ЧТО НОВОГО? /WHAT’S NEW?/Putin predicts rise in official unemployment numbers – RBC, 04.12.2008, Moscow 16:01:19The number of officially unemployed in Russia may top 2 million people, Russia's Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said in his question-and-answer session broadcast live on national TV channels and radio stations. He revealed the current official figure as 1.7 million jobless people. "I still believe that we will not face any massive unemployment, but certainly the number of people temporarily out of work is set to rise," Putin stated. "The government will extend extra money to employment services, from RUB 10bn to RUB 50bn (approx. from USD 358.17m to USD 1.79bn), to enable them to quickly respond to changes." For instance, the government is looking to the services to be able to prepare people to the economic upturn, help them find jobs in neighboring regions, and inspire large companies to launch projects in troubled areas. In an earlier statement on unemployment, Putin announced that Russia had enough resources for this task. In addition, unemployment allowances have already been raised. According to the Federal State Statistics Service (Rosstat), in late October
unemployment figures reached 4.6 million people.
