    The complex of buildings of the Moscow State Wine Warehouse No. 1 of the 19th–20th centuries (now the Moscow Crystal Factory) was among the 142 identified cultural heritage sites. In total, the Unified State Register of Cultural Heritage Sites includes 3,975 historical buildings and structures. All monuments are under state protection. Their owners and tenants are obliged to ensure the preservation of cultural heritage sites and maintain them in accordance with the approved subject of protection.

    Moscow State Wine Warehouse

    The complex of buildings of the Moscow Crystal Plant is located on Samokatnaya Street (house 4, buildings 1, 2, 9, 11, 13, 14, 32 and an unnamed building). This is a monument of industrial architecture from the turn of the 19th–20th centuries, which previously had another name – Moscow State Wine Warehouse No. 1. It was erected on the bank of the Yauza River in Lefortovo and became the largest enterprise in the industry.

    The oldest buildings that have survived to this day date back to 1851–1876. The main part of the production buildings was created by the architect Nikolai Faleev and the civil engineer Viktor Velichkin.

    In 1894, on the initiative of the Minister of Finance of the Russian Empire, Sergei Witte, a state monopoly on the production and sale of alcoholic beverages was introduced in the country. In 1901, it also affected Moscow.

    After the introduction of prohibition in 1914 during the First World War, Moscow State Wine Warehouse No. 1 continued to manufacture products for medical and technical needs and for export abroad. Several buildings of the plant were given over to housing the wounded.

    Since 1925, the production of strong alcoholic beverages has been resumed here. During the Great Patriotic War, the Moscow State Wine Warehouse No. 1 bottled Molotov cocktails and produced dry alcohol. On July 22, 1941, a bomb hit its main building. The building burned almost completely inside and was restored only by 1950.

    In January 1987, Moscow State Wine Warehouse No. 1 was renamed the Crystal Plant. In 2013, the Crystal Plant’s production facilities were transferred to the Kashirsky District of the Moscow Region. However, the head office remains located in Moscow on Samokatnaya Street.

    A new water pipeline will be built in the Shcherbinka district of the Novomoskovsk administrative district. The corresponding territorial planning project has already been approved. This was reported by Juliana Knyazhevskaya, Chairman of the Committee for Architecture and Urban Development of the City of Moscow (Moskomarkhitektura).

    Large-scale work is being carried out in TiNAO to update water supply and sanitation systems. The new facility will provide residents of Shcherbinka with water from a centralized system supplied by the Western Water Treatment Plant.

    “In the Shcherbinka district, it is planned to build a new water pipeline for water supply to existing and prospective consumers of the district. At present, a land use planning project has been approved for an area of about 96 hectares. It is planned to build a water pipeline and regulating water pumping units “Ryazanovsky-1”, “Ryazanovsky-2” and “Erino”, as well as two access roads. The total length of the water pipeline will be 3.42 kilometers. The work is being carried out within the framework of the capital’s Address Investment Program,” said Yuliana Knyazhevskaya.

    She also added that high-quality design of engineering infrastructure and water supply systems in new areas is a key element of sustainable development. The creation of a well-thought-out and reliable network will not only improve the quality of life of city residents, but will also ensure long-term stability and comfort for future generations, contributing to the harmonious development of the territory.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: A production complex will appear in Zelenograd as part of a large-scale investment project

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    In the Zelenograd Administrative District (ZelAO), as part of a large-scale investment project (MaIP), a production complex is being built for the companies Pervy DSK and Life Engineering. This is the third of four facilities being built in the Savelki area. This was reported by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry Maxim Liksutov.

    “In accordance with the instructions of Sergei Sobyanin, the capital continues to implement projects to develop industrial infrastructure. For example, a complex of four production facilities for various purposes is being built in Zelenograd, where it is planned to produce windows, aerated concrete blocks and ready-made modules. Its creation became possible thanks to two key measures to support the city at once. Due to the status of a large-scale investment project, the investor was able to lease a plot of land on preferential terms. And thanks to the program to stimulate the creation of employment opportunities, after the completion of the construction of all enterprises, the complex will provide more than 600 new jobs for residents of the capital. This will strengthen the production potential of the city and increase the level of employment of the population,” said Maxim Liksutov.

