The first RAEX university ranking in sustainable development has been published. Seven Russian universities are included. RUDN University is among the top seven, and our university was awarded the AA rating, demonstrating a very high level of sustainability performance.

In compiling the ranking, the RAEX agency assessed the quality of education, scientific research, the compliance of university practices with ESG standards, and their work in popularizing knowledge.

The results of the first ranking were presented at a press conference at TASS. According to Elena Apasova, Vice Rector for Strategic Communications, in terms of environmental performance and care, RUDN University has reduced its dormitory electricity consumption by 18.3% over six years. 250 waste collection points have been installed on campus, and over the past few years, students and staff have collected 160 tons of waste paper for recycling.

The university also cares about the living conditions and health of its students and staff. This year, a family floor was opened in the first dormitory block. The student family rooms are equipped with all necessary furniture, including washing machines in the bathrooms.

"RUDN University also has a program called 'Healthy Student, Healthy Employee,' which offers free health screenings with specialists in men's and women's health. Starting this year, they can also take a free course of 10 consultations with a psychologist. Furthermore, university employees have the opportunity to receive an interest-free loan of 350,000 to 750,000 rubles for one to two years," says Elena Apasova.

And, of course, RUDN University has a high rate of scientific publications. Over the past year, the university has produced approximately 2,000 scientific papers on all 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The largest number of papers are devoted to the SDGs "Good Health and Well-Being," "Zero Hunger," and "Clean Water and Sanitation."

BEIJING, Dec. 3 (Xinhua) — China continuously strengthened support for inclusive financing for small and micro enterprises during the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-2025), with the average annual growth rate of inclusive loans for such businesses exceeding 20 percent during the period.

Since China formally launched its inclusive finance policy in 2013, access to inclusive finance for small and micro enterprises has improved significantly.

Official data shows that the volume of inclusive loans for small and micro enterprises reached 35.77 trillion yuan (about 5.06 trillion US dollars) as of the end of October this year.

China has also further reduced the cost of inclusive finance, as such loans primarily serve small and micro enterprises, sole proprietors, and farmers, who often face difficulties in obtaining financing due to a lack of collateral and limited risk-bearing capacity.

In June 2025, the interest rate on newly issued inclusive loans for small and micro enterprises was 3.48 percent, which is approximately 2 percentage points lower than the level fixed at the end of the 13th Five-Year Plan (2016-2020).

In the implementation of the next five-year plan, China will continue to strengthen efforts to develop inclusive finance, as outlined in the CPC Central Committee's Proposals for the 15th Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development (2026-2030), released in October. -0-

Chinese researchers have developed a new therapy to cure HIV.

Beijing, December 3 (Xinhua) — A research team from Wuhan University of Science and Technology (WUST) recently developed a new system for targeted delivery of gene editing tools to cells. According to the study, these tools can precisely locate the HIV virus and fragment its genome, thereby achieving a functional cure, the China Science Daily reported on Tuesday.

Current HIV treatments include the widely used cocktail therapy, as well as newer approaches such as cell immunotherapy and gene therapy. Cocktail therapy aims to maximally suppress viral replication, improving quality of life and patient survival. However, it cannot completely eradicate the virus.

Cellular immunotherapy can only identify and eliminate cells where the virus is actively replicating, leaving dormant infected cells unaffected. Existing gene therapy methods, particularly those using adeno-associated viruses as delivery vectors, have several drawbacks, including poor targeting and toxicity due to excessive dosages.

The results of the WUST study, led by Gu Chaojiang, were published in the journal Molecular Therapy. The team's EMT-Cas12a method is based on the use of modified exosomes for targeted delivery of the CRISPR-Cas12a gene editing tool.

Exosomes are tiny vesicles secreted by cells that carry biological information, such as proteins and RNA, and act as messengers between cells. Cas12a, often called "gene scissors," is a gene-editing tool capable of precisely fragmenting DNA.

The new therapy uses exosomes to deliver Cas12a into cells to precisely target the HIV virus, including latent HIV, and fragment its genome, achieving a functional cure for AIDS. It offers advantages such as high targeting capability, a high level of safety, and the ability to perform multiple fragments together.

In experiments on HIV-infected mice and blood samples taken from AIDS patients, the therapy demonstrated powerful viral clearance and immune reconstitution capabilities. In one experimental group, complete viral clearance was achieved in two out of three mice.

The therapy has passed medical ethics review and has moved into clinical trials, the researchers said. -0-

Moscow, December 3 (Xinhua) — Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov met here on Tuesday, calling for the defense of the victory in World War II.

Wang Yi, also a member of the Politburo of the CPC Central Committee, noted that under the strategic leadership of Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin, Chinese-Russian relations have reached a high level, broad coverage, and high-quality development.

He said that this year, the two heads of state held two in-depth exchanges of views on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of Victory in World War II, charted the course for the future development of bilateral relations, and brought stability and certainty to the world.

