This milk

 Contrasting the products of Russian companies production subsidiaries of foreign companies, Fedorov said: “In these [foreign] products a maximum of 20% of the milk, the rest – converted into milk mixture of coconut, palm oil and other additives.” Large processors reduce the purchase milk from producers, which leads to lower purchasing prices on the market than the transnationals are actively using, the minister said. “It turns out that the government subsidizes the production of milk from the budget, but they are buying it on the cheap and actually pumped himself a lot of money,” – said the head of the Ministry of Agriculture.

Despite the fact that, speaking of multinational companies, Fedorov did not call specific names, the response was immediate. French Danone, already 20 years working in the Russian market, the statement by the Minister at his own expense, and released an angry press release on its official website.

«We are not only outraged by such statements the official, but regard them as a direct slander, causing damage to our reputation both in Russia and around the world,” – said in a statement Danone, on the official site Russian representative office. The statement stressed that the quality of the company’s products have never been challenged by Rospotrebnadzor, and contributions to the budget of Russia for the time of Danone in Russia amounted to about $ 2 billion. “We demand a public refutation of false, defamatory information we have,” – said in a corporation .

Danone’s position was supported by a large lobbying organization – Association Soyuzmoloko. “We will appeal to the government to clarify the reasons for such statements to understand this government’s position or opinion of one or more people,” – said the head of RBC Soyuzmoloko Andrei Danilenko. He has no evidence to have any regulatory bodies, including the CPS, had a claim to the production of Danone or PepsiCo (owned manufacturer of dairy products “Wimm-Bill-Dann”). “Complaints are most often just to small producers and transnational companies are very concerned about their image and will not use any palm oil or vegetable oil, to violate the laws of Russia”, – said RBC Danilenko.

Case Danone and PepsiCo

 The Ministry of Agriculture insist that the minister was not wrong address. “The reason for the statement of the Minister of Agriculture was my speech at the meeting in the Ministry of Agriculture about the activities of the companies Danone and PepsiCo in the Russian market”, – told RBC Head of Animal Husbandry and Breeding of Ministry of Agriculture Vladimir Labinov. According to him, these companies systematically reduce the amount of the purchase of raw milk from producers for several years in a row. Despite requests the Ministry of Agriculture, they have not provided any information once in full, according to the representative office.

«We had to ask for Statistics subjects and regions on the basis of which the conclusions were drawn: the dynamics of reduction is evident in all subjects – said Labinov. – The second problem is that Danone in recent years consistently closes dairies, which they bought from “Unimilk” – in Tver, Kostroma, and Novosibirsk regions. And we do not have information about what Danone and PepsiCo set out to develop milk production and to build plants as a business ».

Danilenko schitet that the Ministry of Agriculture chose the wrong time to settle old scores. “Problems in the industry, but they are not in transnational corporations, and in the approach of the Ministry of Agriculture and the fact that Russian processors milk subsidies on production of raw milk are delayed, – says the head Soyuzmoloko. – And they, unlike global companies are not able to live without the money.

Information Ministry of Agriculture that large companies have reduced purchases of milk in Soyuzmoloko do not dispute that in Russia, milk production is reduced, and after for this fall purchasing volumes. And after the closed import more raw materials needed and milk powder producers and cheesemakers, and his was no more, says Danilenko.

The new regulation

 Labinov says that after a verbal duel next steps for greater regulation of the market for dairy producers. Ministry of Agriculture wants to introduce new technical regulations on milk and dairy products, prohibiting the use of adjectives such as “sour”, “cheese” product, leaving only the actual “white” dairy products “component (up to 50% of the ingredients, such as cheese and jam and nuts), and others forbid call related adjectives. Also, there are plans to standardize the protein content in milk – in Russia now produced products with an 2.8%, but in Europe – 3.2-3.4%, and a low protein content allows producers from the same amount of raw materials to make more products .

In this endeavor, the Ministry of Agriculture counteracted large companies through the association Soyuzmoloko that appeals, including the fact that while dairy products will become inaccessible to the poor, says Labinov. “In his desire to prevent the introduction of new rules they write complaints about the activities of the Technical Committee for Standardization, which I chair,” – he laments.

Russia and Iran plan to build settlements in national currencies. Central banks are now developing mechanisms for this. Told reporters in Tehran, Minister of Economic Development of Russia Alexei Ulyukayev. And his department only “for”.

At the current stage – it is “very difficult history,” said Ulyukayev, as there are various exchange rate dynamics and the parties have not decided yet, use the cross-rate through the dollar or some other way to fix the current ratio of the two rates.

More One difficulty of implementing settlement – central banks of the two countries should have correspondent relationships. “Iranian banks under sanctions, if not all, but, nevertheless, is not an easy mode” – the minister said.

