  • MIL-OSI Russia: Alexander Novak: The entrepreneurship sector adapts to new challenges as quickly as possible

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Government of the Russian Federation – An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    The President and the Government of Russia pay great attention to the development of the SME sector. Over the past few years, its share in GDP has grown by several percent and, according to the latest data, is 21.7%. The key task is to ensure high-quality growth of the sector, an increase in the income of SME workers at a higher rate in relation to GDP growth. Deputy Prime Minister of Russia Alexander Novak said this during the plenary session “The Role of SMEs in Achieving New National Goals” of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum – 2025.

    According to him, small and medium-sized businesses have demonstrated better adaptation to new challenges and uncertainty compared to other sectors of the economy.

    “SMEs are better adapted to ensure the formation of new transport and logistics chains, to ensure the supply of goods for export and import, the production of necessary products within the framework of import substitution, within the framework of the goals that are set for infrastructural changes in our economy,” noted Alexander Novak.

    This was largely made possible by the successful implementation of the national project to support entrepreneurship: almost every second Russian is employed in SMEs.

    “One of the indicators of the national project was the growth of the number of entrepreneurs to 25 million people. In fact, according to the results of last year, statistics show that more than 29 million people are already working in this sector. This is about 40% of all those employed in the economy,” the Deputy Prime Minister emphasized.

    During his speech, Alexander Novak also outlined the current challenges facing SMEs. Firstly, this is a more active participation in achieving technological leadership and sovereignty, national goals for economic development. Secondly, in the context of historically low unemployment, increased labor productivity will not only resolve the issue of competition, but also increase the efficiency of the economy as a whole. Finally, active integration of digital technologies will allow more efficient solutions to be introduced into production processes.

    The updated support measures within the current federal project will facilitate business development. Their fine-tuning by the Ministry of Economic Development took into account the life cycle of small and medium-sized businesses.

    “For start-up businesses, these are microloans; it is planned to attract 1.6 trillion rubles by 2030. For mature companies, this is targeted provision of loans, umbrella guarantees of the SME Corporation. For businesses that are ready to enter the public market and attract investment, the state provides support in the form of subsidizing the costs of preparing for an IPO,” noted Alexander Novak, adding that the “traditional” business support infrastructure will also be developed: the digital platform “MSP.RF”, regional centers “My Business”, industrial and technology parks.

    The need for entrepreneurs to keep up with current business development trends and actively implement the practice of working on digital platforms was also confirmed by the Minister of Economic Development of Russia Maxim Reshetnikov.

    “The merger of the Growth Platform program and the My Business centers will allow entrepreneurs to be trained in modern trends. The world is changing so quickly that it is important to move forward, not to catch up,” the head of the Ministry of Economic Development emphasized.

    The session was also attended by the Minister of Industry and Trade of the Kingdom of Bahrain Abdullah Adel Abdullah Fakhro, the founder of Wildberries, head of RWB Tatyana Kim, the president of the All-Russian public organization of small and medium-sized businesses “Opora Rossii” Alexander Kalinin, entrepreneurs who shared their experience of doing business.

    Construction of a bypass road around the city of Mariupol.

    In order to form a single backbone network of Russian highways and develop the federal highway R-280 “Novorossiya” in the Donetsk People’s Republic, it is planned to build a bypass road around the city of Mariupol. At present, a contract has been signed and specialists have begun preparatory work, Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin reported.

    “The federal highway R-280 “Novorossiya” is one of the important directions of the south of the country. It is part of the Azov Transport Ring. Last year, the highway began to be expanded in stages. And from the border of the Rostov region to Mariupol – this is 37 km – it became a completely four-lane. Now they are expanding new sections with a length of about 70 km – from Mariupol to the border with the Zaporozhye region and further to Berdyansk. Preparatory work has also begun as part of the construction of a bypass road around Mariupol with a length of more than 30 km. It will not only increase the throughput capacity threefold – up to 40 thousand cars per day, but also significantly reduce travel time. In addition, the quality of life of local residents will improve due to a decrease in noise and pollution levels,” said Marat Khusnullin.

