The draft federal budget for 2017-2019 years has been prepared with an attention paid to preservation of the anti-Russian sanctions. According to it, the government is based on a conservative estimate of the economic situation.
“In particular, we base on a sufficiently low oil prices trajectory of Urals oil within $ 40 per barrel during the three years and the possible preservation of the sanctions until the end of the forecast period” – Medvedev said. Thus, the budget includes an additional safety margin which should ensure a balanced budgetary system for three years, as the Prime Minister stressed.
