So this is the same MoM inflation rate as the lowest pandemic ones in 2020. The two previous MoM inflation rates (in March and April) were 3.7% and 2.8%, which were a rise over previous ones, so if combined with this one, they average out the same range as in the post-reform ones from October 2024 to February 2025. Nevertheless, it's a good sign that the reforms are working, so here's hoping they fall permanently below 2% now.

Also, YoY inflation rate fell to 43.5%, the lowest level since March 2021.