    The Deputy Prime Minister added that the Mariupol bypass project envisages the construction of 6 multi-level interchanges, 14 overpasses and three bridges. For traffic safety, oncoming traffic flows will be separated by a barrier fence, and outdoor electric lighting is planned along the entire route. The construction of the facility is planned to be completed by the end of 2028.

    Source: Government of the Russian Federation – An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    The meeting took place as part of the working visit of the Vice President of the Republic of South Africa Paul Mashatile to the Russian Federation.

    M. Mishustin: Good afternoon, dear Mr. Mashatile! Dear friends!

    Welcome to the Government House of the Russian Federation. I know that this is your first visit to the Russian Federation as Vice President of South Africa, although you have been to Russia several times before. And I would like to welcome you personally and your delegation to Moscow, to the Russian Federation.

    We highly value the trusting and meaningful dialogue with the Republic of South Africa. Russian President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin and South African President Mr. Ramaphosa are in constant contact – both bilaterally and at international venues. And, of course, first and foremost in the BRICS association.

    We attach great importance to expanding cooperation with the Republic of South Africa. It is based on the principles of a comprehensive strategic partnership, mutual respect and consideration of each other’s interests.

    Through governments, we ensure the implementation of agreements between the leaders of Russia and South Africa on expanding cooperation. We are talking (we have already briefly exchanged opinions) about industry, energy, agriculture, the digital economy and, of course, humanitarian cooperation.

    We propose to work out new cooperation projects in a mixed intergovernmental committee. On the Russian side, it is headed by the Minister of Natural Resources and Environment Alexander Kozlov.

    In addition to Moscow, I know that you plan to visit St. Petersburg and take part in the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum. It is very important that the forum will host a special session on the development of business and investment cooperation between Russia and South Africa. I am confident that this will contribute to the restoration of business contacts, the emergence of new ideas and initiatives that will strengthen our cooperation.

    A few words about the humanitarian sphere. We are interested in cooperation here too, of course. First of all, in the area of personnel training. South African citizens study at leading Russian universities. They choose sought-after professions of engineers, doctors, and IT specialists. We are happy about this. We consider it very important to hold joint events in the field of culture and art on a regular basis. Last year, the Days of Russian Spiritual Culture were held in South Africa for the first time. And this year we will hold a Festival of Russian Culture.

    Dear Mr. Mashatile, I am ready to discuss with you the most important issues of cooperation between Russia and South Africa.

    First Deputy Prime Minister of Russia Denis Manturov took part in the panel session of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum “Scenarios of Technological Repatriation: the Role and Place of Foreign Companies in the Russian Market.”

    In 2022, a number of foreign companies from unfriendly countries unilaterally terminated cooperation with Russian partners, demonstrating their unreliability as business counterparties. At the same time, as Denis Manturov noted, many of them made investments before their departure and left the enterprises in an intermediate stage of localization.

    “Not all foreign investors have made so-called smart investments by investing in the creation of R

    In particular, this affected the packaging segment. The largest manufacturer left the Russian market, which caused interruptions in the supply of thick cardboard and special paints. As Denis Manturov emphasized, the industry managed to ensure import substitution of these products, meeting all consumer demands and simultaneously allowing a number of companies from other industries to gain new competencies.

    “Today we can say that our management is able to cope with the most difficult challenges and tasks in terms of import substitution. Therefore, in the future, of course, we must be guided by at least several principles of doing business with foreign investors. At the same time, we are definitely not refusing foreign investments. But, as I have already said, it is necessary for these investments to be smart. So that these are investments not just in the creation of capacities, but first of all in the creation of new technological competencies in those areas that still require additional development and investments,” Denis Manturov emphasized.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Sergei Sobyanin launched the tunnel boring for the Biryulevskaya metro line

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    Sergei Sobyanin took part in the ceremony to mark the start of tunnel boring for the Biryulevskaya Line of the Moscow Metro.

    The first (right) transfer tunnel, 1.67 kilometers long and six meters in diameter, will be built between the Ostrov Mechty and Klenovy Bulvar stations. In addition, construction of the second (left) tunnel between them is planned to begin in the coming months. Part of the tunnels will pass under the Moskva River, which is a complex engineering task. Their construction is planned to be completed in the spring of 2026.

