Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko and Minister of Education Sergey Kravtsov spoke about the progress of the admissions campaign in secondary vocational education institutions (SVE).

The acceptance of documents to technical schools and colleges will last until August 15, but already now there is a significant increase in interest among applicants: by July 21, more than 1.7 million applications were submitted, which is 800 thousand more than last year for the same period.

"Training for blue-collar jobs is attracting more and more applicants, and college and technical school graduates are in demand by employers. The number of applications submitted has already increased by 800,000 compared to the same period last year. This is an important result that brings us closer to achieving the goal set by President Vladimir Putin – to train 1 million specialists and skilled workers by 2028," said Dmitry Chernyshenko.

For the third year, college admissions have been 1.2 million people, while six years ago they were 990 thousand people. Thus, today the contingent of secondary vocational education is 3.85 million students.

On the instructions of the Government, since 2025, applications to federal colleges have been submitted via the super service “Online University Admission”. In total, 722 federal higher education institutions implementing SPO programs, including branches, are connected to the super service.

To date, more than 263 thousand applications have been submitted through the super service.

"Already in the first 10 days of the admissions campaign, we have seen a twofold increase in the number of applications compared to last year. Such a growth in interest in SPO clearly confirms the demand for blue-collar jobs among young people and the successful implementation of the tasks set by the President of Russia. Each new SPO student is a future professional who will strengthen the key sectors of our country. The system of secondary vocational education today provides not just education, but sought-after skills, stability and opportunities for professional growth in strategically important sectors," noted Sergey Kravtsov.

The largest number of applications submitted for budget places are observed in Moscow and St. Petersburg, Krasnodar and Perm Krais, Tyumen, Moscow and Novosibirsk Oblasts, and the Republic of Bashkortostan.

The most popular programs among applicants are “Information Systems and Programming” (136 thousand), “Nursing” (104 thousand), “Jurisprudence” (80 thousand), “Tourism and Hospitality” (58 thousand), “General Medicine” (55 thousand), “Economics and Accounting (by Industry)” (39 thousand), “Maintenance and Repair of Motor Vehicles” (37 thousand), “Primary School Teaching” (36 thousand), “Law Enforcement” (35 thousand), “Design (by Industry)” (32 thousand), “Operational Activities in Logistics” (31 thousand), “Construction and Maintenance of Buildings and Structures” (31 thousand).

Earlier, the head of the Ministry of Education emphasized that during the 2025 admissions campaign, there has been a significant increase in interest in SPO. During a recent meeting on education held by Russian President Vladimir Putin, Sergei Kravtsov noted the growing popularity of engineering education among schoolchildren. According to him, school graduates are going into blue-collar jobs.

Let us recall that the admission campaign to secondary vocational education institutions started on June 20. Applicants can submit documents to more than 1,470 educational institutions in 86 regions of the country. In 2025, the secondary vocational education system turns 85 years old.

The government bill on regulating the platform economy has been approved by the State Duma. The package of measures is aimed at protecting the rights and interests of citizens when interacting with intermediary digital platforms. As reported by Deputy Prime Minister – Chief of the Government Staff Dmitry Grigorenko, the Government continues to discuss new legal provisions with the industry in order to prepare a number of by-laws.

Today, the share of digital platforms in the total volume of retail trade is 15%, and in 2024, more than 6 billion orders were made through them. Given the relevance and timeliness of the bill, the deputies proposed to postpone the date of its entry into force to an earlier date – from October 1, 2026.

"The bill was developed in cooperation with the industry, discussions took place at all key venues. As a result of such careful development, the document retained its concept following consideration in the State Duma. At the same time, a number of provisions were clarified, which made the bill even more targeted. Its task is to protect the rights of sellers and buyers, provide guarantees to market participants and promote further stable development of the platform economy in Russia," Dmitry Grigorenko commented on the results of the consideration of the draft law.

