Gorky Film Studio, part of the Moscow film cluster, is reviving its own film production. On November 27, "Letter to Santa Claus" will be released. This family film has a New Year's spirit and a strong adventure element. The main character, lawyer Pyotr Bezuglov, finds himself at the epicenter of incredible events after his childhood wishes come true. Rivers of soda and mountains of sweets, animated soldiers, and Natalia Oreiro as his wife—these are just some of the surprises.

The characters in the Gorky Film Studio film find themselves in dangerous situations and engage in hand-to-hand combat. Director Kirill Kuzin and stunt coordinator Sergei Ryabtsev discussed how they created the most daring scenes of the New Year's comedy, produced with the support of the Cinema Fund, the Moscow Government, and Moskino.

Virtuoso tricks

The main character, played by actor Anton Filipenko, engages in a fight with Shaolin monks. The spectacular fight scene proved to be a significant challenge for those unbeknownst to us—the stuntmen.

"These are the monks of boys' fantasies. After watching the films, children would begin to imitate their signature moves. Our Petya dreamed of such fights too. But he lacked the courage, plus his dad wouldn't let him practice hand-to-hand combat. And now his dream has come true. Anton Filipenko, of course, had to undergo several training sessions before filming, as well as prepare for the flying and zip-lining. But the secret of this scene lies in the well-chosen stunt doubles. Both Anton and the monks, represented by Anatoly Tsoi and Azamat Nigmanov, performed admirably, but only until the moment when certain complex movements were required. Then, professional stuntmen replaced them on set," shared Kirill Kuzin.

Complex stunts are usually conceived and developed by a creative team, including the writers and stunt performers, who often offer interesting solutions. The team often resorts to tricks to replace actors in the shot. For example, in the scene with the monks, wide-brimmed hats were crucial. They prevent the audience from seeing the faces of the fighters and from realizing they are stunt doubles.

"Many of Russia's best stuntmen participated in the filming of 'Letter to Santa Claus,' and I think they did an A+. There were some challenging moments, but we pulled it off. For example, in our country, there are only a few stuntmen who can move and fight with the agility required for the Shaolin-style fight scene. I invited them to the project. Artem Yudin and Alexey Minaev performed the fights, and cinematographer Sher Dzhuraev not only filmed but also essentially choreographed the scene," explained Sergey Ryabtsev.

Directors have long since gotten used to the idea that some actors want to perform their own stunts. However, if there's a risk of injury, the work is still entrusted to professionals. An injury sustained by an actor can halt filming.

A stuntman is a shadow of the hero. They take on the difficult elements of a scene, helping to create a vivid image of the character, adds Sergey Ryabtsev. The stuntman performs the tricks effectively, and the actor receives credit because the film crew strives to make them the focus of attention. For example, in "Letter to Santa Claus," viewers are treated to a dramatic fall by Ivan Okhlobystin, down a ladder. It appears as if the actor himself is falling, but in reality, it was a stunt double.

As Sergey Ryabtsev emphasizes, the main principles of stunt production in film are beauty, impact, and, of course, safety. In addition to filming "Letter to Santa Claus," he has recently worked on several other projects for family audiences. In these films, stunts are performed not only by adults but also by children. Young athletes usually replace the young actors on screen.

The Incredible Adventures of Petr Bezuglov

In this New Year's comedy, the protagonist, Pyotr Bezuglov, is a lawyer, a serious man who has forgotten what it means to dream. His life is one of endless workdays and rules. But one day, his son, Vanya, discovers his father's childhood letters to Father Frost and sends them through a magical mailbox. Overnight, Pyotr's world is turned upside down: all his childhood fantasies overtake him—from rivers of soda and living toys to the appearance of Natalia Oreiro herself, the heroine of his youth. To stop the chaos and save his family, Pyotr must embark on an incredible journey, find that very mailbox, and cancel his wishes before it's too late.

Starring Natalia Oreiro, Ivan Okhlobystin, Anton Filipenko, Kristina Asmus, Ekaterina Temnova, Konstantin Karimov, Miron Provorov, Anatoly Tsoi, Azamat Nigmanov, Dima Bilan, Evelina Bledans, Igor Zhizhikin, Vladimir Sterzhakov, Zoya Berber, Roman Popov, Vladimir Simonov and other actors.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The editorial team of Molodezh Moskvy, a Russian developer of solutions based on neural networks and robotics, and a radio station are launching the project "Nik: Robot Discoverer." It will combine media and science with cutting-edge artificial intelligence technologies and teach an anthropomorphic robot the basics of journalism.