    “A historic event in Moscow metro construction: today we are launching the tunneling of a new radius of the Moscow metro – the Biryulevskaya line. Long awaited. Residents of the Biryulyovo Zapadnoye and Biryulyovo Vostochnoye districts have long asked for the metro to be built in their districts,” noted Sergei Sobyanin.

    The new metro line will be put into operation in stages. The construction of the first stage – the ZIL – Kuryanovo section (8.65 kilometers, four stations) is expected to be completed in 2028, and the second stage on the Kuryanovo – Biryulevo section (13.55 kilometers, six stations) – in 2030.

    “Today, the active phase of work begins: the first shield, in a couple of months the second shield will go. In general, of course, the project is very complex. 22 kilometers, 10 stations, four passages under the Moscow River. But I am sure that the builders will cope,” added the Mayor of Moscow.

    It is expected that the first four stations of the line will be used by 32 thousand passengers per day, and after full commissioning, the daily passenger flow will increase to 170 thousand people.

    At the first stage, the Yuzhnoye electric depot will service the trains on the line, and from 2030, the new Biryulevskoye electric depot will service them.

    Biryulevskaya metro line

    “The excavation of the right tunnel of the Biryulevskaya line between the stations “Dream Island” and “Klenovy Bulvar” has begun – the first stage of a large-scale and complex engineering project. As a result, 10 stations will be built. The length of the entire line is 22 kilometers. The first three stations – “ZIL”, “Dream Island” and “Klenovy Bulvar” – have already begun to be built,” Sergei Sobyanin wrote in

    on your telegram channel.

    The Biryulevsky radius will be the seventh new line on the Moscow metro map since 2014. It will mainly serve residents of the south of the capital. The long-awaited metro will first come to the territory of the Biryulevo Vostochnoye and Biryulevo Zapadnoye districts, where about 260 thousand people will live by 2030.

    The first plans to build a metro line in Biryulyovo appeared half a century ago, in the early 1970s, when mass residential construction began on the site of the workers’ settlement of the same name and the adjacent territory, which became part of the capital in 1960. Then, the construction of the Biryulevskaya metro line was included in the General Plan of the City of Moscow for the period up to 2025, approved in 2010. On the instructions of Sergei Sobyanin, projects for the planning of sections of the Biryulevskaya line were developed and approved in 2021–2023.

    It will stretch from ZIL to the Biryulevo East and West districts and as a result will allow:

    — improve transport services for residents (including new neighborhoods being built as part of the renovation program) and the operating developing areas of ZIL, the Danilovsky, Nagatinsky Zaton, Nagatino-Sadovniki, Pechatniki, Moskvorechye-Saburovo, Tsaritsyno, Biryulevo Vostochnoye and Biryulevo Zapadnoye districts with a population of over one million people;

    — improve transport accessibility of the Dream Island amusement park;

    — reduce the load on sections of the Zamoskvoretskaya and Serpukhovsko-Timiryazevskaya metro lines;

    — reduce the intensity of traffic on adjacent streets, which in turn will improve the environmental situation in the listed areas of the city;

    — provide transfers for passengers to the Moscow Central Circle (MCC), the Big Circle, Zamoskvoretskaya and Troitskaya metro lines, as well as to the Paveletskaya direction of the Moscow Railway.

    By 2030, it is planned to create more than 400 thousand jobs at the stations of the Biryulevskaya line.

