    Since the beginning of 2025, residents of the country have built and registered 170.4 thousand individual residential buildings. This was reported by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.

    At the April 15 meeting of the State Council Presidium on the development of infrastructure for life, Russian President Vladimir Putin noted that individual housing construction is the most important area in demand among citizens. The head of state also emphasized that it is necessary to expand this segment of housing, pay special attention to the provision of land plots, their provision with infrastructure and the creation of reliable mechanisms so that people can invest their funds in individual construction.

    “A number of measures have been taken to develop housing construction, including the individual housing construction sector. In recent years, interest in individual housing construction has grown significantly. Since the beginning of 2025, citizens have built and registered 170.4 thousand private houses with a total area of 24.7 million square meters in the Rosreestr, which is almost 17% more than in the same period of 2024,” said Marat Khusnullin.

    Today, individual housing construction accounts for more than half of the housing commissioning in the country. In 2024, 62.3 million square meters of private housing were commissioned in Russia, which became a record figure in the entire history of Russia.

    “The leader in this segment is the Central Federal District. Since the beginning of 2025, 36.6 thousand individual houses with a total area of 7.2 million square meters have been built here, or 29% of the total individual housing construction fund built since the beginning of 2025. Including in the Moscow Region, more than 14 thousand individual housing construction objects have been built and registered with the cadastral register, which is 38.2% of the total number in the Central Federal District,” commented Oleg Skufinsky, head of Rosreestr.

    Almost as in the Central Federal District, private construction is popular in the Volga region, where from January to March of this year, almost 31.7 thousand individual houses with a total area of 4.2 million square meters were built. The Republic of Tatarstan is the leader here with 10.5 thousand houses. At the same time, according to the results of 2024, the Republic of Bashkortostan became the leader in the number of private houses commissioned in the Volga Federal District (19.8 thousand houses).

    The Southern Federal District rounds out the top three, where 23.2 thousand individual housing construction objects with an area of 3.2 million square meters have been built since the beginning of 2025. This is 20% more than the figure for the same period in 2024. The best indicators in the district are in Krasnodar Krai – 10.8 thousand private houses.

    The main building material in the period under review was wood. According to the Unified State Register of Real Estate, 55.5 thousand individual housing construction objects with an area of 7 million square meters were built from it, which is 22% more than at the beginning of 2024. Slightly less often, citizens built houses from brick – 31.4 thousand houses with an area of 5 million square meters. The least amount of panel houses were erected – only 1.7 thousand buildings on 214 thousand square meters.

    As for the number of storeys, in most cases Russians built single-storey houses, 100 thousand of which were registered – this is 16% more than at the beginning of 2024. Two-storey buildings were erected in 65.1 thousand, three-storey buildings – 4.8 thousand.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Financial news: Number of borrowers and indebtedness of citizens decreased in the second half of 2024

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Central Bank of Russia –

    For the first time since 2022, the total number of borrowers from banks and microfinance organizations decreased by 0.5 million in six months, amounting to just over 50 million people, according to data from credit history bureaus.

    Banks began to limit the risks of borrowers becoming over-indebted by reducing the average size of a cash loan (it decreased by 20%) and its term (the share of loans up to one year increased by 13 percentage points, to 21%).

    In Q4 2024, the number of the most indebted borrowers with at least three loans decreased by 0.5 million people, but they still account for about half of the debt on retail loans.

    The number of citizens with a mortgage remained at the same level, amounting to 10.2 million people. At the same time, banks began to issue mortgage loans for a term of over 30 years less frequently. The share of borrowers who take out a consumer loan before a mortgage has decreased. This indicates that the likelihood of a down payment using credit funds has decreased.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Yuri Trutnev: The forest in Russia, like all other resources, should be used as efficiently as possible

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

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

    Deputy Prime Minister and Presidential Plenipotentiary Representative in the Far Eastern Federal District Yuri Trutnev held a working meeting with timber industry workers from Primorsky Krai in Vladivostok.

    “We will discuss the use of forest resources. Unfortunately, forests in the Russian Federation are used to a much lesser extent than in other forest countries. In addition, there is a certain downward trend. In the first quarter of this year, timber harvesting in Primorsky Krai decreased by 11%, and exports decreased even more. Accordingly, tax revenues from industry enterprises to the regional budget amounted to 3%. There were a number of speeches on the topic of, say, more effective regulation of the industry. So far, there have been no major changes here. We need to ensure that forests in Russia, like all other resources, are used as efficiently as possible,” Yuri Trutnev opened the meeting.

    The issues discussed included the implementation of forest management activities in the Primorsky Krai, the work of the Federal State Information System of the Forestry Complex, and support by forestry enterprises of the Primorsky Krai for the special military operation.

    According to Primorsky Krai Governor Oleg Kozhemyako, since the beginning of the SVO, forestry companies operating in the region have transferred more than 16 thousand cubic meters of timber, more than 50 units of equipment, supplied equipment, weapons, medicines and provided other assistance to military units. During the period of partial mobilization, they equipped and provided military training grounds and tent cities with the necessary materials entirely at their own expense.

    “We have always provided and continue to provide large-scale, free assistance to the families of military personnel – tens of thousands of cubic meters of firewood, money. Their fellow countrymen who serve on the front lines contact their leaders directly. And they never get a refusal – on any issues. Now our enterprises have organized a rhythmic and regular free supply of lumber to the troops, to the SVO zone. Despite the sanctions, the decline in revenue and the difficult economy, assistance to the army is being scaled up,” said Oleg Kozhemyako.

