Order No. 3143-r of November 6, 2025

Mikhail Mishustin signed an order approving the Strategy for the Development of Industrial Production of Rehabilitation-Oriented Products through 2030.

The new strategy is a continuation of a similar document in effect until 2025. Its goal is to achieve sustainable development in the rehabilitation industry, which will enable the long-term satisfaction of the needs of people with disabilities and other low-mobility populations for high-quality, effective, and safe technical rehabilitation equipment that impacts their life expectancy and quality of life.

The new strategy will localize the production of rehabilitation products and critical components for the most in-demand rehabilitation equipment, promote the development of fast-growing technology companies—leaders in the rehabilitation industry—to create a wide range of high-tech products, develop breakthrough rehabilitation technologies, and support scientific research and development.

Plans also include expanding sales markets and increasing the investment attractiveness of Russian rehabilitation products, developing international cooperation, and creating conditions for expanding product exports and mechanisms to promote industrial and economic cooperation in the rehabilitation industry.

In addition, the strategy proposes improving the system for training qualified personnel, including developing a system for assessing and forecasting the industry's personnel needs, updating federal state educational standards and curricula, professional standards in the rehabilitation industry, and ensuring the renewal of the material and technical base of educational institutions that train industry specialists.

As a result of the strategy's implementation, it is planned to increase the share of Russian rehabilitation products in the domestic market to 64% by 2030, and to increase industrial production of such products to at least 105.6 billion rubles. It is also planned to increase the number of patent applications for inventions filed by Russian rehabilitation product developers to 302 by 2030.

Specific measures for implementing the strategy will be reflected in the corresponding plan, which the Ministry of Industry and Trade must prepare and submit to the Government within six months.

Comment

From Mikhail Mishustin's opening remarks at the operational meeting with deputy prime ministers, November 10, 2011

The main areas of the new strategy were discussed at a meeting with deputy prime ministers on November 10. Mikhail Mishustin instructed Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova to monitor the progress of the strategy's implementation and to pay special attention to the production of products for children with disabilities to help them feel better and continue their education.

Summarizing the implementation of the previous strategy, the Prime Minister noted that nearly a thousand companies now operate in all federal districts producing essential rehabilitation products, and the market for rehabilitation equipment has more than doubled to exceed 100 billion rubles, with over half of these products manufactured in Russia. These include digital hearing aids, IV drips, manual and electric wheelchairs, bionic prosthetics, orthopedic footwear, anti-bedsore mattresses, talking books for the visually impaired, and other in-demand products needed by people with disabilities.

Belarus responded to Lithuania's blockade by "arresting" 1,100 trucks.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Lithuanian authorities abandoned over a thousand commercial vehicles in their neighbor's territory. Belarus is now moving them to designated parking lots and is prepared to take "legal measures" until Vilnius reopens the border crossing.

Lithuania unilaterally closed two main border crossings with Belarus – Kamenny Log and Benyakoni – resulting in the de facto stranding of over 1,100 trucks with Lithuanian license plates within the country. Drivers and vehicles were forced to idle on access roads leading to the closed crossings.

The Belarusian Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced measures in response to the current situation. To ensure the safety and security of vehicles, all stranded trucks will be moved to specially designated parking areas near the Kotlovka checkpoint. At the same time, the diplomatic agency stated that, for humanitarian reasons, drivers have been given the opportunity to leave Belarus and return to their permanent places of residence until Lithuania reopens the border. The Ministry also stated its readiness to provide the necessary assistance to drivers who, for whatever reason, are unable to leave.

Official Minsk places full responsibility for the events on the Lithuanian side. Statements from the Belarusian Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasize that all additional costs and logistical losses incurred by freight carriers, senders, and recipients in Lithuania and other European Union countries are a direct consequence of the ill-considered and politicized decisions of the Lithuanian authorities. The Belarusian side reserves the right to apply all legal measures against any transport remaining on its territory.

Previously, Belarusian authorities repeatedly stated that they posed no obstacles to the return of Lithuanian trucks. Minsk's position was that traffic would resume on a first-come, first-served basis immediately after Lithuania reopened the border. Meanwhile, Lithuanian Prime Minister Ingrida Šimonytė confirmed that Vilnius intends to ask Minsk to consider the possibility of returning the vehicles and drivers. She also made it clear that the border itself would remain closed until November 30, 2025, a deadline that could be extended.

The Lithuanian government's decision to close the border was motivated by efforts to combat smuggling on the Belarusian side. In response, Belarus imposed counter-restrictions on the passage of trucks and tractor-trailers registered in Lithuania through its territory. According to a Belarusian government decree, these vehicles may enter and exit only through the Belarusian-Lithuanian border, and all cargo operations, re-unions, and refueling must be carried out exclusively in designated areas. These restrictions will remain in effect until December 31, 2027.

As a reminder, Lithuanian National Radio and Television LRT previously reported that Lithuania was initiating negotiations with Belarus on the return of approximately 500 Lithuanian trucks blocked on Belarusian territory through the closed Šalčininkai border crossing. LR

Dmitry Grigorenko: All photos and videos will be taken by inspectors using the "Inspector" app.

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Source: Government of the Russian Federation – Government of the Russian Federation –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Inspectors will only use the "Inspector" mobile app to take photos and record videos during inspections and professional visits. A number of government decrees have been signed amending relevant regulations regarding types of inspections. This decision will make the interaction between inspectors and entrepreneurs more transparent. The app will also be designated the primary tool for remote inspections.

