Monetary policy has been loose for the last year, and before the Duma election the government started pouring huge sums into pensions and other social welfare transfers. Not surprisingly, inflation has shot up from 7% last spring to 11% currently, and may reach 15% in the spring.
去年的货币政策是很宽松的，而在杜马选举前政府开始向养老金和其他社会福利转移注入巨额资金。于是毫不惊讶地，通货膨胀率从去年春季的7%暴涨到了现在的11%，并且可能会在明天春季达到15%。