    The meeting discussed the work of the Primorsky branch of the Federal State Budgetary Institution “Roslesinforg”. The previous management of the branch concluded 19 contracts with forest lessees of Primorsky Krai on forest management (forest taxation) on an area of 330 thousand hectares, for which obligations were overdue. The work was not completed, the funds were spent, and an irreparable cash gap was actually formed. The work was either not started, or it needs to be completely redone.

    In addition to unfulfilled obligations to businesses, the Primorsky branch of Roslesinforg has had debts to the region since 2020 under a contract for the establishment of rural forests on an area of 50 thousand hectares. These works were ordered at the expense of their own budget. The forest management work carried out under the 2023 state assignment in the Ussuri forestry on an area of 127 thousand hectares requires a complete review and large-scale adjustment.

    Currently, the Primorsky branch is fulfilling overdue obligations through current business and financial activities with an acute shortage of tax engineers and funds allocated for the fulfillment of the state assignment: the branch is forced to spend a significant portion of the funds received from new customers to fulfill overdue obligations and fulfill the state assignment for 2024 and 2025.

    The new head of the branch takes a set of measures aimed at independently resolving the current situation (an agreement is reached with the tenants of forest areas on extending the terms of execution of contracts, new employees are actively hired, including those with remote employment from other regions, new contracts are concluded, etc.). But the measures taken are clearly insufficient due to the scale of the problem; intervention by the federal center is required to correct the current situation with forest management in the Primorsky Territory, as well as a deep analysis of this area as a whole, including an assessment of the effectiveness of the decisions taken on federalization and monopolization of these powers.

    Yuri Trutnev instructed the Ministry of Natural Resources to develop and submit proposals for remote forestry accounting.

    “A number of unqualified management actions have led to people not being able to obtain forest plots and even information, or build a timber processing plant. We have promoted a clear way to solve this problem – forest management based on space images and aerial photographs. We can keep records of forests based on remote methods. The Ministry of Natural Resources supports this solution. We discussed this together with the minister. Therefore, we need to switch to remote methods as quickly as possible and restore order in the forest,” said Yuri Trutnev.

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

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

    Deputy Prime Minister Dmytro Chernyshenko made a working visit to the Kherson region.

    The Vice Prime Minister assessed the progress of construction and restoration of institutions in the spheres of education, youth policy, sports, religion, and also talked to their representatives. The events were attended by the Governor of the Kherson region Volodymyr Saldo.

    The event “The glory of these days will not fade!” was held at Genicheskaya School No. 1. In the presence of Dmitry Chernyshenko, students recited poems about the Great Patriotic War and performed songs about Russia.

    In addition, the Deputy Prime Minister assessed the work of the school museum “History of One Family”. It features the exhibition “Suitcase of Memory” dedicated to the Great Patriotic War and the SVO.

    “On the eve of one of the most important holidays – Victory Day – I express my deep gratitude to the teachers and mentors who so carefully preserve the history of their native land. Let’s make sure that your experience with the “Memory Suitcase” is spread. At the very least, we will start with your sister schools, and then we will conduct such a relay race throughout the country. Everything that you have come up with here will now be repeated by your friends, colleagues from other cities of our vast country,” Dmitry Chernyshenko emphasized.

    Currently, the school has 14 sister schools throughout Russia, including in Krasnodar Krai, Volgograd, Adygea, Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Khabarovsk.

    The Deputy Prime Minister thanked the Republic of Adygea and its head Murat Kumpilov for the renovation of the physical education and health complex and the music room, and also noted the need for major repairs at the school.

    In conclusion, he presented the school with a certificate for improving its material and technical base and history textbooks. “Promise that you will definitely study and try. After all, the most important thing you can do for our country now is to study well. And we, on our part, on the instructions of President Vladimir Putin, will continue to create conditions so that you can realize your potential and talents. And you have a lot of talents – we are convinced of this!” the Deputy Prime Minister addressed the students.

    Also in Genichesk, Dmitry Chernyshenko assessed the progress of the comprehensive reconstruction of the Kherson Technical University and talked to students. The Deputy Prime Minister was provided with detailed information about the work of the Russian Children and Youth Movement “Movement of the First”, the physics and chemistry laboratory, the design department, as well as a presentation of the computer sports development center and the UAV research laboratory. In conclusion, the Deputy Prime Minister handed over a certificate to the university for the purchase of a vehicle.

    “In the Kherson region, I see a huge focus on raising the level of socio-economic development. The most important thing is that on the eve of such an important holiday for our country – Victory Day – we decided to focus on children and youth and on the opportunities that are provided in accordance with the national goal outlined by President Vladimir Putin, to realize the potential and develop the talents of each person,” said Dmitry Chernyshenko.

    He emphasized the professional involvement of teachers and also noted the importance of the role of modern defenders of the Fatherland: “We are very grateful to our heroes today, the participants of the SVO, who protect us and strive to ensure that peaceful life comes as soon as possible and we continue our positive development.”

    In addition, Dmitry Chernyshenko and Vladimir Saldo visited the Cathedral of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, where they discussed work issues with Metropolitan Filaret of Novaya Kakhovka and Genichesk and Archpriest Alexander Demkin.

    “This is one of the most significant Orthodox churches in the Kherson region. A place where history, faith and national unity have always been close. The church is more than a century old – it has had to endure a lot at different times. Today it is open to people again, lives and receives parishioners. For the Kherson region, preserving churches is not just caring for buildings. It is preserving our history, our roots, which give us the strength to move forward,” said Volodymyr Saldo.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Dmitry Patrushev: Rosprirodnadzor to inspect enterprises without comprehensive environmental permits

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

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

    Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Patrushev held a meeting on issues of obtaining comprehensive environmental permits. It was attended by heads of relevant departments, regions and representatives of the offices of the plenipotentiary representatives of the President of Russia in the federal districts.

