Order dated August 27, 2025 No. 2328-r

The government has identified areas where law enforcement monitoring will be carried out in 2026. It consists of collecting, analyzing and evaluating information on how current regulations work in practice. Based on the results of monitoring, decisions are made on improving legal regulation in certain sectors.

The monitoring plan is formed by the Ministry of Justice based on proposals from ministries, departments and regions and is approved by a Government order.

Thus, in 2026, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Finance, the Federal Bailiff Service, Rosfinmonitoring and the FSB, with the participation of the Investigative Committee and the Bank of Russia, will assess the application of legislation on combating fraud using banking instruments. This initiative was put forward by the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation.

In addition, at the suggestion of this department, it is also planned to monitor law enforcement in the field of mining activities, the legal status of miners and persons organizing the activities of mining pools. This work will be carried out by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Economic Development, the Federal Tax Service and Rosfinmonitoring with the participation of the Investigative Committee and the Bank of Russia.

The Ministry of Justice, the Federal Bailiff Service and Roskomnadzor, at the initiative of the latter, will have to assess law enforcement in the area of restricting access to information distributed on the Internet that defames honor, dignity or business reputation.

Another point of the plan concerns the assessment of regulations in terms of the organization and functioning of specially protected natural areas.

GUIYANG, Aug. 28 (Xinhua) — China's cumulative intelligent computing power currently stands at 780,000 petaflops, ranking second in the world in the field, Liu Lehong, head of the National Data Administration, said Thursday.

Liu Lehong made the disclosure at the opening ceremony of the 2025 China International Big Data Industry Expo held in Guiyang, capital of southwest China's Guizhou Province.

The country continues to accelerate the construction of data transmission infrastructure, and as of the end of July this year, 25 city-level operation nodes had been established across the country, he said.

The progress is driven by China's "Eastern Data, Western Computing" project, which has become a strategic project to boost the country's productivity, Liu Lehong said, adding that China's eight state-owned computing centers currently account for more than 60 percent of new computing power, with intelligent computing power reaching 620,000 petaflops.

As the initiator of this project, Guizhou Province has focused on building the country's leading computing power center in recent years. In particular, the province has successfully built the world's first 400G all-optical computing power channel, which was announced at the aforementioned ceremony in Guiyang.

The three-day EXPO, which runs until August 30, features a wide range of events, including exchange meetings and specialized venues, with more than 16,000 guests and 375 enterprises from China and abroad participating. -0-
