Mikhail Mishustin spoke about Prigozhin’s attempted rebellion

Mikhail Mishustin at a meeting with Deputy Prime Ministers spoke about the events of June 24. The prime minister called the Wagner rebellion “another challenge.” “An attempt was made to destabilize the situation inside Russia,” he said.

At the same time, Mishustin made the main emphasis on the fact that the entire machine of the West is directed against Russia – there is a struggle for the right to choose one’s own path. In this situation, according to him, the consolidation of the whole society and all the forces around the president is important.

The prime minister stressed that during the crisis on June 24, all ministries and departments continued to work and controlled the situation, “in order to prevent the situation from worsening and protect citizens from all possible threats.”

After that, the meeting participants reported on the measures taken by government members to ensure the smooth operation of the supervised industries.

Thus, First Deputy Prime Minister Andrei Belousov said that in 15 regions of the country there was an increase in demand for cash by an average of 30%, and in the Voronezh, Rostov and Lipetsk regions by 70-80%. “All ATMs worked normally, now the situation has completely stabilized,” Belousov said.

He also noted the growth in demand in retail chains: in the Rostov region by 10-15%, in the Lipetsk region by 30%, in the Voronezh region by 50%. According to the First Deputy Prime Minister, there are enough stocks of products, price measurements are being carried out – “so far everything is stable.” Belousov also said that the road surface on the Don highway was restored by Sunday morning, but traffic jams on the highway still persist.

The rest of the deputy prime ministers also assured Mishustin that their complexes worked properly – medicines in pharmacies in the regions where the CTO regime was introduced are in the required volume, additional fuel was delivered to gas stations with an increase in demand as quickly as possible. According to Alexander Novak, the explosion of the oil depot in Voronezh did not affect the provision of the region with oil products.

Dmitry Chernyshenko said that universities that have been transferred online will begin full-time work from June 27. The canceled high school proms are likely to take place on July 1st.