In addition, the Minister said that Russia plans to build non-oil exports to Iran, including supplies the oil and gas equipment, agricultural machinery, automobiles, aviation, cars, police cars, electric generators.

Plus – Ability to use general aviation, rail transportation, including discussing the possibility of the development of the transit railway route from Iran to Russia via Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan.

In the meantime, the state of trade and economic relations between Russia and Iran can not be considered satisfactory, noted in the Ministry of Economic Development.

Goods traditional Iranian exports – fruits and nuts – are popular in Russia, as well as in Iran, Russian grain, metals and wood. Although the opportunities for mutual deliveries much more.

Oil is rapidly becoming cheaper in anticipation of OPEC meeting Economy – NewsEra.ru – ERA News

MOSCOW, November 27 – RIA Novosti. World oil prices falling amid fears of investors that OPEC will not cut production rates, according to the auction.

As of 8.37 MSK January futures price for North Sea Brent crude oil mixture was reduced by 2.37% to 76.52 dollars per barrel. Cost of January futures for light WTI crude oil fell by 1.87% and amounted to 72.73 dollars per barrel.

Investors fear that OPEC will not reduce despite the overabundance of demand. In particular, Reuters reported with reference to the three delegates meeting that reduce oil production quotas will not happen. OPEC delegates said that, most likely, the organization will not take any steps in relation to the production level, since Russia is not going to cut it. On Wednesday, the head of “Rosneft” Igor Sechin, in an interview with Bloomberg said that the drop in oil prices below $ 60 a barrel will not make the Russian Federation to reduce oil production.

OPEC meeting will be held in Vienna on November 27, the country must make a decision, whether they will go to reduce production at the background of deteriorating outlook for global oil consumption and a significant increase in production in the United States. It will be one of the most important meetings of the organization in recent years, since June, oil prices have fallen by about a third. Venezuela said it was ready to cut oil production if OPEC decides. Representatives of Libya and Venezuela agreed with this initiative. Iran has also said it will support the reduction of prices in the course of the meeting.

However, Saudi Oil Minister Ali al-Naimi said Wednesday it expects oil “finally stabilizes itself.” Investors interpreted this statement as a rejection of the reduction in oil production. If OPEC decides to maintain the level of production, it would mean a price war in which Saudi Arabia and other Gulf countries will be able to have a confrontation at the expense of cash reserves. However, for other countries, such as Venezuela or Iran, it will be a big test, Reuters reported.

«Some OPEC members believe that it is time to protect the market share … All market experts believe that the market right now there is oversupply, which will increase in the next year “- leads the agency Minister Bijan Namdar Iran’s oil Zangane.

The President demanded that the defense industry factories maximum efficiency – News

The President demanded that the defense industry factories maximum efficiency – News

Press and Information of Russian President / kremlin.ru

At a meeting on the development of the military-industrial complex, President Vladimir Putin have representatives of the defense industry to the need to not only ensure prompt replacement of components that are imported from abroad, but also to create their superior specimens.

– The task is not simply to replace imported products, although it is certainly important, but the main thing – we provide high quality new development. Products must be in terms of quality and price better than the foreign manufacturers and domestic enterprises have to get new competencies and technologies, including dual-use. Much of what we were getting on imports, has long been obsolete. We have an objective opportunity to advancing step – said the head of state.

So, after a sharp deterioration in relations with Ukraine there is a problem with the supply of engines from the company “Motor Sich”. The engines will be built already in Russian factories.

The president noted that the program of the defense order in 2014 successfully implemented.

– According to some accounts, which still has already taken organizational, technological, technical solutions, – said Vladimir Putin.

According to the President, for the next ten years, a certain type of military and special equipment.

– This will reduce the cost of service and maintenance of the same type of weapons and optimize the cost of training – the president said.

In particular, for the Army created a single tracked armored bay, on the basis of which will create a very different technique – from tanks and infantry fighting vehicles to vehicles intelligence and defense installations.

The President recalled that for retrofitting military factories allocated 3 trillion rubles.

– All this money should be spent as efficiently as possible. Need to reduce costs, optimize the production process, to ensure accurate coordination of subcontractors on the timing and volume of deliveries to DIC accumulating unfinished objects that are not available to the troops, but only require additional content service. And that defense companies are not faced with macroeconomic issues, including inflation processes – concluded Vladimir Putin.

OPEC remained with their barrels – Kommersant

OPEC remained with their barrels – Kommersant

Organization countries – Petroleum Exporting Countries yesterday did not reduce the amount of oil production quotas, keeping it at 30 million bbl. / Day for at least the next six months. Explain to the world that the culprit of this fall in prices is shale oil to the US and that the market itself stabilizes, oil ministers left no opportunity to revise the quota in the case of serious differences of supply and demand. Russian authorities, meanwhile, are preparing for budget cuts based on the price of $ 80 per barrel, and oil experts say about the existing margin of safety in the oil industry.