    The complex will house two enterprises producing modern construction products.

    The plant of the company “First DSK” will produce window and door systems, as well as facades using glass and aluminum. The enterprise will provide a full cycle of work – from standard elements to individual solutions. The annual output will be up to 279 thousand square meters of PVC structures, 82 thousand square meters of products with warm glazing and 184 thousand square meters – with cold glazing.

    The Life Engineering company’s enterprise will produce 40 thousand square meters of ready-made modules per year using prefab technology. It involves the preliminary assembly of standard-sized modular structures with full or partial glazing.

    “The construction of an industrial facility, which will become part of the city’s modern infrastructure, is underway in Zelenograd Administrative Okrug. The project’s implementation will create over 100 jobs for residents of the district and open up additional employment opportunities near home. The new facility, with a total area of over 17 thousand square meters, will be located in the Savelki district,” said the Minister of the Moscow Government, head of the Moscow Department of Investment and Industrial Policy

    Anatoly Garbuzov.

    The city provides land plots for the construction of production facilities within the framework of the implementation of the MAIP at a preferential rate of one ruble per year. This contributes to the development of Moscow’s infrastructure and the reduction of pendulum migration of the population of different districts.

    “The provision of land plots at a preferential rate for the creation and expansion of production is a support measure that has been in effect in the capital since March 2022. The FSK Group of Companies was one of the first to take advantage of this opportunity. A plot of about 3.5 hectares was allocated for the construction of the complex. In total, more than 17 hectares of land in the Savelki area have been transferred to the company for the construction of four industrial facilities,” she noted.

    Ekaterina Solovieva, Minister of the Moscow Government, Head of the Moscow Department of City Property.

    The construction of the complex is under control Committee for State Construction Supervision of the City of Moscow (Moscow State Construction Supervision Authority).

    As the head of the department said Anton Slobodchikov, permitting documentation, which allows the developer to begin work on the territory of the complex, was issued at the end of December 2023. The facility will have workshops, warehouses, administrative blocks and checkpoints, offices, a medical center, a canteen, sanitary and household premises and dressing rooms. More than two thousand square meters are allocated for landscaping. Mosgosstroynadzor inspectors monitor each stage of construction – from site preparation to the delivery of the facility. The implementation is carried out in strict accordance with the design documentation and compliance with all technical requirements.

    Work is currently underway to install a reinforced concrete base and roof, as well as to install metal structures and sandwich panels.

    FSK Group Project Director Maxim Rybakov noted that the new industrial facility in Zelenograd will unite two high-tech production facilities at one site. This will increase the efficiency of using the provided land plot and provide residents of the district with a large selection of vacancies for employment at future enterprises. The partnership of the city and business in projects of this scale allows for a comprehensive approach to the development of territories and human resources. Maxim Rybakov also noted that construction is planned to be completed this year.

    The program to stimulate the creation of employment opportunities has covered almost all districts of the city since 2020. Investors will build over 230 facilities with a total area of over six million square meters. Among them are new industrial enterprises, office and shopping centers, as well as educational, cultural and sports institutions. The implementation of the projects will create more than 310 thousand new jobs in almost all sectors of the city’s economy.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Live training: SPbPU students completed practical training at Setl Group construction sites

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    Second-year students of the Institute of Civil Engineering of SPbPU took part in a series of excursions to the construction sites of Setl Group. During their introductory practice, the students also visited the company’s office.

    The students of the Polytechnic University were accompanied by Svetlana Belyaeva, senior lecturer of the Civil Engineering Institute, and Alexandra Zatsepina, assistant of the ISI. Setl Group was represented by Daria Fioletova, manager of personnel training and development.

