“We will not simply stand around.

“Above all else, the domestic farming industry must satisfy the needs of the Russian market and facilitate a proper balance, especially in terms of costs. We should only export surplus grain harvests. Proceeding from this logic, the government will gradually resume its measures of support with the goal of securing the position that our grain producers once held on the world markets. But I will repeat once more: our priority is domestic consumption.”
“It is expected that the additional budget revenue will exceed 800 billion roubles by the end of 2011. I would like to point out specifically that two-thirds of this amount come from what is called the non-oil-and-gas sector. This means that the industries that are not directly related to the production of oil and gas are doing well and generating more and more budget revenue.”
