The opening of the new establishment took place with the participation of the rector of SPbPU Andrey Rudskoy. He congratulated the students on the beginning of the new academic year and recalled that he himself once loved "fast food".

Dear guys, to study successfully, everything around you needs to be good: lectures, teachers, mentors, group, friends, health, and, of course, food. Here they will prepare food that maintains energy and does not take much time, while it is filling, and knowledge goes well on a full stomach. Therefore, we are organizing a network of fast food centers at the university, where it is cozy, tasty and decent, and the price-quality ratio is very decent, – said Andrey Rudskoy.

The Rector of SPbPU noted that the Polytechnic University is counting on long-term cooperation with the company "DTKP" (brand "Gamma Vkusa"), to which several food outlets in the Polytechnic University have been outsourced, and on expanding the range of services. For example, the possibility of food delivery around the campus, or pre-ordering to avoid standing in line, is being considered. Also, perhaps, dishes with a special Polytechnic flavor will appear on the menu of these cafes. "Pancakes of a first-year student" or "Gagarinsky borscht", for example. Competition for the best name for shawarma and burger it's already going in the official Polytechnic group.

Every year on September 7, the International Day of Clean Air is celebrated, which emphasizes the importance of initiatives aimed at improving air quality. Rosneft, as part of its environmental activities, allocated more than 4 billion rubles in 2024 to protect the atmospheric air.

Responsible attitude to the environment is one of the key principles of Rosneft's activities. The Company's "green" investments by the end of 2024 reached 74 billion rubles and exceeded the level of the previous year by 16%. In just three years, Rosneft has allocated almost 200 billion rubles for environmental protection.

In support of the Federal Clean Air Project and as part of promoting Russia’s National Development Goals, the Company has developed an action plan that provides for the creation of a corporate program to reduce industrial emissions.

Rosneft subsidiaries implement a set of measures in the course of their production activities, which include investment projects with an environmental effect, and the use of the most effective environmental protection equipment. The company develops and implements air quality control systems, installs stationary air quality monitoring posts, and equips mobile environmental laboratories with modern equipment.

The Company's key strategic benchmark is achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. For several years, Rosneft has been implementing a program to control fugitive emissions of methane and other hydrocarbons. In 2024, over 3,000 km of pipelines were inspected by aerial monitoring. In addition, over 800 objects were inspected at the production sites of enterprises using ground monitoring equipment.

The Company's environmental goals include increasing production of natural gas as a fuel with lower greenhouse gas emissions, as well as developing and launching new products that enable consumers to reduce their environmental impact, reduce their carbon footprint and improve the efficiency of their production facilities.

Rosneft traditionally pays great attention to the preservation and restoration of natural resources, including forests. Forest plantations help clean the air and are a natural absorber of greenhouse gases. In 2024, the Company's enterprises planted over 11 million trees of various species in the regions of their presence. In total, Rosneft has planted about 37 million seedlings over the past three years.

CAIRO, Sept. 8 (Xinhua) — Egypt has appointed 48 female judges to the State Council for the first time under a program for young professionals, demonstrating the country's efforts to empower women and reform the judiciary.

The move supports the comprehensive development of Egypt's judicial system amid digital transformation and ongoing institutional modernization, according to a statement released by the State Council on Sunday.

“Today’s historic step reflects the country’s commitment to empowering women and promoting their participation in the judiciary,” the statement said, citing Egypt’s State Council Chairman Osama Shalaby.

Their appointment marks another important step in the empowerment of women in the judicial sector following March 2022, when 98 women were sworn in as State Council judges for the first time in Egypt's history through transfers from other judicial bodies.

Founded in 1946, the State Council was reaffirmed by Egypt’s 2014 constitution as an independent judicial body with jurisdiction over administrative disputes, disciplinary cases, appeals, and challenges to its own decisions. It also has the power to issue legal opinions, examine and draft bills and regulations, and examine draft contracts involving state or public entities. –0–
