Putin: Unemployment Remains One of Key Problems in Russia

Unemployment remains one of the main Russian problems, President Vladimir Putin said on Monday at the meeting with Governor of the Rostov Region Vasily Golubev, TASS reported.

“Clearly this [the unemployment rate] is one of key problems in the country; this is absolutely obvious,” the head of state said.

Putin recommended Golubev “paying attention to the labor market, although Rostov is a developed region in the industrial aspect and as regards opportunities for agriculture.”
