An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak held a meeting on the issue of energy supply to consumers engaged in mining activities. It was attended by representatives of federal authorities, energy companies, public business associations and industry associations, and State Duma deputies.

The representative of the Ministry of Energy reported on the current state of regulation of energy supply for mining activities in Russia, including issues of identifying and preventing electricity consumption by miners in regions where this activity is prohibited. A number of amendments to the current legislation were proposed in order to further improve energy supply for mining. This concerns the procedure for using capacity temporarily unclaimed by miners during the period of the ban on their work, increasing liability for violating the requirements for mining cryptocurrency, and a proposal to label and certify foreign equipment for mining cryptocurrency imported into Russia. In addition, the representative of the Ministry of Energy reported on the status of the preparation of regulatory legal acts providing for the creation of a fourth category of reliability of energy supply to consumers, which takes into account the introduction of remote restriction of the consumption mode during peak loads and the threat of energy and power shortages in the region.

The head of the Federal Service for Supervision of Communications, Information Technology and Mass Media Andrey Lipov spoke about tools for identifying individuals mining cryptocurrencies by analyzing Internet traffic and electricity consumption patterns.

A representative of the Federal Tax Service reported on the number of persons registered in the relevant mining registries. This refers to entities or companies mining cryptocurrencies and to mining infrastructure operators.

Alexander Novak instructed the Ministry of Energy to finalize proposals for the introduction of the fourth category of reliability of energy consumers, and in close cooperation with regional authorities and energy companies to prepare a final proposal on the mechanism for the redistribution of released capacity when limiting mining activities in the region in order to connect socially significant consumers to power grids. The Deputy Prime Minister instructed to work out proposals to increase liability for illegal connection to power grids, theft of electricity, and violation of the ban on limiting mining activities in terms of electricity supply.

Marat Khusnullin: About 4 million trips have been recorded on the Tver bypass on the M-11 Neva highway since its opening

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The federal highway M-11 "Neva" not only provides seamless communication between Moscow and St. Petersburg, but is also part of the high-speed transport corridors "North-South" and "West-East". The Northern Bypass of Tver, which Russian President Vladimir Putin opened in July last year, became the final stage of the construction of M-11. To date, since the launch of traffic on this section, about 4 million trips have been recorded. This was reported by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.

"The opening of the northern bypass of Tver made it possible to connect the two capitals with a seamless high-speed connection, take transit transport outside the populated areas and significantly increase the comfort for drivers and passengers. In addition, the new section, which became the last link necessary for the formation of high-speed routes from north to south and from west to east of the country, gave a powerful impetus to the development of the regional economy, logistics, and auto tourism. We see that the section is deservedly popular among motorists. Since the launch of traffic on it, users have made about 4 million trips. Largely due to the opening of the northern bypass of Tver, the average daily traffic intensity along the entire M-11 Neva highway has increased by 5% since the beginning of this year. This road is under the trust management of the state company Avtodor, which celebrated its 16th anniversary since its creation. It pays special attention to the creation and development of roadside infrastructure designed to provide comfortable conditions for drivers and passengers on the road. The total length of Avtodor's high-speed roads today is about 5.5 thousand km. They give a powerful impetus to the socio-economic development of Russian regions and form important international transport corridors," said Marat Khusnullin.

The Deputy Prime Minister added that the two largest multifunctional road service zones (MFS) in the country operate on the northern bypass of Tver. The area of each of them exceeds 1.5 thousand square meters. All necessary types of services for long-distance and short-distance trips are provided here.

According to Vyacheslav Petushenko, Chairman of the Board of the state company Avtodor, the MFPs are an important part of the development of the country's transport infrastructure. In addition, thanks to a full rest on the road, drivers will be able to be more attentive behind the wheel, and this directly affects road safety.