Thus, during the consideration of the draft law, the ban on creating discriminatory conditions for access to platforms was clarified. A ban is introduced for operators of any digital platforms to create discriminatory conditions for persons (both individuals and legal entities) using such a platform. In addition, the law establishes the right of recourse (regression) against the platform operator for platform partners. For example, the seller compensated the buyer for damages, but the damage was not caused through his fault. The right of recourse will ensure a fair distribution of responsibility between partners and the platform.

At the suggestion of the deputies, the requirements for the placement of product cards were also revised. If the seller has not posted a link to the certificate of state registration of the product, the platform operator must not allow the card of such a product to be published. This norm supplemented similar requirements for goods subject to mandatory certification, declaration of conformity and labeling, which were already spelled out by the Government in the draft law for the first reading. Platforms will also be required to provide technical functionality to partners to place information on the product card about the possibility of purchasing goods, works, services using an electronic certificate (for example, for the purchase of technical rehabilitation equipment).

After signing the law on regulating the platform economy, the dialogue with the industry and departments will continue. In pursuance of its provisions, the Government will have to prepare 8 by-laws. For example, to approve the rules for maintaining and forming a register of intermediary platforms. Namely, the criteria for the economic significance of platforms and the composition of information for inclusion in the register, the procedure for making changes to the register and excluding from it. The Government will also establish a procedure for platforms to verify information in product cards (compliance with labeling requirements, links to records in compliance registers, certificates of state registration, etc.).

Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova held a regular meeting of the Commission under the President of the Russian Federation on Veterans' Affairs. The members of the commission discussed the measures taken to facilitate the employment of veterans of the special military operation, their professional training and additional professional education in in-demand professions.

"The issue of employment of SVO participants is under the special control of the head of state. Russian President Vladimir Putin instructed the Government, together with the state fund "Defenders of the Fatherland" and the regions, to organize interaction with SVO participants and their family members, including those who have not applied to the employment service, to provide them with support measures, assistance in employment and obtaining additional professional education," said Tatyana Golikova.

The Deputy Prime Minister noted that the Government has approved an interdepartmental plan of measures to improve the level of employment of SVO participants and organize their career guidance. The plan provides psychological, social and legal support for SVO participants in their employment, assistance in obtaining the necessary documents, and holding specialized job fairs with the participation of regional employers.

At present, more than 10.5 thousand participants of the SVO and their family members have applied to the employment service agencies; they have been provided with more than 33 thousand state services in the field of employment assistance, such as job search, career guidance and others.

The largest number of demobilized participants of the SVO are employed in manufacturing, transport, trade, construction and public administration.

A number of measures are envisaged to ensure employment of SVO participants and their family members. Thus, they have the right to receive assistance from employment service agencies in priority training and employment.

An employee participating in the SVO is provided with the retention of his/her job and social and labor guarantees that he/she had before the start of participation in the SVO. A special procedure for taking into account the length of service for the purpose of assigning a pension has been established.

As part of the national project "Personnel" launched on January 1, 2025, professional training is provided to participants of the SVO, as well as their family members. The training is carried out in accordance with the list of 360 professions, positions, and specialties in demand on the labor market approved in February 2025. An information resource for receiving and routing applications for training has been created on the "Work of Russia" portal.

Following the discussion, the following was instructed.

The Russian Ministry of Labor, together with the Social Fund, shall conduct an analysis of cases of employment of demobilized participants of the SVO who have had zero income or income below the minimum wage for a month (or for the last six months), as well as an analysis of the reasons for the current situation in the context of each identified case.

The State Foundation "Defenders of the Fatherland" shall formulate and send to the Ministry of Labor, the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Science and Higher Education proposals on training aimed at improving the qualifications of SVO participants, with the aim of their employment in jobs (positions, professions) in which SVO participants have expressed a desire to carry out labor activities taking into account the acquired qualifications, as well as proposals on the formation in the subjects of registers of professions in demand among SVO participants.

