Alexey Overchuk held a meeting with Deputy Prime Minister of Mongolia Sainbuyan Amarsaikhan.

During the meeting, a thorough exchange of views took place on the entire spectrum of issues of cooperation between Russia and Mongolia in a bilateral format and in the EAEU format.

The parties positively assessed the dynamics of development of trade and economic relations. In 2024, the volume of trade turnover between Russia and Mongolia increased by 17.8% and reached 2.6 billion dollars. In the first half of 2025, mutual trade between Russia and Mongolia continued to grow, increasing by 4.2% compared to the same period in 2024.

The Deputy Prime Minister noted that the Interim Trade Agreement between the Eurasian Economic Union and Mongolia, signed on June 27, 2025 in Minsk and currently undergoing ratification procedures in the member states of the union and Mongolia, will contribute to a further increase in Russian-Mongolian trade turnover.

Alexey Overchuk drew the attention of Mongolian partners to the need for joint work to resolve issues of non-tariff trade regulation, including intensifying interaction on issues of technical regulation and strengthening cooperation between sanitary, veterinary and phytosanitary control services.

The talks focused on the development of the Russia-Mongolia-China economic corridor and work to strengthen transport connectivity in the Northern Eurasian region.

In 2024, UBZhD transported 33.44 million tons of cargo, 3.3% more than in 2023. Growth continued this year, exceeding 7% in the first seven months. The goal is to reach 50 million tons of transportation by 2030.

Particular attention is paid to cooperation in the educational sector, including the prospects for the development of the branch of Plekhanov University, which over 25 years of work in Mongolia has become one of the flagships of humanitarian cooperation between the two countries.

The Deputy Prime Minister noted that relevant Russian departments and organizations are developing a project to expand and modernize it, to form a modern educational complex based on the branch that meets the highest standards. "This could be a serious step toward meeting the wishes of your community regarding providing Mongolian children with accessible education according to Russian standards," noted Alexey Overchuk.

Financial news: Bank of Russia maintains banking sector profit forecast based on first half results

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Central Bank of Russia –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Banks' claims on companies increased by 2.4% in the second quarter after decreasing by 0.2% in the previous quarter. It is expected that as monetary conditions ease, demand for loans will gradually increase and by the end of 2025, claims on companies will increase by 9-12% (8-13% in the previous forecast).

The population's mortgage debt also grew faster than in the first quarter (1.4 and 0.01%, respectively). However, this is slightly less than the regulator's expectations, so the upper limit of the forecast range for 2025 has been revised and reduced to 6 from 8%.

The consumer loan portfolio in the second quarter continued to shrink (-1.6%) in the context of tight monetary and macroprudential policies. The upper limit of the forecast range for the year was adjusted to 2% from 4%.

The net interest margin forecast has been maintained in the range of 4.0–4.4% by the end of 2025, while it is expected to be closer to its upper limit. High interest income compensates for the increase in the cost of risk, so the net profit forecast for 2025 has been maintained at the level of 3.0–3.5 trillion rubles.

Sergei Sobyanin spoke about the economic effect of the "Summer in Moscow" project

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Project "Summer in Moscow" is nearing completion. Its events took place on the streets and parks of the capital for over three months. More than 400 venues hosted 86,000 cultural, sports and entertainment events. They were visited by 51.9 million guests. More about this in on your blog Sergei Sobyanin said.

Compared to last year, the attendance of many city venues has increased by 10-20 percent, and often by 1.5 times — for example, the Green Market on Bolotnaya Square. More than half of the festival guests were Muscovites, about 17 percent of visitors came from the Moscow Region, 15-18 percent of participants came from other Russian regions, and 10-14 percent were tourists from other countries. The project is especially popular among active young and middle-aged Muscovites. A third of the visitors to the Summer in Moscow festival venues are citizens aged 25-44. For many of them, the project has become an opportunity to diversify their family leisure time.

"At the start of the project, we focused on cooperation with city businesses. We offered entrepreneurs to organize their own events within the framework of the general concept of "Summer in Moscow". And this focus has fully justified itself. More than 1.9 thousand companies took part in the 2025 project, which is 73 percent more than in 2024," the Moscow Mayor noted.

According to preliminary estimates, in June-July, the capital's organizations in the public catering, culture and leisure sectors increased their revenue by 24.3 percent (here and below – in comparable prices), and the growth in turnover of cafes and restaurants amounted to 24.1 percent (up to 159 billion rubles) compared to the same period in 2024.

In the first half of 2025, the number of cafes and restaurants in Moscow increased by 655, and the number of summer verandas exceeded five thousand for the first time.

The sports industry increased by 20.7 percent (to 21.5 billion rubles), cinema by 23.8 percent (to 3.8 billion rubles), and theaters and other organizations in the field of performing arts and artistic creativity by six percent (to 10.6 billion rubles).

"Business has made a significant contribution to the summer decoration of Moscow. Eight thousand companies joined the festival. They decorated the facades, verandas and shop windows of their establishments with flowers or provided sponsorship support to the festival locations," added Sergei Sobyanin.

More than 450 times, businesses joined in the implementation of city projects: they held events and created their own thematic sites.

Thus, SberDevice invited everyone to a gaming zone with consoles, VkusVill organized picnic zones and master classes, KidZania installed playgrounds, the pet store Four Paws opened grooming zones for pets, Spirit.Fitness held yoga training, and Yandex Books presented an exhibition of covers of classic works on Rozhdestvensky Boulevard.

If desired, entrepreneurs could organize an event or promotion "Summer in Moscow" on their own site. The StarsCoffee coffee shop, the President dentistry, the MoreKot cat cafe and many other establishments held more than 1,300 events and provided over three thousand different discounts and promotions.

Goods from Moscow manufacturers were well promoted. They could be purchased in one of 12 bright, recognizable pavilions, as well as in the Green Market on Bolotnaya Square. They were visited by over 1.5 million people. 700 Moscow manufacturers presented their goods, and their additional revenue amounted to over 200 million rubles.

"Summer in Moscow" gave us bright emotions and good impressions. And – what is also very important – it had a huge economic effect. This year we were convinced once again that the project is a good catalyst for the development of the city's economy," summed up Sergei Sobyanin.
