Medvedev said that the country's leadership has taken some measures to support the domestic automotive industry. In particular, two programmes to stimulate growth in demand for cars were launched. According to one of them regions will receive subsidies from the federal budget for the needs of housing and utilities sector to purchase buses and equipment that use natural gas. The second programme aimed at promoting sales will allow buyers to get a discount in case they scrap or trade in their old cars.