In order to improve the organization of work on the employment of demobilized participants of the SVO, as well as for the future demobilization of participants of the SVO, the highest executive bodies of the subjects for the training (if necessary) of demobilized participants of the SVO, as well as their subsequent employment, should study the issue of the adequacy of the personnel potential of employment services to support the process of employment of demobilized participants of the SVO, and also conduct an analysis of the availability of vacant (reserved, planned for creation) jobs for the employment of this category of citizens.

The highest executive bodies of the constituent entities are recommended to strengthen their work on the employment of SVO participants, including SVO disabled persons, as well as their family members, using employment services (the "one-stop shop" principle, personal career consultant), the unified digital platform "Work of Russia", and to ensure continuous monitoring of this work and interaction between interested bodies. Inform SVO participants and their family members about the possibility of a priority order of using the mechanism of state social assistance on the basis of a social contract, about the right of employment service bodies to assist them in priority training and employment, about the activities of the national project "Personnel" for vocational training and additional vocational education of SVO participants and their family members, as well as employers about existing measures to stimulate the hiring of certain categories of citizens (through partial compensation of wages to employers), reimbursement of part of the costs of equipping workplaces for employment, including combat veterans with disabilities.

Park "Zheleznodorozhny", the city of Frolovo, Volgograd region

The federal project "Formation of a comfortable urban environment", which since 2025 has been part of the national project "Infrastructure for life", helps transform cities and towns across the country. Modern public spaces are being created in large and small towns: squares, embankments, pedestrian zones and other places for recreation and walking. This was reported by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.

"According to the President's instructions, 30,000 public areas need to be improved across the country by 2030 under the national project "Infrastructure for Life". This work is of great importance for improving the quality of life of people and developing regions. Improvement of public spaces makes cities more comfortable to live in, increases their attractiveness, and provides an additional incentive for the development of small businesses and domestic tourism. Therefore, we continue this systematic work. According to the results of the first half of 2025, 591 areas have been improved. Including 14 projects that were implemented – winners of the All-Russian competition of the best projects for creating a comfortable urban environment. These are parks, embankments, squares and courtyards that become centers of attraction – people walk here, play sports, relax with their families, meet with friends and new cafes open here," said Marat Khusnullin.

For example, in the Velizh municipal district of the Smolensk region, Sovetskaya and Volodarsky streets were transformed. The work included the creation of art objects, recreation areas, the arrangement of new road surfaces and landscaping. The updated territory with an area of 13.8 thousand square meters is already open to residents.

The first stage of improvement of the Heroes-Pilots Park in the Dzerzhinsky District of Volgograd has been completed. New pedestrian zones, lighting and thematic elements, including the composition "Boy with an Airplane", have appeared here.

For residents of the city of Frolovo in the Volgograd region, the Zheleznodorozhny Park has been renovated. Now it is a multifunctional space with areas for sports, recreation and cultural events. The park has new modern exercise machines, modernized sports areas, workout and street sports areas, a skate park, updated pedestrian routes and bike paths.

"During the operation of the federal project "Formation of a comfortable urban environment", from 2019 to 2024, almost 74 thousand modern, comfortable public and courtyard spaces were transformed, 921 projects were implemented – the winner of the all-Russian competition. Since 2025, the federal project "Formation of a comfortable urban environment", by decision of the President of Russia, has been retained as part of the national project "Infrastructure for life", – noted the Minister of Construction and Housing and Public Utilities Irek Fayzullin.

As part of a working visit to the Novosibirsk Region, Deputy Prime Minister – Chief of the Government Staff Dmitry Grigorenko familiarized himself with digital solutions for public administration that have already been implemented in the region.

Novosibirsk Oblast is one of the top ten regions in the digital transformation rating and is actively implementing technologies in various areas. The region is connected to the digital system "governor's dashboard". This is one of the technological solutions of the Russian Government, designed for public administration based on data. The dashboard reflects the key areas of the region's work and performance indicators, the status of the execution of instructions, federal and regional budgets, construction plans and other tasks. Such systems have already been implemented at the federal level. They have proven their effectiveness and are now being extended to the regions (43 regions are currently connected to the "governor's dashboard").