    In the residential complex “Bionika Zapovednaya” the tour was conducted by the leading construction engineer Ivan Golubev and the head of the construction project Vladimir Farykin. In the residential complex Univer City the children were met by the construction engineer Ksenia Tolkacheva and the leading construction engineer Alexey Borisenko. The head of the construction project Ruslan Ermoolenko, leading construction engineers Kirill Tropin and Artem Akimov told about the residential complex “Dvortsovy Fasad”.

    At the company’s office, construction project manager Dmitry Shmodin gave a lecture on the specifics of management, site organization, interaction between engineers at all stages of work, and the use of modern technologies.

    During excursions to residential complexes and the office, ISI students received detailed safety instructions, saw presentations of architectural concepts of the facilities, learned about the company’s areas of activity, job responsibilities of engineers and strict requirements for the quality of work. In addition, the students studied the sequence of construction processes – from monolithic work to finishing and landscaping, got acquainted with engineering systems, visited the technical underground and underground parking. They discussed modern digital solutions for construction management with experts, including the ICONA platform, and also asked questions to engineers.

    Based on the results of the internship, the students compiled reports with photos and videos. This will be useful to them in the next semester when designing a multi-apartment residential building. The guys were interested in the possibility of completing an internship at the company and further employment.

    “I received additional motivation in my desire to become a professional who not only knows how to design, but is also able to control and understand the entire construction process on site,” shared Mikhail Abramov.

    “Such excursions help students combine knowledge of different disciplines in a single real picture of construction. This is how they learn to think, reason, ask questions and see more,” noted ISI teacher Alexandra Zatsepina.

    “It’s nice to see the students’ sincere desire to learn a lot. This gives rise to the desire to invest more: to hold useful events to help the new generation grow professionally. We will be glad to see interested students in our practice,” said Setl Group’s HR Training and Development Manager Daria Fioletova.

    LONDON, July 22 (Xinhua) — Twenty-eight countries and the European Union’s Commissioner for Equality, Preparedness and Crisis Management issued a joint statement on Monday condemning Israel for the suffering of civilians in Gaza.

    “The suffering of civilians in Gaza has reached new depths. We condemn the crumbs that are being sent as aid and the inhumane killing of civilians,” the statement said. “It is appalling that more than 800 Palestinians have been killed while asking for aid,” the document noted.

    “The Israeli government’s refusal to provide essential humanitarian assistance to civilians is unacceptable. Israel must uphold its obligations under international humanitarian law,” the statement added, calling for an immediate end to the war in Gaza.

    The parties also called on the Israeli government “to immediately lift restrictions on aid and urgently allow the UN and humanitarian NGOs to carry out their life-saving work safely and effectively.”

    Signed by the foreign ministers of Britain, France, Italy, Canada, Japan and other Western countries, the statement also opposes any attempts to change the territorial or demographic status of the occupied Palestinian territories.

    In response, the Israeli Foreign Ministry dismissed the statement as “out of touch with reality” and accused Hamas of being “the only party responsible for the lack of an agreement on the release of hostages and a ceasefire.” –0–

    LOS ANGELES, July 22 (Xinhua) — A passenger jet was forced to make an aggressive maneuver to avoid a collision with a B-52 bomber over the U.S. state of North Dakota last week, multiple media reported on Monday.

    The Delta Connection-branded flight, operated by SkyWest Airlines, was en route from Minneapolis to Minot International Airport on Friday. According to the Washington Post, air traffic controllers cleared the plane to land, but a B-52 bomber suddenly appeared on the route, forcing the civilian plane to make a quick go-around.

He apologized for the sudden and “aggressive maneuver” that was necessary to avoid a collision. “Nobody told us” about the bomber’s presence, the pilot said.

    LONDON, July 22 (Xinhua) — British Foreign Secretary David Lammy on Monday condemned the killing of civilians in Gaza and criticized Israel’s aid distribution model as “inhumane” after Britain endorsed a joint international statement calling for an end to the conflict.

