First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov made a working visit to Krasnoyarsk Krai. The First Deputy Prime Minister, accompanied by the region's governor Mikhail Kotyukov and the general director of the Roscosmos state corporation Dmitry Bakanov, familiarized himself with the production capabilities of the company AO Reshetnev (part of the Roscosmos State Corporation).

The company's CEO Evgeny Nesterov reported to Denis Manturov on the creation and launch of the first domestic assembly line for spacecraft weighing up to 300 kg and their components at the company. The line uses robotic and automated control systems, such as smart tools, machine vision based on neural networks, and visualization of the process of performing production operations. Serial production will reduce the time it takes to create spacecraft, increase labor productivity, and quickly form multi-satellite orbital groups, providing consumers throughout Russia with high-quality satellite services.

"Roscosmos was tasked with establishing a conveyor production of satellites. Today, together with you, we have seen that this task has been accomplished. Work is already underway to form orders to load this line. I believe that our colleagues have generally coped with this. This will be a good help in accelerating the implementation of the national project "Space" and launching more satellites for various tasks, including remote sensing of the Earth," Denis Manturov noted.

He was shown the stages of production of communications and navigation satellites at different stages of production, the company's promising developments – a modular unified micro-class platform, new design solutions for the creation of GLONASS spacecraft, and the RS-30M satellite communications subscriber terminal.

"I am confident that the region can become a platform for implementing technological leadership projects in the interests of national development. We see particular potential in creating a national satellite construction center. This will be facilitated by the reserve accumulated at the enterprises of Krasnoyarsk and Zheleznogorsk, and the strong educational and scientific base of Reshetnev University and the laboratories of the scientific center of the Russian Academy of Sciences. On this basis, we are ready to form a center capable of solving a full cycle of tasks – from the development of the latest spacecraft to the implementation of advanced technologies within the framework of the national project. In this matter, we count on the support of the federal center – this is the most important thing," said Mikhail Kotyukov.

Denis Manturov visited the Krasnoyarsk Machine-Building Plant, which produces rocket and space technology and equipment for the fuel and energy complex, and discussed with members of the delegation and the management of the enterprise issues of staffing the industry and the implementation of the state defense order.

In addition, the First Deputy Prime Minister visited the scientific and technological center of the Krasnoyarsk Non-Ferrous Metals Plant, one of the world's largest producers of precious metals. He noted the prospects and demand for the technology of extracting rare earth metals.

Another area implemented by Krasnosvetmet is a unique technology for extracting lithium. The First Deputy Prime Minister was shown the process of extracting the chemical element from hydromineral raw materials, such as salar brines, associated waters of oil fields and geothermal sources. This technology is two to three times more economical than traditional technology and allows extracting lithium even from raw materials with extremely low metal concentrations, from 5 mg/l.

The event was also attended by First Deputy Minister of Transport Valentin Ivanov, Head of Russian Railways Oleg Belozerov, General Director of Aeroflot Sergei Aleksandrovsky, Governor of Sakhalin Region Valery Limarenko, and Head of the Republic of Buryatia Alexey Tsydenov.

In his speech, the Deputy Prime Minister spoke in detail about the development of the main transport routes in the Far East.

An important megaproject for the development of connectivity and exploration of the Far East and Siberia is the construction of the Eastern Polygon of Railways. From 2013 to 2024, the carrying capacity of the Baikal-Amur and Trans-Siberian Railways increased from 98 million to 180 million tons. Preparations are underway for the construction of the second Severomuysky, Kodarsky and Kuznetsovsky tunnels, as well as a bridge across the Amur in Komsomolsk-on-Amur.

By 2030, measures are planned to modernize the airfield infrastructure of 29 airports located in the Far Eastern Federal District. This year, preferential tariffs have been extended for residents of the Arctic zone under three subsidy programs. In 2025, it is planned to transport about 1.6 million passengers along routes within the Far Eastern Federal District.

There are 21 seaports operating in the Far Eastern Federal District. The volume of cargo transshipment in the seaports of the Far Eastern Federal District increased by 1.7% in the first half of 2025 and amounted to 119 million tons. As part of the national project "Efficient Transport System", activities are being implemented in the ports of Vostochny, Korsakov, and Anadyr. In 2024, facilities were commissioned in the ports of Vladivostok (the Sukhodol terminal), which gave a capacity increase of 7.5 million tons, and Vanino (two stages of the Port Elga terminal) – the capacity increase will be 12 million tons. In 2026, it is planned to commission a marine transshipment complex for liquefied natural gas in the Kamchatka Territory.

There are currently 59 checkpoints operating in the Far Eastern Federal District. Vehicle throughput in the first half of this year increased by 13% compared to the same period in 2024. Comprehensive modernization of 5 priority checkpoints has been completed. By 2030, it is planned to complete the modernization of another 26 checkpoints. This will increase throughput capacity in key sections of the state border by at least two times.

Vitaly Savelyev also touched upon the implementation of the national project "Unmanned Aircraft Systems" – in general and in the Far East. The Government Decree in Russia established airspace class H, which simplifies the use of UAS at an altitude of up to 150 m and within the established routes at an altitude of up to 3050 m. The Ministry of Transport of Russia has formed the necessary regulatory framework for expanding the scenarios for the use of UAS. The Pushisty airfield on Sakhalin was the first in the country to receive the status of the first official drone port. Also last year, Sakhalin hosted the educational intensive course "Archipelago". Sakhalin Oblast is one of the leading regions not only in the Far East, but also in the country. Successful local practices need to be scaled up in other regions.

The Deputy Prime Minister recalled that in 2023, Russian President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin designated the development of the Far Eastern regions as an absolute priority for the entire 21st century. "The Government of the Russian Federation constantly supplements the extensive system of state support measures, implements complex and capital-intensive projects, improving the quality of life of citizens and the growth of business activity. The Far East of our country is the most important strategic region, for the sustainable development of which the accelerated development of the transport system is necessary. This work will be continued," Vitaly Savelyev noted.
