The co-chairs of the Board of Trustees of the Foundation for the Preservation and Development of the Solovetsky Archipelago—His Holiness Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Rus' and Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko—opened the exhibition "Holy Abode: On the 600th Anniversary of the Solovetsky Monastery" at the Christ the Savior Cathedral in Moscow.

The exhibition is dedicated to the history and spiritual heritage of the Solovetsky Monastery, one of the largest centers of Orthodoxy and culture in the Russian North. The collection is based on icon paintings and decorative and applied art from the 16th to 19th centuries from the collections of the Moscow Kremlin Museums.

"I would like to sincerely thank everyone who cares about preserving these treasures. For those far removed from the Church, these are artistic treasures, and for Orthodox believers, they are, of course, artistic treasures, but first and foremost, they are our national shrines. Suffice it to say that our distant ancestors prayed before these icons. And we still pray before them in the 21st century. This alone is worth reflecting on. If all these were myths and fairy tales, as we were taught, then this veneration would never have survived into the 21st century. But faith is a truly living force, passed down from generation to generation and inspired by the Lord Himself," the Primate of the Russian Orthodox Church addressed those present.

Dmitry Chernyshenko noted that this exhibition can be considered the first event to be implemented from the plan of events dedicated to the celebration of the 600th anniversary of the Solovetsky Monastery.

"At the request of His Holiness Kirill, Patriarch of Moscow and All Rus', our President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin signed a decree according to which, in honor of the 600th anniversary, the Russian government, together with ministries and the Arkhangelsk region, is carrying out large-scale restoration of the architectural relics and infrastructure of the entire archipelago. We understand that the relics on display at the exhibition, the incredibly beautiful artifacts, carefully preserved by our scholars and custodians, are a visual embodiment of the spiritual tuning fork that is the Solovetsky Monastery. The Russian government, for its part, will take all measures to ensure that this plan is fully realized and implemented," the Deputy Prime Minister stated.

The 600th anniversary of the founding of the first monastic settlement on the Solovetsky Archipelago will be celebrated in 2029. Active preparations for the event are already underway.

In preparation for the celebration, more than 170 cultural and educational events are planned, including exhibitions and educational and scientific projects. The opening of the exhibition "Holy Abode: On the 600th Anniversary of the Solovetsky Monastery" is among these events.

The Solovetsky Monastery complex is expected to be restored, and the infrastructure of the Solovetsky settlement will be improved. Funding has been secured for this work.

In 2025, a district hospital, a new terminal building for the Solovki airfield, and a modern industrial and consumer waste management facility were already commissioned in the village of Solovetsky. Construction of a service pier and reconstruction of the Tamarin passenger pier have begun.

The opening of the exhibition "Holy Abode: On the 600th Anniversary of the Solovetsky Monastery" was also attended by Arkhangelsk Region Governor Alexander Tsybulsky, First Deputy Minister of Culture Sergei Obryvalin, and others.

First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov has become the head of the board of trustees of the All-Russian Museum of Decorative Arts.

It included representatives of federal and regional executive authorities, business, culture, and public organizations. Participants in the first meeting discussed key issues related to the museum's strategic development, the implementation of projects aimed at promoting folk arts and crafts, and outlined priority areas of activity.

Denis Manturov noted that the museum's development is an important aspect of consolidating society and strengthening its cultural sovereignty, as well as educating future generations in traditional spiritual and moral values.

"In 2031, the museum will celebrate its 50th anniversary. By this anniversary, a range of projects must be completed, including major renovations, including the museum's reconstruction, expansion, and modernization of exhibition spaces and storage facilities. Furthermore, a thorough renovation must also encompass the museum's supporting infrastructure, which makes the visit more comfortable and attractive for visitors. Particular emphasis must be placed on strengthening the restoration workshops and expanding the collections. These and many other objectives are included in the museum's draft development concept," stated the First Deputy Prime Minister.

"The museum has enormous potential: its collection houses a unique collection of decorative and applied arts, from authentic folk crafts to contemporary design pieces. The institution also implements numerous scientific, educational, and exhibition projects," emphasized Deputy Minister of Culture Andrei Malyshev.

"As our chairman has determined, we need to move in two directions simultaneously to reach our anniversary. We must improve our current operations—expand our exhibition and publishing efforts, and implement digital projects. And we must also prepare for the modernization of our infrastructure—the building, its equipment, and the landscaping of the grounds. It's inspiring that our meetings will be held regularly, quarterly," noted Tatyana Rybkina, Director of the All-Russian Museum of Decorative Arts.

