Before National Unity Day, third- and fourth-year students majoring in Advertising and Public Relations, led by instructors Olga Vasilyeva and Alexandra Timokhovich, visited the Museum of the Patriotic War of 1812 to refresh their memories of the Napoleonic Wars.

During the tour, the children examined over 2,000 exhibits and learned about the exploits of Russian soldiers and commanders who demonstrated impressive courage and selflessness. "I was particularly struck by the 'Road to Triumph' hall, dedicated to the Russian army's foreign campaigns and the decisive battles leading to victory over Napoleon. The exhibit vividly illustrates the journey from the expulsion of the invaders from Russia to the complete defeat of the French army, highlighting the genius of the commanders and the indomitable spirit of the Russian people. This is not just a chronology of victories, but a story of the unity of nations in the struggle for freedom," shared Emilia Vasilenko.

The museum's exhibition is structured chronologically, from the early 19th century to the end of the pan-European confrontation of 1815. Display cases feature reconstructed uniforms of the Russian and French armies, weapons, and authentic items from soldiers' everyday lives. Modern multimedia technologies make the visit interactive and visual.

"When you stand before the authentic uniform of a private from the Pavlovsky Grenadier Regiment, and interactive battle maps come to life on the wall, it's a powerful experience. This combination allows you to study the tactical aspects of the battle in detail. We felt how important it is to preserve the memory of the past and share it with others," said Ekaterina Smirnova.

Students were able to experience the world of commanders-in-chief, see the personal belongings of Emperors Alexander I and Napoleon Bonaparte, and the monumental paintings of Vasily Vereshchagin and the final hall with military trophies vividly demonstrated the triumph of the Russian army.

"The museum visit was a true journey through history, helping us feel the spirit of the times and understand how culture and communication intertwine even in a museum setting. For us, communications students, the museum became an example of how to connect with an audience without words—through emotion, aesthetics, and atmosphere. The combination of historical accuracy, modern technology, and rare exhibits makes the museum's exhibition not just educational, but truly vibrant and emotional," noted Angelina Igoshina.

BEIJING, November 6 (Xinhua) — At the invitation of Chinese President Xi Jinping, King Maha Vajiralongkorn of Thailand will pay a state visit to China from November 13 to 17, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning announced on Thursday.

At a regular departmental press conference, Mao Ning announced that Chinese President Xi Jinping and Premier of the State Council of the People's Republic of China Li Qiang will meet with the King of Thailand separately.

“This is the first visit of the King of Thailand to China since the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries,” Mao Ning noted.

According to her, the fact that the King of Thailand chose China as the first major country for his official visit fully reflects the great importance that both sides attach to the development of bilateral relations.

China and Thailand are close and friendly neighbors, and a community of shared destiny. In recent years, under the strategic guidance of the two countries' leaders, China-Thailand relations have maintained a high level of development, and the concept of "China and Thailand as close as one family" has deeply penetrated the hearts of the people of both countries, Mao Ning said.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Thailand and the "Golden Jubilee of China-Thailand Friendship," which opens up new opportunities for the development of bilateral relations, Mao Ning noted.

She emphasized that through this visit, China hopes to continue the traditional friendship, strengthen political mutual trust, deepen mutually beneficial cooperation and achieve more fruitful results in building a China-Thailand community with a shared future, which will bring more benefits to the two peoples and make a positive contribution to maintaining peace, stability, development and prosperity in the region. -0-

Beijing, November 6 (Xinhua) — A batch of 87 elite dairy cows bred in the Litong District of Wuzhong City in Northwest China's Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region recently passed strict export quarantine inspections and were shipped to Uzbekistan. This marks the first time dairy cows have been exported from Ningxia, according to the news portal chinanews.com.cn, citing a statement from the local agricultural department.

The Litong region, located on the Yellow River plain in northwest China, is recognized as a "Golden Milk Belt" due to its favorable geographic and natural conditions for livestock farming. Statistics show that the region currently houses 235,000 dairy cows, with a 98 percent scalability rate. In recent years, China's leading dairy companies have established premium raw milk bases here, allowing Litong's annual fresh milk production to exceed 1.2 million tons.

Local authorities claim that the successful export of the first batch of dairy cows to Uzbekistan has opened new horizons for international cooperation in livestock farming in the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, thereby giving impetus to the development of exchanges between China and the Central Asian region on agricultural technology and becoming a new shining example of agricultural cooperation between countries participating in the Belt and Road Initiative.

Samotlorneftegaz's green investments exceeded 15 billion rubles in the first nine months of 2025.

Samotlorneftegaz, one of Rosneft's key production assets, allocated more than 15 billion rubles to implement environmental programs and activities in the first nine months of 2025.

The company implements a number of environmental programs, including methane emission monitoring, land reclamation, safe industrial waste disposal, stocking Siberian rivers with fish, and reforestation.

For several years, Samotlorneftegaz has been implementing a gas investment program, including a phased upgrade of its gas infrastructure to maintain a minimum 98% efficiency level for associated petroleum gas (APG). A modern, comprehensive system for collecting, treating, compressing, and transporting gas has been developed at the Samotlor field. The majority of the gas is sent to gas processing plants and local consumers.

Samotlorneftegaz monitors greenhouse gas emissions at its production facilities. Since the beginning of the year, over 2,600 measurements have been taken at oil and gas treatment facilities and 230 at mechanized wells using modern equipment such as infrared cameras, laser scanners, and ultrasonic detectors. Unmanned aerial vehicles equipped with laser gas analyzers have been used to inspect gas pipelines with a total length of approximately 506 kilometers.

Since the beginning of the year, 152 kilometers of oilfield pipelines have been built as part of the pipeline reliability improvement program. To ensure the pipeline system's strength, modern domestic coating materials for the internal surfaces of pipes and new technologies for processing welded joints have been used. Inhibitor corrosion protection is being implemented on the existing pipeline fleet.

Samotlorneftegaz has fully completed the reclamation of its "historical heritage" lands. Technical and biological restoration work was carried out year-round thanks to the extensive use of its own winter reclamation and phytomelioration technologies. Samotlorneftegaz carried out most of the work through its internal environmental services team, using specialized equipment for working in marshy areas.

Another of the company's most important tasks is maintaining the ecological balance within its production area by replenishing biological resources. Approximately 5,000 Siberian sterlet fry and over 750,000 muksun and nelma have been released into the Ob-Irtysh basin. In total, over 20 million valuable fish fry have been released into the northern rivers in recent years thanks to these campaigns.

The company has planted over 1.8 million coniferous trees in Yugra's forestry districts over the past decade, covering an area of over 520 hectares. In addition to forested areas, in 2025, the company's volunteers also landscaped parks in Nizhnevartovsk.

Preserving the environment for future generations is a key focus of Rosneft's strategy. The company and its subsidiaries are implementing a number of comprehensive programs to preserve biodiversity, conserve natural resources in the regions where they operate, and strive to ensure environmentally friendly production and minimize environmental impact.

Reference:

Samotlorneftegaz, one of Rosneft's key production assets, is developing Russia's largest Samotlor field in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug – Yugra. The company's licensed areas cover a total of 2,900 square kilometers.
