Russia has launched the first mass production of key equipment for mobile communications and internet – domestically produced carrier-grade base stations. Yadro launched the production line at its full-cycle plant in Dubna. Deputy Prime Minister and Chief of the Government Staff Dmitry Grigorenko visited the facility.

The launch of domestic base station production is a key step toward the country's technological independence and ensuring citizens have stable access to digital services. Base stations connect subscribers' phones and tablets to the operator's backbone network, receiving signals from the device and transmitting them to the operator's network and back.

To equip Russia's telecommunications infrastructure with domestically produced equipment, the national "Data Economy" project requires the production and installation of 75,000 base stations by 2030. Yadro plans to supply 55,000 base stations to the three leading telecom operators by this date, thereby meeting 75% of market demand. By the end of 2025, 3,000 base stations will be supplied to mobile operators Beeline, MegaFon, and T2.

Yadro successfully launched serial production of base stations in a record-breaking three years. Previously, the fastest launch of modern telecommunications equipment was in China, where the entire development-to-production cycle took 10 years. The rapid launch of Russian production was facilitated, in part, by the forward contract mechanism offered by the government. This allowed the manufacturer to sign contracts with telecom operators in advance as early as 2022 to guarantee demand and align delivery plans with the production cycle.

The development and implementation of domestic base stations is also carried out in close cooperation with telecom operators, taking into account current market demands. Approximately 6,000 operator requirements were taken into account during equipment development. Specifically, domestic stations support modern global communications standards—LTE and 5G technology, which can be activated by telecom operators through a software update without replacing the hardware. The telecom equipment is adapted for a variety of operational scenarios, from large cities to remote areas.

"The launch of domestic base station production allows us to take a significant step toward technological independence. There are fewer than a dozen base station manufacturers worldwide. Previously, we had to import telecom equipment. This meant dependence on supplies and prices from foreign manufacturers. I would like to point out that the transition to domestic base stations was supported by the Russian telecom market. In fact, production itself was launched at the request of telecom operators and with their requirements in mind. Thanks to forward contracts, we were able not only to quickly establish serial production but also to meet the projected demand for domestic base stations," noted Dmitry Grigorenko.

Yadro's plant is the largest full-cycle manufacturing facility in Eastern Europe, supporting import substitution for all base station assembly technologies. Specifically, the facility manufactures and assembles printed circuit boards, manufactures and assembles electronic modules, configures and assembles telecommunications equipment, performs automated testing, and prepares it for shipment.

Marat Khusnullin: The first rental home under the presidential program has begun to be occupied in the Amur Region.

Residents have begun moving into the first building in the Blagoveshchensk District of the Amur Region, built under the "Affordable Rental Housing in the Far Eastern Federal District and the Arctic Zone of the Russian Federation" program. Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin announced this.

"With the country's pivot to the East and the current geopolitical situation, the development of the Far East has become a priority for the country. Creating modern and comfortable living conditions for people is a key focus of this work. This is facilitated, among other things, by the rental housing program, which is being implemented at the President's initiative. It addresses two important objectives: it improves people's living conditions and creates a reliable foundation for attracting and retaining professionals in the region. The new apartments are primarily intended for workers in the social sector—education, healthcare, science, culture, and sports. The first tenants in the Amur Region will be 92 families, who will receive the keys to ready-to-move-in apartments. In total, approximately 2,500 rental apartments are planned for the region as part of the presidential program," said Marat Khusnullin.

The total area of apartments in the new residential complex in the village of Chigiri near Blagoveshchensk is 5,400 square meters. The building was built with project financing from DOM.RF Bank.

"Thanks to the support of the Russian Government, a federal rental housing construction program is being implemented in the Amur Region. By 2027, 2,470 apartments will be available for subsidized rental in Blagoveshchensk, Belogorsk, the Oktyabrsky District, and the village of Chigiri. Housing under this program is being rented to teachers, doctors, police officers, young professionals, large families, and other categories of citizens. We hope that the program's implementation will help retain specialists in the region and attract new promising talent who will contribute to the region's further development," noted Amur Region Governor Vasily Orlov.