"This is a significant experiment for our youth editorial team. We want to understand how modern technologies can expand journalism's capabilities and help us engage with the urban environment in new ways. Robot Nick will allow us to look at familiar processes from a different perspective and explore new formats for engaging with our audiences. We are confident that this experience will yield valuable insights and ideas for future projects," said Margarita Savinkina, head of the "Youth of Moscow" project.

The robot Nick is equipped with speech recognition, computer vision, and voice synthesis systems. This allows him to communicate with people, analyze his surroundings, and film reports. The robot will walk the streets of Moscow, visit parks, museums, and public spaces, test city services such as car sharing, ride the metro, and share his discoveries in video reports. Viewers will see Nick learn not only to collect information but also to understand emotions, context, and the atmosphere of the city, and interact with people in real time.

"For DFM Radio, working with an anthropomorphic robot is an opportunity to take a fresh look at the interaction between humans, technology, and media. We see how artificial intelligence is becoming part of the modern media process, helping to create new formats and expand the boundaries of traditional broadcasting. Robot Nick will continue Russian Media Group's work to integrate traditional radio and digital tools," noted Dmitry Mednikov, Managing Director of Russian Media Group.

The project's goal is to demonstrate how artificial intelligence can expand the capabilities of journalism and become a new research tool. Nick will collect data, create interactive content, and analyze the urban environment, complementing human work in areas where speed, accuracy, and technological advancement are essential. The experiment combines a scientific approach with live media coverage. Videos, reports, broadcasts, and interactive formats transform the research into a true urban quest, where viewers rediscover Moscow with Nick.

Neuroproduction, a Russian company specializing in neural network and robotics solutions, is responsible for the technological aspects of the experiment. Its experts are assisting in the development of neural network modules, recognition systems, multimodal content, and audiovisual generation.

The editorial board of "Youth of Moscow" works with the support of the "Youth of Moscow" project of the city Committee on Public Relations and Youth PolicyThe editorial partner is the media holding "Russian Media Group".

Even more opportunities for young Muscovites can be found on the portal Youth of Moscow and on the project pages in social networks.

Comment: The Economist shouldn't be surprised by the China survey results

A recent global survey on attitudes toward China and the United States published by the British magazine The Economist "sent shock waves through the West." The study, which focused on views of China and the United States, surveyed 32,000 people in 32 countries.

The results showed that, compared to last year, the share of respondents who support China as the preferred "leading power" in the world increased by 11 percentage points. This preference increased in all regions covered by the survey, including the United States. The Economist stated bluntly that "this is perhaps the most surprising thing." The survey also found that the younger the respondents, the more likely they are to welcome China's leadership.

Surveys from other institutions also confirmed this result.

For example, a survey of 41 countries and regions conducted by the American company Morning Consult found that as of the end of May this year, China's global favorability rating was 8.8, higher than that of the United States (-1.5).

A report published earlier this year by the Global Times Research Institute, based on a survey in 46 countries, found that nearly 60% of people in foreign countries rated their overall impression of China as "good," while more than 30% had a neutral attitude, with young people showing more interest, sympathy, and appreciation for China.

The results of this series of surveys, taken together, outline a clear trajectory of steady growth in China's international image and its influence globally.

According to various global surveys, two trends are becoming increasingly noticeable. First, countries in the Global South are more sympathetic to China; second, young people generally view China more favorably.

The reason for this is that China continues to provide the world with global public goods, such as the Belt and Road Initiative and the Four Global Initiatives, all of which bring real development opportunities to countries around the world.

Landmark projects such as the China-Laos Railway, the Jakarta-Bandung Railway, the Budapest-Belgrade Railway, and the Port of Piraeus have created 420,000 jobs in participating countries and lifted nearly 40 million people out of poverty, becoming a powerful engine for promoting global connectivity and shared development.

Young people gave China higher ratings, indicating a steady improvement in China's global image. As the younger generation gradually becomes the mainstream, they are developing a more open and positive perception of China, including its development model, innovative capabilities, and cultural charm.

November 25, 2025 Humanitarian aid

UN humanitarian agencies and their partners continue to provide assistance to people displaced from El Fasher, the capital of North Darfur state, but their needs far outstrip available resources.