    “I categorically condemn the killing of civilians trying to meet their basic needs,” Mr Lammy told MPs in the House of Commons.

    “The Israeli government must answer what military justification there can be for strikes that have killed desperate, starving children,” he said.

    While reaffirming support for Israel’s right to security and existence, the minister warned that the country’s current actions “cause incalculable damage to Israel’s reputation in the world and undermine its long-term security.”

    Lammy described Israel’s recently implemented system of delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza as “inhumane, dangerous and dehumanising to the people of Gaza”. He added that it “contradicts long-standing humanitarian principles” by forcing civilians, including children, “to struggle in unsafe conditions for basic necessities”.

    He also mentioned proposals by Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz, which reportedly included moving the entire Gaza population to Rafah and detaining Palestinians unless they emigrated. “This is a cruel idea that should never happen,” Lammy said. –0–

  • MIL-OSI Russia: NSU students and staff presented their developments in the field of prosthetics at the national forum “Hope for Technology”

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Novosibirsk State University –

    An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    The 10th National Forum of the Rehabilitation Industry and Universal Design “Hope for Technology”, dedicated to demonstrating comprehensive solutions for creating an accessible environment, modern technologies for people with disabilities, was held in Moscow on July 10-11. The large-scale exhibition display of Russian manufacturers presented more than 450 domestic solutions in 9 areas: prostheses, orthoses and functional units, rehabilitation equipment and exercise machines. The biomechanics and medical engineering group of the Novosibirsk State University, which consists of students from several faculties, presented its developments to the professional community. This scientific group was created on the basis of Mathematical center in Akademgorodok

    The exhibition of assistive technologies was attended by the head of the group, candidate of physical and mathematical sciences Vladimir Serdyukov, 4th year students Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics of NSU Daria Korostovskaya and Alexander Niukkanen, 3rd year student Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics of NSU Tatyana Shashkina, 5th year student Institute of Medicine and Medical Technologies NSU Sofia Eksharova, 2nd year master’s student Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics of NSU Andrey Karavan, Master’s degree graduate Faculty of Geology and Geophysics of NSU Innokenty Serdyuk and postgraduate student of the Institute of Thermal Physics SB RAS Konstantin Lebeda. Young researchers got acquainted with developments in the field of assistive technologies, learned a lot of interesting things, showed the results of their projects, received feedback and acquired valuable contacts for further cooperation.

    At their stand, the young researchers presented a motion capture system for studying the kinematics of patients’ walking, as well as an adaptive prosthetic socket for a hand prosthesis using 3D printing technology.

    The group also presented its latest developments: a 3D-printed prosthetic foot for activity levels 1–2 and insoles for gait biomechanics diagnostics for amputees, which will complement and improve the motion capture system.

    — The most feedback was received by one of our new developments, which was tested for the first time at the forum — a foot prosthesis printed on a 3D printer. Working on this project, we set ourselves the following goal: to make a foot prosthesis that would have a low cost, be easy to manufacture, have the ability to be personalized and manufactured in a short time using simple equipment, which would increase its availability, but at the same time maintain the general biomechanics of walking. An important point is that our prosthesis belongs to activity levels 1-2 and is intended only for walking, but is not suitable for running or sports. To develop the geometry, a digital stand was used that imitates human loads when walking. This way, we were able to create a prosthesis geometry that meets the goal, — said Andrey Karavan.

    For the precise design of the prosthesis, 3D modeling and load analysis technologies in Ansys were used. Manufacturing using FDM printing technology took about 12 hours. The weight of the finished product was about 700 grams. This project received financial support from the Ministry of Science and Innovation Policy of the Novosibirsk Region.

    The first time a patient tested a printed prosthesis was at the forum. The guys offered to test and evaluate it to the head of the prosthetic center “Instep” (St. Petersburg), who is an amputee himself.

