Salaries of Omsk governors equated to those of Russian government vice-premiers
Starting from January 2026, Vladimir Putin's latest move has got everyone buzzing! The decree, published on the state-legal information portal on April 1st, 2025, is all about giving a major boost to the salaries of Russia's governors, including those in Omsk Oblast. As it stands, the bigwigs like deputy prime ministers rake in a hefty monthly salary averaging around 1.2-1.3 million rubles[1][2]. Meanwhile, our humble governors weren't exactly rolling in dough, with their monthly paychecks sitting somewhere between 150,000 to 200,000 rubles[1].
But put your wallets away for now, folks! This adjustment is set to change that dramatically, with estimates suggesting that governors' salaries could skyrocket anywhere between five to six times, and some even think it could be a whopping ten times more[1][2]! Now, that's quite the pay raise, wouldn't you agree? This move is part of a broader strategy to equalize the compensation for high-ranking federal subjects, bringing the governors more in line with other high-level officials like the deputy prime ministers.
So, keep your fingers crossed come 2026, and stay tuned for more updates in this ever-evolving tale of Russia's political landscape!
