Yevkurov claims that Ingushetia will ensure food security of the Russian Federation

The head of Ingushetia, Yunus-bek Yevkurov, said that Ingushetia, as a part of Russia, is to help the country to avoid possible food problems. Yevkurov stressed that all the statements of President Vladimir Putin on the key issues that he was asked at a press conference sounded optimistic. "The President believes in a positive outlook for the economic situation in the country, which has been complicated recently due to international sanctions, and the rapid growth of the exchange rate. The plans of the Russian government are to prevent threats to food security. Ingushetia, as a part of Russia, should contribute to this," Yevkurov said.

The subject of food in the region, according to the head of Ingushetia, is under constant control of the authorities. In Ingushetia there is a program that aims to support and develop the republic’s own agricultural production.