Wang Yi noted that both sides agreed to firmly uphold the achievements of the Victory in World War II, resolutely oppose any regressive actions that attempt to whitewash colonial aggression, and call for justice and fairness.

As permanent members of the UN Security Council and countries bound by a comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination in the new era, China and Russia should continue coordination and cooperation to resolutely suppress provocative actions by Japanese far-right forces that undermine regional peace and stability and attempt to carry out remilitarization, Wang Yi said.

According to him, visa-free entry into Russia for Chinese citizens is a clear manifestation of the comprehensive partnership and strategic cooperation in the new era and will facilitate travel between the two countries, as well as promote exchanges and cooperation in various fields.

Noting that next year marks the 30th anniversary of the establishment of Chinese-Russian partnership and strategic cooperation, as well as the 25th anniversary of the signing of the Treaty of Good-Neighborliness, Friendship and Cooperation between China and the Russian Federation, Wang Yi said that new historical opportunities are opening up for the development of Chinese-Russian relations.

According to S. Lavrov, the exchange of visits between the two heads of state this year has given new impetus to the further strengthening of Russian-Chinese relations of comprehensive partnership and strategic interaction.

He reaffirmed that Russia adheres to the one-China principle and firmly supports China's position on the Taiwan issue.

According to Sergey Lavrov, Russia is prepared to seize the 25th anniversary of the signing of the Russian-Chinese Treaty of Good-Neighborliness, Friendship, and Cooperation as an opportunity to intensify high-level exchanges, deepen practical cooperation, expand mutual travel, and achieve mutual benefit.

The two sides also held an in-depth exchange of views on other international and regional issues of mutual interest. –0–

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

From November 24 to 29, 2025, an international industry internship, organized by the Dynamics of Mobility Educational and Methodological Center, took place in Beijing. The event was attended by a Russian delegation, including representatives of the Russian State Research Center NAMI, as well as students, faculty, and researchers from more than ten leading Russian universities training personnel for the domestic automotive industry. Vladimir Filatov, Director of the Engineering Project Management Center, represented the State University of Management at the internship.

From the office to the climate chamber

The program included visits to key players in the Chinese automotive industry. Delegates learned about the operations of the engineering company IAT, visiting its headquarters and innovation labs, including VR zones and climate chambers, and discussing vehicle design processes. Participants also visited the Beifang Group's education center, where they learned about modern engineering training methods and equipment, and the BAIC plant, which specializes in SUV production.

The internship provided Russian specialists and students with the opportunity to gain first-hand experience with advanced technologies, production, and educational practices in the Chinese automotive industry, as well as establish professional contacts for future collaboration. The event made a significant contribution to the development of scientific, technical, and educational partnerships between Russia and China in the automotive sector.

From license to leadership

Over the past ten years, the Chinese automotive industry has made a leap from licensed production to world-class, in-house development. This reflects a global trend: technological leadership is gradually shifting toward China. The largest Chinese automakers long ago stopped copying Western designs. Today, they are developing their own architectures, platforms, and designs, demonstrating particularly strong leadership in the electric and hybrid vehicle segments, which account for nearly 60% of global sales.

The success of the Chinese auto industry is built on four powerful pillars: government and corporate support, the development of domestic battery production (CATL, CALB), flexible and locally integrated supply chains, and a rapid pace of model lineup innovation—new generations of cars appear every two to three years. Recently, our president, in an interview with Nomad TV, praised the Chinese auto industry: "Products have begun to appear in the People's Republic of China that are more competitive than European ones. The latest example is electric cars. Well, the Chinese make them better and cheaper than the Europeans. The European auto industry is simply crumbling," Vladimir Putin said. And we at the State University of Management are always ready to adopt and improve on the best global practices.

You can purchase and top up your Troika card at Moscow Metro ticket offices and ticket vending machines. This can also be done online via the Moscow Metro or Moscow Transport mobile app. Remote top-ups must be activated at any validator on board the bus.

By the capital's standards

By 2025, 25 existing commuter routes operating in the northwest and west are planned to be integrated into the Moscow transport system. This was made possible thanks to an agreement between the governments of Moscow and the Moscow region.

The schedule will be convenient and the intervals predictable. The buses will feature climate control, USB ports for charging devices, and media panels. Low-floor vehicles are suitable for transporting passengers in wheelchairs, bicycles, and strollers. Professional drivers will operate the vehicles.

Overall, at least 30 percent of existing suburban routes are planned to be integrated into the Moscow transport system by 2028. In addition to improving travel comfort, the new interconnected interregional routes will provide an additional impetus for the development of transport infrastructure in the Moscow region, including the installation of modern bus shelters, dedicated lanes, the creation of new and the reconstruction of existing transport hubs, and the combination of various modes of public transport for daily travel from the Moscow region to Moscow and back.

In accordance with the objectives of the national project Infrastructure for Life Moscow is focusing on modernizing its social and public infrastructure, including increasing the number of convenient public transportation routes and upgrading its rolling stock.
