To replenish the losses: in the Russian Federation for the year contractors increased payments 5 times - Roszmi

The average remuneration for Russian contractors in Ukraine has increased more than five, reaching 1. 3 million rubles, which is equivalent to one and a half years of average average salary. In 2024, the Russian regions dramatically increased payments for concluding contracts with the Ministry of Defense, seeking to attract more willing to fight in Ukraine. The average regional remuneration has increased to 897 thousand rubles, which is more than five times higher than last year.

About it writes Russian media "Important History". Together with a federal payment of 400 thousand rubles, contractors now receive an average of 1. 3 million rubles (about 508 thousand hryvnias) - the equivalent of a year and a half of the average salary in the country, Russian journalists write. In a number of regions, payments have reached record values. Thus, the Belgorod and Nizhny Novorod region offered up to 3 million rubles, including the federal part, and in Moscow and St.

Petersburg, the amounts were 2. 3 and 2. 1 million respectively. Even in North Ossetia, where the payments are traditionally minimal, now guarantee 800 thousand rubles. According to the Russian media, some subjects have set absolute records in terms of increasing payments. Thus, in the Sverdlovsk region, the amount increased 75 times - from 20 thousand rubles to the beginning of the year to 1. 5 million rubles before its completion.

In the Ivanovo region, payments increased 32 times, and in Belgorod - 26 times. Against the background of such payments, regions spend an average of 13% of their budgets for social needs for contracting programs. This made it possible to accelerate the dial pace six times compared to last year. "The governor of one of the regions - the Ulyanovsky region - directly acknowledged that it was necessary to fill the loss by the end of the year," Roszmi writes.