    The new radial line, more than 22 kilometers long, will include 10 stations:

    — “ZIL” — at the intersection of Likhachev Avenue and Bratyev Ryabushinskikh Street, near the MCC station of the same name (transfer to the MCC and the Troitskaya metro line under construction);

    — “Dream Island” — near the theme park of the same name, between Andropov Avenue and the Southern Landscape Park (transfer to the Zamoskvoretskaya metro line);

    — “Klenovy Boulevard” — along the boulevard of the same name at the intersection with Novinki Street (transfer to the Big Circle Line of the metro);

    — “Kuryanovo” — near the junction of 4th Kuryanovskaya Street and Batyuninskaya Street;

    — “Moskvorechye” – near the junction of Koshkina Street and Kashirskoe Highway;

    — “Kavkazsky Boulevard” — along Kavkazsky Boulevard near the junction with Yerevanskaya Street;

    — “Caspian” — near the intersection of 6th Radial Street and Projected Driveway No. 6631;

    — “Lipetskaya” — along the street of the same name near the junction with Pedagogical Street;

    — “Lebedyanskaya” — along Lipetskaya Street near the junction with Lebedyanskaya Street;

    — “Biryulevo” — along Bulatnikovskaya Street near the junction with Bulatnikovsky Proezd, not far from the Biryulevo-Passazhirskaya railway station.

    Three stations are currently under construction: ZIL, Ostrov Mechty, and Klenovy Bulvar. Work is underway to install enclosing structures and excavate the soil for the pits.

    At all other future stations of the Biryulevskaya line, preparatory work is underway.

    BEIJING, June 18 (Xinhua) — North China’s Shanxi Province has made significant progress in international archaeological cooperation. The Fergana-Shanxi Joint Archaeological Center and the Laboratory for the Protection and Restoration of Cultural Relics were recently opened at Fergana State University in Uzbekistan, according to the provincial government’s official website.

    The parties will cooperate in depth in the areas of joint archaeological research, personnel training, archaeology using scientific technologies and the protection of cultural relics.

    Since the signing of the cooperation agreement between the Shanxi Provincial Institute of Archaeology and Fergana State University in October 2024, the two sides have been actively implementing the provisions of the agreement, developing exchanges and cooperation in various fields.

    In March 2025, they held talks to deepen cooperation and reached a consensus, laying a more solid foundation for future joint work. From May 9 to 12, the Shanxi Provincial Institute of Archaeology, together with three professors and teachers from the History Department of Fergana State University, conducted a 4-day archaeological survey in the Fergana Valley. During the survey, 9 ancient sites from the Bronze and Iron Ages were examined.

    The joint archaeological team applied a variety of advanced technological methods to comprehensively and in detail study the state of preservation of the sites, their cultural appearance, the history of archaeological research, and the relationship between the settlements and burial grounds. This allowed us to obtain key data on the archaeological sites of the region, providing strong support for subsequent in-depth archaeological excavations and research work.

    Fan Wenqian, Director of the Shanxi Provincial Institute of Archaeology, said that promoting cooperation with Fergana State University in such areas as joint archaeological research, personnel training, archaeology using scientific technology, protection of cultural relics, exhibition, etc. is not only a responsibility but also a mission. The cooperation will not only enable a deep study of the historical and cultural content of the Fergana Valley, but also train more professional personnel with an international outlook for the archaeological circles of Shanxi, which will further enhance the international influence of Shanxi archaeology.

    As it became known, from September to October 2025, employees of the Institute of Archaeology of Shanxi Province will again be in the Fergana Valley to conduct joint archaeological work. -0-

    BAGHDAD, June 18 (Xinhua) — Iraqi Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein has called on European powers, particularly France, Britain and Germany, to play a direct and effective role in achieving an immediate ceasefire between Israel and Iran and resuming negotiations, the Iraqi Foreign Ministry said on Wednesday.

    On Tuesday, Hussein held a telephone conversation with his French counterpart Jean-Noel Barrot, during which they discussed the escalation of tensions in the region, the ministry said in a statement.

    According to the statement, both ministers stressed the need for immediate international action to halt military operations by all sides. They warned that further escalation could trigger a wider global economic and humanitarian crisis.

    They also stressed the importance of preventing the conflict from spreading or involving other regional or international actors, which could further threaten world peace and stability.

    TEHRAN, June 18 (Xinhua) — Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Wednesday that the country remains steadfast in the conflict with Israel and will not give in to pressure, Iran’s Tasnim news agency reported.

    In a televised address, he praised the Iranian people’s “steadfast, courageous and timely” response to what he called Israel’s “stupid and malicious aggression.” He said the nation’s resilience reflected “the growth of rationality and spirituality” in the country.

