@timbow614 шf we look at dollar gasoline prices, they have increased by 60% in retail over the year," the economist said. - If we look at our gasoline price in rubles, it increased by 6.6% - Rosstat reported, this is the most recent data for the year. In dollars, almost an order of magnitude mire. Lithium, nickel, aluminum – all this has grown in dollars by tens of percent only since the beginning of the year, and it also got more expensive before, but now it has accelerated. And we have it growing much slower in rubles. This means that it is pointless to tie the ruble purely to gold.