    — He liked that the sole is non-slip – even on wet floor tiles, which allows the user to take a shower without the risk of falling. However, he pointed out the shortcomings and shortcomings regarding the geometry of the product and made constructive suggestions for its improvement. His opinion is very important to us, and taking this feedback into account, we will adjust the prosthesis model and organize re-testing on other amputees. It will not be difficult to make adjustments due to the simplicity of the technology, — explained Daria Korostovskaya.

    Another new development of the NSU biomechanics and medical engineering group attracted great interest from the forum participants — a pressure insole that will accurately determine the step phases and gait asymmetry. This “smart” insole was previously tested together with a motion capture system for analyzing gait kinematics. The invention will allow specialists in prosthetic centers to analyze the distribution of the load between healthy and amputated limbs, evaluate the distribution of pressure on the foot or prosthesis, and the dynamics of rehabilitation outside the clinic. This project received support from the FSI Foundation as part of the Student Startup competition.

    — The video we recorded while testing this insole shows the distribution of the load on the foot when walking. It is important that it allows us to divide the gait cycles into support and transfer phases. We have the opportunity to analyze their ratio and draw conclusions about the gait asymmetry indicator of amputees, which is important for monitoring rehabilitation and correct placement of the prosthesis. When diagnosing the biomechanics of amputees’ gait, such insoles are placed in shoes under both the patient’s healthy foot and the prosthesis. To transmit and read data from the insole, we developed software for processing and visualizing the data, — said Tatyana Shashkina.

    Young researchers plan to combine the motion capture system with a “smart” insole. During early research, the guys came to the conclusion that combining these technical solutions will allow for a more complete gait analysis. The motion capture system records the kinematics of the gait, and the insole records the pressure of the foot and prosthesis on the surface. By combining these data, it is possible to track the biomechanical indicators and symmetry of the patient’s gait, which is of great importance for assessing the progress of rehabilitation and adjusting the prosthesis settings.

    This development has attracted great interest from representatives of prosthetic centers, some of whom have expressed interest in testing it in their institutions and working together. Among them are the Alorto prosthetic and orthopedic center (Barnaul) and the Ortho-Innovation prosthetic center (Moscow).

    — We will be glad to cooperate with these and other prosthetic centers, including because during joint testing we will be able to replenish the database of gait kinematics of patients with lower limb amputations, which we are currently forming in the course of joint work with the Novosibirsk branch of the Moscow Prosthetic and Orthopedic Enterprise. In addition, at the forum we received a request to develop an adaptive prosthetic socket for a leg using 3D printing technology, similar to our existing development of a prosthetic socket for an arm. This is exactly what we intend to do in the near future, — Vladimir Serdyukov summed up.

    Source: People’s Republic of China – State Council News

    BEIJING, July 22 (Xinhua) — China has released guidelines to accelerate digital education this year. Based on three years of experience summarizing the national digital education strategy, Chinese authorities have put forward comprehensive work plans to further advance national digital education.

    How far has digital education progressed in China now and how will it develop in the future?

    A BREAKTHROUGH IN DIGITAL EDUCATION

    In 2022, the state public service platform for intellectual education was opened, marking the official launch of the national digital education strategy.

    After three years of development, this platform integrates 5 sub-platforms and has access to 32 provincial-level platforms. It has registered more than 163 million users and the number of visits and views on the platform has exceeded 60.8 billion times.

    At the same time, the platform has launched more than 110 thousand educational resources for primary and secondary schools, more than 11 thousand high-quality online courses for vocational education and 31 thousand courses for higher education.

    “Over the past three years, breakthroughs have been made in implementing the national digital education strategy and the world’s largest platform for public learning resources and services and a lifelong public learning platform have been established,” said Zhou Dawan, head of the Department of Science, Technology and Information Technology of the Ministry of Education of the People’s Republic of China.

    At present, digital education in China is being comprehensively promoted with faster speed and efficiency. All schools at different levels in China are connected to the Internet, and more than 75% of schools have wireless network coverage. In addition, new infrastructure has been built in many places to build provincial-level intelligent education platforms.

