Order No. 3702-r of December 11, 2025

Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin signed an order approving the long-term budget forecast—until 2042—and extending it for another six-year period.

In preparing the document, the objectives of achieving the national development goals approved by the President, the need to fulfill social obligations to citizens, and the implementation of national projects and state programs were taken into account.

The budget forecast was prepared based on two long-term socio-economic development forecast options prepared by the Ministry of Economic Development: the baseline and the conservative ones.

The baseline budget forecast scenario assumes steady growth of federal budget revenues in real terms, averaging 2.1% per year, beginning in 2026. Federal budget expenditures are expected to more than double their 2019 levels in real terms by 2042.

The long-term budget forecast contains the characteristics and forecast of federal budget indicators and reflects the dynamics of its key parameters until 2042, including the funding parameters for national projects and state programs beyond the planning period.

Budget forecast parameters are taken into account when forming the budget for the next financial year and planning period, as well as in long-term planning. The budget forecast is developed every six years for 12 or more years based on a long-term forecast for Russia's socioeconomic development.

The final stage of the international "Robot Battle" championship took place in Moscow. Deputy Prime Minister and Chief of the Government Staff Dmitry Grigorenko attended the opening ceremony. Thirty-two teams from Russia, India, China, Tunisia, Brazil, and Iran advanced to the finals. "Robot Battle" has been held annually since 2023 with the support of the Russian government.

The goal of the "Battle of Robots" championship is to popularize engineering professions in Russia, support modern digital technologies, and train future specialists in this field and develop their practical skills.

"The Robot Battle is a unique platform where engineers and programmers can showcase not only their skills but also their creativity. Here, they have the opportunity to put their theoretical knowledge into practice and bring their innovative ideas to life. Such events help develop engaged professionals and give them the opportunity to realize their talents at such a young age. The government actively supports young people's interest in robotics and digital technologies, because it is their hands that will shape the future digital economy and Russian technologies," said Dmitry Grigorenko.

The Deputy Prime Minister also noted that the "Battle of Robots" is growing in scale each year, and its geographic reach is expanding, reflecting growing interest in robotics among young people. More than 450 people participated in the third season of the championship: 112 teams from eight countries (Russia, Belarus, India, Iran, Kazakhstan, Tunisia, China, and Brazil). This is almost double the number of participants in the first season in 2023 (267).

The event attracts not only the participants who create robots for the competition but also spectators. Over the past three years, live broadcasts of the "Robot Battle" have been watched by over 62 million people, and over 56,000 people have attended the championship stages in person (excluding the results of the final stage of the 2025 season).

The "Robot Battle" is open to schoolchildren and students, as well as private hobbyists and company representatives. The competition is held in two categories: "Robot Battle" (up to 110 kg) – for participants of all ages; and "Mini-Robot Battle" (up to 1.5 kg) – for participants aged 10–17.

A key feature of the championship is its active engagement with IT companies. The most promising participants of the "Battle of the Robots" are sent to robotics internships: in 2025, 10 internship agreements have already been signed with leading Russian IT companies. Thus, the championship serves as a bridge between young professionals and the industry: participants not only have the opportunity to demonstrate their engineering skills but also the chance to transition to real-world professional practice and meet future employers. Thirty participants have already passed the preliminary selection and are ready for internships, and two more have received offers and have begun their internships.

The final stage of the 2025 Robot Battle Championship was held under the coordination of the Russian Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media and with the support of the Moscow government.

In Kaliningrad, Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova chaired a meeting of the Government Commission on the Socioeconomic Development of the Kaliningrad Region, visited the new outpatient clinic of City Hospital No. 2, participated in the VDvizhenie youth award ceremony, and the opening of the new regional TASS center.

Opening the meeting of the Government Commission on the Socioeconomic Development of the Kaliningrad Region, Tatyana Golikova noted the gradual recovery of economic growth in the country's westernmost region and the contribution of SEZ residents to its development.

