Congratulations from Alexander Novak on Nuclear Industry Worker's Day.

Dear colleagues!

For eight decades, the nuclear industry has rightfully been considered the pride of Russian science and engineering. Thanks to the hard work, experience, and dedication of those driving this field forward, a solid foundation has been laid for ensuring energy security, sovereignty, and sustainable development for our country. Today, the nuclear sector is not only a symbol of Russia's technological leadership but also an inexhaustible source of inspiration for scientists, engineers, researchers, and innovators.

On this day, special words of appreciation and gratitude go to our dear veterans. You were the ones who stood at the origins of the nuclear industry, sparing no effort or health for this great goal, demonstrating courage and the highest level of professionalism. Your perseverance, knowledge, and wisdom became the foundation for new generations of nuclear scientists, inspiring young specialists to achieve great things and create for the benefit of the country.

Today, the Russian nuclear industry continues to grow confidently, implementing large-scale projects around the world, introducing cutting-edge technologies, and strengthening our country's position on the international stage. And this is thanks invaluable to the efforts of each and every one of you: veterans, active professionals, and young employees just taking their first steps in this field.

Please accept my sincere gratitude for your work, commitment to principles, and dedication to the development of the domestic nuclear industry. I wish you and your families good health, happiness, prosperity, new successes, discoveries, and victories in the name of our country!

On September 28, 2025, Russian nuclear scientists celebrate their professional holiday and the 80th anniversary of the industry.

Dear friends!

Congratulations on your professional holiday and the 80th anniversary of the nuclear industry.

Russian nuclear scientists have made remarkable discoveries that have had a profound impact on the development of global science and the course of human history. Over decades of work, a nuclear shield has been created and a powerful scientific and industrial complex has been established. Your work exemplifies Russia's unique intellectual potential.

Today, the industry is one of the most high-tech and of strategic importance to the state. It ensures energy security, strengthens the nuclear weapons complex, operates the Northern Sea Route, and builds a nuclear icebreaker fleet. It creates technologies, IT solutions, and new materials and substances that are used in various fields, including industry and medicine. It's important that you never rest on your laurels, develop dynamically, implement new projects and programs, and expand international cooperation.

Your competence, dedication, and responsible approach to work enable you to consistently achieve high results, contribute to technological sovereignty, and strengthen the country's defense capability.

I would like to express my gratitude to the veterans who have contributed so much to the development of the industry. I also wish all nuclear industry workers continued success and achievements for the benefit of the Fatherland and our citizens. I wish you and your families good health and prosperity.

Closing ceremony of the fourth Open World Astronomy Olympiad (2025).

The closing ceremony of the fourth Open World Astronomy Olympiad (Open World Astronomy Olympiad 2025) took place at the Sirius Federal University. The intellectual competition, held from September 20 to 27, brought together teams of high school students from more than 15 countries. All six members of the Russian team won gold medals, repeating their success from all three years of participation. Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko and Minister of Education Sergei Kravtsov congratulated the winners.

"President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin recently called for every effort to ensure Russia remains a leader in space exploration and research. Our schoolchildren's remarkable victory at the International Astronomy Olympiad demonstrates that we have the key to maintaining this leadership: talented and passionate students. We are proud that all six team members once again won gold. I thank their parents, teachers, and mentors for their support and contribution to their preparation. I wish our winners continued interest in astronomy and a worthy application of their talents for the benefit of our entire country," the Deputy Prime Minister stated.

Ekaterina Churkina, Vladimir Zinin, Nikolai Gamynin, Olga Karaseva, Ivan Pruglo, and Margarita Tsvetkova won gold medals. Ekaterina Churkina became the overall winner of the Olympiad.

"I congratulate all the participants and winners of the Open International Astronomy Olympiad! Hosting such a high-level competition in Russia is a landmark event, underscoring our commitment to developing scientific cooperation. The most talented schoolchildren from around the world have gathered at the Sirius Federal Campus. Astronomy is a significant science that not only reveals the secrets of the Universe but also shapes scientific understanding and teaches global thinking. I wholeheartedly congratulate our team on their brilliant success – all Russian participants once again won gold medals. I would like to express special gratitude to the mentors and coaches whose hard work, professionalism, and faith in their students are the foundation of these victories," noted Sergey Kravtsov.

In 2025, 18 participants from Russia, Belarus, Mongolia, Armenia, Peru, Egypt, Bangladesh, and Venezuela won gold medals. Sixteen schoolchildren each won silver and bronze medals.

Teams of six were formed from schoolchildren under 18.

The competition consisted of four rounds: observation, practical, theoretical, and testing. All assignments were completed in English.

