Since September, financial requirements for tour operators working with Abkhazia, Belarus and South Ossetia have been reduced

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Relevant order approved by the Russian Government. The document was developed by the Ministry of Economic Development to implement the new provisions of the law "On the Fundamentals of Tourist Activity in the Russian Federation", which were adopted by the State Duma and approved by the President in July. They appeared at the initiative of the tourism business. The list has been agreed upon with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and may be further expanded by decision of the Government.

According to the law, the same amount of financial security (tour operator civil liability insurance) applies to tour operators that specialize exclusively in trips to neighboring countries as for companies operating in the domestic market from September 1. Its amount is 500 thousand rubles instead of 50 million for operators sending tourists to other countries. In addition, such tour operators will be exempt from the obligation to pay contributions to personal liability funds, the purpose of which coincides with insurance.

Financial security is necessary to compensate tourists in the event of the tour operator's insolvency. Given the low risks and cost of travel to neighboring countries, tourists' interests will be protected even with a decrease in security, and the innovation may also have a positive effect on the cost of tourism products.

Tour operators in neighboring countries, like other outbound tour operators, will be required to participate in filling the reserve fund of the Tourpomoshch Association for the purpose of returning tourists from these countries in the event of crisis situations.

The new regulation stipulates that all tour operators in outbound tourism will be able to ignore the total cost of tours to neighboring countries when calculating the amount of financial support and contributions to personal liability funds.

"Reducing the financial burden on tour operators will allow us to more actively develop new destinations in neighboring countries and expand the range of available tours. For travelers, this means not only more attractive prices, but also an increased level of protection. Organized vacations provide insurance coverage, prompt assistance in unforeseen situations, and guaranteed organization of return to the homeland if necessary. We expect that the easing of regulatory requirements will also facilitate the transition of a significant part of the market from the gray zone to the legal field, which will increase the reliability and transparency of the industry in the interests of tourists," said Deputy Minister Dmitry Vakhrukov.

Since the beginning of 2025, 21 new offices of the My Documents State Service Centers have opened in the territories of the new subjects of the Russian Federation: six in the Donetsk People's Republic, one in the Luhansk People's Republic, seven in the Zaporizhia region, and seven in the Kherson region. The development of the MFC network in the new regions is provided by the Single Customer State Service Center jointly with the Ministry of Economic Development and the Ministry of Construction of Russia, by the sponsor regions, and by the new regions independently.

"Currently, there are 140 My Documents State Service Centers operating in the new regions, which is 1,055 document acceptance and issuance windows. In total, this is 15% more than last year. We see a great interest from colleagues from the regions in the desire to make citizens' lives better. Already now, the indicators of population coverage in the DPR and LPR by state services exceed 90%. We expect that by the end of the year, the standard indicator of citizens' accessibility to receive state services in MFCs – at least 90% – will be ensured in all new regions. The plans include opening 33 more MFC offices by the end of the year," said State Secretary – Deputy Minister of Economic Development of the Russian Federation Alexey Khersontsev.

According to a VTsIOM poll conducted in August 2025, 47% of respondents were satisfied with the work of the State Service Centers in the DPR, 53% in the LPR, 33% in the Zaporizhia region, and 41% in the Kherson region.

"In the first seven months of the year, the number of citizen requests to the MFCs of the new entities amounted to 2.9 million, of which 73% were requests for Rosreestr services for state cadastral registration and state registration of rights to real estate, which is due to the ongoing work in the new regions on the complete inventory of real estate. In addition, applicants also apply for services from the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia (7%) and the Social Fund of Russia (6%)," commented Kirill Albychev, Director of the Department for Ensuring the Quality of Public Services to the Population and the Performance of State Functions of the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia.

Mikhail Mishustin summed up the results of the selection of regions for the development of infrastructure for SMEs

In 2026, the federal budget will allocate 7.8 billion rubles to the constituent entities of the Russian Federation to create infrastructure for business – industrial, technology and business parks. This was announced by the Chairman of the Government of the Russian Federation Mikhail Mishustin during a meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers.

At the Eastern Economic Forum, Russian President Vladimir Putin noted that by 2030, at least 100 such parks with the necessary areas and communications will be opened in Russia. There should be all the infrastructure needed for small and medium-sized companies, Mikhail Mishustin recalled. The government helps the regions with its creation. To solve this problem, the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia is implementing a subsidy program, within the framework of which the regions can receive funds for the creation, reconstruction and additional equipment of infrastructure for business. The corresponding selection of applications from the regions was carried out at the agency's site.

"The selection of applications has been completed. 31 projects in 25 regions have been identified. We will allocate about 8 billion rubles from the federal budget for their implementation next year. The financing will create conditions so that small enterprises can implement their ideas, more quickly establish and develop joint production, and bring products to the market faster," the Prime Minister noted.