The International Organization for Migration (IOM) reports that more than 106,000 people have fled El Fasher and surrounding villages since the town was captured by the Rapid Intervention Forces a month ago.

UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs Tom Fletcher, who recently visited Tawila, emphasized the need to ensure unimpeded access for humanitarian organizations to civilians wherever they are. Tawila is a town 60 kilometers from El Fasher, where many displaced people arrive.

"Our humanitarian partners in the city report facing significant challenges in their work, including funding shortages and insecurity on key access routes," UN spokesman Stephane Dujarric said at a briefing in New York.

“Our humanitarian colleagues report that medical facilities are overwhelmed and mobile clinics are struggling to cope with the growing number of patients with injuries, acute malnutrition and respiratory infections,” he added.

Dujarric also reported ongoing violence in other parts of Darfur. Doctors Without Borders announced today that for the second time this year, it had been forced to scale back its support operations at a hospital in Zalingei, Central Darfur, to ensure the safety of its staff.

A week ago, a Sudanese Ministry of Health employee was shot dead outside a hospital, and four other employees were wounded.

Military action continues to threaten civilians in the Kordofan region and force families to flee their homes. The IOM reports that more than 600 people fled two villages in South Kordofan state on Saturday.

“We reiterate our call for the protection of civilians across Sudan and for safe and unimpeded access for the delivery of vital aid, and we call on donors to increase funding to meet the growing needs in Darfur, Kordofan and other parts of Sudan,” Dujarric said.

Nigeria: Hundreds of people kidnapped in northern Nigeria amid rising insurgency

November 25, 2025 Human rights

The UN is calling on Nigerian authorities to investigate a wave of kidnappings in the country, where attacks by insurgent groups are on the rise. According to the UN Human Rights Office (OHCHR), at least 402 people, mostly schoolchildren, have been abducted since November 17 in four states in the central and northern regions of the country – Niger, Kebbi, Kwara, and Borno. Only 88 have reportedly been released or managed to escape.

A Call for Justice

"We are appalled by the recent spate of mass kidnappings in central and northern Nigeria," OHCHR Representative Tamin Al-Khitan said in Geneva. "We call on Nigerian authorities at all levels to take legal action to ensure such heinous attacks are stopped and those responsible are brought to justice."

The OHCHR stressed that the authorities must ensure the safe return of all detainees and prevent further abductions.

Growing hunger and security threats

The rise in rebel attacks threatens stability in the region and provokes famine, the World Food Programme (WFP) has warned.

According to the latest data, nearly 35 million people are projected to face acute food insecurity during the 2026 seasonal shortage period—June to August. This is the highest level ever recorded in the country.

Since the beginning of the year, rebel attacks have intensified, according to the UN. The al-Qaeda-linked Jamaat Nusra al-Islam wal-Muslimeen reportedly carried out its first attack in Nigeria last month, while the Islamic State in West Africa Province (ISIS) is seeking to expand its influence throughout the Sahel region.

"The situation for local communities is dire due to repeated attacks and economic hardship," said David Stevenson, WFP's representative in Nigeria. "If we fail to provide families with food and prevent the food insecurity from worsening, growing desperation could fuel instability. Rebel groups are exploiting hunger to expand their influence, creating a security threat that extends far beyond West Africa."

Millions at risk

According to the WFP, northern Nigeria is experiencing its worst food crisis in a decade. Farming communities are suffering the most.

During the 2026 seasonal shortage, nearly six million people in Borno, Adamawa, and Yobe states are projected to face famine. Fifteen thousand residents of Borno are at risk of catastrophic famine or near-famine conditions.

The situation is worsening amid a funding shortage: in July, WFP was forced to cut nutrition programs in the northeast of the country, affecting more than 300,000 children.

The WFP warns that emergency food assistance resources will run out in December, leaving millions of people without support next year.

Denis Manturov held a meeting to update the automotive industry development strategy.

First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov held a meeting to update the Automotive Industry Development Strategy to 2035. Representatives from the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Ministry of Finance, the Federal Antimonopoly Service, Rosstandart, the Ministry of Economic Development, the Ministry of Energy, and the heads of leading industry companies participated in the event.