The Open World Astronomy Olympiad is an international competition for high school students, targeting students from the CIS, SCO, BRICS, and other friendly countries. The event aims to promote astronomy education, identify talented students, and strengthen international academic ties.

Deputy Prime Minister and Chief of the Government Staff Dmitry Grigorenko held a working meeting with representatives of digital platforms from Russia and China at the World Expo for Digital Commerce in Hangzhou. The key topic of the dialogue was a discussion of current trends in digital economy regulation and the exchange of experience between the two countries.

The meeting focused on a new federal law adopted in Russia in July of this year, which establishes basic rules for regulating digital intermediary platforms. The law aims to increase the transparency of online platforms and protect consumer rights. Key innovations include mandatory identification of sellers through state information systems, as well as a ban on the distribution of certain categories of goods, such as dietary supplements and medications, without a state registration certificate.

According to the law, foreign platforms must also comply with the new rules. To this end, foreign partners are required to establish branches or representative offices in Russia.

"Next year, a law regulating the platform economy will come into force, including new rules for foreign platforms. It's important for us to coordinate our efforts with our Chinese partners to ensure the practical implementation of these regulations and the protection of citizens' interests on digital platforms," noted Dmitry Grigorenko.

Russia was one of the first countries to adopt a law regulating the platform economy. This July, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed the law. The new measures will come into effect on October 1, 2026.

The meeting was attended by Minister of Economic Development Maxim Reshetnikov and Minister of Digital Development Maksut Shadayev, as well as representatives of the largest e-commerce platforms from Russia and China.

On World Tourism Day, Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko and Minister of Economic Development Maxim Reshetnikov congratulated industry workers and travelers and presented tourist data for the first eight months of this year.

The Deputy Prime Minister noted the significance of the achieved indicators.

"According to Rosstat, the number of tourist trips within Russia increased by 5% over the first eight months compared to the same period last year, exceeding 61 million. In our country, measures under the national project 'Tourism and Hospitality' are helping to develop domestic tourism. Thanks to them, regions are improving infrastructure and creating new tourism products. This contributes to the goal set by President Vladimir Putin of ensuring that tourism accounts for 5% of the country's GDP and 140 million tourist trips by 2030," said Dmitry Chernyshenko.

He wished Russians to travel more, discovering the beauty and sights of the country.

Dmitry Chernyshenko added that, thanks to support measures from the federal government, positive trends have been maintained for the fifth year. Following a decline caused by the coronavirus pandemic, the number of tourist trips is steadily growing: 66.5 million in 2021 (40% more than in 2020), 73.1 million in 2022 (almost 10% more than in 2021), 83.6 million in 2023 (14% more than in 2022), and 90 million in 2024 (almost 8% more than in 2023).

Last year, 2024, was a record year for tourist trips across Russia, with the number increasing by 37% compared to 2021.

Based on the results of the first eight months of 2025, Moscow (8.2 million trips), Krasnodar Krai (6.5 million), and St. Petersburg (4.8 million) traditionally received the largest number of tourists. The top six also included the Moscow Region (3.8 million), the Republic of Tatarstan (2 million), and the Republic of Crimea (1.8 million). Particularly impressive growth rates were demonstrated by regions actively developing tourism infrastructure: the Karachay-Cherkess Republic, the Republic of Adygea, the Republic of Kalmykia, Tver Oblast, and the Jewish Autonomous Oblast.

"It's encouraging to see domestic tourism growing in popularity. This shows that our efforts to diversify the tourism market are paying off," commented Maxim Reshetnikov.

On World Tourism Day, celebrated on September 27, Dmitry Chernyshenko and Maxim Reshetnikov also congratulated industry workers and travelers.

"I congratulate all industry representatives on this holiday. I wish you creative and professional growth, new ideas, health, and inspiration. I am confident that through our joint efforts, we will make our regions even more attractive for travel," the Deputy Prime Minister said.

"I express my gratitude to everyone who contributes to the development of the tourism industry. Through the combined efforts of the government, regions, and businesses, the industry will continue to build its potential, facilitating economic growth and creating a comfortable environment for millions of tourists," Maxim Reshetnikov noted, addressing tourism industry workers.

On September 27, Russia celebrates a professional holiday: Day of the Teacher and All Workers in the Preschool Education System. This day is intended to highlight the immense importance of the work of those who lay the foundations of a child's personality and help them take their first steps into the world of knowledge. Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko and Minister of Education Sergei Kravtsov congratulated Russian teachers on this professional holiday.