"The ultimate goal of digitalization of public administration is always the comfort of citizens. Thanks to digital platforms and services, citizens receive government services faster and can promptly, without unnecessary paperwork, leave feedback. In addition, "digital" helps officials work more efficiently. For example, to respond faster to citizens' requests, analyze what worries people most, and make informed decisions based on objective data," said Dmitry Grigorenko.

The region is also developing digital services for citizens and implementing a customer-centric approach. The region has a system called the Novosibirsk Region Resident Card, which is a digital citizen identifier for receiving various goods or services, such as discounted travel on public transport or baby food. The system proactively notifies citizens about available benefits and services. A linked Mir bank card or a QR code in a personal account can serve as confirmation of benefits in various institutions or transport. The Resident Card can also be presented to receive discounted medicines, purchase discounted tickets to cultural institutions, and the card can serve as a library card or a pass to educational institutions. Currently, the system has 18 different services, and almost 40 thousand residents of the region are registered.

The region has also implemented a digital project that has no analogues in other regions – signing contracts with kindergartens in electronic form through the Gosklyuch application. The service was implemented within the framework of the regional life situation "Preschooler". Within its framework, the process of registering a child in a kindergarten was digitized: from filing an application (now 91% of applications for joining the queue are submitted through the state services portal) to signing an agreement with the kindergarten remotely. Since the launch, more than 4 thousand contracts have already been successfully signed electronically.

During his working visit, Deputy Prime Minister – Chief of the Government Staff Dmitry Grigorenko got acquainted with the results of the implementation of artificial intelligence in various sectors of the economy, social life and public administration in the Novosibirsk Region. As the Deputy Prime Minister noted, local developments using artificial intelligence have a high potential for replication across the country.

Dmitry Grigorenko visited the Research Center for Artificial Intelligence of the Novosibirsk National Research State University, as well as the technopark of the Novosibirsk Akademgorodok, where IT companies are working on the creation and implementation of promising AI solutions. The Deputy Prime Minister – Head of the Government Staff noted that Novosibirsk is one of the centers for the development of information technology and artificial intelligence.

"Our goal is to develop high-quality AI solutions and implement them on a large scale. This is only possible if AI development brings tangible results and real benefits. Novosibirsk has created decent conditions for the development of artificial intelligence. It has a strong scientific base and a progressive startup community. Thanks to this, the development of artificial intelligence here is parallel to the implementation, and not in isolation from it. It is important that the region itself is interested in using its AI developments and implements them in local educational institutions, enterprises and even in the work of government agencies," said Dmitry Grigorenko.

One of the most important areas of implementation of artificial intelligence is public administration. In the Novosibirsk region, AI assistants are being implemented, which allow optimizing the work of civil servants. Thus, an AI expert in customer centricity helps process citizens' requests and prepare the most understandable and clear answers, an AI assistant in the electronic document management system – quickly find the necessary information, and an AI stenographer – generate meeting minutes. Services have already begun to be implemented in the work of regional and municipal authorities.

In addition, the region has implemented the Safe City video analytics system, which helps monitor public order and search for offenders. More than 2.6 thousand criminals were detained with the help of the system. Novosibirsk specialists also created and implemented an AI service for searching for missing children using city video cameras. In less than two months of the service's operation, six children were found with its help.

Since 2025, the Novosibirsk Region has been actively introducing AI technologies into healthcare: AI is used to interpret X-ray and CT scan data. Since the beginning of the year, the system has processed over 361 thousand images. AI is used as an assistant for analyzing medical data, but the final diagnosis remains with the specialist. In addition, Novosibirsk doctors use voice input technology based on a neural network. It reduces the likelihood of errors in medical documentation. Today, the technology has been implemented in 71 medical institutions in the region.