"A special economic zone operates throughout the Kaliningrad region. Currently, there are over 300 residents in the SEZ. They have invested over 320 billion rubles in a wide range of industries: from manufacturing, agriculture, and auto assembly to fisheries, information technology, and tourism, and have created over 31,000 new jobs," the Deputy Prime Minister noted.

Tatyana Golikova recalled that the Kaliningrad Region retains its status as a geostrategic territory in Russia's new Spatial Development Strategy, which entails prioritizing support for the region through federal initiatives. One of the key instruments of this support is the state program "Socioeconomic Development of the Kaliningrad Region." By presidential decision, an additional 5.7 billion rubles will be allocated from the federal budget for the program's activities beginning in 2026.

Tatyana Golikova paid special attention to healthcare issues.

"We are increasing our support for healthcare. This is a priority for the region's development, given its location," stated Tatyana Golikova. According to her, 37.8 billion rubles were allocated to healthcare in the Kaliningrad Region in 2025, a 15.6% increase from 2024. The cost of the regional state guarantees program for the basic compulsory medical insurance program in the region increased by 18.1% compared to last year.

"The opening of modern medical facilities is undoubtedly contributing to the development of the region's healthcare system. The oncology center, which opened last year, has noticeably gained momentum. Specialized patients are receiving the necessary medical care," said Tatyana Golikova. "Today, we visited the new outpatient clinic of City Hospital No. 2 in Kaliningrad, which will reopen next month after a major renovation. This will improve the accessibility and quality of medical care for more than 32,000 residents. I hope the regional leadership will ensure all the necessary conditions for this."

Reporting on the current situation in the region, Governor Alexey Besprozvannykh confirmed the growth of key economic indicators.

"Based on the ten-month results of this year, key sectors of the Kaliningrad Region's economy are showing growth, including industrial production, which is up 8.5%. This suggests a recovery from the 2022–2023 downturn. Despite challenging weather conditions, agricultural production remained at last year's level. By the end of the year, we expect gross regional product growth of at least 2.4%. And next year, taking into account the impact of major industrial projects, we forecast GRP growth in comparable prices of 6%," said Alexey Besprozvannykh.

Economic growth, he said, allows for strengthening budget revenues while fully fulfilling social obligations. In 2025, social security spending will increase by almost a third (31.6%), and infrastructure investment by 17.8%.

According to Alexey Besprozvannykh, presidential national projects are an important tool for regional development.

"We are grateful to the Government of the Russian Federation for its ongoing attention to the region and its support – federal funding for national projects implemented in the region in 2025 totaled 16.3 billion rubles. An additional 14 billion rubles were financed from the federal budget for the state program 'Socio-Economic Development of the Kaliningrad Region,'" the regional governor said.

Members of the government commission discussed the implementation of the state program for the socio-economic development of the Kaliningrad region, major investment projects, and proposals to improve the competitiveness of the Kaliningrad SEZ.

As part of her working visit, Tatyana Golikova also took part in the ceremonial opening of the TASS Kaliningrad regional information center.

"This is a special western territory for Russia, located between two NATO countries and simultaneously demonstrating, despite any external sanctions, both Russia's development and the development of the Kaliningrad region. And of course, here and in these conditions, objective, up-to-date information is especially important, which we have always traditionally received from TASS. This is not just a news agency; it is an agency that defends the country's sovereignty," said Tatyana Golikova. She added that TASS is the most cited agency abroad, and its achievements were recognized last year with the Order "For Valiant Labor." The TASS Kaliningrad Regional Information Center, along with centers in St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, Novosibirsk, Pyatigorsk, Vladivostok, and Rostov-on-Don, became the agency's seventh representative office in Russia.

At the end of the day, Tatyana Golikova and Alexey Besprozvannykh took part in the awards ceremony for the annual youth public recognition award "VDvizhenie."