"Our President, Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, has repeatedly emphasized the important role of education in the development of individuals and society. Today, over 637,000 teachers work in Russia's preschool education system. These are incredibly responsible, caring, and attentive people who instill traditional values in our children and foster a continued interest in learning and exploring the world. I thank each of them for their contribution to shaping our future—the younger generation. And congratulations on your professional holiday! I wish you responsive students and parents, bright ideas, an inexhaustible passion for your work, and as many reasons as possible for joy in each day," the Deputy Prime Minister noted.

Dmitry Chernyshenko added that the "Teachers and Mentors" federal project, part of the "Youth and Children" national project, includes a range of support measures aimed at enhancing professional status and creating comfortable working conditions.

The Deputy Prime Minister reported that there are more than 32,000 independent kindergartens and over 44,000 organizations implementing preschool education programs in the country.

The industry's human resources potential is impressive in its diversity and professionalism.

"The profession of a teacher requires not only the highest level of professionalism but also boundless generosity of spirit. We place special emphasis on creating conditions for the continuous professional growth of preschool teachers. One of our most important tasks is to provide them with all the necessary resources and teaching materials to ensure that their work in kindergarten is modern, engaging, and effective," added Minister of Education Sergey Kravtsov.

Professional excellence competitions are an important tool for enhancing the prestige of the profession and disseminating best practices. These competitions identify talented teachers and innovators in their field, and provide an opportunity for the entire professional community to adopt best practices. The main competition in the preschool education system is "Teacher of the Year in Russia."

Educator's and All Preschool Workers' Day has been celebrated in Russia since 2004. The date of September 27 was chosen for a reason: on this day in 1863, the first kindergarten in Russia opened in St. Petersburg.

We intend to further expand our cooperation and share positive experiences," said Marat Khusnullin.

In turn, Tajik Prime Minister Kokhir Rasulzoda thanked Marat Khusnullin and the Russian Government for their continued attention to the development of Russian-Tajik cooperation and prompt response to emerging issues.

"President of the Republic of Tajikistan Emomali Rahmon has repeatedly noted that the comprehensive development of relations between the Russian Federation and the Republic of Tajikistan is a key and strategically important priority of the republic's foreign policy. At the meeting, we discussed in detail the parameters for further work within the intergovernmental commission. I would like to note that all the agreements signed at the previous meeting are yielding tangible results. Thanks to the efforts of both sides, indicators in various areas are improving. Furthermore, there are great prospects in the economic, agricultural, energy, investment, and other areas. I would like to emphasize the Government of Tajikistan's firm commitment to further strengthening mutually beneficial strategic cooperation with the Russian Federation. We highly value our friendship and multifaceted cooperation with Russia and look forward to continuing our fruitful work in all key areas. I thank all members of the commission for their productive work," noted Kokhir Rasulzoda.

Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko attended the ceremonial opening of a Buddhist Sunday school. It will operate at the renovated Kalmyk National Gymnasium in Elista.

"Today is a wonderful, historic day. A Buddhist school is opening at the Kalmykia National Gymnasium, which was renovated thanks to the "Youth and Children" national project, offering supplementary education. Under wise leadership, it will combine secular and spiritual education. The values of Buddhism largely align with those enshrined in President Vladimir Putin's Decree No. 809. It is in Kalmykia, where representatives and peoples of different faiths have lived in friendship for centuries, that children will receive precisely this kind of proper education and be instilled with kindness, compassion, love for one's neighbor, and love for one's homeland—all of which distinguish our Russia," noted Dmitry Chernyshenko.

The Deputy Prime Minister wished all the students success in their studies. He expressed confidence that the opportunities opened up in the country by the national projects established at the President's behest will be realized at the highest level.

"We are fulfilling the instructions and guidance of our President, Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, and are contributing to the development of Buddhist education. We are working to ensure that secular and Buddhist approaches to education unite, bringing goodness and knowledge, and opening the way to harmony. This is the enormous work of our fellow countrymen and those who have come from other regions. They understand that they are serving a special and very important mission," said Batu Khasikov, Head of the Republic of Kalmykia.

Classes at the Buddhist school are taught personally by the Shajin Lama of Kalmykia, Geshe Tenzin Choydak. He will introduce young students to key concepts of Buddhism. The curriculum includes the study of Buddhist logic. A separate course is devoted to the Old Kalmyk script, "Todo Bichig."

The Deputy Prime Minister attended a celebratory performance by the school's students, toured the school's themed museum exhibit dedicated to the history of Buddhism, and left a symbolic wish for prosperity and success for future generations on the school tree.

