In March 2022, goods and services in the consumer sector rose in price by an average of 1.5%, the State Statistics Committee said.
The annual growth rate of the consumer price index reached 10.5%.
In the previous month, prices for food products increased by an average of 2.5%, non-food products – by 1.1% and paid services to the population – by 0.4%.
The major reason for the sharp growth in the inflation rate is the war in Ukraine.