    “Our task is to increase the level of environmental responsibility of business. Enterprises must systematically abandon outdated and resource-intensive technologies in favor of more modern and environmentally friendly ones, safe for the environment and for people. Among the debtors are socially significant facilities, which is of the greatest concern. The Government has provided all the necessary conditions for obtaining comprehensive environmental permits, including halving the time frame for their issuance,” said Dmitry Patrushev.

    On January 1, a law came into force requiring large enterprises, including those operating in the industrial sector, the fuel and energy complex, housing and communal facilities, and agricultural enterprises that have a significant negative impact on the environment, to obtain comprehensive environmental permits. Such permits confirm compliance with environmental requirements or the existence of plans to modernize production.

    Dmitry Patrushev noted that most of the facilities that did not submit applications are concentrated in the Republic of Dagestan, Saratov and Moscow regions. In the Kaliningrad region, the republics of Ingushetia and North Ossetia-Alania, not a single facility received permission.

    The Deputy Prime Minister instructed Rosprirodnadzor to conduct unscheduled inspections of facilities that did not receive comprehensive environmental permits on time. The absence of these permits will result in a hundredfold increase in the fee for negative impact on the environment, as well as fines.

    In addition, Dmitry Patrushev ordered the updating of reference books containing technological indicators of the best available technologies.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: The government has approved the rules for selecting projects to be implemented with the help of treasury infrastructure loans

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

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

    Document

    Resolution of April 28, 2025 No. 566

    The government continues to improve the mechanism for issuing infrastructure loans, which are used to modernize housing and utilities in the regions, as well as create transport, engineering, energy, tourism and other infrastructure facilities. Previously, such loans were financed directly from the budget, but now they will be issued using temporarily available funds from the single account of the federal budget. The procedure for selecting projects for the provision of such loans has been approved by the signed resolution.

    According to the document, the selection for the provision of treasury infrastructure loans will be carried out in four areas: projects in the housing and utilities sector, master plan activities for cities in the Far Eastern Federal District and the Arctic zone of Russia, projects selected as part of a competition, as well as projects implemented on the instructions of the President or the Chairman of the Government.

    Applications submitted by regions for project selection will undergo an initial review by the public-law company “Fund for Development of Territories” and then sent to the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Economic Development, the Ministry for the Development of the Russian Far East and the Ministry of Construction to prepare conclusions. The final decision on granting a loan will be made by the Presidium of the Government Commission for Regional Development.

    The total volume of treasury infrastructure loans planned to be provided to regions in 2025–2030 is 1 trillion rubles. The President instructed the Government to ensure the operation of this mechanism following the results of the Address to the Federal Assembly in 2024.

    In connection with the introduction of a new article into the Budget Code regulating the provision of treasury loans, the Cabinet of Ministers in February 2025 approved the rules for issuing treasury loans, according to which entities will be able to receive them for 15 years at 3% per annum.

    The use of this mechanism will allow the implementation of the activities of the new national project “Infrastructure for Life”.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Marat Khusnullin: In new regions, about 252 thousand real estate objects were identified as part of a comprehensive inventory

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

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

    In order to involve new real estate objects into circulation and increase the level of investment activity in the reunited regions, work on a complete inventory is ongoing. Thanks to it, 251,750 objects have been identified, information about which has been entered into the Unified State Register of Real Estate, Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin reported.

     

    “A comprehensive inventory in new regions is being conducted in two directions – studying archival documents confirming property rights to real estate objects or describing objects, and inspecting the territories. Thus, since the beginning of the project, work has been completed in 4,230 cadastral blocks. Also, based on archival documents, information on 1.4 million objects has been entered into the Unified State Register of Real Estate. In general, this colossal work allows us to create an accurate real estate register not only for the inclusion of new objects in circulation, but also so that citizens can quickly and without delays formalize their property rights and protect their property rights. Inventory is also necessary for further mass cadastral valuation of objects,” said Marat Khusnullin.

    As part of the inventory, the characteristics of objects, information about which is entered into the Unified State Register of Real Estate, are also clarified, and the title holders, unused lands, and ownerless buildings, structures, and premises are identified.

    “This work is carried out by the Roscadastre PPC under the coordination of Rosreestr. In particular, 13,662 unused land plots and territories with a total area of 112 thousand hectares have already been identified. In total, by the end of 2026, it is planned to conduct an inventory of more than 28 thousand cadastral quarters available for survey,” added Rosreestr head Oleg Skufinsky.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: The role of family in modern society was discussed at the State University of Management

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: State University of Management – Official website of the State –

    On April 29, the 2nd International Scientific Conference “Family in Modern Russian Society” was held at the State University of Management, organized by the Research Institute of Public Policy and Management of Industrial Economics of the State University of Management together with the university institutes.

    Today, family issues are given special attention at all levels. Thus, 2024 in Russia was held under the auspices of the Year of the Family and became fruitful in terms of long-term legislative, economic and social initiatives aimed at supporting Russian families.

    More than 50 students, postgraduates, applicants, scientists and teachers presented papers on the role of the family in Russian society, issues of family policy and traditional family values. Students and teachers of Russian universities, experts, representatives of government bodies and the clergy took part in the work of the sections. The Chairman of the Program Committee was Oleg Sudorgin, Director of the Research Institute of Public Policy and Management of Industrial Economy of the State University of Management.

    The conference included five sections.