Dmitry Chernyshenko assessed the infrastructure of the first phygital center in the Southern Federal District. The center opened in September 2024 as part of the federal project "Business Sprint." Since then, more than 50 phygital and eSports events have been held, and over the past year, over 12,000 people have participated in the center's events.

At the B.B. Gorodovikov Youth Center, which was renovated in 2024, the Deputy Prime Minister met with activists of youth projects and programs, volunteers, members of the "Movement of the First," and representatives of the "Voin" center. The facility, which covers over 1,200 square meters, houses the Republican Youth Center, the regional headquarters of the "Movement of the First," the "Khamdan" association, and a branch of the "Volunteers of Victory."

Dmitry Chernyshenko thanked the volunteers who assist the SVO participants and participate in organizing and holding the International Buddhist Forum. He was also shown the office-museum of Hero of the Soviet Union Basan Gorodovikov, after whom the center is named.

Dmitry Chernyshenko assessed the progress of the reconstruction of the republic's multifunctional youth center, which is being carried out as part of the all-Russian "Region for the Young" program. It will house a branch of the "Movement of the First," creative clubs, and patriotic associations. Plans include creating exhibition spaces and preserving the chess museum named after world chess champion Mikhail Tal.

Dmitry Chernyshenko held a working meeting with the head of the Republic of Kalmykia, Batu Khasikov.

In Elista, Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko held a working meeting with Batu Khasikov, Head of the Republic of Kalmykia. They discussed the development of tourism, science, education, youth policy, and sports in the region.

The Deputy Prime Minister thanked Batu Khasikov for hosting the III International Buddhist Forum, congratulated the head and residents of the republic on the 105th anniversary of its founding, and conveyed congratulations from Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin.

"Our President has set a goal: to increase tourist flow to 140 million people per year by 2030. Kalmykia is making a significant contribution to this goal through its participation in the national project 'Tourism and Hospitality.' According to regional data, this year's tourist numbers have already increased by approximately 80%. I ask you to maintain this momentum, because the incredible nature and fascinating historical sites deserve to be visited by as many tourists as possible. I am pleased that you are effectively using government support tools," the Deputy Prime Minister noted.

As part of the national project "Tourism and Hospitality," the program supporting the construction of modular hotels continues. For example, the Marco Polo hotel complex in Elista has completed projects to build the three-star, 50-bed Marco Polo Garden modular hotel and the 25-bed Ecopark glamping site.

According to the Deputy Prime Minister, business representatives note the rapid return on investment for modular hotels and their popularity among tourists.

On the topic of sports, Dmitry Chernyshenko reported that a government commission is preparing a rating to assess the effectiveness of regions in sports.

"Kalmykia has always demonstrated excellence in this area. By the end of 2024, your citizen participation rate in regular sports was 58%," he added.

The Deputy Prime Minister expressed special gratitude for the work of the phygital center.

"Following President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin's instructions, we are implementing the national project 'Youth and Children' starting this year. The head of state has set a national goal: realizing the potential of every individual, developing their talents, and raising patriotic citizens. One of the key objectives is creating educational infrastructure. More than 3,000 new places have been created in schools and kindergartens in the republic, and 57 schools have been renovated. More than 16,000 students are currently studying at colleges and universities in the region. Gorodovikov Kalmyk State University is part of the 'Priority 2030' program," emphasized Dmitry Chernyshenko.

He instructed the region to focus on engaging educational institutions in more actively implementing federal measures, including the "Professionalism" federal project.

The Deputy Prime Minister and the head of Kalmykia also discussed the development of the scientific sphere in the region.

"Youth laboratories are active—three projects are launching this year. They are receiving support from the Russian Science Foundation. It's gratifying that you personally support talented researchers. They receive the annual award from the Head of the Republic of Kalmykia," said the Deputy Prime Minister.

Dmitry Chernyshenko also emphasized that, thanks to victories in the "Region for the Young" competition, the region received approximately 300 million rubles for the renovation and equipping of youth spaces.

Volunteerism is growing in the republic: approximately 13,000 young people are already involved. For example, volunteers regularly send humanitarian aid to soldiers in the special military operation zone.

"The event we are holding today at the behest of President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin—the 3rd International Buddhist Forum—allows us to make our modest contribution to strengthening Russia's international standing. We are also fulfilling the President's directive to promote Buddhist education, integrating it with secular education. Yes, much work remains to be done in this area, but with the support of federal agencies, I believe we will accomplish this gradually, step by step. And everything is based, of course, on friendship and unity. In this way, we are telling the world that Russia is a great, friendly country, open to cooperation and ready to meet all challenges," said Batu Khasikov.
