| Description | Bribes to government officials who oversee the awarding of state contracts in Russia are equivalent to roughly one third of the country’s entire national budget revenue, researchers have said.
Payments by Russian companies to public procurement officials total about £67 billion every year, RBC media said, citing research by the Higher School of Economics in Moscow. The sum is higher than Russia’s combined annual spending on education or healthcare. |