"We are creating a comprehensive infrastructure on our road network that provides motorists with everything they need for comfortable and safe travel. Multifunctional road service zones give a powerful impetus to the development of auto tourism, become centers of economic growth in regions and points of attraction for businesses, which contributes to the creation of new jobs and affects the improvement of the quality of life of Russians. Thus, today, as part of the corridor from St. Petersburg to Yekaterinburg, 39 MFS are already operating on our highways. When traveling on our high-speed highways, motorists can rest, eat, refuel, use all the necessary services along the way and receive the necessary assistance in case of unforeseen situations," noted Vyacheslav Petushenko.

The length of the northern bypass of Tver is just over 62 km. This is a section of the road of the highest technical category with four traffic lanes, separated by traffic flows and lighting along the entire length. The permitted speed on the bypass in the summer is 130 km/h.

Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin held a meeting of the presidium (headquarters) of the Government Commission on Regional Development, where they discussed the preliminary results of the work and the implementation of indicators within the framework of the national project "Infrastructure for Life".

"On the instructions of the President, we continue to monitor housing construction as a key driver of regional development. This is important for improving the lives of citizens, stimulating the development of related industries and creating conditions for the comprehensive renewal of settlements. Despite the fact that the urban development potential is more than 463 million square meters, which is slightly higher than last year, we still see a cooling of the market. I ask all heads of regions to take personal control of this issue, to work on increasing the urban development potential, and also to work manually with each developer so that all houses are necessarily delivered on time," said Marat Khusnullin.

In terms of the implementation of key indicators, Marat Khusnullin noted the Ryazan, Saratov, Lipetsk regions, the republics of Buryatia, Bashkortostan, Tatarstan, and Perm Krai for their high results. Reports were made by the governor of the Ryazan region Pavel Malkov, the head of the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic Kazbek Kokov.

Marat Khusnullin also congratulated the headquarters participants on the extension of the federal highway M-12 "Vostok" to Yekaterinburg. On July 16, 2025, Russian President Vladimir Putin launched traffic on the new section of the federal highway M-12 "Vostok" from the city of Dyurtyuli to the village of Achit. Now the route between St. Petersburg and Yekaterinburg can be covered in an average of 22 hours – almost twice as fast, and the road from Yekaterinburg to Moscow has become 198 km shorter.

"The new section allowed us to form a high-speed corridor without a single traffic light from St. Petersburg to Yekaterinburg. Travel time to Moscow will be less than 16 hours. At the same time, residents of not only the Urals, but also Siberia will feel a significant acceleration in travel. For Tyumen, Omsk, and Novosibirsk, this entire corridor will also be significant in increasing mobility and saving time. Many thanks to the builders for the excellent facility and to everyone who took part in its implementation," said Marat Khusnullin.

The issue of road safety was discussed at the headquarters. The Deputy Prime Minister noted that it is necessary to strengthen cooperation with relevant departments, take all measures that will help reduce road accidents, and pay special attention to pedestrian infrastructure and the prevention of road accidents involving children.

During the meeting, preliminary results of the application campaign for financing projects within the framework of treasury infrastructure loans (TIL), which are being launched this year as a continuation of the mechanism of infrastructure budget loans (IBL), were summed up. The curator of the TIL is the Ministry of Construction of Russia, and the operator is the public-law company "Territorial Development Fund". TILs will serve the same purpose – improving the quality of life of people.

In his report, Minister of Construction and Housing and Public Utilities Irek Fayzullin spoke about the current status of reviewing regional applications for infrastructure projects planned for implementation using treasury infrastructure loans. "The use of treasury infrastructure loans opens up additional opportunities for implementing housing and public utilities projects and socially significant infrastructure projects in the regions. The activity of 89 regions of the country in the application campaign for the provision of treasury infrastructure loans clearly demonstrates the demand and effectiveness of this mechanism in solving problems of improving the quality of life of Russian citizens, including within the framework of the national project "Infrastructure for Life", – said Irek Fayzullin.

77 regions submitted applications for housing and communal services limits for a total of 183.99 billion.