The "Affordable Rental Housing in the Far Eastern Federal District and the Arctic Zone of the Russian Federation" program was launched at the initiative of the President and is being implemented by DOM.RF in collaboration with the Ministry for the Development of the Russian Far East, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Construction, regions, and developers. The Russian government has allocated 87 billion rubles for this purpose. Thanks to special financing conditions and subsidies from the federal and regional budgets, the monthly rental rate is approximately one-quarter of the market average.

"The President's goal is to create at least 10,000 modern rental apartments in the Far East. This is a major step toward attracting new talent to the region and reducing the outflow of qualified specialists. As the program operator, DOM.RF has already financed the construction of approximately 11,700 apartments, with a total floor area of over 0.5 million square meters. With our participation, we plan to commission the majority of the buildings by 2026," said DOM.RF CEO Vitaly Mutko.

Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova chaired the final meeting of the Government Council on Guardianship in the Social Sphere for 2025. The agenda included the council's work this year and plans for 2026. The event was held at the Zurab Tsereteli Gallery of the Russian Academy of Arts. The meeting was attended by council members and experts, as well as representatives from the Ministry of Labor, the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Culture, and the Ministry of Education.

Ahead of the meeting, Tatyana Golikova visited the "Defenders of the Fatherland" exhibition, organized by the Russian Academy of Arts and the M.B. Grekov Studio of War Artists. The exhibition featured paintings, drawings, and sculptures from the studio's collections, artist collections, and private collections. The theme of the exhibition was portraits of people from different eras who participated in the defense of the Motherland.

"The year 2025 is drawing to a close. President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin has declared this year the Year of Defenders of the Fatherland and the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War. This honors the heroism of those who fought for our Motherland at various points in history. This very idea—connecting generations across years and eras, the image of the defender of the Fatherland from Ancient Rus' to today's heroes—participants in special military operations—is at the core of the project organized by the Grekov Studio of Military Artists and the Russian Academy of Arts. Artists are on the front lines alongside our young men. Thanks to them, we preserve the memory of historical events, soldiers and officers, priests, doctors and teachers, volunteers, ordinary citizens—everyone who helped and continues to help bring victory closer," noted Tatyana Golikova.

She added that among the council's members and experts, there are those who have been actively involved in this work from the very first day. The Deputy Prime Minister thanked Tatyana Samarskaya, head of Grekov's studio, and Vasily Tsereteli, president of the Russian Academy of Arts, for the idea and organization of the project, and Tatyana Kochemasova, vice president of the Russian Academy of Arts, for the tour.

Tatyana Golikova emphasized that, in the current climate, a large number of government decisions are focused on supporting participants in the special military operation: "Returning these young men to civilian life, restoring their health, obtaining an education, employing them, and reintegrating them into society is an absolute priority for our work, something President Vladimir Putin discussed in detail last week during his direct line. In November, the government approved a strategy for developing the rehabilitation industry. We will develop the production and maintenance of rehabilitation products, improve training for the industry, advance research and development, and expand international cooperation."

Summing up the year, Tatyana Golikova highlighted some significant achievements of the Government and the Council. Fifteen events (seven meetings, six roundtables) were held, and the results of the 3rd Asadov All-Russian Literary Competition for Visually Impaired Authors and the 1st "School Without Offense" competition were announced.

The first block of work is demography, support for families with children.

The Government has approved a Strategy for the implementation of family and demographic policies and support for large families.

Since this year, at the direction of the President, the principle of family centricity has been taken into account in all national projects.

"A simplified procedure for providing the unified benefit has been implemented. Nearly 5 million families, 9.6 million children, and more than 140,000 pregnant women have already seen the positive impact," said Tatyana Golikova. "Regional programs to increase the birth rate continue to be implemented. In 41 regions with low TFRs, more than 200,000 families have already benefited from the new support measures from the government-approved 'demographic menu.'" The pilot project 'Reproductive Health,' initiated by the council, contributed to the development of the menu.