    “The Iranian people will firmly resist the imposed war, just as they will firmly resist the imposed peace. This nation will not surrender to anyone’s pressure,” Tasnim quotes A. Khamenei as saying.

    He also warned that the United States would suffer “irreparable damage” as a result of any military intervention. “Those who know Iran and its history understand that threatening its people is futile,” he said.

    Iran’s supreme leader made the remarks after US President Donald Trump made several social media posts on Tuesday demanding Tehran’s “immediate surrender,” fueling speculation that the US was getting militarily involved in the conflict.

    The conflict between Israel and Iran is continuing for a sixth day. During this time, about 600 people have died in Iran and 24 in Israel. The escalation began after Israel launched surprise airstrikes on Iranian territory on June 13. –0–

    HANGZHOU, June 18 (Xinhua) — A train loaded with 100 standard containers of daily necessities, clothing and accessories, metal fittings and other goods departed from Jinhua City in east China’s Zhejiang Province on Wednesday morning for Turkmenbashi Port in Turkmenistan, from where they will travel by sea to Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan. It is the first train to operate on the Jinhua-Turkmenbashi-Baku trans-Caspian international transport route.

    According to Wu Xiaoping, an employee of the Hangzhou Railway Logistics Center, the train departed from the Jinhua South Station, will leave China through the Khorgos checkpoint /Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Republic, Northwest China/, and pass through Almaty, Tashkent, Ashgabat and other important cities in Central Asia.

    Transportation of goods from Jinhua to Baku involves the use of a multimodal method: “railway – sea – rail”. Using the Turkmenbashi seaport to cross the Caspian Sea instead of the traditional route will reduce the time of transportation of goods by about one day.

    The successful opening of this route will provide enterprises with a more efficient, convenient and reliable logistics solution, and will promote the growth of trade turnover between China and the five Central Asian countries, as well as China and Central and Eastern European countries, Wu Xiaoping added. -0-

    GUANGZHOU, June 18 (Xinhua) — With the deepening of trade and economic cooperation between China and Central Asia, travel to the region has become one of the hottest topics on Chinese social media.

    On the popular Chinese social network Xiaohongshu /Rednote/, the number of views of discussions under posts about both Central Asia itself and travels there has exceeded 50 million and 20 million, respectively.

    A young Chinese blogger’s guide to Central Asia in Xiaohongshu has gained over 5,000 likes and favorites. Local folk customs, magnificent natural landscapes, and unique cultural charm of the Central Asian countries have attracted the attention of social media users.

    According to the Utour travel agency, in the first half of 2025, the tourist flow of Chinese citizens to Central Asia increased by 100 percent year-on-year. Data from Fliggy, an online travel platform owned by Alibaba, showed that since the beginning of 2025, the number of bookings of air tickets from China to Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan increased by 60 percent and 47 percent year-on-year, respectively. Popular destinations for the Chinese were Tashkent, Almaty, Shymkent, Bukhara, etc.

    China has introduced a mutual visa-free regime with Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. Over the past year, the number of mutual trips of citizens of China and Kazakhstan exceeded 1.2 million.

    In March 2025, the new Guangzhou-Almaty air route was officially opened. The development of the tourism industry in these two places has accelerated.

    In early June, Zhang Qun, a resident of Guangzhou City, Guangdong Province, South China, visited Kazakhstan. Although she knew little about the Central Asian country before leaving, the experience left a deep impression on her.

    “The warriors wrestle, ride horses, shoot, and tame eagles, which allowed us to immerse ourselves in a unique culture,” she said.

    She also noted that Almaty and other cities in Kazakhstan are very clean and have a high level of greenery. “There are signs in Russian, English and Chinese at the Almaty airport, and there are no barriers to communication. Local residents are also very friendly to Chinese tourists,” she emphasized.

    As more Chinese tourists travel to Central Asia, more and more Central Asian citizens are also becoming more interested in China.

    On June 1, 2025, a plane with 160 passengers on board landed at Tianshan International Airport in Urumqi, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region /Northwest China/. They became the first passengers from Uzbekistan to visit China since the Agreement between the PRC and the Republic of Uzbekistan on Mutual Exemption from Visa Requirements came into force.