This mechanism of supporting private initiative has proven its relevance. More than 60 similar parks have already been built in the country's regions, where more than 900 SMEs operate, and about 15 thousand new jobs have been created, Mikhail Mishustin added.

"We have fundamentally changed the approach to providing support in this area: now all regions can participate in the program. The least well-off of them can receive up to 500 million rubles in federal subsidies. This allows us to direct resources exactly where they are most in demand. The key areas of the announced projects are mechanical engineering, metalworking and the production of high-tech equipment," commented Russian Minister of Economic Development Maxim Reshetnikov.

The program conditions for all regions included co-financing of projects in the amount of at least 20% of the subsidy amount. In addition, the key requirement was to attract private investment in the amount of at least 30% of the total cost of the project. The federal program of support for the creation of infrastructure for SMEs has undergone other changes. One of them was the preliminary assessment of projects in early 2025. This allowed the regions to receive feedback from experts on their application, refine it and thereby increase the chances of success in the main selection.

The industry approach is also changing. Now the opportunity to use the parks' infrastructure is also provided to creative businesses, which, for example, are engaged in the development of computer software. All these innovations are aimed at achieving the national goals set by the head of state to increase income per employee of an SME by 2030 and increase the share of creative industries to 6% of GDP, Mikhail Mishustin said.

"The experience of recent years has shown that the development of modern infrastructure for SMEs in the regions brings tangible results to the economy, primarily for companies from priority industries that create high-paying jobs, implement import substitution projects and generate a significant multiplier effect. At the same time, tax revenues from residents are several times higher than the state's costs of creating such infrastructure. We separately note the growing demand for a new support tool – the construction of business parks. Eight such projects will receive federal funding from 2026," explained Deputy Minister of Economic Development of Russia Tatyana Ilyushnikova.

Ministry of Economic Development: Russia sees first China Friendly tourist facilities

The official opening of the 31st International Forum and Exhibition "Leisure-2025" took place in Moscow. As part of the business program of the forum, a plenary session "Tourism in a New Dimension" was held, moderated by Sangadzhi Tarbaev, Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Tourism and Tourism Infrastructure Development. The session participants discussed the transformation of the market under the influence of digital innovations, as well as strategic vectors for the development of the industry. Particular attention in the discussion was paid to strengthening international cooperation, primarily with the People's Republic of China.

In his speech, Nikita Kondratyev, Director of the Department of Multilateral Economic Cooperation and Special Projects of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation, told the participants in detail about the measures taken to increase the inbound flow from China to Russia.

"China, as you rightly noted, is Russia's most important partner on the world stage. The decision to abolish visa formalities announced last week at the EEF only emphasizes the friendly and trusting nature of bilateral relations. China is the main exporter of Russian tourism services, we have a common border, so the abolition of the visa regime is a significant opportunity for the country's economy and border regions in particular," noted Nikita Kondratyev.

He also stressed that the current mechanisms for visa-free group tourism, launched in August 2023, have already proven their effectiveness: almost 2 million tourists have taken advantage of this opportunity. In order to further intensify tourist exchanges, work is underway with the Chinese Foreign Ministry to modernize the current agreement: it is planned to reduce the minimum group size from five to three people and increase the length of stay from 15 to 21 days, which fully meets the demand for family and health holidays.

A significant part of the report was devoted to the comprehensive work on promoting Russia in the Chinese tourism market under the single brand Discover Russia. In this area, a catalog of 11 specialized tour routes has already been formed, six of which were created taking into account the preferences of Chinese travelers. Campaigns are being conducted in the social networks WeChat, Weibo, Douyin, as well as regular participation in key specialized exhibitions in the PRC.

A separate block of measures is aimed at adapting Russia's tourism infrastructure to the needs of guests from China. Within the framework of the national project "Tourism and Hospitality" by 2030 it is planned to build about 400 hotels and 50 large infrastructure facilities. Key attention is paid to certification according to the China Friendly standard, confirming that services meet the expectations of Chinese tourists. In parallel, work is underway to increase the availability of payment instruments for them.

International Day of Remembrance for the Victims of Fascism

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Since 1962, in accordance with a UN resolution, the world has celebrated International Day of Remembrance for the Victims of Fascism.