"It's too early to talk about a reversal in birth rates—it's a slow process. But in November of this year, compared to the same period last year, 26 regions saw an increase in births. The leaders were Magadan Oblast, Sevastopol, the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, Mordovia, and the Leningrad and Kaliningrad Oblasts," the Deputy Prime Minister noted.

The next important area of work is the health of citizens.

In December, a Presidential decree approved the Healthcare Development Strategy. Among other provisions, it focuses on strengthening reproductive health, combating risk factors for non-communicable diseases, especially among young people, and the need to increase the proportion of citizens leading a healthy lifestyle.

Particular attention is being paid to disease prevention and detection. As of November 1, nearly 77 million citizens had undergone medical checkups.

Last year, the government introduced reproductive health screening. Nearly 13 million men and women have completed it. Of the women treated, 12,000 have become pregnant.

At the council's request, monitoring of the organization and implementation of preventive examinations and screenings for university and college students was launched in July of this year. More than 2.2 million students have been informed, 53% of whom have undergone medical examinations.

"At our meetings, we discussed the issue of excess body weight. At the council's request, a set of measures to combat obesity in children and adolescents has been developed and is being implemented. By March 2026, a set of measures to combat obesity in adults will be completed. I would like to emphasize that this comprehensive plan should be consistent with the comprehensive plan developed for children and adolescents," the Deputy Prime Minister emphasized.

Another area of work is the quality of life of senior citizens and citizens with special health needs.

A government decision has enabled the provision of Russian Sign Language interpretation services using an electronic certificate; technical readiness has been ensured, and the issuance of a certificate confirming disability in electronic form, effective March 1, 2026, is now available on the government services portal.

At the request of the council, a comprehensive interdepartmental plan for the life of people with mental and behavioral disabilities has been updated.

With the participation of council members, the work of inpatient social service organizations for citizens with mental disorders is changing.

This year, with the participation of council members, a Strategy for Action for Senior Citizens until 2030 and an implementation plan were developed and approved by the Government in April.

"As part of the national project 'Family,' over 400 new social centers for senior citizens have been opened, primarily in small and medium-sized towns, hosting over 40,000 events. Cultural infrastructure is being updated. This year, 110 museums and 20 regional and municipal theaters received new equipment, nearly 250 municipal libraries were refurbished according to the standard model, 14 museums and seven cultural and leisure facilities were modernized, six philharmonic societies were renovated, and over 280 regional cultural organizations were provided with musical instruments and equipment," said Tatyana Golikova.

In conclusion, Tatyana Golikova noted that the council's proposed solutions support the work of the Government, ministries, and regions and form the basis for strategic documents and legislative decisions. She thanked everyone for their work in 2025.

Order No. 3871-r of December 19, 2025

By 2035, Russia must establish at least nine scientific and technological competence centers, as well as up to 50 laboratories, aimed at developing new types of transportation equipment, as well as new materials and technologies for transport construction. This is one of the objectives of the Concept for the Scientific and Technological Development of the Russian Transport Complex through 2035. Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin signed the order approving this strategic planning document.

The new centers' areas of focus include the development of high-speed rail, autonomous (unmanned) vehicles, electric vehicles and charging infrastructure, hydrogen-fueled transport, as well as the development of the Trans-Arctic Transport Corridor and transport logistics technologies.

A research institute for transport will coordinate scientific research and experimental development for the transport sector, including through new competence centers. It will be established within the Russian University of Transport.

The new competence centers and laboratories are expected to increase applied scientific research, which in turn will lead to the launch of new start-ups in the transportation sector.

The same goal is pursued by the creation of youth technology entrepreneurship centers (business incubators) at industry universities and the launch of a grant program for student startup developers.
