俄政府开网店做生意 卖高官特供美味

The Russian government is to give the public the chance to sample a range of delicacies¹ previously² reserved for senior officials. 

 

俄罗斯政府将让公众有机会品尝到原先只有高官才能吃到的美味。

 

Presidential press secretary Elena Krylova says an online shop selling dairy products under the brand name "Kremlin Quality" will open in the new year. She tells Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper that "milk, buttermilk, yoghurt and possibly cheese" made specially³ for the presidential administration, MPs and their staff will be "on offer to everyone, not just to officials". 

 

Senior Russian civil servants still enjoy access to food produced exclusively for them in what amounts to a hangover from Soviet⁴ times, when special farms allowed the Communist leaders to avoid the generally poor-quality food on offer to the public. 

 

Ms Krylova tells Govorit Moskva radio that the prices will be "no higher than in the supermarkets", as the authorities want to make sure the goods are "within the reach of all sections of the public". 

 

A representative of the Kremlin Quality website told Vedomosti business daily that officials will still have some advantages, as they can pick up their online orders from their places of work, whereas everyone else must rely on home deliveries.