    “In the future, it is necessary to work hard to build a diversified system of platforms, catalog systems, resources, data and application systems, and improve the platform’s intelligence level to create a digital base with high intelligence and strong interaction,” said Yang Zongkai, head of the advisory committee of experts on digital education at the Ministry of Education of the People’s Republic of China.

    AI IN EDUCATION REFORM

    Nowadays, the application of artificial intelligence is becoming a hot topic in the field of education. From cities to rural areas, many educational institutions have begun to study specific areas of application of artificial intelligence.

    In March this year, China released the intelligent version of the national intelligent education platform 2.0 and launched an “artificial intelligence testing ground” to promote innovation in human-computer interaction.

    Zhou Dawan noted that in the future, the “AI testing ground” will be improved, focusing on four main aspects – student learning, teacher teaching, educational management and scientific research, and the innovative forces of high-level universities and enterprises will be combined to develop promising practical AI tools.

    It should be recalled that the guidelines on accelerating digital education state that it is necessary to promote the digital transformation of academic disciplines, teaching materials and teaching models, and to improve the digital literacy and skills of the entire population, especially teachers and students.

    In addition, the document also proposes to establish an “AI education” security assurance system and explore the possibility of establishing an algorithm security assessment system to effectively avoid problems such as cyber attacks, information cocoons, algorithm hegemony and Internet addiction.

    PROMOTING DIGITAL EDUCATION AS AN INTERNATIONAL BRAND

    The above document points out that the internationalization of digital education should be actively promoted and international cooperation in the joint creation and utilization of resources, joint training of personnel, etc. should be deepened so as to form an international brand of Chinese digital education.

    After more than 10 years of development, China ranks first in the world in the number and scale of application of massive open online courses (MOOCs), creating an international brand in higher education worldwide.

    In January 2024, the international version of the government’s public service platform in the field of intelligent education was launched, which will provide all-weather support for the education of students around the world.

    In addition, according to the data, the state intellectual education platform in the field of higher education has been visited by more than 106 million people, and its users cover 183 countries and regions of the world.

    The document also said that it is necessary to deepen the application of the international version of the national public service platform in the field of intelligent education, so that digital education can benefit students all over the world and China’s digital education can become a benchmark for the world.

    “Digital education is an inevitable trend of modern development,” Zhou Dawan said, adding that it is not only a technological revolution in education, but also a profound reform of the concept, model and management of education.

    The Republic of Buryatia will traditionally take part in the exhibition “Far East Street”, which will be held from September 3 to 9 as part of the tenth, anniversary Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok. This year, the region’s exposition is called “Baikal. Buryatia. Code of the Future”. The organizer of the exhibition is the Roscongress Foundation with the support of the office of the Plenipotentiary Representative of the President of Russia in the Far Eastern Federal District.

    “Baikal is a unique place of power, it is not for nothing that it is called the sacred sea. It is a calling card not only of Buryatia, but of our entire country. It is a national and world treasure. But it is not only the natural beauty that attracts people to Buryatia. Those who come to the republic know the unique culture and traditions of the region. Thanks to the program of renovation of Far Eastern cities, the appearance of Ulan-Ude and Severobaikalsk is changing, the quality of life of people is improving. New enterprises are opening in the republic, highly qualified jobs are being created. Participants and guests of the Eastern Economic Forum will be able to learn about what Buryatia is famous for,” said Deputy Prime Minister – Plenipotentiary Representative of the President in the Far Eastern Federal District, Chairman of the Organizing Committee of the Eastern Economic Forum Yuri Trutnev.

    The goal of the Buryatia pavilion is to show the potential for the development of environmentally sustainable tourism, digitalization and the introduction of advanced technologies in the region. The space will feature virtual tours, master classes and other events.

