OREANDA-NEWS The situation with inflation and rising prices in the Russian Federation is under control, Russian President Vladimir Putin said at a meeting with the military at the A. A. Vishnevsky Hospital.

"We have slightly increased inflation, prices have risen. But everything is controlled," Putin said.

At the same time, he drew attention to the growth of processing industries. "We have never had such a thing, we have been sadly saying all the time that the main income is from oil and gas. For the first time in many years, in our economic structure, the growth of processing industries far exceeds revenues from oil and gas. Revenues from oil and gas, in my opinion, are 3%, and the processing industry has given many times more, this has never happened," the president stressed.
