Putin said the ineffectiveness of subsidies "Post of Russia"

Subsidies to mail do not have the necessary effect on reducing tariffs for regional media: even with the support that was provided earlier, Post of Russia was working at a loss, said the president of the Russian Federation, the leader of the All-Russian People's Front (ONF), Vladimir Putin.

On Monday, Putin takes part in the plenary session of the IV Media Forum of independent regional and local media "Truth and Justice", which annually hosts the ONF. One of the participants of the media forum touched upon the problem of increasing the tariffs of the "Post of Russia" for regional mass media.

"All subsidies that were previously provided, and which were actually rolled up in the past or the year before last, still did not allow the" Post of Russia "to exit even to zero.However, the Post of Russia, even with these subsidies, worked at a loss - the year before last, In my opinion, more than three billion, in the past - more than two billion, so subsidies in general do not give us the desired effect, "Putin said during the meeting.