    The section “Family and Marriage Values in the Minds of Modern Youth” was led by Deputy Director of the Institute of Personnel Management, Social and Business Communications for Research Galina Mokhova. Participants presented research on the specifics of family relationships and youth education, discussed the problems of trust in family relationships, and the perception of family and marriage by young people. Considerable attention was paid to the preservation and strengthening of intergenerational relationships and traditional family values.

    The Family Economy section, chaired by Galina Sorokina, Director of the Institute of Economics and Finance, discussed the specifics and issues of family economics and family budget in modern society. Representatives of the Russian Orthodox Church also took part in the work: the rector of the Spaso-Preobrazhensky Pronsky Monastery in the Ryazan Diocese, Abbot Luka (Stepanov), the rector of the Church of the Holy Blessed Prince Andrei Bogolyubsky on Volzhsky, Priest Kirill (Kraev), and the priest of the Church of the Life-Giving Trinity near Saltykov Bridge, Priest Grigory (Falin).

    The Vice-Rector noted that the SPbPU History Museum, creative semesters and last year’s innovation – musical changes on the White Staircase of the Main Academic Building – play an important role in the education and formation of students’ personalities.

    The number of visitors, projects and grants is also growing in the Polytechnic Tower. Work continues within the framework of the “We are together” campaign – for this the vice-rector separately thanked the Humanitarian Institute and the “Harmony” Center.

    Maxim Aleksandrovich drew the attention of the institute directors to the fact that the relevance of social and psychological assistance at the university has grown significantly.

    This year we managed to expand the staff of the Psychological Support Center; people are asking for help, and these are not just people who want to talk, but those who are really experiencing difficulties and problems, emphasized Maxim Pasholikov.

    Maxim Aleksandrovich spoke in detail about the events dedicated to the 80th anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War, talking about the festive decoration of the campus, exhibitions, the ongoing project “Scientific Regiment” and the new video project “Memory of Glory Lives”, the play “Engineers of Victory” and the upcoming press conference at TASS about the new book “Polytech. Fortitude. 1941-1945”. As always, the inter-university military-patriotic rally “Syandeba” and “Family Victory Day” will be held in the Polytech Park on May 17, including the traditional run named after Hero of the Soviet Union Viktor Lyagin.

    The second issue on the agenda was the presentation of academic titles. By a majority of votes, the members of the SC voted to award the academic title of “professor” to Vladimir Sergeev (PhysMekh) and Alexey Flimonov (IEIT); the title of “associate professor” to Alexey Lukin (PhysMekh), Roman Burkovsky (IEIT), Alexey Grachev and Dmitry Masailo from IMMIT, Alexander Moskvichev (IBSS) and Elena Ladik (ISI).

    In honor of the 80th anniversary of the Victory, the Polytechnic University is organizing a large-scale program dedicated to the heroes who participated in the Great Patriotic War from among the students and teachers of the university. Special projects cover in detail the fates of those who defended the Motherland on the front lines, those who survived the siege of Leningrad, and those who, sparing no effort, worked for the coming victory.

    The SPbPU History Museum presents the project “The Institute That Survived the War”. It consists of nine chapters, each of which is dedicated to the students, teachers and staff of the Polytechnic University during the Great Patriotic War. The project describes the work of the military hospital in the Main Building, the transformation of the university for the needs of the front, the activities of defense workshops, scientific developments of scientists and the learning process during that difficult time, as well as the participation of polytechnics in military operations. All information is illustrated with historical photographs and archival documents. It can be read on the website or listened to in audio format. These unique stories will allow you to better understand the fates of people who stood at the forefront of scientific and social life during the war years.

    The Polytechnic University park has information stands telling about the history of the university during the war years and the role of the Polytechnics in the victory. Each stand has a QR code, which can be used to obtain additional information and listen to an audio recording.

    The exhibition “The Path to Victory” presents the fates of great graduates of our university – engineers who made a significant contribution to the development of technical equipment of the USSR army. The exhibition also tells about polytechnics awarded the honorary title “Hero of the Soviet Union” and about students who went to the front or worked in the rear. The exhibition can be viewed on the first floor of the Main Building.

    At the end of May – beginning of June, a historical exhibition will be organized on the territory of Fort Reef, which will tell about the graduates and teachers of the university who played an important role in the development of Kronstadt and strengthening its defensive positions.

    Also in May, Library No. 9 will host an exhibition dedicated to the events of the Great Patriotic War and to Daniil Granin, a 1940 graduate of the Leningrad Industrial Institute, after whom the library is named.

    The events of the Polytechnic University will be a bright event for everyone who is interested in the history of our country and wants to honor the memory of the heroes of the Great Patriotic War. On the eve of Victory Day, new unique elements of the exhibition dedicated to one of the outstanding polytechnicians will appear in the SPbPU History Museum.

The project’s host, IMMiT student Yegor Bredikhin, talks about the university’s memorable locations and the unforgettable stories they have kept for decades.

    Supplementing the virtual chronicles of the university, the Main Building has boards dedicated to the heroes of the Polytechnics. The updated panels present biographies of our outstanding graduates and employees, whose heroism during the war became a symbol of unbending will and devotion to the Motherland.

    The Directorate of Cultural Programs and Youth Creativity of SPbPU organized a three-day showing of the production for Polytechnic students “Engineers of Victory”, which tells about the Polytechnicians who participated in the war and the university’s contribution to the victory. Soloists of the SPbPU Variety and Symphony Orchestra, the Student Theater, the Polyhymnia Youth Choir, the Polytechnic Chamber Choir, and students of the Humanitarian Institute took part in its creation with the support of the SPbPU History Museum.

