At the same time, reduction of crude oil extraction from the cost-intensive deposits, first of all, in the US, is offset by the built up production by leading OPEC countries who strive to increase their market share. In 2016, Iran and Saudi Arabia have significantly raised their crude oil output. Russia has also built up production, which hit all-time high since 1990. In 2017, one should expect relatively low oil prices to remain. At the same time, some growth is feasible in comparison with the current year.","PeriodicalId":187667,"journal":{"name":"Russian Economic Developments","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130604425","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The above factor is indirect evidence of the fact that households keep spending a similar amount of funds as in the previous year on purchasing of a smaller quantity of import products. However, as regards dairy products, there is a reduction of the import both in volumes and in monetary (foreign currency and ruble) terms which situation could create conditions for import substitution. Below, the nuances of that process are considered.","PeriodicalId":187667,"journal":{"name":"Russian Economic Developments","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130424635","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the same time, substitution of consumption of investment goods – from foreign ones to domestic ones – does not take place: a decline in economic activities is accompanied by a drop both in domestic production and import. Volatility of the national currency (some appreciation of the national currency in April–May followed by depreciation to the level of February–March in July-August) did not have a significant effect either on the dynamics of export or that of import: participants in foreign economic activities did not start to change their business decisions in response to short-term appreciation or weakening of the exchange rate of the national currency. It is to be noted that growth in the export of the non-primary sector either in monetary or physical terms did not take place, either. An insignificant increase in physical volumes of the export was observed only in groups of commodities with a low- and mid-level of processing (non-diversified ones).","PeriodicalId":187667,"journal":{"name":"Russian Economic Developments","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130029501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Quite predictably, Mr. A. Navalny, an opposition politician, was not put behind the bars after hearing his case at the courts of appeal. However, he was deprived of an active electoral right and will now have to take a lot of pains to stake out his niche in the opposition politics where the electorate engaged in some projects easily flows to other ones.