"The VDvizhenii Prize reflects an important trend: young people are increasingly participating in the country's social, cultural, and volunteer life. Today, it's especially important to create conditions in which young people can demonstrate leadership, implement socially significant initiatives, and feel a sense of belonging in Russia's development. The Kaliningrad Region exemplifies how young people can be a true driving force for change: your energy, creativity, and drive for development inspire not only your peers but also the entire community. You prove that even in unique geographical and historical conditions, it's possible to create projects that change lives for the better and become a model for the entire country," the Deputy Prime Minister emphasized.

The award winners – researchers, creators, volunteers, leaders, and mentors – were selected in 11 nominations (Grant Project of the Year, Achievement of the Year, First of the Year, Leader of the Year, Mentor of the Year, Young Patriot of the Year, Event of the Year, Project of the Year, Organization of the Year, Good of the Year, and Youth Space of the Year).

The government commission continues to coordinate efforts to eliminate the consequences of the emergency in the Kerch Strait.

Deputy Prime Minister Vitaly Savelyev told reporters that since the sinking of the Volgoneft-212 and Volgoneft-239 tankers on December 15, 2024, more than 185,000 tons of contaminated sand and soil have been collected for disposal and sale in Krasnodar Krai, the Republic of Crimea, and Sevastopol, 160,000 tons of which have already been disposed of.

According to estimates by the Russian Academy of Sciences, the Ministry of Natural Resources, and relevant government agencies, over 90% of the spilled fuel oil has been collected.

In March, fuel oil was pumped out of the grounded stern of the Volgoneft-239 tanker and disposed of. In October and November, the bulk of the fuel oil was removed from the tanker's bow.

To contain the fuel oil spill in the sunken tankers, the Government Commission decided to install three cofferdams. The first has already been installed, and work on the second and third is ongoing. After the fuel oil is removed, the cofferdams and the remaining parts of the ships are scheduled for complete decommissioning in 2026.

The Ministry of Education and Science continues to develop options for beach cleanup in Anapa and the Temryuk district.

Mikhail Mishustin and heads of delegations participated in the International Conference on Cooperation in Science and Technology. Dmitry Chernyshenko delivered a speech.

D. Chernyshenko: Esteemed heads of government and colleagues, we have gathered at the International Conference on Cooperation in Science and Technology. You have just walked through an impressive exhibition showcasing the history of Russian and international nuclear energy, with your countries' direct involvement, and the future of the industry.

Context

In our country, nine national technological leadership projects have been launched at the direction of the President. And just recently, as you know, the Strategy for Scientific and Technological Development of the Commonwealth of Independent States until 2035 was adopted. One of the goals of this strategy is to strengthen our shared sovereignty and ensure sustainable socioeconomic development. And one of the key objectives outlined in the strategy is the formation of a common scientific and technological space for the CIS.

We are confident in the prospects of implementing joint applied research projects with our friends and creating technology consortia. To achieve this, it's important for us to share science with each other and support the exchange of specialists and young scientists. Incidentally, they communicate very well, very well. You'll see this now. We have many common priorities. Issues of efficient energy, clean water, ecology, climate, food security—all of these things connect us.

The Congress of Young Scientists recently concluded at the Sirius Federal University, bringing together over 9,000 young scientists from over 100 countries.

Mikhail Mishustin and the heads of delegations participating in the Eurasian Intergovernmental Council meeting visited the Atom Museum in Moscow.

The Atom Museum is a one-of-a-kind museum dedicated to nuclear technologies of the past, present, and future, not only in Russia but worldwide. Just recently, in early November, it celebrated its second anniversary (it opened in November 2023).

The museum building is a showcase of architectural innovation. It blends seamlessly into the historic VDNKh complex. It has seven floors, three of which extend below ground level and are built into the bed of the underground Kamenka River. The building's architectural design is unusual: the three underground floors convey the depth of atomic processes, while the four aboveground floors, with their extensive glazing, create a sense of open space. The museum's total area is 25,000 square meters. The extended, floating roof, combined with the expansive glass facades, creates a sense of unity with the surrounding space.

