Matvienko: the Russian government is dealing with the issue of fuel prices for farmers

MOSCOW, October 2 – RIA Novosti. The Russian government is closely involved in the issue of fuel pricing for agricultural producers, said Federation Council Speaker Valentina Matvienko.

“We ask, of course, that the government monitor the fuel so as not to ruin our grain growers and producers. I know that the government (this issue – ed.) is working very closely,” the speaker of the Federation Council said at a chamber meeting with the participation of Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak.
