Tatyana Golikova opened the "Russia – a Family of Families" marathon organized by the Russian Knowledge Society.

Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova opened the "Russia – A Family of Families" marathon organized by the Russian Knowledge Society. The large-scale event is taking place at the National Center "Russia."

The marathon aims to showcase the strength, potential, and harmony of the peoples of Russia, allowing everyone to feel part of a large, united family. Lectures, master classes, exhibitions, and film screenings are organized for four thousand young people—representatives of over 190 nationalities of the Russian Federation, as well as foreign guests. The main event will be the grand opening of the Year of Unity of the Peoples of Russia, a ceremony that will encompass all regions via a teleconference with participants from 89 constituent entities of the Russian Federation.

"The Year of Unity of the Peoples of Russia is a truly momentous event. This year is about each of us, because it is our multinational people who form the foundation of our great country's unity. It is symbolic that the opening is taking place at the National Center 'Russia'—a place where the best traditions and generational ties are concentrated, and where the country's achievements and victories are presented. Russia is home to 194 peoples, each unique and distinctive. Mutual understanding and unity have always been the hallmarks of our interaction. Throughout the state's more than 1,000-year history, it is cohesion, consolidation, and unity that have helped the country develop and overcome the most difficult challenges. This was the case during the war, it is the case now, and it will always be the case," Tatyana Golikova addressed the participants.

The Deputy Prime Minister noted that Russia's strength lies in its intangible heritage: 300 languages are spoken, making it the most multilingual country in the world. Schools teach 75 languages, the media speaks 65 languages, and books are written in 90 languages. Therefore, in 2022, Vladimir Putin signed a decree on the intangible ethnocultural heritage of the Russian Federation—fairy tales, epics, dances, songs, and cuisine. "I can't help but mention our indigenous peoples of the North, Siberia, and the Far East. We have 47 of them, living in 28 regions of the country. And therefore, another very important document, which was launched in 2026, is the concept for the development of indigenous peoples of the North, Siberia, and the Far East, aimed at fostering the traditions and habitats of indigenous peoples. This is all what we must focus on, what we must invest in together, and what we must develop," Tatyana Golikova emphasized in her speech.

Following the marathon's opening, the Deputy Prime Minister visited areas for sports, creative arts, and culinary master classes dedicated to the culture, traditions, and history of Russia's peoples. She also toured the multimedia exhibition "Heroes of the Special Operation: A Feat of Unity," a folk literature library, and the interactive zone "17 Traditional Values of Russia," which aims to introduce the principles that unite Russia's peoples. Guests also viewed the interactive exhibition "Book of Fairy Tales," where participants follow the hero's journey, overcome trials, and enter a world of magic. The exhibition is dedicated to Russian tales, legends, and epics from Russia's regions. Since its opening, it has attracted 30,000 visitors.

The federal educational marathon "Russia – a Family of Families" organized by the Russian Society "Knowledge," dedicated to the launch of the Year of Unity of Peoples of the Country, aims to strengthen unity, interethnic harmony, and mutual understanding among the peoples of Russia. At the event, young people will learn about the cultural and linguistic diversity that enriches the country and is an advantage in an era of geopolitical change.

The marathon's speakers include government officials, Heroes of Russia, prominent athletes, and artists. The cultural program will feature performances by renowned ethno-pop artists. Participants will also enjoy creative, sports, and culinary master classes led by renowned experts, exhibitions, and fashion shows. The marathon will feature documentaries about the nature, culture, and history of Altai, the Russian North, and Kamchatka. A folk literature library will be open, featuring works by prominent writers from various nations. In the gastronomic arena, a team of chefs from the "Gastronomic Map of Russia" project will introduce young people to the culinary traditions of Russia's peoples. A large-scale flash mob, "Round Dance of Friendship," will be a living symbol of unity, featuring representatives of dozens of nationalities.

Marat Khusnullin: 32 urban agglomerations have reached the first level of maturity in the development of intelligent transport systems.

Traffic lights with adaptive control systems, Penza, Penza region.

Thanks to the federal project "System-wide Measures for Road Development" within the national project "Infrastructure for Life," the development of intelligent transport systems continues. By the end of 2025, 32 urban agglomerations will have declared themselves to have reached the first level of maturity, according to Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.

The legislation defines criteria for each of the six levels (from 0 to 5) of intelligent transport system development. The higher the level, the wider the coverage area of the smart equipment and the broader the range of capabilities of the system.

"Intelligent transport systems optimize public transport, improve the quality of transportation services, enhance road safety, and reduce congestion. It is crucial to scale up digitalization efforts across the country. By the end of 2025, 32 urban agglomerations had declared that they had achieved at least Level 1 ITS maturity, compared to the 20 planned under the federal project. Of these, the Belgorod and Tyumen regions, Krasnoyarsk Krai, and Perm Krai have reached Level 2 maturity. Thus, modern digital solutions for effective traffic management are being implemented at an accelerated pace. Overall, our goal is to achieve at least Level 1 ITS maturity in 66 cities that make up urban agglomerations by 2030," said Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Marat Khusnullin.

