In Blagoveshchensk, Deputy Prime Minister and Presidential Plenipotentiary Envoy to the Far Eastern Federal District Yuri Trutnev held meetings on the state of the economy and plans for the socio-economic development of the Amur Region, the progress of new investment projects in the region, and visited master plan sites for the regional capital. He also reviewed the construction of border infrastructure and the modernization of airport infrastructure.

"Overall, the Amur Region is demonstrating good growth rates, growing at an accelerated pace. According to the results of the third quarter of 2025, industrial production growth in the Amur Region amounted to 5.9%, and fixed capital investment in the first half of 2025 increased by 7.4%," Yuri Trutnev opened the meeting.

According to Amur Region Governor Vasily Orlov, the Amur Region's economic growth rate exceeds the Russian average. "Since 2020, the GRP has doubled to 1 trillion rubles. By 2030, 1.7 trillion rubles are expected to be generated through the commissioning of major investment projects. Over the past five years, private investment in the region's economy has totaled 3 trillion rubles," Orlov noted.

The region has a priority development area (PDA) and financial and infrastructure support programs. Fifty-four investors with projects worth 2.473 billion rubles have already taken advantage of these programs. 2.032 billion rubles have been invested, and 19 projects have been commissioned. Fifteen thousand jobs have been created.

Public-private partnerships are being used to support investment projects in various sectors. PPPs are being used to build a new airport terminal, create infrastructure for the international bridge across the Amur River, upgrade street lighting, begin reconstruction of the Blagoveshchensk City Park of Culture and Recreation, and update public utilities infrastructure.

The region has compiled a list of new promising projects in six economic sectors: agriculture, mining, energy, gas chemistry and polymer processing, transport and logistics, and tourism.

Work in the social sphere continues. At the direction of Russian President Vladimir Putin, master plans for four cities in the Amur Region have been approved: Blagoveshchensk, Svobodny, Belogorsk, and Tynda. At the direction of Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin, master plan activities were updated this year, and a long-term development plan was approved for the closed administrative-territorial entity (ZATO) Tsiolkovsky, which will be developed in an agglomeration with Svobodny. The plans provide for the implementation of 239 measures, of which 43 have been completed to date. These measures include the construction of a civil registry office in Svobodny, a gas boiler house and associated heating networks in Belogorsk, and the improvement of two public areas and 45 courtyards in Blagoveshchensk. A series of landscaping, major repairs, and reconstruction of utility, transport, and social infrastructure facilities was completed in Tynda, timed to coincide with the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the capital of the Baikal-Amur Mainline (BAM).

Thanks to national projects, people's quality of life is constantly improving. Last year, 13 national projects were completed, and this year, the Amur Region is participating in 12 new national projects. Overall, over 93 billion rubles have been allocated from the federal budget over the past seven years. The largest portion of funds this year is being allocated to the "Infrastructure for Life," "Family," and "Youth and Children" national projects.

The Hectare and Far Eastern Mortgage programs remain in effect. Over 15,900 loan agreements have been signed under the preferential mortgage program. Over 16,300 people have received land plots under the Hectare program in the Amur Region.

The meeting paid special attention to the construction sector. The Amur Region has been increasing housing construction volumes annually since 2018, with record-breaking new construction over the past three years. In 2024, 506,000 square meters of residential space were commissioned in the Amur Region. Compared to the same period in 2023, this figure was 102%, ranking sixth among regions in the Far Eastern Federal District. Urban development potential has been created, amounting to over 2.6 million square meters.

Regional authorities, together with the Ministry for the Development of the Russian Far East,DOM.RF" supported the construction of 2,470 apartments of subsidized rental housing. The first apartments under the program will be occupied by residents as early as 2026. The apartments will be provided to participants of the Secondary Military Education Program, targeted students, doctors, and teachers.

Before the meeting, Yuri Trutnev inspected Tribune Hall, a key feature of Blagoveshchensk's master plan on the Golden Mile section of the Amur River embankment. The total cost of the architectural complex, which includes Tribune Hall, the Fountain Alley, pavilions housing the Amur Dino Park and a children's center, as well as the improvement of the adjacent 7.7-hectare area, was 3.2 billion rubles, of which 1.5 billion rubles came from the Far Eastern presidential unified subsidy.

At a meeting on the progress of new investment projects in the Amur Region, investors' plans to create two logistics complexes, an industrial park, a wind farm, and residential areas were discussed. These projects will attract an additional 150 billion rubles to the Far East.