After the five-hour talks held yesterday at the headquarters of OPEC in Vienna, cartel participants could not agree on the maintenance of world oil prices. “In order to restore market balance Conference decided to maintain production at 30 million bbl. / Day, established in December 2011,” – said after the meeting the representative of Hassan Abdul Hamid, noting that cartel participants can change the decision “in the case of major changes in the balance of the oil market. ” Contrary to expectations, OPEC did not make statements about tighter control of production in excess of quotas (in October, the actual figure of 250 thousand. Bbl. / Day more than the agreed OPEC ceiling).

Such an outcome of the conference was predicted almost all market participants. Recall OPEC members resorted to a drastic reduction in production volumes since 2008. They did not do it and now, despite the drop in oil prices from the peak in July ($ 115 per barrel), more than a third. Last night, the cost of Brent crude fell below $ 72 a barrel – the lowest level since August 2010.

Unity positions before the meeting in Vienna was not. Gulf countries (notably Saudi Arabia – the largest member of the cartel), its unwillingness to change the quota attributed the lack of need to reduce production, naming the main cause of excess supply in the market shale oil from the United States. Representatives of Venezuela and Iran, on the other hand, advocated reducing production – in the case of reduction in countries outside the cartel. As reported by “Kommersant”, Russia two days before the summit OPEC tried unsuccessfully to persuade Saudi Arabia, Venezuela and Mexico to agree at least on a symbolic reduction in production quotas. After OPEC conference head of “Rosneft” Igor Sechin said that the potential decline in production in Russia is 200-300 thousand. Bbl. / Day.

According to experts, to quickly stabilize the market it would be enough to reduce quotas by 1 million barrels. / Day. However, according to the International Energy Agency, in the medium term basis for lower prices is not. “Reducing the price by itself spur consumption and acceleration of global economic growth will allow to increase the volume of demand in the second half of 2015,” – Johannes Benigni optimistic of JBC Energy. Reduction of quotas and rising oil prices would only further increase cost-shale production, says the expert Goldman Sachs.

On the performance of the Russian budget ending in 2014 OPEC decision will not have time to influence. Due to the high price of oil in the first half (the average price of Urals in January – October was $ 103 per barrel) and the devaluation of the budget in 2014, according to Finance Minister Anton Siluanova, will be executed with a surplus of 0.3-0.5 % of GDP. The situation with the budget-2015 is somewhat more complicated. Its costs are calculated on the basis of $ 96 per barrel, but little room for maneuver in cuts already approved state programs the government does not. Established before the fall of oil prices on the Commission to optimize budget expenditures now calculates the possibility of reducing expenditure in 2015 by 10%. Since the maneuver is limited (sequestration of social spending is not possible for political reasons), the authorities, while maintaining low oil prices promise to climb “in a jug.” Assessment Anton Siluanova, from the Reserve Fund in 2015 may have to spend 500 billion rubles. available there now 3.9 trillion rubles. Prior to this, the Ministry of Finance intends to devastate bailout reserve, which next year will be 120 billion rubles.

Thus, significant changes in fiscal policy can occur only when the layout of the next budget – in 2016. According to the head of the department of the Ministry of Finance long-term planning Maxim Oreshkin, treasury adaptation to a new level of oil prices should mean a tougher approach to spending. “The government needs to restructure the budget for the coming years, based on the price of $ 80 per barrel,” – said on the eve of Anton Siluanov. As told “Kommersant” Head of the Economic Expert Group Evsey Gurvich, only direct economic losses from reduced export earnings falling average price to $ 80 per barrel will be about $ 70 billion. For a budget 20 percent subsidence means a reduction of the average price of oil and gas revenues to $ 2 trillion rub. or 2.5% of GDP. Devaluation of the ruble can compensate for these losses by about 30%, but given the slower growth and higher inflation, budget losses may be higher.

For Russian oil companies decline in oil prices is less sensitive. Vice president of Moody’s in Russia Yulia Pribytkova explains the features of taxation – with prices as low as $ 10, revenues from exports fall by only $ 1.4-1.5 even without benefits. In this case, due to the devaluation of the ruble falling costs (in dollars) is faster than shrinking revenues. The cost of production on most deposits in Russia is still quite low – without taxes, operating expenses (excluding transportation) by an average of $ 04.05 per barrel, capital expenditures to maintain production levels – another $ 07.05, which is several times lower than that the world’s major companies, says the expert. According to the vice-president of LUKOIL Leonid Fedun, the sensitivity of Russian companies to dramatic price reductions “not very high” because of the flexibility of the ruble and the tax system. According to him, to LUKOIL production became unprofitable, the price should collapse below $ 25 per barrel.