The meeting participants discussed the key approaches to developing the updated document, which are currently being discussed by relevant agencies and the industry. Denis Manturov noted that the key benchmark for the Strategy should not be market size, but local production in various segments. The industry's multiplier effect and its impact on related economic sectors must also be taken into account.

The First Deputy Prime Minister also emphasized that market estimates up to 2035 must be realistic and take into account the forecasts of the Bank of Russia and the Ministry of Economic Development for key macroeconomic indicators.

Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade Albert Karimov discussed progress in addressing industry-specific objectives set by the current version of the Strategy for the Development of the Automotive Industry of the Russian Federation until 2035, which was approved in 2022. Specifically, over 80% of production sites abandoned by former foreign partners have been restored to full operation, over 40% of critical auto components and materials have been localized, and stable employment has been ensured for approximately 300,000 people in the automotive industry. Current challenges create the preconditions for advancing long-term goals—increasing the level of motorization in the country, increasing the competitiveness of domestic products, and stimulating fleet renewal.

One of the long-term goals is to stimulate automotive sales volumes that will enhance the industry's investment appeal in terms of private capital inflows, as well as scale up domestic production. Furthermore, it is necessary to create conditions for increased investment in R&D and increase the share of vehicles equipped with advanced driver assistance and autonomous driving systems.

"The production system itself must become more flexible and connected. It's necessary to optimize processes at enterprises by increasing labor productivity, the level of automation and robotics, and expanding the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning systems," noted Albert Karimov.

When working on the updated Strategy, special attention will be paid to the creation of domestic platform solutions, their unification, and work on standardizing the component base.

Implementation of the Strategy's key provisions should satisfy the market and transportation industry's demand for competitive Russian automobiles, while ensuring that domestically produced vehicles account for at least 80% of the total market. This will also increase the automotive industry's contribution to the national economy.

They discussed bilateral cooperation between the two countries, including in the humanitarian, trade, and economic spheres.

The meeting was part of Roberto Morales Ojeda's first visit to Russia in this capacity. The event was also attended by Enrique Horta González, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Republic of Cuba to the Russian Federation, and members of the National Assembly of People's Power of the Republic of Cuba: Emilio Lozada García, Head of the International Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party; Ailyn Álvarez García, First Vice-Rector of the Nico López Communist Party University; Julio Heriberto Gómez Casanova, First Secretary of the Provincial Committee of the Communist Party in Ciego de Ávila; and representatives of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Economic Development.

"In recent years, thanks to the efforts of our leaders – Russian President Vladimir Putin and Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel – we have reached a qualitatively new level of cooperation. We are doing everything possible to fulfill the leaders' agreements. This year was filled with significant events and anniversaries – the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War and the 65th anniversary of the restoration of diplomatic relations between Russia and Cuba. We are very grateful that the President of Cuba participated in the events in Moscow commemorating these anniversaries," Dmitry Chernyshenko emphasized.

The Deputy Prime Minister noted that Russia was concerned about Cuba and its neighbors following Hurricane Melissa. Our country provided humanitarian aid to our Cuban friends from the very first days.

Roberto Morales Ojeda stated: “We thank you, the Russian Government and the people, for your solidarity in providing humanitarian aid to the affected regions.”

Dmitry Chernyshenko He noted that regular contacts are maintained through the Intergovernmental Russian-Cuban Commission on Trade, Economic, Scientific, and Technical Cooperation (IPC), which remains a key platform for work on the entire range of Russian-Cuban relations. He also praised the results of the 22nd IPC meeting held in Havana on April 4, 2025, during which the UAZ automotive assembly plant was launched at the site of the Cuban company EISA, and the ceremonial opening of a branch of the Southern Federal University in Havana took place.

This year, a Cuban delegation participated in the 28th St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, where the first Russian-Cuban business dialogue took place. A Russian delegation, in turn, has been sent to participate in the 41st Havana International Trade Fair (FIHAV), where it traditionally presents its national exhibit. The event will take place November 24–29, 2025, in Havana.

"Another piece of positive news, both for business and for increasing tourism, is the resumption of direct Moscow-Havana flights by Rossiya Airlines on October 26. Since November 2, Venezuela's Conviasa has been connecting St. Petersburg and Varadero with direct, scheduled flights," the Russian Deputy Prime Minister added.

Roberto Morales Ojeda emphasized that Russians constitute a significant portion of the overall tourist flow, and therefore active cooperation between the two countries in the field of tourism will continue, including through new projects.
