Medvedev: Draft budget will be ready after a week

‘‘Despite the fact that the preparation of the draft budget in the current economic situation is not an easy task, but the draft budget will be completed in a week,’’ said Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev, speaking at a meeting with businessmen, organized in the framework of the international investment forum in Sochi.

"The economic situation in the country has changed quite dramatically over the past year. It is clear that $ 50 a barrel is worse than $ 110 a barrel. But the situation can bring positive and negative results, including the devaluation effect,’’ Interfax cites him.