"The Territorial Development Fund is actively accepting applications for financing infrastructure projects within the framework of the CIC. The regions mainly plan to use these funds for the modernization of housing and communal services, as well as the implementation of social, road transport, and tourism infrastructure projects. The total volume of treasury infrastructure loans for housing and communal services is 292.79 billion rubles. CICs are a continuation of the infrastructure budget loan program, which has already proven its effectiveness and demand among the regions. To date, thanks to the IBC, 507 objects and events have been completed since 2022," commented Vasily Kupyzin, General Director of the Territorial Development Fund.

As reported by Marat Khusnullin, members of the government commission approved a number of applications for the implementation of projects within the framework of the CIC: the construction of the Bolshoy Smolensky Bridge in St. Petersburg with a CIC volume of 15 billion rubles, the purchase of public transport (buses) in the Kirov region with a CIC volume of 1.4 billion rubles, the reconstruction of the Smolensk-Severny airfield and the renewal of the housing and utilities infrastructure in the Smolensk region with a CIC volume of 3.335 billion rubles.

These standards have become mandatory for competitive selection in world-class campuses under construction.

Valery Falkov said that in order to increase awareness of support measures, universities have launched a "single window" format for young families, mothers and fathers with children. In addition, work is underway with the Russian Ministry of Digital Development and Communications and the Analytical Center of the Government of the Russian Federation to create a Navigator of support measures for student families on the State Services portal.

Participants of the plenary session familiarized themselves with stands with information about how higher education institutions help young families. Five universities were represented at the stands, including the State University of Management. Rector of the State University of Management Vladimir Stroyev spoke about measures to support young families and projects being implemented, in particular about the educational and enlightening course for students "Architecture of Relationships" and the 2nd International Scientific Conference "Family in Modern Russian Society" held in the spring.

"The State University of Management will significantly expand its support measures for student families in 2025. Today, we have more than 100 students with children. We have 2 mother-and-child rooms for them, and in the 4th quarter of this year, we plan to open 2 more such rooms, including as part of the construction of a new student coworking space. The total amount of payments provided for families with children is growing every year. Among other support measures, there is a special remote work program for pregnant employees in the first 3 months, an adaptation system for returning to work after maternity leave, and the possibility of remote work for family teachers," said Vladimir Stroyev.

The student conductor team "Provorny" has once again set off to explore the remote regions of our country during the work season. The polytechnicians work as conductors for the Federal Passenger Company and make trips to Moscow, Smolensk, Velikiye Luki, Anapa, Kislovodsk, Yeysk, Taganrog. They also work on the international route to Sukhum.

The season of guides is very specific. Participants and candidates are divided into small groups, on average six people, and work under the guidance of two experienced team leaders. This year, the student team "Provorny" formed five teams.

The team "Complivit Egor Vnukov" visited Smolensk. During the trip, young candidates were able to use in practice all the knowledge they had received during their training and demonstrated their skills in real conditions.

“During the long downtime, we explored the city center, visited the House of the Opposite, and looked at local attractions. We also found out who would climb the mountain faster, tried berry punch and mocha from an old machine. We held two commissariats: “Your Game” with exciting tasks and “Trend by Colors,” where each participant received their own color and created photos with it. As a souvenir of Smolensk, we took away a toy that we called Not Hehe. Now it will accompany us on every trip,” the guys shared.

Among the SPbPU brigades, one team stands out, which participates in the All-Russian Labor Project. Its goal is to improve the level of professional activity of conductors and diversify their leisure time in their free time. The VTP brigade includes ten of the most active polytechnics. The leadership was taken over by Ulyana Shtol, Egor Samokhvalov and Dima Afanasyev, who will be responsible for organizing events and coordinating the work.

"Provorny" competes with 15 teams from different regions of Russia. During the season, the guys face the following tasks: to achieve high performance indicators, including the volume of products sold and the number of hours worked, to conduct active commissar activities, to hold events for passengers. In addition, throughout the summer, many different events are held: Spartakiad, competitions for the best team corner and in the media, "Miss and Mister VTP", a creative festival and others. And in each of them, the polytechnicians will try to show maximum results.
