According to the newspaper, Russians need to prepare for the fact that goods from this segment will rise in price by about 15 percent due to the new ban on the export of all types of scrap and waste containing precious metals.

As Izvestia writes, electronics and household appliances in 2021 have already risen in price by 10-15 percent. This figure could increase by another 13 percent once the law comes into force in 2022. Experts also said that there are other reasons for the increase in prices: for example, problems with container transportation and communication with other countries due to the pandemic.

According to experts, power tools will rise in price by 11 percent in 2022, electronics – by 9 percent, and small household appliances – by 13-15 percent.