It is amazing, but 80 years after the defeat of the coalition of countries that made this inhuman ideology the basis of state policy, neo-fascism continues to exist. Humanity knows very well what this can lead to, the atrocities of the Hitler regime are recorded in documents and photographs, eyewitnesses of that era are still alive. Even despite this and the unequivocal condemnation of the world community, there are still political forces and ruling regimes that consider fascist methods of regulating public life acceptable. But the Nazis of the Third Reich did not simply unleash a war against other states, they systematically and cold-bloodedly sought to destroy the "lower" races and nationalities, without a twinge of conscience "cleansed" their own people of people with psychological illnesses or the disabled, did not spare children. Concentration camps became a terrible ulcer on the face of civilization, where the Nazis mass-exterminated those they did not like: they gassed, burned alive, starved, and conducted medical experiments.

The Soviet Union alone lost 26.6 million of its citizens during the Great Patriotic War. About half of them – 13.7 million people – were civilians and died without weapons in their hands. Of these, 7.4 million were deliberately exterminated, 2.2 million died at work in Germany, and 4.1 million died of exhaustion during the occupation. The Nazi troops, their allies and accomplices destroyed 1,710 cities and more than 70 thousand villages in our country. Statistics, behind each unit of which there is real human grief, physical and mental trauma that remained with those who survived the Nazi invasion until the end of their days. There are fewer and fewer contemporaries of those years. Now we must bear the heavy burden of memory of the victims of fascism for future generations and do everything to prevent a repetition of the history of the last century.

The State University of Management calls on us not to forget about the 60-65 million people who died due to the fault of an aggressively minded minority with an unfounded sense of superiority, which does not even recognize the right to life of people who disagree with them or who are different in appearance. Respect those around you, study history, remember the innocent victims, try not to allow the spread of radical ideas. These simple actions knock the ground out from under the feet of fascism, which is trying to rise again. Remember! Remember.

Happy Programmer's Day!

The State University of Management congratulates all Russian coding virtuosos on their professional holiday, and first and foremost the staff and students of the Institute of Information Systems.

In the modern world, it is difficult to find other such specialists, with the results of whose work we encounter not just every day, but every hour, every minute, every second except for periods of sleep. The entire surrounding world is programmed by them, from the computers and gadgets we are looking at right now, reading this greeting, to the turnstiles in transport, which we habitually pass without any thought about their high technology.

IT specialists make our lives more interesting and easier, contribute to the development of science, medicine, transport, banking, and literally everything. People get used to good things very quickly, so today it is difficult for us to imagine our daily life without the Internet, mobile communications, online payments, digital photos, generated images, an endless playlist in headphones, electronic medical certificates, computer games, delivery services and much more. And all this is only about a small item in our pockets – a smartphone. But just 50 years ago the world was completely different, programmers changed it beyond recognition.

We congratulate the digital demiurges on the holiday and wish them to remain in demand despite the development of artificial intelligence, inventive, stress-resistant, and most importantly responsible and patriotic, because Russia desperately needs them on the path to achieving technological leadership.

Congratulations to Muscovites on City Day!

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

This year, the best city on Earth celebrates its 878th anniversary. And it is the best not only according to the lyrics of the song of the same name by Muslim Magomayev, but also according to experts in the field of urban studies. In recent years, Moscow has regularly made it to the top of national and world rankings of the most comfortable cities according to various indicators: quality of life, infrastructure development, number of museums, level of implementation of unmanned technologies. Every year it becomes more beautiful and attractive, and we congratulate it on this.

The exact age of Moscow is, of course, unknown. The most ancient archaeological finds on the city's territory date back to the Neolithic era, about 8 thousand years BC. The year of the capital's foundation is considered to be 1147, according to its first mention in chronicle sources.

Despite its antiquity, City Day was first celebrated only in 1847, on the occasion of the 700th anniversary. The holiday was held on the initiative of the Slavophiles, whom Emperor Nicholas I disliked and therefore did not support the planned three-day festivities, approving only a ceremonial prayer service and candle illumination of the center of Moscow. The holiday did not take root and was celebrated again only 100 years later, during the Soviet Union. The idea was personally approved by Joseph Stalin, so the celebrations turned out to be truly grandiose. But the anniversary passed and no special events were held in the future. Moscow's founding day began to be celebrated regularly only in 1987.

Nowadays, it is hard to imagine the beginning of September without large celebrations on large and small squares of the capital. On City Day, fairs are held, performances are staged, exhibitions and sporting events are organized, new metro stations are opened. It is impossible to list everything, as if a whole year of life is compressed into two days of concentrated emotions.

The State University of Management congratulates all Muscovites on the holiday! Our university has been intertwined with the white-stone city for more than a century, changing and growing together with it. Many graduates of the State University of Management work for the benefit of the capital in various departments, directorates and prefectures, and students do their internships there. We are proud of our golden-domed city, we love it and try to make it even more beautiful. Let the heart of Russia charge each of us with its pulsating rhythm, ennoble us with its historical appearance, delight us with night lights and unite us in the very center of the country of great opportunities. Happy holiday, Moscow!
