One holiday, but two dates. Why do Catholics and Orthodox celebrate Christmas on different days
The Nativity of Christ This holiday is one of the main spiritual holidays for Christians. It was installed in honor of the birth of Jesus Christ, hence the name of the celebration. According to the biblical teaching, the Virgin Mary came with her husband Joseph to Bethlehem after the decree of King Herod to conduct a census. The couple was sheltered by shepherds, and at night the Virgin Mary gave birth to Jesus. The shepherds were the first to bow to him, to whom the angels announced the birth of Christ. Then came the magi, who followed the light of the star, who presented gold, frankincense and myrrh as a gift. Since everything happened at night, it is customary to start celebrating Christmas the night before – on Christmas Eve. On this day, believers set the table and start eating only after the first star appears in the sky.
New indexation: Who will have pensions and by how much in 2022
In the outgoing year, despite the fact that the State Duma has already adopted the federal budget for 2022, there is still no clear understanding of who and by how much pensions will be increased. Formally, for today, the budget provides that The Pension Fund of Russia (PFR) should receive funds sufficient to increase old-age insurance pensions by 5.9% from January 1, 2022, and social pensions (they are usually indexed in April) – by 7.7%. However, the President of the Russian Federation instructed the government to consider increasing these percentages declared in the budget, since they are lower than official inflation, which is unacceptable, since by law the indexation of pensions should be higher than inflation. Exactly the same thing was repeated by President Putin during his press conference on December 23, 2021. Putin answered the question about the indexation of pensions above inflation The official response to the president’s words has