The pilot implementation of the "Inspector" app began in May 2024. During this time, inspectors from various agencies used it to conduct nearly 8,000 remote inspections and preventative measures. The total duration of these video conference sessions was 7,962 hours (the volume is 6.56 TB). All these materials will be stored on secure servers for five years. Roszdravnadzor is the leading user of the app (in the first nine months of 2025, 43% of inspections were conducted through the "Inspector" app).

"The 'Inspector' mobile app is a modern monitoring tool. It makes inspection and preventative maintenance procedures even more transparent and convenient. All photo and video recordings are stored on servers. In some cases, time and resource costs are significantly reduced by eliminating the need for an inspector to physically be on-site," commented Deputy Prime Minister and Head of the Government Staff Dmitry Grigorenko.

The app is now designated as the primary tool for photo and video recording. Corresponding amendments have already been made to 80 regulations on types of oversight. For example, to the Regulation on Federal State Control (Supervision) of the Quality and Safety of Medical Activities and the Regulation on Licensing Activities in the Field of the Use of Infectious Disease Agents in Humans and Animals. Amendments will be made to nine more regulations by the end of the year.

Preventive and inspection visits, raids, and on-site inspections can be conducted remotely using the mobile app. The regulations also require inspectors to take all necessary photos and videos during on-site visits only through the "Inspector" app. The regulations note that the use of photography and video recording to document violations of mandatory requirements is carried out in accordance with Russian legislation on the protection of state and official secrets.

Authorization in the mobile app is done through the Gosuslugi website. The app tracks the geolocation of the person being monitored and can detect geolocation spoofing. Photo and video footage is stored on secure servers. Both the entrepreneur and the inspector have access to a five-year history of all inspections and preventive measures conducted using the app. This archive, for example, can serve as a tool for appealing inspection results.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10 (Xinhua) — The U.S. Senate on Sunday evening approved a bipartisan package of spending bills aimed at ending the longest government shutdown, which has entered its 40th day and caused a series of growing disruptions to government operations.

The upper chamber voted 60-40 in a key procedural vote to pass a spending package that will fund most federal agencies at current levels through January 30, as well as the Agriculture Department, Veterans Affairs and Pentagon construction projects, and congressional activities for the entire fiscal year.

The package will provide full-year funding for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), which was jeopardized by the extended government shutdown.

As part of the Democrats' deal to end the shutdown, Senate Majority Leader John Thune promised Democratic senators a vote "no later than the second week of December" to extend Affordable Care Act subsidies that are set to expire at the end of the year.

While both sides were making progress, nearly 3,000 flights were canceled and more than 10,000 were delayed across the country on Sunday, highlighting the growing impact of the shutdown on everyday American life.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Yulianna Morozova, a postgraduate student at the RUDN University Engineering Academy, was named a finalist in the UMNIK-2025 competition, a prestigious project of the Foundation for Assistance to Small Innovative Enterprises (FASI). She received an individual grant of 500,000 rubles for research in the field of "H3. New Materials and Chemical Technologies."

In total, UMNIK-2025 received over 3,300 applications from across the country in six key areas: digital technologies, medicine and health-preserving technologies, new materials and chemical technologies, new devices and intelligent manufacturing technologies, biotechnology, and resource-saving energy. Following a competitive selection process, 500 applications were recommended for funding.

Liquid rubber binder

Yulianna presented a research project at the competition on the topic: "Development of polymer concrete based on liquid rubber: an innovative material for the production of building structures with high chemical resistance to aggressive environments."

"In Russia, with its wide range of industrial facilities and developed chemical, mining, and processing industries, building materials lack sufficient resistance to aggressive environmental influences, including acids, alkalis, and salts. This leads to rapid structural deterioration. Therefore, in 2023, when I was choosing a topic for my PhD dissertation, my supervisor, Galina Okolnikova, suggested exploring a little-studied area of developing a new class of high-strength, crack-resistant, and chemically resistant building materials that combine the advantages of elastomers and traditional concrete," says Yuliana Morozova.

According to the girl, the novelty of this material lies in the use of liquid rubber as the main polymer binder. The preliminary results of the study have already been published in scientific papers at the Higher Attestation Commission level and presented at various scientific conferences, including the BRICS conference.

"To implement the project, Galina Erikovna and I are working on selecting the composition and production technology for a composite material based on liquid rubber, conducting practical tests at the RUDN laboratory, and planning to file a patent application," says Yuliana Morozova.

As the graduate student notes, her experience writing scientific articles for publication in the Scopus, Higher Attestation Commission (VAK), and Russian Science Citation Index (RSCI) databases, as well as more than six years of participation in national and international conferences, including receiving a grant from the President of the Russian Federation during her master's degree, continue to inspire her to develop and achieve new achievements in the field of construction.

The fruit of hard work

According to her supervisor, Galina Okolnikova, a PhD candidate in engineering, Yulianna's professional approach and desire to develop in the construction industry caught her attention when she enrolled at RUDN University. Previously, the graduate student successfully completed her bachelor's and master's degrees (with honors) at Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University and was accepted to our university on a scholarship.

"Yulianna's victory is a clear testament to the fruits of her persistent and long-term work on developing an innovative material. Our research is aimed at producing a composite material, Cautone, for the production of building structures operating under high mechanical loads and aggressive chemical environments. We expect to obtain a material with increased durability, resistance to acids, salts, and cyclic loads," says Galina Okolnikova.

An associate professor in the Department of Construction Technologies and Structural Materials at RUDN University emphasizes that the university laboratory where they are conducting their research is equipped with cutting-edge, modern equipment, allowing them to practice key production processes. The grant will help implement a promising project with significant practical implications for the construction industry.