Atom is one of the capital's most visited attractions. Over the past two years, it has welcomed over 3.5 million visitors from 80 countries. The museum's seven floors offer a fascinating journey through the history of the Soviet atomic project and the latest advances in science and the nuclear industry. The museum features interactive exhibitions, classes in a fully equipped laboratory, immersive tours, quests, and science experiments for the whole family.

The museum's foyer features an art object representing a model of a uranium atom—Earth's main energy source. The museum's narrative is built from the bottom up. The ground floor is dedicated to the past—the heroic creation of the USSR's nuclear shield. The floor above is dedicated to dreams, introducing visitors to the most unusual, and sometimes fantastical, projects that emerged when the peaceful use of nuclear energy began. And the first floor presents contemporary developments in the nuclear industry.

Deputy Prime Minister and Chief of the Government Staff Dmytro Grigorenko instructed the Ministry of Digital Development, Communications, and Mass Media and the Analytical Center under the Government to develop proposals for the creation of a digital platform for the development of data centers. It will integrate a set of services to support the entire data center lifecycle, from construction to commissioning. The platform will help simplify and accelerate the data center creation process and aggregate information on the computing capacity available in the country.

The platform is proposed to include services for selecting land plots and ordering inspections (for example, to check for encumbrances); information on available benefits, the availability of communication lines, the availability of electrical power, and other infrastructure. Furthermore, the creation of a marketplace for data center design and maintenance equipment and services for businesses is being discussed.

The creation of a unified digital platform will enable a transition from the construction of isolated, isolated data centers to the systematic development of a network by bringing together all stakeholders, from businesses to the government, on a single platform. Furthermore, the platform will serve as a single point of information collection on existing data centers, rental offers, needs for additional capacity, and the availability of infrastructure for their construction.

This new approach will accelerate the process of obtaining the necessary data for data center construction, make the process transparent, and reduce construction and commissioning time.

"One of our priorities is the implementation of artificial intelligence. However, this technology requires infrastructure and a sufficient number of data centers. The demand for computing power is rapidly growing. Our goal is to simplify and accelerate the creation of data centers. To this end, we are exploring the creation of a digital platform – a single platform where businesses can obtain accurate information about available sites, the availability of nearby infrastructure, and even order ready-made construction solutions and equipment. For businesses, this means convenient services that simplify the data center construction process. For the government, this means the opportunity to assess the data center market situation and determine the real need for new capacity," noted Deputy Prime Minister and Chief of the Government Staff Dmitry Grigorenko.

According to the instruction, the Ministry of Digital Development and Communications and the Analytical Center under the Government must develop and submit proposals by March 2026. These proposals will be discussed with businesses to develop the most effective platform structure and identify the most in-demand services.

Over 50 life events have been launched on the government services portal. They help people comprehensively address a variety of issues, from university admissions to retirement. Now, you can prepare for pregnancy and complete your baby's first documents using the "Planning and Birth of a Child" life event. The implementation and development of these life events is part of the federal project "A State for People," overseen by Deputy Prime Minister and Chief of the Government Staff Dmitry Grigorenko.

"Life-situations services on Gosuslugi help citizens resolve their issues more easily and quickly. Comprehensive services have freed people from the need to gather excessive amounts of documents and navigate the intricacies of government departments. Citizens and businesses already have access to services such as 'Large Families,' 'University Admissions,' 'Retirement,' 'Starting an IT Company,' and many others. And now a new life-situation service—'Planning and Having a Child'—has been launched on the Gosuslugi portal," said Dmitry Grigorenko.

The "Planning and Having a Child" life situation helps you obtain a birth certificate and register your child at your place of residence, as well as receive government support measures available to pregnant women and families with children.

Now, citizens planning to have children and parents of infants can obtain all the necessary information, complete paperwork, and take advantage of government support measures in one convenient digital space.

This situation allows you to complete and submit an application for a child's birth certificate and residence registration in just two clicks. The newborn's SNILS and compulsory medical insurance policy number will be assigned automatically.

A digital navigator on the life situation page helps you learn about available support measures. You can also apply for benefits and subsidies without leaving the government services portal.

