, as well as haberdashery and accessories, carpets, dishes , various souvenir products, to sell their own. that was the president's instruction. as a result, after a large-scale transformation. the result was the first domestic mega showroom, which

is now 98% occupied. we are with you near a new outlet, which is open in a new modern format. you can observe what a huge assortment is presented, ranging from products and by-products to the showcase where various smoked meat sausages are presented . and now we have come to another favorite store, where the products of belarusian manufacturers of the brest region are presented. here we have a dairy showcase, where a very large assortment of dairy butter products and we can pay attention to the showcase with and. there is no such assortment today in any hypermarket, the most popular cheese in our country is mondor grano. it is an aged cheese of nine months. it has already become like a hallmark of our store with a pozhitnik. this is the taste and aroma

of walnuts, these cheeses, e with a hood and on the right. from those countries, this gourmet cheeses are also called rap pestles. it comes with sun-dried tomatoes and how much such delicacies cost. you know so much the budget for it , uh, it's worth the hardest aged cheese. our maximum price is 31.68, and if we take from from e, from 15 rubles. so on one site, you can not only make a gastronomic journey through the regions, but also get acquainted with technical know-how, there were russian laptops and legendary motorcycles , products of the flagships of light industry, important for each product. there is a buyer, and each buyer has an assortment palette and price range selected by several yes branded stores in one place. well, it's great to see everything. secondly, we probably all know the quality of these products. well, until it failed, we are in search of

a t-shirt. here uh, like the quality of 19 rubles. and -40% discount. that is, it’s normally pleasant, well, we came from russia, i don’t know the hero city of moscow, we arrived just for a few days and decided to take a walk to see what this city offers us for chocolate. uh, the cost is cheaper than we are planning belarusian cosmetics. my girlfriend asked me to buy mascara, the prices are absolutely affordable. even the shoes we bought a lot of stocks here, even the shoes of the stocks were bought by a very child satisfied. doesn't even take them off. simply, of course there is. it seems to notice at the congress, but as if for the main products that i buy, i globally grow. i don’t see this even now, most importantly, under the brand name made by belarus, everyone is waiting for not only quality, a fair price tag here, there are quite such long queues and products are always in disintegration. that is, you have to deliver by induction to meet consumer demand. well , of course, uh, our prices are regulated exists in our 713 resolution and

today from the date of entry into force we have not raised prices for our enterprises, that is, we maintain a stable pricing policy in order to ensure, in principle, the availability of our products, such a successful business, there is a trading model in belarus as the capital. aleksey igorevich, it must be admitted that your ministry, which you head, is at the forefront of the system of price regulation. at the very center of interaction between consumers , retail producers and the government apparatus . tell me what are your plans for development of the price regulation system. here is his e her further adaptation to the realities of the time. that is, perhaps something needs to be strengthened, and something should be abandoned, how to ensure the solution of the tasks set by the head of state. you know, we

have been thinking for a long time about how effective price regulation is, after all. this is one of the toughest tools. but, apparently, with all the pros and cons, probably the best tool. here is the current situation. just no. just no, it's really hard and the geopolitical situation and everything else, and it was impossible to act differently in this situation, so the president gave a clear message to the government. it complied with the decision adopted by the new system works. after four months , it showed its effectiveness. and, of course, we will grind on it. that's it , we will improve it, but in answer to your question , i will say that today this methodology is used not only by march, but also by other ministries. today, the regulator is enough, broad in health. uh, it's adjustable. the construction industry is regulated by

tariff services regulated by agriculture. today, four rulings adopted regulating their issues. and of course. here is our ministry on the cutting edge. it , as a coordinator of all their methodological issues on the implementation of these systems, and here we conduct a lot of consultations and participate in working groups so that this experience, uh, could be applied by other departments. eh, from a point of view. here is the introduction of price regulation. therefore, i think that in this vein we are still in the current situation, we will and will continue to develop to one degree or another. eh, strengthening or weakening? there can be no control over price regulation . regulatory authorities continue to record cases of violations of legislation in the field of pricing. it is known that more than 100 objects of trade and officials have been brought to justice, and more than

50 criminal cases have been initiated on the facts of unreasonable price increases. so who are they willing to abide by the new pricing rules. and what drives them. well, you know, the presence of violations is not speaks of a bad law, since it does not say the presence of criminals in any country in the world that a bad criminal code rules are developed. they are absolutely clear spaced all on them to work. well, someone may be violating the task of controllers in order to find such violators and put them in their place out of 127,000 commercial objects that we have in the commercial register today, uh, cases of violation. they are, well, just minimal , just minimal, for the most part they have organized trade, uh, they don't violate them, you know, they have automated accounting. there, the computer entered once and everything immediately diverges to the entire network, we fix the majority of violations, and not only we and the state control committee and others, the inspection bodies fix it in small trade organizations where

the human factor is triggered, summarizing our conversation, dear guests. you have the opportunity to apply. so for consumers , manufacturers, retailers or the government, here's how to ensure fair pricing with the iron hand of the state, or self-regulate aleksey yurievich well, first. i would appeal to our citizens, consumers. i would like to assure them that fair pricing will be strictly controlled and enforced, that is, together with our manufacturers, we provide a wide range of goods, and we have already proved in this short period of time that we can do this as a trade manufacturer and importer . i would like to say, so dear colleagues. let's work together to do it, yes, they're challenging, yes, they're standard, yes. creative idea, fair price education control emotional

education. and we will not refuse this idea in the near future until the situation stabilizes, we will be tough on it. follow only the general line. well, you know, in it i would like to say the words of all good. you know in the cartoon guys, let's live together, but is it serious, then justice is the best thing that can be in general in any society. and fair means honestly without deceit. in full confidence i must say that a fair price is she formed in the market participants. yes, and she falls into the category. uh, such social responsibility uh-huh. here, using this understanding , you need to understand it with your head, using this

understanding. we will achieve the desired results. we can make a happy life in our country, and i must say with full confidence that retail is set up for such relationships, and we will follow this path , i can say that modernization. saturation of the market with import-substituting goods in sufficient quantities is one of the main factors and curbing the flywheel of inflation. then and trade will work with the domestic producer and today, no one thinks that the bird can be brought from abroad from overseas. we were pushed to this very strongly and in individual countries, very cool. pushed when the whole industry was simply

destroyed. and the most important thing is to modernize today to produce the goods that are in demand on the domestic market on the foreign market. including we should not forget this and thus restrain this flywheel of inflation, which is trying to unravel in every way. thank you for your opinion, we thank our guests and say goodbye to you. let your consumer basket be complete and affordable. be socially responsible and work for the future, and then the economic environment will be

favorable for you, goodbye. this is a show in which there is humor excitement and dexterity, so that it is not excruciatingly painful and ashamed of the past years. it is better to be in our program for the viewers of the model, let it be. yes, god knows, right. well, yes, we had the first six months of latin, we should have already
