\u041f\u0435\u0301\u043d\u0441\u0438\u044f refers to the pension received by a retired person. \u041f\u0435\u043d\u0441\u0438\u043e\u0301\u043d\u043d\u044b\u0439 \u0432\u043e\u0301\u0437\u0440\u0430\u0441\u0442 is the retirement age. Since the 1930s, the retirement age in the USSR, and then in Russia, has been 55 for women and 60 for men.<\/p>\n

The new proposal seeks to gradually raise the retirement age (\u043f\u043e\u0432\u044b\u0301\u0441\u0438\u0442\u044c \u043f\u0435\u043d\u0441\u0438\u043e\u0301\u043d\u043d\u044b\u0439 \u0432\u043e\u0301\u0437\u0440\u0430\u0441\u0442) to 65 years for men and 63 years for women. Another word for “to raise” is \u043f\u043e\u0434\u043d\u044f\u0301\u0442\u044c. The noun phrase to talk about raising the retirement age is \u043f\u043e\u0432\u044b\u0448\u0435\u0301\u043d\u0438\u0435 \u043f\u0435\u043d\u0441\u0438\u043e\u0301\u043d\u043d\u043e\u0433\u043e \u0432\u043e\u0301\u0437\u0440\u0430\u0441\u0442\u0430.<\/p>\n

One of the reasons given to justify raising the retirement age is that the number of working-age adults has gone down in relation to the number of retired people (\u043f\u0435\u043d\u0441\u0438\u043e\u043d\u0435\u0301\u0440\u044b). As a result, there are fewer working people to support each retiree by paying into the retirement fund.<\/p>\n

While the government says that raising the retirement age will bring Russia in line with other countries, critics point out that life expectancy (\u043f\u0440\u043e\u0434\u043e\u043b\u0436\u0438\u0301\u0442\u0435\u043b\u044c\u043d\u043e\u0441\u0442\u044c \u0436\u0438\u0301\u0437\u043d\u0438) is lower than in most of these countries.<\/p>\n
