Ukraina vist ei jõua kahjuks ära oodata veremaa kõngemist, seal pannakse trumpi poolt pealesurutud ‘rahuleping’ rahvahääletusele vist kevadel.
Nii putleri kui oraanži käpik orban jääb vist ka võimust ilma peale 16 aastat, pollid näitavad, et pro-EU oppositsioon võidab valimised aprillis, kuigi orbani pundil on kompra (seksvideod) ja värgid valmis pandud.
Samal ajal venes, kurgid kui uus kuld…
Russians have flooded social media to complain that they are being forced to give up taxis, manicures, cinema tickets — and cucumbers. “Cucumbers have now become a luxury item,” a St Petersburg resident complained in a vlog detailing the items she has been forced to forgo as prices have risen. Cucumbers are priced at up to 500 roubles (almost £5) per kg.
On social media platforms, hundreds of videos show Russians oscillating between despair and gallows humour as they confront once-familiar goods on supermarket shelves now carrying eye-watering price tags. “What’s happening with food prices?” one young woman despaired. “What are we going to eat? Pasta and water? I don’t buy clothes or cosmetics, I don’t go to the doctor, I try not to buy any supplements or pills. All that’s left to do is give up food.”
In the first 12 days of January, Rosstat reported a 1.26% rise in prices. In that window, the cost of cucumbers leapt by 21.3% and that of tomatoes by 13.6%.
In Russia, where for decades the average household has been forced to spend 30 per cent of its income on food, these increases have been particularly painful. Last year, the price of fish is thought to have increased by 22%, coffee by 15-25%, tea by 10-20%, seasonal fruit by 15-20% and trips on public transport by as much as 20%.
Bank of Russia survey last month said consumer confidence fell to a 3-year low at the start of 2026, with 53% of respondents complaining about a “very strong” rise in prices. -the Times