"The Amur Region is the leader in terms of attracted investment in the Far East. Over the past 10 years, investment projects implemented in the Amur Region with state support have attracted over 2 trillion rubles. In total, more than 70 investment projects with state support are being implemented in the region, with a total investment volume of 2.5 trillion rubles. 22 of these projects have been commissioned, creating nearly 15,000 jobs," said Yuri Trutnev.

VetroSPK presented a project to build wind farms with a capacity of up to 400 MW in the Zavitinsky Municipal District. FSK Region, a subsidiary of FSK Group, also discussed housing and recreation projects. Several investor proposals for the creation of logistics facilities in Blagoveshchensk were considered. Transporter LLC is preparing documents to obtain priority development area (PDA) resident status in order to implement the Trans Vostok logistics hub project. AiGroup, as a resident of the Amurskaya PDA, plans to build a 39,700 square meter logistics complex in the region. An industrial park for the production of high-tech equipment, including materials for 3D printers and components for hydrogen energy, may be established in the Blagoveshchensk Municipal District. This park is expected to create approximately 1,000 jobs.

That same day, the Deputy Prime Minister inspected the progress of construction of the permanent international automobile checkpoint and customs and logistics terminal "Kani-Kurgan." Both facilities are located near the Blagoveshchensk-Heihe International Bridge. The border crossing reconstruction is being carried out as part of the "Efficient Transport System" national project. The permanent automobile checkpoint project envisions the construction of 48 buildings and structures with a total area of over 8,000 square meters. According to the design documentation, the total throughput capacity of the Kani-Kurgan international automobile checkpoint will be 862 vehicles and approximately 5,500 people per day. The border crossing will have 16 traffic lanes, with the potential to increase to 24. Currently, freight traffic is handled on six lanes.

Yuri Trutnev also reviewed the progress of reconstruction, modernization, and operation of infrastructure facilities at Blagoveshchensk International Airport (Ignatievo) named after N.N. Muravyov-Amursky.

A large-scale reconstruction of the airport's terminal complex is currently being completed. Construction began in 2023. The building covers over 25,000 square meters, with a design capacity of 600 passengers per hour on domestic routes and 400 passengers per hour on international routes. Finishing work is currently underway inside the building. Reconstruction of the terminal area, which now includes a 600-space parking lot, has been completed. Improvements to the airport's terminal area are also underway.

Deputy Prime Ministers of Russia Tatyana Golikova, Dmitry Chernyshenko, and Alexey Overchuk attended the award ceremony for the winners of the International Prize

The event brought together more than 18,000 social project leaders, heads of charitable foundations, volunteers and mentors, volunteer movement organizers, and volunteer network participants from 48 countries.

Russian President Vladimir Putin awarded the winner of the "Volunteer of the Year" award. The winner was Anna Pluzhnikova, a participant in the Anapa environmental disaster relief mission.

He also congratulated volunteers on the upcoming holiday – Volunteer Day.

"Thank you very much for being here, in your position, helping the country and, most importantly, helping specific people solve the problems they face," the President said during the ceremony.

Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova and People's Artist of Russia Konstantin Khabensky presented awards to the winners in the "Code of Mercy" category. The first-place winner was the "Tylsym" Inclusive Center project from the Republic of Tatarstan.

"Our prize is turning five years old. We couldn't have imagined that in such a short period of time, the number of people for whom it would become an integral part of their lives would be so great. Over these five years, more than 200,000 applications have been submitted. And every year, the number grows. 2025 is no exception: over 52,000 applications have been submitted from 147 countries. This is already a global prize, and I sincerely congratulate you on this.

And, of course, this was made possible because there are so many caring people in the world. "The Code of Mercy" is an extraordinary nomination. It's something in our blood, something we live for. I don't know a single person who doesn't share a part of themselves with another. Our nominees make our country what it is today. These people have done everything possible to ensure that the elderly, people with disabilities, SVO participants, and those who dedicate themselves to promoting a healthy lifestyle and donating blood received assistance. Thanks to people like you, the country is growing stronger, its good deeds are multiplying, and, most importantly, it brings even more caring people into this orbit," emphasized the Deputy Prime Minister of Russia, co-chair of the organizing committee for the International Prize.

The Tylsym (Magic) Children's Inclusive Center helps children with various disabilities learn, develop, and communicate. The center has two main programs: group developmental and rehabilitation classes, and a training apartment for children with mental disabilities.

Tatyana Golikova, Konstantin Khabensky, and Zhang Ling, Deputy Secretary-General of the Conference on Interaction and Confidence-Building Measures in Asia, also presented awards to the winners in the international category "Helping People." Projects from Kenya, Kazakhstan, and Serbia shared the award.