Work on implementing and developing ITS in the regions began in 2020 thanks to the "Safe, High-Quality Roads" national project. Since 2025, these activities have been implemented under the "Infrastructure for Life" national project, and the geography of participating regions is expanding.

"Over the course of five years, the number of cities participating in the ITS implementation program under the national project has grown from 28 (in 22 regions of the country) to 65 (in 57 regions). The Republic of Crimea will join them in 2026: smart systems will begin to be installed in the Simferopol metropolitan area. Thus, we continue to create a modern and efficient transport infrastructure that promotes sustainable urban development and improves the quality of life for Russians," noted Russian Transport Minister Andrei Nikitin.

The systematic development of smart systems in urban agglomerations has become possible thanks to ongoing federal support.

"In 2025 alone, 2.7 billion rubles were allocated from the federal budget for the development of intelligent transport systems in the regions. One of the key objectives of this work is to ensure the integration and interconnection of existing subsystems with new ones, as well as to create the conditions for their future optimization," noted Kairat Tursunbekov, Deputy Head of the Federal Road Agency.

In the Penza urban agglomeration, engineers from the State Budgetary Institution "Safe Region" are implementing intelligent transport systems on the street and road network. In 2025, they equipped 18 traffic lights with adaptive control systems and installed eight traffic flow monitoring systems. Thanks to this work, coordinated control based on the "green wave" principle has been launched on eight key streets and 45 traffic lights. At 13 of Penza's busiest intersections, smart traffic lights operate in adaptive mode, analyzing traffic density in real time.

As a result, the average public transport speed in the Penza metropolitan area increased to the standard 23 km/h. The number of driver violations also decreased. Furthermore, two more automatic road weather stations were installed in 2025. They are equipped with sensors to measure road surface temperature and condition. Notifications about road conditions—wet, dry, or icy—are displayed on dynamic information boards.

In the Kirov metropolitan area, ITS implementation under the national project began in 2022. The tools include controllers, detectors, video cameras, and weather stations. The ITS is based on an integration platform, which enables all data to be uploaded into a single system. This enables the regulation of various processes, such as managing traffic lights to improve road safety. Currently, 163 traffic lights, including 36 pedestrian ones, are connected to the system. The system allows for both automatic and manual control of their operation.

Ulan-Ude has been implementing ITS since 2021. Since then, the Ulan-Ude Traffic Management Center has been established, along with a data processing center, which includes a control room and a server room with an additional power supply. Ninety-two traffic lights have also been modernized, 164 360-degree cameras have been installed to monitor traffic conditions, and 250 traffic detectors have been installed to collect data on speed, vehicle type, and other traffic flow parameters. Coordinated traffic light control is currently in use on 12 major streets.

As a result of this work, public transport speed increased by 31%, and the average speed in Ulan-Ude during rush hour increased from 15.5 to 22.8 km/h.

Using CCTV cameras installed at traffic lights, operators monitor the city's traffic situation. Video analytics enable the detection of accidents, as well as instances of illegal driving or sudden vehicle stops. Information about traffic incidents is transmitted to specialized services. As a result, the response time of emergency services and accident commissioners has been halved.

Furthermore, ITS enables monitoring and control of public transport operations. GLONASS data is transmitted to the Smart Transport app and the city transport portal, allowing passengers to track public transport movements in real time and plan their trips.

190th anniversary of Nikolai Dobrolyubov's birth

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Source: Official website of the State –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Nikolai Alexandrovich Dobrolyubov was a Russian literary critic, publicist, representative of the "Revolutionary Democrats" club, and poet. He was born on February 5, 1836, into a priest's family. He spent his childhood in Nizhny Novgorod, receiving a good education from his parents at home. It was thanks to this that he was accepted directly into his final year of study at the seminary. Even then, he began keeping a list of the books he had read and recording his impressions of them.

In 1853, Dobrolyubov enrolled in the Main Pedagogical Institute of St. Petersburg, in the history and philology department. There, he organized an underground circle, leading the students' struggle against the reactionary administration of the institute, and began publishing a handwritten newspaper, "Rumors." Nikolai was not afraid to express his sharply negative attitude toward the autocracy in works such as "On the 50th Anniversary of N.I. Grech" and "One on the Death of Nicholas I," which were also distributed beyond the institute.

The young critic's work was greatly influenced by representatives of the revolutionary democratic intelligentsia—Vissarion Belinsky, Alexander Herzen, and Nikolai Chernyshevsky, with whom he began working on the magazine Sovremennik and later on the Magazine for Education. In 1858, with the support of Nikolai Nekrasov, the satirical magazine Svistok was launched, and in 1859–60, articles on the greatest works of Russian writers appeared: "What is Oblomovism?" (about I. A. Goncharov's novel Oblomov), "The Dark Kingdom" and "A Ray of Light in the Dark Kingdom" (about the plays of A. N. Ostrovsky), and "When Will the Real Day Come?" (about I. S. Turgenev's novel On the Eve).