    The Glagol People’s Theatre, where students and graduates of the university serve, will present a musical and poetic composition based on poems and documents from the wartime, “Shards of Silence,” on May 3. On May 10 and 17, the play “Thirteen Women of Sergeant Major Vaskov Between the Premonition of Great Love and the Expectation of Sudden Death” based on the screenplay by Boris Vasiliev, “The Dawns Here Are Quiet,” will be performed.

    Students, university staff and guests are invited to three festive concerts in the White Hall. On May 6, songs of the Great Victory will be performed, on May 7, music by Shostakovich performed by the Klassika Orchestra, and on May 8, songs by Bulat Okudzhava, a war veteran whose birthday is celebrated on May 9.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: More than 250 people wrote the “Victory Dictation” at SPbGASU

    On April 25, the annual international historical dictation on the events of the Great Patriotic War, “Victory Dictation”, was held within the walls of SPbGASU. According to the organizers, more than 250 students and employees of the university took part in it. More than two million people wrote it in all regions of our country and in 84 countries of the world.

    “Victory Dictation” was held simultaneously at three SPbGASU sites. Within 45 minutes, participants completed 25 tasks developed by leading historians of the country.

    Volunteer assistance in conducting the dictation was provided by activists of the all-Russian student project of Rosmolodezh “Your Move”, second-year bachelor’s students of the Faculty of Engineering Ecology and Urban Economy Victoria Marusey and Danil Ivanov. We asked them to share their opinions about the dictation, as well as to tell about their projects.

    “The dictation is our memory of the events of the war years. We must remember the feat of our ancestors,” Danil is sure.

    “Thanks to such events, young people learn more about history,” Victoria believes.

    Together with second-year undergraduate students of the Institute of Economics and Geophysics Alina Prikhodko and Anna Kozhina, Victoria is working on an environmental project within the framework of the “I Do” track, “Analysis of the state of soil and ground in St. Petersburg to assess the possibility of planting green spaces.” The result of the project will be an electronic map that visually displays the environmental state of various areas, as well as recommendations for planting plants. Information can be entered into the map by all interested city residents, and not only. “I have a special interest in ecology and strive to contribute to improving the environmental situation both in the city and in the country,” said the student, who is also the group leader.

    Danil Ivanov not only studies, but also works as a technologist in the company. As part of the “I Do” track, he is implementing the WaterTechnologies project, aimed at making the process of developing treatment facilities easier.

    “Any treatment facilities are very expensive and complicated. A lot of documents are created when implementing even simple water treatment plants for both drinking and technical purposes. The presence of such water treatment plants is the key to the development of any modern city. There are very few people who can and want to do such a complex task. They have a huge amount of work, and this overload causes burnout, inattention, which leads to errors. My project will help reduce the workload of each person, speed up the process of document development, reduce the influence of the human factor and make the water in our country a little cleaner,” the student said.

    One of the participants of the “Victory Dictation” was a fourth-year bachelor’s student of the construction faculty Zlata Zolotykh, who heads the “EcoTusa” project. The children collect waste paper and plastic caps, participate in city and all-Russian clean-up days.

    “This dictation is a very important event, and I am glad that so many of our students are here. The questions were interesting. I learned some things for the first time,” Zlata shared.

    “Victory Dictation”, aimed at increasing historical literacy and patriotic education of youth, is of particular importance in the year of the eightieth anniversary of the Great Victory and in the Year of the Defender of the Fatherland. At SPbGASU they do everything to instill in young people respect for the feat of our people during the Great Patriotic War.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Worst result in 8 years – mortgage market predicted to face a severe rollback

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Mainfin Bank –

    How will the mortgage lending market change in 2025?

    Experts’ forecast for issuance mortgage loans in Russia is disappointing – experts expect the worst result since 2016. As expected, in 2025:

    the number of executed mortgage agreements will decrease to 800 thousand, which will be 40% lower than last year’s level; the amount of issued loans will amount to 3.7 trillion rubles – a drop of almost 30%; the average bill will increase above 4 million rubles (a year earlier – 3.7 million rubles); an increase in the average payment is expected by 13% – up to 35 thousand rubles per month; the total volume of the banks’ mortgage portfolio, taking into account existing loans, will increase above the 20 trillion ruble mark.

    However, the forecast only takes into account the current situation without significant upheavals in the industry – it is based on a key rate of 18-21%: in the presence of shock events, the changes may be even more significant.

    Why are mortgage loans being issued in Russia decreasing?

    Negative dynamics in the mortgage loan segment have been observed since mid-2024, amid the cancellation of the preferential mortgage program in new buildings. The decrease in demand for housing loans is due to the following factors:

    high interest rates, often exceeding 30%; worsening conditions for government-supported programs; tightening regulation of the industry by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation; popularity of installment programs from developers – such loans already account for up to 50% of all contracts; continuing growth in housing prices – apartments are becoming less and less affordable.

    “It is not profitable for Russians to take out mortgage loans – now many families planning to buy housing prefer to open savings accounts and deposits, expecting a reduction in rates in the industry,” experts emphasize.

    Current borrowers have also changed their payment behavior – early mortgage repayment is becoming less and less popular, and by the end of 2025, only 2% of contracts will be closed ahead of schedule. Russians have fewer and fewer incentives to repay loans early, especially against the backdrop of favorable conditions for savings products.

    When will demand for mortgages among Russians recover?

    It is definitely not worth expecting even a partial recovery of the industry in the coming months. As the survey results show, most Russians are ready to take out a mortgage if market rates fall to 15-18% per annum. Every fifth borrower in the Russian Federation is willing to consider getting a loan even at 20%, and every tenth citizen is waiting for a reduction to 10%.

