The cost of butter grew by 1%, and now, on average, it costs 160 hryvnia ($ 6) per kilogram.

Gasoline at Ukrainian gas stations began to go up since September 8.

The Antimonopoly Committee of Ukraine is already interested in a sharp rise in price of fuel.

Operators were suspected of collusion, the state department monitors the situation. Ukrainian experts put forward various versions explaining the rapid rise in prices. The head of the Association of Farmers and Landowners, Ivan Tomich, called the cost of exported grain.

Nobody will sell grain in the domestic market cheaper than in Europe. Even if the harvest in 2018 grows by one and a half times, the price increase will continue throughout the next year. Chairman of the Board of the National Bank Bogdan Danilishin believes that prices are rising because of the abolition of state regulation. The Ministry of Economy this year abolished the norm, according to which the margin for social groups of food products could not exceed 15%. In a monopolized economy, the abolition of price regulation led to a surge in inflation. In this regard, Danylyshyn demanded from the government to regain control over pricing. People's deputy Viktor Pynzenyk points out that with real growth of the economy by 2% from September 2016 to September 2017. wages for this period increased by 37.2%. "There is a serious disproportion that our economy can not fill. Therefore, a significant part of the "filling" of incomes was assumed by prices. At the end of ten months, inflation exceeds even the already adjusted annual forecast - 11.5%, "the parliamentarian wrote on his Facebook page. The National Bank says that by the end of the year inflation will be 12.2% (at the beginning of the year it was forecasted 9.1%), and by the end of next year, the price increase index will be 7.3% (previously predicted 6%). But experts say that such indicators are unrealistic.

"The authorities are trying to enter the new year with the so-called development budget.

But the indicators of the new budget show that there is no development in it. A fantastic GDP of 3%, although by the results of the third quarter of 2017. this indicator fell to 2.4%, a high inflation rate - up to 18%, a negative balance of foreign trade, limited resources of the NBU and most importantly - a public debt of almost 2 trillion hryvnia ($ 74.9 billion) - this is what "development" awaits Ukrainians in the next year, "- said the co-chairman of the" Our Nation "Alexander Mazurchak.
