Resolution of July 24, 2025 No. 1091

Document

Resolution of July 24, 2025 No. 1091

The government is suspending the floating rates of export duties on sunflower oil and sunflower meal. This will increase the volume of shipments to foreign markets and support sunflower producers and processors. This decision was made at the suggestion of the Oil and Fat Union. It is especially relevant in anticipation of autumn field work.

Floating rates of export customs duties on sunflower oil and meal were established by the Government from 2021 and 2022, respectively, in order to protect the domestic market from unjustified price increases. Thus, it was possible to stimulate the economic interest of producers in maintaining product supplies to the domestic market.

Currently, the domestic market is fully supplied with sunflower oil. Therefore, the suspension will not affect the availability of sunflower oil for Russians.

In June 2025, the export duty rate on sunflower oil was 7119.8 rubles per ton. In July – 4739.3 rubles per ton.

In June 2025, the export duty rate on sunflower meal was 1,244.1 rubles per ton. In July 2025 – 1,054.4 rubles per ton.

After the adoption of the Government Resolution, the rates were reset to zero. This measure will be in effect until August 31, 2025 inclusive.

The signed document introduces changes toGovernment Resolution of April 6, 2021 No. 546.

BEIJING, July 25 (Xinhua) — China's independently developed civil search and rescue aircraft MA60 successfully completed its maiden flight, officially starting the flight test and validation stage, according to Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC), a leading Chinese aircraft maker.

AVIC announced on Thursday that the aircraft successfully completed its daytime testing tasks during the one-hour and 20-minute test flight and landed safely at the airport in Xi'an, capital of northwest China's Shaanxi Province.

The new aircraft belongs to the domestically produced Xinzhou family of multi-role aircraft.

According to AVIC experts, problems such as slow response times and limited coverage of the search system have long hampered the country's ability to conduct maritime search and rescue operations over vast distances and in challenging conditions.

Designed for search and rescue, terrain reconnaissance and personnel transportation, the Xinzhou-60 is designed to cover a wide range of application scenarios. It can perform search and rescue missions at sea, in high-altitude areas and in areas affected by natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods.

The specialized aircraft is expected to greatly enhance China's maritime search and rescue capabilities, significantly improving response speed and coverage area, AVIC said.

The Xinzhou-60 aircraft development project was officially launched in December 2021. The production and delivery of major components was completed in December 2024, followed by final assembly and delivery work in May 2025. -0-

CAIRO, July 25 (Xinhua) — About 166 trucks carrying humanitarian aid entered the Gaza Strip on the night from Wednesday to Thursday, Egyptian Al-Qahira Al-Ikhbariya TV reported, citing an anonymous source in the security forces.

According to him, trucks carrying humanitarian aid entered the besieged enclave through the Zikim and Kerem Shalom /Kerem Abu Salem/ border crossings.

The aid shipment included flour, food and medicine, the source said. “Egypt has stepped up its efforts with all international parties to deliver more aid to the Gaza Strip during this period,” he added.

The humanitarian situation in the Palestinian enclave continues to deteriorate, with Israel cutting off supplies and food to Gaza after the first phase of the ceasefire agreement with Hamas expired in January.

The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) warned on Wednesday that hunger in the sector is at its worst ever, with aid workers and those they help exhausted, aid agencies say.

A new round of indirect talks between Hamas and Israel resumed earlier this month in the Qatari capital Doha amid international efforts to end the conflict and resume humanitarian aid deliveries.

Since October 2023, the Israeli military campaign has killed more than 59,210 Palestinians in the enclave and injured more than 143,040, according to Gaza's medical authorities. –0–
