Communications tariffs will not rise higher than inflation, - RBC

"Tariffs will not rise higher than CPI than inflation. This is fixed in our joint decision with the Federal Antimonopoly Service," said Shadaev, the head of the Ministry of Information.

The operators index the tariffs in order to invest money into development of the networks, said Shadaev. Now, it is important for them to close the issue with the coverage of LTE generation network in the whole of Russia until 2024, and then to begin active work on the implementation of 5G.