    The republic’s exposition will be presented by two pavilions. There will also be an outdoor exhibition area and a site for master classes. A new space will appear – a spiritual cleansing zone. A Buryat yurt will be installed, inside which a center of oriental medicine will be located – traditional methods of treatment will be presented. In addition, visitors to the exhibition will be able to compete in national sports and take part in the games of the peoples of Buryatia. A separate space will be opened demonstrating the region’s contribution to the Victory in the Great Patriotic War and support for a special military operation.

    “Between the main pavilion, where the republic’s tourism and investment activities will be presented, and the yurt, there will be an installation imitating a corridor with tied hii morin, and a khurde drum will also be installed. A new cultural program has also been developed, it will be called “My Buryatia” and will introduce the guests of the EEF to the multifaceted culture of our amazing republic. Two of our famous groups will present their colorful numbers – the Buryat National Song and Dance Theater “Baikal” and the Municipal Theater of Folk Music and Dance “Zabava”, – noted the head of the Republic of Buryatia Alexey Tsydenov.

    In the Tourism zone of the main pavilion, visitors will be able to view virtual tours, take part in interactive games, and complete the Feel Buryatia quest.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Dmitry Grigorenko: Novosibirsk AI developments have potential for federal replication

    During his working visit, Deputy Prime Minister – Chief of the Government Staff Dmitry Grigorenko got acquainted with the results of the implementation of artificial intelligence in various sectors of the economy, social life and public administration in the Novosibirsk Region. As the Deputy Prime Minister noted, local developments using artificial intelligence have a high potential for replication across the country.

    Dmitry Grigorenko visited the Research Center for Artificial Intelligence of the Novosibirsk National Research State University, as well as the technopark of the Novosibirsk Akademgorodok, where IT companies are working on the creation and implementation of promising AI solutions. The Deputy Prime Minister – Head of the Government Staff noted that Novosibirsk is one of the centers for the development of information technology and artificial intelligence.

    “Our goal is to develop high-quality AI solutions and implement them on a large scale. This is only possible if AI development brings tangible results and real benefits. Novosibirsk has created decent conditions for the development of artificial intelligence. It has a strong scientific base and a progressive startup community. Thanks to this, the development of artificial intelligence here is parallel to the implementation, and not in isolation from it. It is important that the region itself is interested in using its AI developments and implements them in local educational institutions, enterprises and even in the work of government agencies,” said Dmitry Grigorenko.

    One of the most important areas of implementation of artificial intelligence is public administration. In the Novosibirsk region, AI assistants are being implemented, which allow optimizing the work of civil servants. Thus, an AI expert in customer centricity helps process citizens’ requests and prepare the most understandable and clear answers, an AI assistant in the electronic document management system – quickly find the necessary information, and an AI stenographer – generate meeting minutes. Services have already begun to be implemented in the work of regional and municipal authorities.

    In addition, the region has implemented the Safe City video analytics system, which helps monitor public order and search for offenders. More than 2.6 thousand criminals were detained with the help of the system. Novosibirsk specialists also created and implemented an AI service for searching for missing children using city video cameras. In less than two months of the service’s operation, six children were found with its help.

    Since 2025, the Novosibirsk Region has been actively introducing AI technologies into healthcare: AI is used to interpret X-ray and CT scan data. Since the beginning of the year, the system has processed over 361 thousand images. AI is used as an assistant for analyzing medical data, but the final diagnosis remains with the specialist. In addition, Novosibirsk doctors use voice input technology based on a neural network. It reduces the likelihood of errors in medical documentation. Today, the technology has been implemented in 71 medical institutions in the region.