    However, there are no prerequisites for such a serious revision of the conditions on the part of banks no – the regulator has been keeping the key rate at the current level for several meetings in a row. The transition to easing monetary policy is expected in the second half of 2025, provided that inflation does not exceed the forecast values, but even in this case, one should not expect a sharp reduction in the rate.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Show “Don’t Sleep!” at the Polytechnic: music, interactive and acting performances

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Peter the Great St Petersburg Polytechnic University – Peter the Great St Petersburg Polytechnic University –

    The immersive music show “Don’t Sleep!” was held at the Polytechnic University Student Club. The event was decorated in the “Mafia” style and attracted over 300 guests.

    Several hours of music and interactive tasks, fingerprinting and solving the commissar’s board, acting performances and cut scenes – that’s how rich the show turned out to be. The songs were performed not only for the audience, but also with them. One of the features was the alternate performance of compositions by different groups under the direction of vocalists and the invitation of guests to a white dance.

    Each of us put a part of ourselves into the concert. I especially remember the rehearsals, when we devoted time to improvisation and created music the way we felt it together, — shared third-year student of the State Institute of Music and keyboard player Ekaterina Roslyakova.

    The acting troupe united members of the Polytechnic University Student Theatre and ETU “LETI” students. The participants of the show tried on different roles: a commissioner and his assistant, a doctor, a mayor, a cabaret owner and a crazy fanatic. They had to interact with civilians, who became fewer and fewer by the end of the show, while the number of mafia supporters increased.

    I have never seen such dedication from a team before. Despite the fact that a lot of effort was expended, with such active people it comes easy, – said LETI master’s student and the actor who plays the mayor Kamil Abdrakhmanov.

    The show “Don’t Sleep!” started in 2023 with a concert-house concert featuring members of the vocal studio Polyvox. This year, the event became one of the most anticipated events of April.

    I can’t believe that our show has become so popular! Everyone had an unforgettable experience. Despite the difficulties, this is exactly what we do everything for, and we need to keep moving forward. And the most valuable thing that this project has given me (and, I think, not only me) is the people, our team, the quartet, the community that together is capable of great achievements, – emphasized the vocalist and first-year student of the PISh “CI” Anastasia Sreznevskaya.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: “I hope that I will be able to initiate new research at the Higher School of Economics”

    © TASS

    More than 10,000 scientific projects were supported by the Russian Science Foundation (RSF) in 2024. One of the recipients of the foundation’s grants is a scientist from Iran, HSE Associate Professor Ahmad Ostovari Moghaddam. Thanks to the support of the RSF and HSE, he decided to stay in Russia for a long time.

    A conference was held at TASS to sum up the results of the RSF’s work last year. In his greeting, RSF Director General Vladimir Bespalov recalled that the foundation carried out its activities in accordance with the presidential decree, which defined the strategic directions for the foundation’s development until 2030. The RSF development program includes activities in four priority areas: support for scientific research and the development of research teams that occupy leading positions in certain areas of science; support for projects to develop promising and priority science-intensive technologies in order to solve problems associated with major challenges for society, the state and science; support for young scientists and popularization of the achievements of Russian science.

    In 2024, the funding volume for 10 thousand projects implemented with the support of the Russian Science Foundation amounted to 39.2 billion rubles, 60 thousand performers from more than 800 organizations in 81 regions of the Russian Federation worked on them, including from the Donetsk People’s Republic and the Zaporizhia region. Based on the results of research supported by the Russian Science Foundation, more than 45 thousand reporting publications were published. A significant part of them were published in leading peer-reviewed Russian and foreign scientific journals.

    The projects not only contribute to the “development of science, but also have practical value, ensuring the creation of new industries,” Vladimir Bespalov noted. In 2024, 2.3 thousand new projects were supported. “It is very important that one and a half thousand managers received grants from the Science Foundation for the first time,” the speaker said. At the same time, in 2025, with the support of the Russian Academy of Sciences, “the post-grant life of the projects will be implemented,” he added. According to him, “the research teams implementing the projects supported by the foundation are centers of attraction for young people in science.” The majority of project implementers (42.7 thousand) are under 39 years of age (inclusive), including more than 9 thousand postgraduate students and more than 7 thousand students.

    Associate Professor of the National Research University Higher School of Economics Ahmad Ostovari Moghaddam, a scientist from Iran, noted that he submitted documents to begin research in Russia and in a number of European countries. “But of all the options that I had, it was work in Russia that seemed the most interesting and convenient. This concerned both the interesting topic for scientific work that was proposed at the Higher School of Economics and the advanced equipment that the university provided,” the scientist said. HSE gave him the opportunity to “form his own research teams.” “I have permanent young research associates who work with me, and I also have the opportunity to implement projects in my own laboratory at the Higher School of Economics,” he noted.

    It was thanks to the support of the Higher School of Economics and the Russian Science Foundation (the foundation awarded the scientist a grant twice) that Ahmad Ostowari Moghaddam decided to stay in Russia for a long time. The project that the scientist is currently implementing at the Higher School of Economics is related to the use of catalytic technologies. “I am also studying the reaction of oxygen reduction from carbon dioxide. My future goal is to increase the focus on practical research, to move away from the academic format. Although, of course, publishing articles and participating in scientific projects are extremely important, I would like my research to also benefit people, making their lives easier and more convenient. As one of the recipients of the Russian Science Foundation grant, I hope that I will be able to initiate new research at the Higher School of Economics,” he noted.

