The Minister of Finance promised to increase the minimum wage to 35 thousand rubles by 2030

TASS news agency reports interesting news from the newly elected State Duma of the IX convocation. Speaking with MPs, Finance Minister Anton Siluanov said that the task set by the President to raise the minimum wage to 35 thousand rubles will be fully fulfilled ... by 2030.

According to the head of the department, this beneficent measure will accelerate the growth of incomes of workers with low wages. However, such a promise of the Ministry of Finance did not cause delight in the ranks of deputies - these promises seemed painfully stretched in time.

In particular, MP Eleanor Kavshar said that the minimum wage should be brought to the target not by 2030, but by the next, 2027. .