Dmitry Chernyshenko presented the awards in the Mentor of the Year category.

"It's no coincidence that our President, Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, says that Russia is a country of volunteerism. More than 9 million participants are registered on the Dobro.RF platform. This award is very important. Since this year, it has become part of the national project 'Youth and Children.' This national project has a large number of different tools that you should know how to use. But most importantly, it has measurable indicators. By 2030, the President has mandated that more than 45% of our youth regularly participate in volunteer and community activities. I hope you are willing to help them and share your experiences," he noted.

The Deputy Prime Minister emphasized the important role of parents and mentors and called volunteering a calling.

"Nearly 5,000 applications is a good result. And as trite as it may sound, each one is a winner. But the public vote and experts, of course, identified the most important one, the one we will honor today, the one we will identify as a role model for this year," he added.

First place in the category went to Anatoly Zamyatin, an employee of the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations from the Altai Territory who heads the council of mentors for the fire and rescue unit. He organized over 200 events to help new employees adapt. Under his leadership, 20 groups of cadets completed practical training, many of whom became specialists and mentors.

Dmitry Chernyshenko, along with Artem Metelev, Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Youth Policy and Chairman of the Board of the Dobro.RF Association, also reviewed an exhibition of volunteer achievements and spoke with volunteers.

In particular, at the stand of humanitarian missions

At the "Everything for Victory!" stand, the Deputy Prime Minister was presented with the results of the People's Front movement's efforts to assist frontline soldiers and civilians in border areas. Dmitry Chernyshenko left commemorative inscriptions on the movement's chevron and flag.

During the awards ceremony, Deputy Prime Minister Alexey Overchuk and UN Volunteers Executive Coordinator Toyli Kurbanov presented the award to the winner in the special category "Good Deed of the Year." The winner was Anton Marie Lim from the Philippines for his project "Yellow School Boat."

"In the international direction of the award

The Yellow Boat of Hope is the flagship initiative of the Yellow Boat of Hope Foundation Philippines, established in 2010. Over the past 15 years, the project has provided over 5,500 boats to approximately 40,000 students in remote areas to help them get to school.

Sergei Sobyanin held a traditional public reception

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Sergei Sobyanin Held a personal citizen's reception at the Russian Presidential Executive Office. Residents were able to ask questions in person and via videoconference.

Alexey Kanaykin, CEO of Fora LLC, requested that the construction of a children's and adult clinic near Zeninskoye Highway in the Nekrasovka district be completed and commissioned as soon as possible. He also requested that a trauma department and a dental clinic be opened at the facility.

Sergei Sobyanin noted that major changes are taking place in Nekrasovka: a metro station has been built, a sports center has been established, a large shopping center is nearing completion, and comprehensive improvements are underway. A special economic zone with industrial and high-tech enterprises and jobs has been created nearby.

Much attention is also paid to the development of healthcare.

"You're right that Nekrasovka's population is growing rapidly. Moreover, we have residents in the Moscow region surrounding Nekrasovka who actively use the social and cultural facilities in Nekrasovka. We've reconstructed and are completing the renovation of virtually all of Nekrasovka's outpatient clinics, both for adults and children, which will certainly improve the quality of care. We've seen, at your request, the need to build an additional new outpatient clinic in Nekrasovka. Construction is underway. Construction is scheduled for completion in 2026 and launch in the first quarter of 2027. But I'll ask my colleagues to expedite the project so that it can be opened by the end of next year," the Moscow Mayor promised.

He added that Nekrasovka is one of the most difficult areas of the capital.

"It wasn't built quite to modern standards, so to speak. Many issues were overlooked. The result was a residential area, but a bedroom community in the worst sense of the word. Therefore, we have done everything possible to ensure Nekrasovka is—and is—becoming a modern, normal district of Moscow. A fully functional one, with new jobs, good social and cultural amenities, and excellent landscaping. And we will continue to work on this," said the Moscow Mayor.

Sergei Sobyanin also spoke with Anastasia Yakovleva, CEO of Lidness LLC. She requested that construction of a multi-level intercepting ground parking facility with 300 spaces near the Rasskazovka transport hub in the Vnukovo district be completed as soon as possible. Anastasia noted that several changes have occurred in the years since the area became part of the capital. big changesWell-maintained parks and roads have appeared. The improvements attract new residents, many of whom commute to work by metro, but in the mornings, there aren't enough parking spaces.

