A mediation service has been operating in Moscow for over six years, helping to overcome disagreements between loved ones. More than 70 percent of couples who turned to Moscow specialists to resolve a family dispute were able to find a solution and avoid litigation, and in some cases, save their marriage. Now this experience will be implemented throughout the country – the Russian Government supported the Moscow family mediation program. This was reported by Anastasia Rakova, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Social Development.

"We see that even in difficult conflict situations, close people are ready to come to an agreement if they are helped. For this purpose, we launched family mediation in the capital – this is a chance to save a marriage or at least avoid traumatic litigation. Specialists offer methods for resolving disagreements based on dialogue and mutual understanding. The approach has proven not only its relevance, but also its effectiveness. Seven out of 10 couples who turned to mediators were able to resolve family conflicts. Our experience has received high praise at the federal level and will now be available to residents of other regions of the country. The Moscow Center for Mediation and Social and Legal Assistance will act as the coordinator, methodological and practical partner of the initiative. Moscow is the first in the country to implement a mediation mechanism at the state level through city projects and services," said Anastasia Rakova.

The implementation of the Moscow mediation model in the regions is being carried out by the decision of the Government of the Russian Federation within the framework of the Strategy of Actions for the Implementation of Family and Demographic Policy and Support for Large Families in Russia until 2036. Various subjects of the Federation have already expressed interest in the capital's approach. Thus, this year, delegations from the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug – Yugra, Tomsk and Orenburg Regions and Altai Krai visited the Moscow Center for Mediation and Social and Legal Assistance. The experience of Moscow specialists will help create state centers for family mediation: implement this type of support and establish effective work with families in conflict. The capital's mediators will ensure coordination and methodological support for the project.

Mediation is a modern method of conflict resolution with the participation of an independent mediator who helps to build a dialogue. The procedure is used, among other things, in divorce, in matters related to the upbringing of children, property and in other sensitive situations. The method is based on equality, voluntariness and confidentiality, and the concluded mediation agreements have legal force. They help to ensure the implementation of decisions made without lengthy litigation.

Save your family and improve relationships with children: how Muscovites are helped by the mediation service

Muscovites can get free mediation assistance at the city's family centers or at the Center for Mediation and Social and Legal Assistance. Since 2024, a convenient project based on the My Documents government service centers has been in effect: couples who have filed for divorce have the opportunity to receive a consultation with a psychologist and a mediator.

More information about the mediation procedure and the work of the centers can be found inthematic landing on the official website Department of Labor and Social Protection of the Population of the City of Moscow.

WASHINGTON, July 23 (Xinhua) — The United States has reached a trade deal with Japan that includes a 15 percent tariff on Japanese goods, U.S. President Donald Trump said on social media on Tuesday.

Japan will invest $550 billion in the United States, which will receive 90 percent of the profits, he said, adding that the deal will create hundreds of thousands of jobs.

"Japan will open its country to trade, including cars and trucks, rice and some other agricultural products, and other goods. Japan will pay the United States equivalent tariffs of 15 percent," the president wrote.

In a recent letter to Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba, the U.S. leader threatened to raise tariffs on Japan to 25 percent from August 1, up from the 24 percent tariff announced on April 2.

As one of the United States' major trading partners, Japan has been tough in bilateral trade negotiations.

According to the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative, the U.S.-Japan merchandise trade deficit in 2024 was $68.5 billion, with imports from Japan reaching $148.2 billion and exports to Japan reaching $79.7 billion.

D. Trump also announced a trade deal with the Philippines after meeting with the country's President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. earlier on Tuesday.

The White House did not release details of the trade deals with the Philippines and Japan.

On Tuesday, U.S. officials released more details about the trade deal with Indonesia, which was announced July 15. Indonesia will eliminate about 99 percent of tariff barriers on a full range of U.S. manufactured, food, and agricultural goods, while the United States will impose a 19 percent tariff on Indonesian imports. Jakarta will also lift restrictions on exports to the U.S. of manufactured goods, including key minerals.