    The scientist recommends “all young researchers from foreign countries to join scientific work in Russia, to come and implement their projects here.”

    The press conference was also attended by Georgy Yakovlev, Assistant to the General Director of Svetlana-Rost (he spoke about the implementation of a new technology in the field of the full-cycle semiconductor industry) and Director of the Research Institute of Neurosciences of the Lobachevsky State University of Nizhny Novgorod, laureate of the Russian President’s Prize in Science and Innovation for Young Scientists Susanna Gordleeva. She emphasized that a very important mission of the RSF is to support young scientists. Speaking about her personal experience, Susanna Gordleeva noted that “she started with winning a small RSF grant”, and this year she was lucky enough to win an interdisciplinary RSF grant, where there was a competition of about 20 people per place. “We are trying to develop biologically plausible realistic mathematical models that we build on the basis of experimental data to explain the mechanisms of formation of cognitive functions, as well as the development of neurodegenerative diseases,” she said about her work. The obtained research results allow us to move “to the development of new promising artificial intelligence technologies that will be built on the principles of the brain’s functioning.”

    According to the Chair of the RSF Expert Council, Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences Yulia Gorbunova, last year marked the tenth anniversary of the RSF’s existence and its work was cited as an example of the “gold standard”. “Of course, when we talk about finances, it is very important how we distribute them, to whom, for what work we give this money. And here, of course, the correct examination mechanism is very important, which is constantly being improved at the RSF,” she noted. In particular, according to her, the procedure for selecting experts is very thorough: their achievements, their scientific reputation are assessed, possible conflicts of interest are identified, etc.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Adventures of Foreigners in Russia. How a Telegram Channel Helps Foreign Students

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Peter the Great St Petersburg Polytechnic University – Peter the Great St Petersburg Polytechnic University –

    Life is in full swing at the Saint Petersburg Polytechnic University: the university was recently visited by an unusual guest — Arina Rylova, a representative of the popular Telegram channel “Adventures of Foreigners in Russia.” The meeting within the university walls turned into a real brainstorming session: activists of student organizations supervising the adaptation of foreign guests shared their experiences, and the guest shared success stories and plans for the future.

    Imagine: a student from Nigeria comes to Russia, gets lost in a pile of documents, doesn’t know where to run. We become his guides, — the channel’s representative begins the presentation. The project, which has united tens of thousands of subscribers, works as a multilingual bridge between foreigners and Russian bureaucracy. Through a bot integrated with the Ministry of Digital Development, the guys quickly resolve migration issues. The channel publishes life hacks in five languages (Chinese, English, French, Arabic, Spanish): how to open an account, extend a visa or find a doctor.

    But this is just the tip of the iceberg. The channel is also a social lift.

    “Last year, our activists visited the SPIEF and the Russia-Africa forum,” the speaker says proudly. “The guys were able to communicate with the leaders of their countries.”

    The faces of the channel’s heroes flash across the screen. Here is Ibrahim from Algeria. He entered, learned Russian so well that he received citizenship, and now he runs a blog for his fellow countrymen. Next to him is a smiling student from Africa, whose blog about life in Russia was noticed by Yandex and invited to work.

    We don’t just provide information – we open doors, the speaker emphasizes.

    In response, Polytechnic student leaders are demonstrating their ecosystem of support. PolyUnion is a whole world.

    Adapters and tutors meet newcomers at the airport with signs in their native language, help with documents, and even teach them how to pay for the metro. The Council of Associations from 20 countries organizes Nowruz, Chinese New Year, and excursions around St. Petersburg and other Russian cities. The guys act as a link between students and the university administration. The Women’s Club creates a safe space for female students: from culinary master classes to career advice. The UN Model turns classrooms into diplomatic arenas, where foreigners hone their Russian in heated debates.

    Polytechnic University foreign students try to take part in activities outside our university: Our volunteer group recently visited Rzhevka, where we spent time walking dogs from a local shelter. For many students who left their pets at home, this trip was special – they happily interacted with animals, played with cats and shared warmth with those who need it, – shared one of the PolyUnion leaders and the ideological inspirer of the “Women’s Club” Alexandra Le Gall.

    PolyUnion actively participates in organizing humanitarian aid for countries that have found themselves in difficult situations. For example, in previous years, they collected aid for Syria and Turkey, and now they are holding an action for Myanmar. Collection points are open in the main building of the university, the Interclub and the dormitory: you can bring clothes, medicines, long-term storage products and other necessary things there. Everything collected through the embassy will be sent to Myanmar to support people affected by the crisis.

    Olesya Stepanova, Head of the Special Projects Department of the Polytechnic University’s USO, spoke about joint projects with foreign students, including the development of instruction cards for applicants from abroad who want to study at SPbPU. The meeting culminated in joint plans. The first candidates from the Polytechnic University will take part in the Summer International Gathering of the channel, which will become a platform for training bloggers.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Getting to Know the Technologies of the Future: Participants of the SUM Accelerator Visited TechnoSpark

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: State University of Management – Official website of the State –

    Participants of the Acceleration Interuniversity Program “City Energy. Environment 2.0”, implemented by the State University of Management, visited “TechnoSpark” and got acquainted with the latest developments. The excursion was organized by the Department of Project Management of the State University of Management.

    The event was attended by teams of students from our university, Bauman Moscow State Technical University and MIRE, who are developing the following technological startups: thermoelectric material for use in optoelectronics and solar batteries, a device for generating bioenergy, a heated thermo mug, capsule fitness clubs, a bull-machine, a system for automating warehouse complexes, a device for monitoring and cleaning air, an adaptive lighting system, a multifunctional bath, soap production and processing technology and others.

