Deputy Head of the Federal Antimonopoly Service of Russia Anatoly Golomolzin told RIA Novosti that the department believes that the difference in prices for cellular communications in Russia should disappear before the end of this year. In August 2017, the FAS ordered the operators of the Big Four to cancel intranet roaming in Russia before December 15, and even earlier against the telecoms operators, the agency initiated a case. "Companies are ready to comply with our warning. They are "on the march". Whether they can or not depends on them, "added Golomolzin. Currently, there are several types of roaming in the country: national, intranet and roaming in the Crimea.
Intranet calls roaming within the network of a particular operator, the prices in it differ by region. National roaming is included when a network of some telecommunications operator is absent in one or another region of Russia. Communications and Communications Minister Nikolai Nikiforov earlier said that the Ministry of Communications and the Federal Antimonopoly Service will by the end of 2017 offer solutions that will allow to remove intranet roaming from the tariffs of the Big Four as early as 2018.