Infrastructure budget and special treasury loans have proven themselves to be effective tools for the comprehensive development of regions. They support not only the construction, reconstruction, and repair of important infrastructure facilities, but also the accompanying socioeconomic benefits that improve the quality of life for people across the country. For example, in the Southern Federal District, overseen by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin, infrastructure loans have facilitated the commissioning of approximately 3 million square meters of residential real estate.

"The Southern Federal District is developing dynamically today. It combines industry, agriculture, and, of course, tourism. The region welcomes millions of travelers annually, so much attention is paid to renewing the urban environment, modernizing infrastructure, and creating comfortable living and recreational conditions. Socially significant projects in the Southern Federal District are being implemented, in part, thanks to infrastructure budget and special treasury loans. Since 2022, the IBC and SKK have facilitated the commissioning of approximately 3 million square meters of housing, attracted over 315 billion rubles in extra-budgetary investment, and created approximately 10,000 jobs," noted Marat Khusnullin.

As a continuation of the IBC program, the Treasury Infrastructure Loan mechanism is being launched this year. According to the Deputy Prime Minister, the Presidium of the Government Commission for Regional Development has approved financing for 33 projects and events using Treasury Infrastructure Loans (TILs) in all eight regions of the Southern Federal District: Krasnodar Krai, Rostov Oblast, Astrakhan Oblast, Volgograd Oblast, Sevastopol, and the Republics of Adygea, Kalmykia, and Crimea. TILs totaling 30.17 billion rubles will be used to upgrade utility infrastructure.

The Ministry of Construction is the curator of the infrastructure loan program, and the public-law company "Territorial Development Fund" is responsible for project implementation.

In the regions of the Southern Federal District, 97 projects and activities have already been completed within the framework of the IBC and SCC mechanisms, including the delivery of new public transport.

Vasily Kupyzin, CEO of the Territorial Development Fund, reported that project implementation is ongoing. "Currently, 41 projects and activities are being implemented within the IBC and SKK. Thirty-six of these relate to utility infrastructure. Infrastructure development in the central-western part of Volgograd is also ongoing, including the design and construction of water supply, wastewater disposal, and electricity networks in the Dzerzhinsky and Krasnooktyabrsky districts," Kupyzin said.

Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Patrushev held a meeting regarding Incident No. 55, "Wastewater Treatment Facilities." The meeting, attended by senior officials from the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Ministry of Natural Resources, and the Ministry of Construction, discussed the organization of work with wastewater treatment equipment manufacturers.

The Deputy Prime Minister noted that during the investigation into the incident, instances were identified where equipment installed at a number of small wastewater treatment facilities was failing to meet regulatory treatment parameters. These findings indicate systemic problems at such facilities.

The meeting participants discussed approaches to working with manufacturers, the current legal regulation of this activity, and the need to develop new GOST standards. Following the meeting, Dmitry Patrushev instructed the Ministry of Industry and Trade, together with the Ministry of Construction and the Ministry of Natural Resources, to analyze all identified cases of poor equipment performance within one month and compile a register of best practices for the design and construction of wastewater treatment facilities, identifying specific manufacturers of high-quality equipment.

Dmitry Patrushev also instructed the Government to submit proposals for additional regulatory frameworks for wastewater treatment equipment manufacturers to improve their quality.

Incident No. 55 "Wastewater Treatment Facilities" was established on June 15, 2024, to coordinate the construction and reconstruction of wastewater treatment facilities implemented as part of the national "Ecology" project, as well as to ensure the operation of these facilities and the achievement of wastewater treatment standards. Work is currently under consideration at 145 facilities in 19 regions.

When working in an incident format, a special project management system deployed within the Government Coordination Center is used. It allows for the prompt coordination of participants' actions and real-time monitoring of project implementation.

As part of his participation in the XIII International Sports Forum "Russia – Power of Sports," Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko spoke at an open lesson, awarded the winners of the "Victory Cup. Volga" phygital tournament, and reviewed the exhibition stands.

The forum's exhibition showcased the achievements of the country's entire sports industry, the latest developments aimed at developing innovative sports, and reflected the history of Russian athletes' achievements. Samara Region Governor Vyacheslav Fedorishchev also participated in the events.

At the Solidarity Samara Arena, Dmitry Chernyshenko, Russian Minister of Education Sergey Kravtsov, and President of the All-Russian Phygital Sports Federation Nikita Nagorny spoke at an open lesson, "Phygital Sports: The Future That Came Today," and also interacted with the athletes themselves.

"In 2024, our President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin presented the world with a previously unknown sporting format. The new "phygital" movement, which is currently developing independently, has become international and already united 120 countries. It is a combination of physical, traditional, and modern digital sports. To be successful, you need to develop both in the virtual and physical worlds. That's the key," the Deputy Prime Minister explained.

He recalled that the second Future Games will be held in Abu Dhabi in December.