Dobrolyubov used books as an analysis of Russian life, turning Oblomov and Catherine into symbols of the vices of an entire class. He declared that literature was a reflection of social ills.

In May 1860, at the urging of close friends, Nikolai traveled abroad for treatment for tuberculosis. For over a year, he spent time in Germany, Switzerland, and France. He stayed in Italy for over six months, during which time events related to the national liberation movement led by Garibaldi were taking place. He used the material he collected about the Italian Revolution to expose the anti-popular nature of bourgeois liberalism and glorified the republicans (in "An Incomprehensible Strangeness," "Father Alexander Gavazzi and His Sermons," and "The Life and Death of Count Camillo Benzo Cavour").

Dobrolyubov returned to Russia in July 1861. He had failed to overcome his illness, a battle intertwined with intense work. Seeing off his friend on his final journey, Nekrasov described Nikolai Alexandrovich's biography with these words: "A poor childhood, in the home of a poor village priest; a half-starved education; then four years of feverish, tireless labor; and finally, a year abroad, spent in premonitions of death."

Although Dobrolyubov lived a short life—only 25 years—his contribution to Russia's present and future was truly invaluable. In his work, Dobrolyubov denounced despotism and the feudal system, comparing it to a prison in which all life perishes. He condemned inaction and passivity, arguing for the inevitability of the emergence of a hero-fighter. He considered public service "the highest criterion of an artist's work." It was Nikolai Alexandrovich who became one of the era's leading critics, coining such terms as "Oblomovism," "the dark kingdom," "ray of light," and others, which immediately caught on and became commonplace in discussing social phenomena.

On the 40th anniversary of the critic’s death, Vladimir Ilyich Lenin said that he was dear to “all educated and thinking Russia.”

Maria Zakharova commented on the negotiations with the US, the situation in Venezuela, and recalled history.

During a meeting with students at the State University of Management on February 3, Maria Vladimirovna Zakharova, Director of the Information and Press Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, commented on work with the United States.

"These aren't traditional negotiations: 'Everything's fine, we have a standard relationship, you came to us, now it's our turn to come to you.' This is incredibly complex, painstaking work, conducted on multiple levels, with multiple tracks."

The press secretary noted that communication is possible in various formats: from telephone conversations on specific issues to full-scale in-person meetings. Moreover, it takes place with the appropriate interlocutors – if negotiators from economic, humanitarian, or other fields are present, we offer their counterparts.

During the dialogue, Maria Zakharova also voiced the Foreign Ministry's reaction to the kidnapping of Nicolós Madura in Venezuela by the United States of America:

“Our reaction was not only immediate, it was also voiced in advance in the form of a warning – we see where this is going, and we understand what the world is pushing towards, and we consider this unacceptable, because it was to the level of direct threats and so on. Our reaction was immediate, and at the moment of all this we were the initiators of the UNO, TsABEZ discussion on this matter. But the question is that the United States of America is also a permanent member of the Security Council, it has the right of the century. Second point, excuse me, why do you think that this was some kind of invention of theirs? Didn’t they do this before? They did this all the time, they do it at every historical turn, they do it in different ways, another conversation… What did they do with the same Saddam Hussein?.. I will give you another example. A man who had incredible authority in his country, in his region, is Gaddafi. This was the leader of Libya. Should I remind you what they did to him?.. Do you understand when they lived differently? 70s, 80s, 90s. Yes, in any era you will find something similar… You consider, for example, the use of napalm by American troops in Vietnam as a smaller fact or less significant there than what they are doing now. Yes, this is from the same series. Only then did people die there, civilians. Can you imagine what napalm is?.. This is a fire that burns everything around, leaving nothing alive around. What about Hiroshima and Nagasaki? This is all from the same series! This is all from the same series of not absolute irresponsibility, but permissiveness. That’s it. That’s why they have always done this, and the only time they don’t do this is when they know what to answer for it,” a representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs provided historical information.

Maria Zakharova clarified: “Only when you, we, all together, someone else, creates their life and protects it in a way that makes it physically impossible, then they won’t do it. But in other cases, they will. And they will do it when and how it suits them. This is exactly what we were talking about. It’s just that some time ago, for some people—for some, five years ago, for some, ten, for some, even two years ago, for others, a month and a half ago—there were doubts about whether we were telling the truth, or whether we were dramatizing it, or whether it was not true… No, it’s important. It’s important to understand how to build our lives so that this kind of thing isn’t done to us.”

We remind you that other important issues were also discussed at the meeting: relations with China, the importance of preserving historical memory, the degradation of Western society, and the specifics of public service.