"Rasskazovka is essentially a transfer station where you can transfer from your personal car to the metro. Therefore, we will develop the transport hub. We have begun construction of a new multi-level parking garage. We will complete it by the end of 2026, perhaps even earlier. But not too far away, on the border with Novo-Peredelkino, another multi-level parking garage with 800 spaces is being built, along with a surface parking lot with 70-80 spaces. So the situation there will improve. And we will certainly complete this parking garage. I will oversee it," said Sergei Sobyanin.

Four sports complexes have been built in the south of the capital using city funds since 2020.A sports complex and technology park will be built in the Vnukovo district, according to Sergei Sobyanin.

Elena Tretyakova, HR Manager at Pension-19 LLC, approached the Mayor of Moscow with a request to build a roller ski track near the Novaya Zvezda Biathlon Center in the Mitino district. She is raising three sons, two of whom are professional biathletes. She thanked the Mayor for his assistance in constructing the Novaya Zvezda Biathlon Center.

According to Sergei Sobyanin, given the short winter season, the city is building tracks with artificial snow to help athletes maintain their fitness. The Moscow mayor explained that the area where the roller ski track is planned is located in the Moscow region.

"And, of course, we had to work quite hard to create this track. Because the track itself is in such a state—ravines, landslides, dead wood, and so on. A thorough hydrological study and so on were necessary. Plus, the project itself is quite complex; this track is over 10 kilometers long. Essentially, it's an engineering structure across all these ravines. But nevertheless, we're finishing the project. I think we'll have the roller ski track built by 2027," the Moscow Mayor said.

Anna Valts, general director of a beauty salon, urged the Moscow Mayor to expedite the opening of a women's health center on Aleksandrovka Street in the Kryukovo district. She noted that the capital is implementing a new standard of medical care for women. Women's health centers offer patients all types of medical care in one place—from preparing for childbirth to maintaining their health. This significantly reduces the number of visits to other hospitals or clinics.

The Moscow Mayor noted that the construction of women's health centers is a very important and necessary undertaking. This requires significant capital investment, including the renovation of old buildings or the construction of new ones, the purchase of necessary equipment, and personnel.

"Many existing antenatal clinics are located in adapted spaces, have sufficient equipment, and are essentially disconnected from maternity hospitals, perinatal centers, and large clinics. So, a woman has to go first to the antenatal clinic, then to the hospital, and then to the maternity hospital. These are all different teams of people, and seamless care—from diagnosis to treatment—isn't possible. Moreover, sometimes a mother needs the help of not only the maternity hospital but also a multifunctional center. This ensures that her health is monitored. We have planned to build such a center in Zelenograd on the premises of the perinatal center. Extensive work is currently underway. Essentially, a new building is being erected on the site of the old one. The building's layout is being changed, and a complete renovation is underway. I hope that we will complete this renovation and create this center within a short timeframe," promised Sergei Sobyanin.

Individual entrepreneur Artem Besedin also appealed to the Moscow Mayor, asking for the expedited completion of construction and the opening of the Central Sports Arena at the E.A. Streltsov Sports Complex in the Danilovsky District. He noted that the capital places great emphasis on sports, and football is one of the most popular.

Sergei Sobyanin recalled that the capital has reconstructed famous stadiums and is opening new ones sports complexesReconstruction work at Torpedo Stadium is almost 70 percent complete.

"We insisted that the investors not only restore, but essentially build, a new, modern Torpedo Streltsov Stadium, as they had requested. It's already in fairly advanced condition. About 70 percent of the construction work is complete. I was there recently and looked around. The stadium is very beautiful and wonderful. Much better than what was there before. This is a stadium that meets all the necessary requirements of both FIFA and the Russian Football Union. So, not only will training be held in the main arena, the training arena, but it will also be able to host high-quality, major competitions. There's no longer any threat to this; on the contrary, we're looking forward to all the work being completed next year. I hope that by the end of next year, the Streltsov Central Sports Arena will be up and running and will once again delight both fans and athletes," the Moscow Mayor noted.

Sobyanin spoke about a comprehensive approach to developing healthcare in Moscow.State-of-the-art medical facilities will be built in the capital between 2026 and 2028.

Specialists urban economy complex Rehabilitation work has begun on Shibaevsky Pond in the southeast of the capital. This was announced by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Housing, Utilities, and Improvement. Petr Biryukov.

"Shibaevsky Pond is part of the Kuzminsky Ponds cascade, located on the Churilikha River within the Kuzminki-Lyublino Museum-Reserve. For many years, it has been a favorite recreation spot for local residents, but currently, the pond is in poor condition, with large amounts of silt accumulated at the bottom. Therefore, a decision was made to undertake a comprehensive rehabilitation. We plan to complete the work by the end of this year," said Pyotr Biryukov.