"Today, we didn't just hold a lesson – we opened the doors to the future for thousands of Russian schoolchildren. Our goal is to show children and young people that sport can be incredibly engaging, modern, and technologically advanced. Phygital sport is the future that has arrived today; it's a reality we're building together. We want children to view the digital environment as more than just a leisure activity. By introducing such lessons, we're not only engaging young people in regular physical education but also shaping a generation that will possess the universal skills for success in both the real and virtual worlds," noted Nikita Nagorny.

At the Ministry of Sport's stand, in the presence of Dmitry Chernyshenko, five cooperation agreements were signed between the All-Russian Phygital Sports Federation and the Russian Ministry of Education, the Russian Automobile Federation, the Russian Basketball Federation, the Russian Ice Hockey Federation, and the Russian Football Union.

"Our key goal is to cultivate well-rounded individuals prepared for the challenges of the modern world. Today, we are taking an important strategic step by integrating traditional physical education with digital technologies. Phygital is the sport of the future. We are confident that its integration into the school curriculum will not only improve students' health but also foster their strategic thinking, team spirit, and digital literacy, thereby developing in-demand competencies," emphasized Minister of Education Sergey Kravtsov.

The agreement provides for the joint development of methodological recommendations and educational programs, the implementation of pilot projects in educational institutions, the organization of phygital sports competitions and festivals among schoolchildren and students of secondary vocational education, as well as the training and professional development of teaching staff to work in this new field.

The Deputy Prime Minister, along with Sports Minister Mikhail Degtyarev and Samara Region Governor Vyacheslav Fedorishchev, inspected the stands of the forum's partners, Russian regions, and participating sports federations.

Particular attention was given to the Olympic torch exhibition, the stands of the Ministry of Sport and the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Russian Weightlifting Federation, the State Council Commission on Physical Culture and Sports, the Samara and Chelyabinsk regions, St. Petersburg, new regions, the Russian Premier League, SMP Racing, Russian Railways, and other companies and organizations.

Dmitry Chernyshenko was introduced to the Samara Region stand, which consists of several interactive zones, including a training ground, the "Motostadium" installation, the "Heart of Samara" art object, an exhibition about clubs and champions, a multimedia exhibition about the region's industrial potential, a basketball drone, and more.

"The forum rightfully holds a special place among Russia's leading sports and business platforms, bringing together government officials, representatives of the sporting elite, experts, and businesses. This year, the forum brought together participants from 51 countries, confirming its status as a significant platform for international dialogue and cooperation in sports. As Russian President Vladimir Putin has said, 'In Russia, we see sport as one of the key paths to achieving national development goals, a powerful resource capable of improving people's quality of life, opening up new horizons for self-realization, helping them believe in themselves and achieve success—both in sports and in life in general,'" said Mikhail Degtyarev, Minister of Sport and Chairman of the Russian Olympic Committee.

Dmitry Chernyshenko, Vyacheslav Fedorishchev, and Nikita Nagorny also awarded the winners of the "Victory Cup. Volga" tournament. Special military operation soldiers currently undergoing rehabilitation participated in the phygital sports competition, dedicated to the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War.

"Fighters who suffered or were wounded while defending our homeland's interests in the Northern Military District are using this new format to gain unprecedented benefits in terms of recovery speed, new emotions, and meaning in life. I am very pleased that the feedback we are receiving from our fighters truly confirms this. We also have confirmation from our esteemed doctors and rehabilitation specialists who note accelerated recovery, allowing our fighters to live full lives despite the losses they have suffered. This is precisely the vision set by our President, Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin. And we will continue to support you and work towards this goal," the Deputy Prime Minister noted.

It's worth noting that the large-scale phygital tournament "Victory Cup. Volga" is one of the key sporting events of the 13th International Forum "Russia – Country of Sports." The tournament brought together over 100 participants of the special military operation, including Heroes of Russia. The tournament demonstrated the potential of innovative sports for the social adaptation and rehabilitation of special military forces.

"The Victory Cup Volga tournament has become one of the key sporting events of the Russia – Power of Sport forum. Its participants are our heroes, defenders of the Fatherland, of whom we are proud. We bow low to them for their resilience and fortitude. The Samara Region has always been the heart of the Volga region and the region that ensures the defense of the state, the development of industry, and new technologies. I am grateful to the competition organizers for our joint achievement of demonstrating the high level at which such tournaments should be held," emphasized Vyacheslav Fedorishchev.

Dmitry Chernyshenko and Vyacheslav Fedorishchev also inspected the site of the future world-class campus. President Vladimir Putin has directed that Russia should have at least 25 such campuses, and at least 40 by 2036. They are being created as part of the national project "Youth and Children."
