Under these conditions, bread manufacturers are concerning the price to grow. In such a situation, the country must save Ukrainian bakers as well as consumers, "said the head of government Denys Shmyhal.
The government has developed several assessment tools. On December 24, they were considered. The next step is to implement the tools, which have been approved.
Some of the tools used to resolve the issue include:
- Use of assistance tools to equalize world pure gasoline prices;
- Restrictions on the mark-up of certain public and meal items.
Such steps will make it possible to stem the rise of the price for most essential goods for Ukrainians. Interviews are currently being held with representatives of social food companies. The government also notes that the purpose of all the decisions taken is not to create new agribusiness points or markets for products but to strengthen and retain existing projects.
