The National Center "Russia" hosted the premiere of the animated series "Technolike." The project was created by YARKO with the support of the Institute of Russian Innovative Cultures (IRI). The screening was held for students of the Movement of the First.

"Technolike" is a cyberpunk story about a teenage girl. She and her friends are trying to navigate the digital world and learn how to communicate online. After watching the series, we had a conversation with the project team about how animation can help develop cybersecurity skills in children. Through the series, the teenager experiences the situation alongside the characters and draws their own conclusions. And this is more powerful than dry instructions or any "don'ts" from adults.

Gazprom-Media Holding is a founding member of the Alliance for Child Protection in the Digital Environment, which was established in Russia in 2021.

A cooperation agreement between Gazprom-Media Holding and the Movement of the First was signed in 2023. It became part of the Holding's PROfnavigator project, which helps young people choose a career in the media industry.

The city has approved a pilot project for integrated territorial development (ITD) for residential development in the southwest of the capital, Cheryomushki. The corresponding resolution was adopted by the Moscow Government, announced the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Urban Development Policy and Construction. Vladimir Efimov.

"The city has approved a pilot residential development project on Garibaldi Street in Cheryomushki, which begins the process of further renewing the capital's residential real estate stock. The majority of residents of two five-story buildings located on a 1.09-hectare site voted to include their homes in the project. They will move into comfortable apartments in a modern new building in the same area. The old buildings will be demolished, and in their place will be built a residential complex with a landscaped courtyard, totaling approximately 47,000 square meters, to implement the renovation program. The apartment space will be approximately 28,700 square meters," said Vladimir Efimov.

The project is planned for completion within five years. The Moscow Renovation Fund will act as the operator of the residential development. The site is located at 17 Garibaldi Street, Buildings 3 and 4, near the Novye Cheryomushki station on the Kaluzhsko-Rizhskaya metro line.

"The new building will be erected on the site of two five-story buildings built in 1960, each with 80 apartments. Now, residents of these buildings, as well as those participating in the renovation program, will have a real opportunity to improve their living conditions. The city will offer them the opportunity to move to equivalent apartments in the new complex, which is scheduled for completion in 2026. It will be located within walking distance of their old buildings, next to the same Novye Cheryomushki metro station. This means residents won't have to change their lifestyle; they will continue to enjoy the same infrastructure within walking distance," said the Moscow Government Minister and Head of the Department of Urban Development Policy.

Vladislav Ovchinsky.

On behalf of Sergei Sobyanin's program for resettling residents from dilapidated housing is being scaled up and accelerated. It currently affects over 5,000 old buildings. Residential buildings that were not included in the 2017 renovation program can be resettled through the Housing Development Committee (HDC). The pilot projects are primarily being conducted on buildings whose residents have applied to the city to participate in the renovation program, as well as on buildings that are likely to soon become uninhabitable.

Earlier, Sergei Sobyanin stated that the renewal process housing stock In Moscow, the housing market will become permanent, rather than being limited solely to the renovation program. This is intended to enable as many residents as possible to move from outdated buildings to new, comfortable housing with high-quality infrastructure within walking distance. This will create a modern urban environment in the capital that meets the needs of Muscovites.

As part of the integrated development program for former industrial zones, attractive spaces are being created on inefficiently used and undeveloped sites, seamlessly integrating them into the city's overall environment. Currently, 336 integrated development projects, covering a total area of over 4,200 hectares, are at various stages of development and implementation in the capital. The program is being implemented. on behalf of Sergei Sobyanin.

Washington, December 16 (Xinhua) — The United States, Ukraine, and Europe have reached consensus or significantly narrowed differences on 90 percent of the 20-point peace plan, media reported Monday, citing two senior American officials.

The statements came after US Special Presidential Envoy Steven Witkoff and Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner met with senior Ukrainian and European officials in Berlin on Sunday and Monday to discuss the peace agreement.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, on his page on the social network X, called the Berlin talks a "first draft," warning of the presence of "destructive" elements that must be eliminated.

V. Zelenskyy noted that Ukraine had compromised by accepting strict security guarantees in lieu of NATO membership. However, it remains unclear what specific U.S. security obligations this entails and whether any agreements similar to Article 5 of the NATO Charter would require ratification by the U.S. Senate for a country that is not a member of the alliance.

At the same time, the issue of territorial concessions remains a stumbling block. V. Zelenskyy stated that it is impossible for Ukraine to give up territories, primarily in the Donetsk region, that Russia did not capture during the fighting.

On Monday, D. Trump said he believed an end to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine was closer than ever, while noting that negotiations remained “difficult.”

Negotiators plan to meet in the United States this weekend, a U.S. official said during a telephone briefing with the media.