Earlier in July, Trump pushed back the tariffs' implementation date from July 9 to August 1 amid ongoing negotiations with the European Union and other major trading partners. –0–

Exclusive: The SCO Media and Analytical Centers Summit will allow us to consider practices for countering challenges and build a model of information cooperation — head of the Belarus Segodnya publishing house

Minsk, July 23 /Xinhua/ — The SCO Media and Analytical Centers Summit will allow us to consider practices for countering challenges and build a model of information cooperation. This was stated recently in an interview with a Xinhua correspondent by Dmitry Zhuk, Director and Editor-in-Chief of the Belarus Segodnya Publishing House.

Speaking about his expectations for the upcoming summit in the Chinese province of Henan, D. Zhuk noted that China's thorough, substantive and comprehensively balanced approach to any undertaking ends in success. "Therefore, expectations for the upcoming key event are the most optimistic. I am confident that the summit will allow us to consider the best practices for countering various external challenges and build a new effective model of information cooperation in the international arena," he said.

The agency's interlocutor pointed out that the media today are faced with incessant hybrid aggression from the increasingly anachronistic collective West, the growing apathy of the readership provoked by this aggression – its fakes, lies, emotional overheating. In his opinion, the emergence of artificial intelligence has also played a role: new technologies, generated fakes, are already being tested on us.

"And therefore, the exchange and cooperation of media within the SCO is a serious and very effective tool for countering such trends. This is the formation of the "Shanghai spirit" in the media environment, if you will. With the principles of mutual respect, recognition of the diversity of cultures and civilizations in the modern world, respect for the independent choice of each nation of its social system and development model. And most importantly – with the desire for joint prosperity, not confrontation," the expert explained.

Assessing the role of the SCO in the modern world, the editor-in-chief noted that the organization is in many ways fundamental and influences the further development of global politics and economic cooperation.

The SCO has enormous potential and is very consistent: it initially stated that the world order in the 21st century should be based on mechanisms for collective resolution of key problems, the rule of law, and the democratization of international relations,” added D. Zhuk.

In 2024, Belarus officially became a member of the SCO. D. Zhuk quoted Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko, who emphasized at a meeting with SCO Secretary General Nurlan Yermekbayev on January 27, 2025: “We will work in every possible way to ensure that the Organization not only develops, but also strengthens. This is very important for us. We see the SCO as an organization that in the future will definitely be a serious center of attraction, one might say, a center of power.”

According to D. Zhuk, the "Shanghai spirit" in the modern world is in many ways the quintessence of rational development of humanity. "The Shanghai spirit" of equality regardless of the size of the territory, level of well-being and state power, respect for the position of each state is an example to the whole world of how to implement the development of countries in national interests," explained D. Zhuk.

He also noted that Belarus has consistently implemented exactly these principles and norms throughout its years of independence. “Therefore, the country not only has every right to count on a comfortable stay in the SCO, but is also capable of further strengthening its quality component, influence and effectiveness,” the agency’s interlocutor noted.

In his opinion, China played a comprehensive role during its presidency of the SCO. “It should be noted that throughout the SCO’s existence, China has consistently put forward extremely important initiatives in the areas of security, politics, economics, and the humanitarian dimension. Figuratively speaking, China has not only cut the SCO diamond, but also constantly makes it sparkle with new facets. And it is very gratifying that Belarus intends to contribute to this,” D. Zhuk emphasized. –0–

Happy birthday to Vitaly Lapshenkov!

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

No bad weather can darken this environment, because today the State University of Management celebrates the birthday of its vice-rector Vitaly Lapshenkov.

Vitaly Vladimirovich is responsible for the university campus, the face of GUU. And judging by how popular posts with photos of the buildings are in our social networks, students really like this face. But a large university is not only a facade, it is also a lot of technical communications that need to be maintained in perfect order. These systems are updated on a regular basis. For example, in the spring, heating system refill stations were installed in the heating points of the Main Academic Building, Dormitory No. 2 and Dormitory No. 6. The birthday boy not only cares about all of us, but also regularly participates in the "GUU-SVOim" campaign, sending humanitarian aid to the special military operation zone and border areas. In addition, he successfully defends the honor of the university at sports tournaments. In early June, at the V Billiard Sports Championship among rectors and vice-rectors of universities in Moscow and the Moscow Region, Vitaly Lapshenkov once again proved that he is the best.

We wish our Vice-Rector further professional and sporting success, interesting family trips and a complete absence of emergency situations anywhere. Happy birthday!