Life-situational services represent a new stage in the development of the public service delivery system. One such service combines, on average, approximately 17 related public services and helps users access them comprehensively, in a single-window environment. For example, "House Construction," "Online Fraud Protection," "Tax Deduction," and so on.

The catalog of life situations on the government services portal includes over 50 federal life situations. By the end of 2025, this number will increase to 70.

First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov chaired the first meeting of the Government Commission on Industry.

The event was attended by commission members: Anton Alikhanov, Minister of Industry and Trade; Oksana Lut, Minister of Agriculture; Mikhail Murashko, Ministry of Health; Andrey Nikitin, Ministry of Transport; Maxim Reshetnikov, Ministry of Economic Development; Maksut Shadayev, Ministry of Digital Development; and Vladimir Gutenyov, Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Industry and Trade. The commission was created to ensure coordinated efforts among federal ministries to achieve technological leadership.

"The new collegial body will retain some of the functions of the Government Commission on Import Substitution. Overall, it has completed the first wave of localization of the most in-demand industrial products. Since 2015, more than 2,000 significant projects have been implemented. And now, in addition to launching new finished products, companies are mastering the mass production of raw materials, components, and components. They are also focusing on the development and implementation of critical technologies," said Denis Manturov.

In this area, the key areas of work are defined by the federal law "On Technological Policy." One of the commission's priorities is to align technological policy with strategic approaches to industrial development. As the First Deputy Prime Minister emphasized, all industrial projects must incorporate cutting-edge innovations, meet the high demands of consumer sectors, and thereby contribute to achieving technological leadership.

"To consolidate systemic support mechanisms around this comprehensive national development goal, the commission must select priority investment projects. For each project, it must formulate a specific need for engineering products, connect customers with potential contractors. And in certain cases, where we haven't yet developed the necessary expertise, it must coordinate the purchase of foreign-made products," stated Denis Manturov.

Participants discussed the commission's structure, main goals, and objectives. The First Deputy Prime Minister emphasized that, despite the strategic nature of the new platform's issues, it is essential to continue working on current tasks and to focus on identifying risks in the implementation of national technological leadership projects.

"In implementing national technological leadership projects, we will focus primarily on intersectoral and interdepartmental coordination and removing barriers to their implementation. At the same time, we will collaborate with our colleagues to determine the contribution of industries and individual companies to achieving these objectives," noted Anton Alikhanov.

The heating season has begun throughout Russia, and its smooth running remains a key priority, Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin announced.

"The comfort of people's daily lives and the stable operation of all services and infrastructure in communities depend on the reliable operation of housing and utilities. This is especially acute during the heating season. Following a regional headquarters meeting, I instructed governors to develop additional measures to ensure a smooth autumn-winter period. Overall, the start of the season has shown positive trends: the number of accidents has decreased by 19.8% compared to the same period last year. But we can't relax. Among other things, the regions need to develop measures to increase the number of emergency response teams and stockpiles for prompt restoration work," said Marat Khusnullin.

He noted that the stable operation of heating systems directly depends on the timely upgrade of public utilities. To this end, the federal project "Modernization of Public Utilities Infrastructure" is being implemented as part of the "Infrastructure for Life" national project.

"Thanks to it, the construction, reconstruction, and major repairs of approximately 300 heat, water, and wastewater facilities have been completed since the beginning of 2025. The quality of public services has improved for nearly 1 million residents of the country. At the same time, of course, many challenges remain in the housing and utilities sector, primarily related to the high level of deterioration of infrastructure. We will continue to consistently address them within the framework of the national project," the Deputy Prime Minister added.

The primary long-term planning tool has become comprehensive plans for the modernization of public utility infrastructure, compiled by regions in the automated information system of the Territorial Development Fund. These comprehensive plans include over 46,000 measures for the construction, reconstruction, and modernization of 18,000 housing and utilities facilities and 141,000 kilometers of networks. Priority is given to facilities with high levels of deterioration and accident rates.