"The use of artificial intelligence is justified for specific tasks. We try to monitor all developments, but when we approach the stage of large-scale implementation, we look at the expected result – improved quality of services, fundamentally new services for our citizens or a reduction in our labor costs. If we see successful developments, we try to quickly repeat them, but at the same time we can develop our own solutions. As examples, I can cite the analysis of X-ray and computed tomography data, the Safe City video analytics system. In the field of voice analytics and speech generation, this is the well-known robot Nikolai, a voice keyboard for doctors, intelligent assistants for civil servants. All these solutions both improve the quality of services for citizens and seriously reduce labor costs for our colleagues," said Andrey Travnikov, Governor of the Novosibirsk Region.

We have common ideas and initiatives, the same view of the situation in the world, which should become multipolar," said Alexander Novak.

The President of the Republic of Abkhazia Badra Gunba noted that the difficulties the republic faces are not easy, but with the support of the Russian Federation, they can be overcome. "It is very important for us to implement all the programs that we have outlined. Based on the results of 2022-2025, we see positive results: trade turnover has grown significantly, GDP has increased by 187%. These are serious indicators. I am confident that the implementation of the current program will give a special impetus to the development of the economy of our republic," the head of Abkhazia noted.

During the visit, the 20th meeting of the Russian-Abkhaz Intergovernmental Commission was also held, at which the parties discussed key areas of cooperation and outlined further steps for the socio-economic development of the republic.

The delegation visited a number of significant sites, including the site of the future Children's Republican Hospital, the Sukhum International Airport named after V.G. Ardzinba. "Despite the existing challenges, our work remains systematic, and cooperation remains practical. Russia and Abkhazia continue to consistently strengthen their strategic partnership. Today, we are jointly building a common space of security and sustainability, implementing large-scale programs for the development of key industries," noted Alexander Novak.

During the meeting, the parties agreed on a number of important decisions. Among them are the continuation of the implementation of the State Program for the Socio-Economic Development of the Republic of Abkhazia for 2022–2025, the extension of the basic agreement on socio-economic cooperation until 2030, which will create the basis for a new five-year program for 2026–2030. The agreement should come into force by the end of the year.

“I am confident that the results of our joint work will create the basis for sustainable movement forward, will strengthen our strategic partnership and will bring tangible benefits to the citizens of Russia and Abkhazia,” Alexander Novak summed up.

The cross-border cableway across the Amur River between the cities of Blagoveshchensk (Russia) and Heihe (China) is the world's first cableway between two countries, Russia and China, and opens up great prospects for the development of international tourism and business. The cableway is being built under an intergovernmental agreement signed on September 3, 2015. The construction period is 2019–2025, with commissioning scheduled for May 2026. Technical readiness as of July 2025 is 80%.

The length of the cable car is 976 meters, it consists of two independent lines with two cabins with a capacity of up to 110 people each, the throughput capacity is 6.8 thousand people per day in each direction, the throughput capacity of the checkpoint across the state border is up to 2.5 million people per year (in both directions).

On the Russian side, a four-level passenger terminal with a total area of 26 thousand square meters is being built to accommodate the cable car terminal station, a platform and technological equipment, a checkpoint across the state border, a duty-free shop, restaurants, shopping and entertainment facilities. Commissioning is scheduled for May 2026.

The construction of a multifunctional congress and exhibition center is included in the long-term plan for the comprehensive socio-economic development of Blagoveshchensk for the period up to 2030.

The Alley of Fountains is the largest fountain complex in Eurasia, which has become the new calling card of the capital of the Amur Region. It is a pedestrian fountain with an area of 3 thousand square meters with a fogging system and 2114 jets. It was put into operation in May 2024.

In the evening, the fountain jets "dance" to music, being painted in different colors thanks to the spotlights installed next to the nozzles. Spectators can see "swan wings", "hearts", and other water figures.

The Amur Dinopark is an immersive area that will feature more than 20 exhibits, such as animatronic dinosaurs in jungle-like interiors. Finishing work is currently underway in the new building, with completion scheduled for May 2026.