The Ministry of Finance expects nedosdachu

If current market conditions, that is, the weakening of the ruble and maintaining oil prices at current levels, the budget losses could reach 500 billion rubles., said Wednesday Siluanov. At about the same amount his department estimates the losses associated with a decrease in the growth rate of the economy and the volume of imports.

1 trillion rubles. possible shortfalls calculated taking into account the weaker ruble compared to the budgeted, explained RBC Deputy Director of long-term strategic planning of the Ministry of Finance Elena Lebedinskaya. “That’s why there is a trillion, and no more – she said. – These estimates – at current prices, if it persists. The course is largely offset by losses in oil and gas, but not completely ».

Economic Development, which is scheduled in December adjust macroeconomic forecast, has not commented on the Ministry of Finance calculations. Own calculations ministry has not yet completed, so refrain from comments, said RBC deputy Alexei Vedev.

The ruble weakened now including due to political factors, and not just because of the price of oil or transfer of securities to the floating exchange rate, says the expert of Economic Expert Group Alexander Suslin. If the exchange rate will return to 40 rubles. per dollar, the evaluation of a trillion “very believable,” she said. But if GDP growth drops to zero, the assessment of possible shortfalls in the $ 1 trillion may be optimistic.

How to take half a trillion

Authorities plan to cover from the Reserve Fund of only 500 billion possible “shortage” in the budget, said Finance Minister. The missing half a trillion can find increasing domestic borrowing and “optimize” costs, says Lebedinskaya. Theoretically it is possible to increase the use of the Reserve Fund, she admits.

Work on possible budget cuts already underway, said on the air “Russia 24″ Head of long-term strategic planning of the Ministry of Finance Maxim Oreshkin. The government set up a commission headed by First Deputy Prime Minister Igor Shuvalov, who “seeks out” opportunities for optimization. Proposals on possible cost reductions will be ready by March, said Oreshkin.

The government will focus primarily on reducing government programs, a federal official said. Require the government can reduce costs and by state-owned companies. Moderate borrowing capacity he also admits: “But they must be reasonable – the president talked about this».

Economic Development Minister Alexei Ulyukayev said that the budget adjustments are not required, at least due to lower oil prices. “Of course, do not need any adjustments,” – he said on Wednesday (quoted by TASS). “According to the Ministry of Economic Development, the decline in oil prices by $ 1 leads ceteris paribus to 70-80 billion rubles. falling revenues of the federal budget, and the depreciation of the ruble against the dollar – to increase federal revenues by 200-250 billion rubles. “, – stated Assistant Minister Elena Lashkina in response to a request RBC. She noticed that the current mechanism of fiscal rules allows, if necessary, use the additional funds from the Reserve Fund to the budget costs.

The alternative of NWF

An alternative source could be the National Welfare Fund (NWF), believes Professor of Economics and Finance International Institute RANHiGS Lyudmila Pronin. Purpose of the Fund until 2015 “actually suspended,” she said, and assistance from the fund today, “ask and sundry”, such as “Rosneft” and Vnesheconombank. In this case, the FNB spend to cover the budget deficit would be more appropriate, according to Pronin.

FNB – “is not an option,” categorical Lebedinskaya of Finance: there can not be the direct costs of the law. The fact that the fund is permitted to use the existing regulations, doubts and other federal official.

Revision costs logical, but it may slow the growth, says Suslin. Capacity borrowing – is also an option, including the introduction of T-bills “on reasonable terms,” ​​the expert said. However, ICT has already made against Alexei Ulyukayev.

The main thing – that the authorities refrained from in order to cover the missing income due to lower real incomes, said Pronin. “I did not like that Siluanov said that would have to tighten their belts. We must do everything so that even at the expense of internal factors are not citizens tighten their belts “, – she said. What not to do in the current environment – so it raise taxes, notes Suslin.

The price of economic warfare

$ 170 billion

Experts HSE, comparing data from two developed CB scenarios of economic development for the next three years (one of them provides for the lifting of sanctions in the third quarter of 2015, the other – keeping them up to 2017), concluded that the Central Bank estimates the total cost of sanctions for the Russian economy $ 170 billion over three years (3% of total GDP over this period).

$ 200 billion

In the spring of this year, the head of the Committee of Civil Initiatives Alexei Kudrin said in an interview with REN TV Russia’s losses compared with the costs of sanctions to the Olympics Sochi. According to his estimates, because of their country in the next two or three years will lose about $ 200 billion. In August, when it became aware of the application of “Rosneft” in the allocation of funds from the National Welfare Fund, he confirmed this assessment. “Request” Rosneft “government 1.5 trillion rubles. confirms my forecast losses of Russia from sanctions.