    Under the agreement, citizens of both countries are exempt from visa requirements when entering, leaving or transiting through the territories of the two countries for a period of no more than 30 days for each individual stay and for a total period of no more than 90 days within any 180-day period.

    According to the Chinese travel platform Ctrip, since the beginning of 2025, the number of bookings of inbound tours among Central Asians has increased by 106 percent year-on-year. In particular, among citizens of Uzbekistan, this figure has increased by 164 percent year-on-year. The most popular destinations among tourists from Central Asia were Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Beijing, Urumqi, Xi’an, etc.

    In recent years, the passenger flow from five Central Asian countries at Guangzhou Baiyun Airport has been steadily increasing. Since the beginning of this year, as of June 17, the total incoming and outgoing passenger flow from five Central Asian countries recorded at the checkpoint at Baiyun Airport was about 28 thousand person-times, which is more than 460 percent more than in the same period last year. Among them, the most obvious was the increase in tourist flow from Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan.

    Guangzhou’s tourism industry is experiencing a rapid revival of tourism projects in Central Asia. Huang Jingru, deputy general manager of Guangzhilu Travel Agency, said that thanks to the opening of more direct flights and favorable visa policies, her agency’s tourism services sector in Central Asia has grown by more than 200 percent in the past two years.

    “It is expected that in the future, tourism products from China to Kazakhstan and other Central Asian countries will have great potential in the Guangzhou market,” she said. -0-

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Moscow Oncology Forum 2025 Opens in the Capital

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    The Moscow Oncology Forum 2025 has begun its work in the capital. It was opened by Anastasia Rakova, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Social Development. In her welcoming speech, she spoke about the city’s transition to an electronic format for pathomorphological diagnostics, the completion of the formation of an infrastructural framework for oncological care, and the introduction of robotic systems into the capital’s healthcare system.

    “In five years, we have essentially created a high-tech oncology service from scratch: we have modernized the equipment, worked out standards for drug provision, formed client paths and carried out complete digitalization. Now all oncology hospitals have the most modern robotic systems – and not one in each. And all this is provided with the necessary financial resources. Four thousand operations have already been performed, and our annual capacity is more than five thousand operations per year. All our laboratories work exclusively digitally. But the most important thing is, of course, a new level of quality of medical care for our patients. I would like to separately note the team of Moscow oncologists, who are truly the vanguard of the capital’s healthcare. You are pioneers in almost all innovations and processes. I would like to thank each oncologist for your daily, difficult, but very noble work in the conditions of continuous changes,” said Anastasia Rakova.

    She added that the unprecedented archive of digital medical data, including oncological data, formed in Moscow is an indisputable competitive advantage. In the context of the development of large generative models of artificial intelligence, this archive opens up a unique opportunity to create projects to identify precursors and patterns of disease development.

    According to Anastasia Rakova, the Moscow oncology service today has every opportunity to reach a new level of care and use modern technologies, such as cell therapy, personalized vaccines, isotopes, and minimally invasive surgery. Among the first steps already being implemented in this direction, she noted the creation of a nuclear pharmacy, theranostics, and the successful use of yttrium to treat liver tumors. The deputy mayor expressed hope that successful cases of high-tech care will become a permanent practice available to every Muscovite. To this end, the capital will increase its work with federal centers, scientific organizations, and pharmaceutical companies.

    The Deputy Mayor recalled the classic rule of medicine: it is easier to prevent a disease than to treat it, and the capital is actively moving in this direction. Thanks to the opening of endoscopic centers, it was possible to increase the detection rate of gastrointestinal tract (GIT) cancer at an early stage. The plans include opening several more such centers. At the same time, the capital is implementing proactive programs. For example, as part of a pilot project for the prevention of oncological diseases, a referral for a screening endoscopic examination of the GIT was opened automatically for those who have not undergone it for more than three years and fall into the risk group. More than 50 thousand people have already signed up for the checkup. After the opening ceremony, guests will be able to learn more about the latest achievements in the field of treatment and diagnosis of oncological diseases not only during the speakers’ speeches, but also by visiting an interactive exhibition. It presents 14 stands in different areas. For example, these are “Brain and Nervous System Tumors”, “Oncourology”, “Radiation and Radionuclide Therapy” and others.

