The Government Coordination Centre held a defense of projects and the presentation of diplomas to participants in the operational level of the programme for the development of a management personnel reserve in the field of science, technology and higher education.

Aide to the President of Russia Andrei Fursenko, Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko, Chairman of the Council of the Federal Territory "Sirius", Head of the Educational Foundation "Talent and Success" Elena Shmeleva, Rector of the Presidential Academy Alexei Komissarov congratulated the participants and presented them with diplomas.

"With each stream, the quality of the participants' work grows. None of the teams approached the task formally; each wanted to create something new, something of their own. As a parting word, I would like to note: it is very important that in all projects that you will supplement and implement in the future, there is an emphasis not only on the process, but also on the final result. Of course, we all want to achieve some personal result. But it is very important that it is comparable in scale and significance to what is necessary for the interests of the country," said Andrey Fursenko.

Dmitry Chernyshenko thanked the Presidential Academy and Sirius University for organizing the program. He also noted the importance of the connections developed by the participants, their abilities and decision-making skills.

"I am glad that our country has acquired even more advanced, more effective managers. They will help domestic science, which, like a huge ship, continues to move forward and has great potential, to become even more effective. We sincerely count on it. The opportunities that were given to the participants are one of the most valuable, effective investments in development, increasing the managerial potential in the field of science. So, good luck, let's continue working together," the Deputy Prime Minister said.

Among them are 6 rectors and 10 vice-rectors of universities, a deputy chairman of the regional government, a deputy governor, regional ministers, 24 doctors of science, 46 candidates of science, and 4 corresponding members of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Addressing the graduates, Elena Shmeleva singled out the teams she particularly liked and invited them to internships at the federal territory of Sirius.

"Each of the project participants underwent a serious selection and intensive training in eight modules of the program, which took place at leading educational and technological sites in Russia. All the students are experienced managers. And it is very important and responsible that it was the Presidential Academy that became the place where they were able to unite into a single professional community to solve the current problems of Russian science and education," said Alexey Komissarov, Rector of the Presidential Academy.

The participants were also congratulated and their projects were commented on by Deputy Minister of Science and Higher Education Denis Sekirinsky, Deputy Head of the Presidential Administration for Scientific and Educational Policy Yulia Linskaya, and Deputy Director for Research at the N.F. Gamaleya National Research Center for Epidemiology and Microbiology Denis Logunov.

The program for the development of a personnel management reserve in the field of science, technology and higher education is being implemented on the instructions of the President of Russia Vladimir Putin on the basis of the Presidential Academy's Graduate School of Management and the Sirius University of Science and Technology in partnership with leading Russian educational centers since 2022.

The goal of the program is to form a community of young managers in the field of science, technology and higher education, united by a common understanding of the challenges facing the country, and possessing the vision, knowledge, skills and motivation for the effective management of scientific organizations, universities, work in federal and regional executive bodies, and technology companies.

Participants in the program include vice-rectors of universities and scientific organizations, heads of research departments of Russian technology companies, heads and deputy heads of regional government bodies overseeing the development of science, education and innovation.

The program consisted of eight educational modules, which were held in Solnechnogorsk, the federal territory "Sirius", in St. Petersburg, the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, Novosibirsk, Irkutsk, Pyatigorsk and Moscow. Participants studied approaches to achieving the goals of scientific and technological development of Russia, the green economy, industrial and natural resource potential of the regions, considered issues of education and science in a multicultural context, and also carried out practical work.

KHARTOUM, July 20 (Xinhua) — Sudan's Foreign Ministry on Saturday condemned new sanctions imposed by the European Union on Sudanese individuals and entities as not in line with "fair legal standards."

The Sudanese Armed Forces cannot be “equated” with “proscribed rebel armed groups,” the ministry said in a statement, calling on the EU to adopt a more balanced approach that takes into account Sudan’s unique national circumstances.

On Friday, the EU imposed sanctions on two individuals and two entities linked to the Sudanese Armed Forces and the paramilitary Rapid Intervention Force (RIF), including an asset freeze, a ban on providing funds or economic resources, directly or indirectly, and a travel ban.

Sudan remains engulfed in conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the RRF, which erupted in April 2023. The fighting has killed tens of thousands of people and displaced millions both inside and outside the country, exacerbating the country's humanitarian crisis. –0–
