Moscow authorities decided to block 10% of budget expenditures for 2015, said Mayor Sergei Sobyanin during an extended meeting of the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation.
"We have to make a decision to block about 10% of budget expenditures in the budget that has been adopted already. We have not made amendments to the budget, but still blocked expenditures and will see what will happen in the future with the economy," - said Sobyanin.
He stressed that the most negative economic forecasts do not come true. "We see a more positive trend," - he explained.