    Visitors to the interactive exhibition will be able to participate in master classes, intellectual games and quizzes, examine objects under a microscope, study video recordings of real operations, and also get a visual representation of the work of the operating room. The stands will show the latest equipment, models of tumors and unique clinical cases.

    The largest oncology forum in Russia is taking place from June 18 to 20 at Gostiny Dvor. The event brings together participants from 20 countries. The most pressing aspects of cancer treatment are being discussed by domestic and foreign experts from Singapore, China, the United Arab Emirates, Spain, France, Turkey, the United States, Belgium, Italy and other countries. These are 144 of the best specialists, including academicians and corresponding members of the Russian Academy of Sciences, professors and doctors of science. Together, they will present almost 400 scientific reports on the latest developments in the field of providing medical care to patients with cancer.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Chinese archaeological technologies are applied in Uzbekistan

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    BEIJING, June 18 (Xinhua) — Chinese archaeology is developing dynamically. Not long ago, advanced Chinese archaeological technologies were used during excavations at the Munchaktepa ancient settlement in Uzbekistan, and the results confirmed the spread of Chinese civilization in this area in ancient times.

    Uzbekistan was an important hub and trade transit point on the Great Silk Road. According to the Shanghai Observer multimedia platform, since 2012, archaeological research institutions of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CAS) together with the National Center for Archaeological Research of the Academy of Sciences of Uzbekistan have been conducting systematic field excavations in the Fergana Valley of this country. It was confirmed that the ancient city of Munchaktepa was most likely the capital of the ancient state of Davan mentioned in historical chronicles. This discovery provided important material evidence of civilizational exchange on the Great Silk Road.

    In 2024, excavations at the Munchaktepa site reached a new milestone. Collective burials were discovered at the site. In early 2025, with the support of the AONK, members of the Joint Laboratory of Scientific and Technical Archaeology under the Belt and Road Initiative went to the Munchaktepa site to conduct excavations.

    Initially, the researchers, with the help of the Uzbek side, built a temporary mobile module, but it turned out that it did not fully meet the working conditions. In this situation, they actually dismantled and reassembled their laboratory from Beijing: they selected portable equipment and necessary materials and built a mobile laboratory on the excavation site.

    “The collaboration model we developed for meticulous excavation and rapid on-site protection of relics is an advanced technology that has undergone countless practical tests in China. This time, it has been fully applied to an archaeological site in Central Asia,” said Han Huarui, a junior researcher at AOC.

    “We used the technology of transporting objects in a protective box to completely encapsulate these fragile relics. This not only minimized damage to the objects during transportation, but also preserved the burial information for future research,” she said.

    When working with metal objects, the researchers carried out cleaning. After extraction, by removing corrosion, the original state of many artifacts such as earrings, pendants, etc. was restored.

    The most surprising discovery was the Wuzhu coin. After conservation treatment, the characters “Wu Zhu” became clearly visible on the coin. This is the most direct evidence of ancient trade and exchange between the East and the West.

    CHENGDU, June 18 (Xinhua) — A pavilion of Kazakh goods located in Qingbaijiang District of Chengdu City, capital of southwest China’s Sichuan Province, displays various food products imported from the Central Asian country, including milk powder, chocolate, candy, flour, vegetable oil and biscuits.

    “If previously cargo transportation between China and Central Asia was carried out by traditional camel caravans, now these camels have become ‘steel’,” noted the head of the pavilion, Ren Jianhong, referring to the trains running along the international railway cargo transportation routes between China and the Central Asian states.

    In April 2025, the first scheduled freight train departed from Chengdu to Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan, on the Chengdu-Central Asia railway route, and in May, a regular public freight train was officially launched between the two points.

    Freight trains cross the border at the Khorgos checkpoint in Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region /Northwest China/ and arrive in Tashkent. The total length of the route is 4,853 km.