    “The use of artificial intelligence is justified for specific tasks. We try to monitor all developments, but when we approach the stage of large-scale implementation, we look at the expected result – improved quality of services, fundamentally new services for our citizens or a reduction in our labor costs. If we see successful developments, we try to quickly repeat them, but at the same time we can develop our own solutions. As examples, I can cite the analysis of X-ray and computed tomography data, the Safe City video analytics system. In the field of voice analytics and speech generation, this is the well-known robot Nikolai, a voice keyboard for doctors, intelligent assistants for civil servants. All these solutions both improve the quality of services for citizens and seriously reduce labor costs for our colleagues,” said Andrey Travnikov, Governor of the Novosibirsk Region.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Dmitry Grigorenko: The goal of digitalization of public administration is the comfort of citizens

    An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    As part of a working visit to the Novosibirsk Region, Deputy Prime Minister – Chief of the Government Staff Dmitry Grigorenko familiarized himself with digital solutions for public administration that have already been implemented in the region.

    Novosibirsk Oblast is one of the top ten regions in the digital transformation rating and is actively implementing technologies in various areas. The region is connected to the digital system “governor’s dashboard”. This is one of the technological solutions of the Russian Government, designed for public administration based on data. The dashboard reflects the key areas of the region’s work and performance indicators, the status of the execution of instructions, federal and regional budgets, construction plans and other tasks. Such systems have already been implemented at the federal level. They have proven their effectiveness and are now being extended to the regions (43 regions are currently connected to the “governor’s dashboard”).

    “The ultimate goal of digitalization of public administration is always the comfort of citizens. Thanks to digital platforms and services, citizens receive government services faster and can promptly, without unnecessary paperwork, leave feedback. In addition, “digital” helps officials work more efficiently. For example, to respond faster to citizens’ requests, analyze what worries people most, and make informed decisions based on objective data,” said Dmitry Grigorenko.

    The region is also developing digital services for citizens and implementing a customer-centric approach. The region has a system called the Novosibirsk Region Resident Card, which is a digital citizen identifier for receiving various goods or services, such as discounted travel on public transport or baby food. The system proactively notifies citizens about available benefits and services. A linked Mir bank card or a QR code in a personal account can serve as confirmation of benefits in various institutions or transport. The Resident Card can also be presented to receive discounted medicines, purchase discounted tickets to cultural institutions, and the card can serve as a library card or a pass to educational institutions. Currently, the system has 18 different services, and almost 40 thousand residents of the region are registered.

    The region has also implemented a digital project that has no analogues in other regions – signing contracts with kindergartens in electronic form through the Gosklyuch application. The service was implemented within the framework of the regional life situation “Preschooler”. Within its framework, the process of registering a child in a kindergarten was digitized: from filing an application (now 91% of applications for joining the queue are submitted through the state services portal) to signing an agreement with the kindergarten remotely. Since the launch, more than 4 thousand contracts have already been successfully signed electronically.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Iran announces new round of talks with EU3 in Istanbul on July 25

    TEHRAN, July 21 (Xinhua) — Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei said on Monday that a new round of talks between Tehran and the E3 group, comprising France, Britain and Germany, is planned to be held in Istanbul, Turkey on July 25.

    The official said the talks would focus on lifting sanctions on Iran and issues related to the Iranian nuclear programme, with Tehran set out its demands “in all seriousness”. The meeting would be at deputy foreign minister level and would be attended by the EU deputy high representative for foreign affairs and security policy.

    E. Baghaei criticized the three European countries that signed the 2015 nuclear deal for their “inappropriate” stance and silence in the face of Israel’s recent military “aggression” against Iran. The Iranian diplomat said these countries should be held accountable for their stance.

    He also mentioned the E3’s threats to trigger the sanctions snapback mechanism, stressing that resorting to it is “senseless, illegal and immoral.”

    The sanctions snapback mechanism is part of the Iran nuclear deal, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). It allows other parties to reimpose all international sanctions if Iran fails to comply with the agreement.

    Iran and the EU3 have held six rounds of talks since September last year, when delegations began dialogue on a range of issues including Tehran’s nuclear program and sanctions relief on the sidelines of the annual UN General Assembly session in New York. The latest round took place in Istanbul in mid-May.

    In July 2015, Iran signed the JCPOA with six countries – Britain, China, France, Germany, Russia and the United States. Under the deal, Tehran agreed to curb its nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief. –0–
