Russia out of poverty?

The Russian economy is gradually recovering, so the first half of our country has been able to make substantial progress in the ranking of poverty index. Now the value of the rating Bloomberg is 12,6% whereas as last year it amounted to 20,2%, RBC daily. Most of the dynamics can be observed only in Ukraine, its decline of the index was 9.1%. Experts believe that the improved performance due to effective anti-in-inflation and unemployment. For example, in June the number of a job has exceeded the number of dropouts by 23,3 thousand persons or 0,1%. True, if we believe indicators of the first half of 2010, six months, the number of retired workers will still be larger than hired by 32,8 thous. But now many worries of inflation. And suppose it is quite low (only 4.7% in the first half), it is likely that it will grow, experts say. In their view, the main reason, drought, probably because of heat waves will increase the price seriously.