    “Chengdu is a hub city for international rail freight routes between China and Central Asia. Thanks to their emergence, the delivery time for goods has been reduced to 10 days, and logistics costs have been reduced by 5-10 percent,” Ren Jianhong explained.

    According to the Chengdu International Railway Port Economic Development Zone Administration, there are regular trains departing from Chengdu on China-Central Asia routes. These routes cover countries such as Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan.

    With the help of these “steel camels,” more and more Central Asian delicacies are becoming available to Chinese consumers, including chocolate oatmeal from Kazakhstan, flaxseed oil from Tajikistan, dried fruits from Turkmenistan, dairy products from Uzbekistan, and honey from Kyrgyzstan.

    In addition, in order to promote the development of agricultural and food trade, China has opened 8 “green channels” for fast customs clearance of agricultural and by-products from Central Asian countries.

    According to the General Administration of Customs of the People’s Republic of China, in the first five months of this year, China’s foreign trade with the five Central Asian countries increased by 10.4 percent year-on-year to 286.42 billion yuan (about 39.86 billion US dollars), reaching a new historical maximum. In particular, in January-May of this year, the volume of agricultural imports from the five Central Asian countries to China amounted to 4.36 billion yuan, which is 26.9 percent more than a year earlier. -0-

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Rosneft improves quality of core studies

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Rosneft – Rosneft – An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    Specialists from the Tyumen and Tomsk research institutes of Rosneft have developed and patented a method for determining relative phase permeability – the ability of rocks to pass liquids and gases through themselves. This is the most important indicator when choosing technologies for developing hydrocarbon deposits.

    The innovation increases the accuracy of hydrodynamic modeling data by 5%, allows for the optimization of production technology and increases the efficiency of extracting reserves from heterogeneous deposits with complex geological structures.

    Scientists have used a comprehensive approach to studying carbonate rocks of Eastern Siberia, which have significant oil and gas potential. Due to the complex and heterogeneous structure of the void space of these rocks, studies using standard methods are not informative enough. The new method includes studying the structure of the pore space of full-size core samples, making special samples from them and repeatedly determining the parameters at different points and planes. This sequence allows us to identify the most likely paths of oil and gas movement in the system of pores and microcracks in rocks and create a highly accurate digital model of hydrocarbon flow.

    The work is carried out using high-tech domestic equipment with a unique core holder, which was manufactured according to a design by specialists from the Tomsk scientific institute “Rosneft”.

    Development of technological potential is one of the key elements of the corporate strategy “Rosneft-2030”. The company gives priority attention to innovation activities, defining technological leadership as a key factor in competitiveness in the oil market.

    CHENGDU, June 18 (Xinhua) — Trade volume between southwest China’s Sichuan Province and five Central Asian countries increased 57.3 percent year on year to 2.78 billion yuan (about 386.8 million U.S. dollars) in January-April 2025, data from Chengdu Customs showed.

    In recent years, Central Asian countries have become important partners for Sichuan Province, which is seeking to build a highly open economy. Data show that in the first four months, the province’s exports to countries in the region totaled 2.61 billion yuan, up 57.9 percent year-on-year, while imports rose 48.5 percent to 170 million yuan.

    Automobiles, semiconductors, batteries and other products account for a large share of the goods exported from Sichuan to Central Asia, while rapeseed oil, ferroalloys and food are mainly imported from Central Asia.

    Sichuan Province and the Central Asian countries have great complementarity and enormous potential for cooperation in the fields of industry, economy, trade, culture, tourism, science and education. In terms of trade with Sichuan Province, Uzbekistan ranks first among the five Central Asian countries, being an important investment destination for the province in the Central Asian region. Thanks to this province, chemical products, porcelain and barley from Uzbekistan enter the Chinese market.

    The cooperation models between Sichuan and Central Asian countries also continue to be updated. For example, a service center of Sichuan Port and Shipping Investment Group Co., Ltd., responsible for international sales, was commissioned in Tashkent, as well as a bonded automobile demonstration center, where over 100 types of products from more than 40 Sichuan enterprises are presented. In addition, China-Central Asia freight trains annually deliver about 5,000 tons of tea from Chengdu to Tashkent. -0-