    TechnoSpark, a part of the Rusnano Group, is the industrial partner of the program, so the participants came here for expertise and to discuss measures to support their technological startup projects. It should be noted that it was at the request of TechnoSpark that the participants developed their projects and selected young specialists for their teams from other universities.

    The tour included demonstrations of the latest production sites, expert consultations with teams, and a pitch session for projects.

    Participants learned about contract manufacturing opportunities for startups and corporations and about the most powerful exoskeleton in Russia, visited a metalworking shop and saw ready-made solutions for external customers: umbrella sharing for the Metro, Tubot in-pipe robots for hard-to-reach branched pipelines for the Transneft company.

    The teams got acquainted with the latest domestic developments in warehouse management – intelligent logistics robots RONAVI Robotics for solving various tasks of warehouse and production logistics, as well as with the products and services of TEN Optics, which applies various types of coatings to glass. They saw how artificial diamonds are grown.

    Specialists and experts from MED Print companies demonstrated their own production of bone and joint implants that quickly grow into human tissue and allow to shorten and facilitate the rehabilitation period, talked about the launch of serial additive production of medical and plastic products, demonstrated finished products for people and animals. And at the Russian Flexible Electronics Center, accelerator participants learned about the production of EPD displays and other components for flexible plastic electronics in the largest clean room in Russia.

    At the end of the excursion, a pitch session was held, at which the teams presented their developments on technological projects and discussed the possibilities of further cooperation with TechnoSpark and its partners.

    “This accelerator shows the effect of the requests that the teams are developing their projects on: these are extremely popular areas of technological production in our country, these are specific partner companies that are looking for exactly these solutions. It is also great when managers, marketers, and guys from technical universities: chemists, engineers work in one team. The development of the project ceases to be just conceptual, but is overgrown with specific solutions, which we saw today in the form of models, sketches, drawings, formulas. If the guys managed to do this in two and a half months, then it will be interesting to see what they will show at Demodna, taking into account today’s comments and remarks,” said Yuri Bocharov, General Director of Contract Manufacturing TEN Group of the Rusnano Group.

    The acceleration interuniversity program “City Energy. Environment 2.0” is held at the State University of Management from February to June 2025 and is already the seventh acceleration program implemented at the State University of Management since 2022. This year, over 120 teams from 26 Russian universities are participating in it.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: The Digital GTO took place at SPbGASU

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Saint Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering – Saint Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering – Participants of the Digital GTO. In the center – Yulia Yakovleva and Ilya Gladushevsky

    The Digital GTO test was taken at SPbGASU on April 22. Over the course of an hour, 77 schoolchildren and college students answered one hundred questions about construction, design, and 3D modeling. Those who scored more than 70 points out of a possible one hundred will receive an additional five points to their Unified State Exam results when entering SPbGASU for the training program 08.03.01 Construction and specialty 08.05.02 Construction of unique buildings and structures.

    “Digital GTO” is an interactive test developed by the Etalon Group and the National Association of Organizations in the Sphere of Information Modeling Technologies (NOTIM) as part of the career guidance project “I am the builder of the future!” of the Public Council under the Ministry of Construction of Russia. “Digital GTO” is designed to help future young specialists determine the level of their digital competencies in the field of construction. The project’s objectives are to expand opportunities for admission, prepare sought-after professionals, and fill the personnel shortage.

    The Digital GTO project was launched at the Growth Point of SPbGASU. Ilya Gladushevsky, responsible secretary of the admissions committee, associate professor of the department of ground transport and technological machines, addressed the participants: “I have already seen many of you and will see you again in the summer. Today you have a unique opportunity to participate in the Digital GTO project! The day will be eventful and interesting!” he noted.

    Yulia Yakovleva, Head of Adaptation and Special Projects at Etalon Group, spoke about the tasks included in the test and why it is held at our university: “The tasks were developed by employees of EtalonProekt, the general designer of our group. We can say that this is not a basic level, but a level “with an asterisk”. The test is intended for those who already have in-depth knowledge, participate in career guidance events, and are passionate about their profession. Today, many companies are hunting for personnel and hold their own events to work with future students. Even kindergartens are specialized – they start raising personnel from the cradle!”

    We asked the guys why they came to SPbGASU to take the Digital GTO.

    Vadim Savelyev, 11th grade student of Gymnasium No. 261 (St. Petersburg): “I am planning to enroll in SPbGASU. I am choosing between the Industrial and Civil Construction and Construction of Unique Buildings and Structures programs. It is interesting to learn about the university, to see it from the inside. I have not been here yet, but I have many friends, and they have told me about it. The fact that you can get additional points is also important. I prepared on my own, studied programs, new technologies. And my school teachers helped.”

    Maria Krestyaninova, a fourth-year student at the Academy of Urban Environment Management, Urban Development and Printing (AUGSiP, St. Petersburg): “I came here because I am very interested in this profession. Friends told me that they teach well here, the teachers are good. And the extra points interested me. I have studied many programs over four years. I rely on my knowledge and hope for a good result.

    I am currently writing my thesis. I will be applying to SPbGASU this year.”

    After the formal part, the participants went to the computer rooms and started taking the test. The children concentrated on solving the tasks for an hour, then they had a tour of our university. Arina Sukhacheva, a third-year student of the architecture department, introduced the audiences, the model workshop, and the drawing department. Returning to the “Growth Point”, the children watched a presentation about the university prepared by Elena Abashina, a fourth-year student of the construction department, a specialist in the admissions committee. The results were summed up and the winners were awarded here. The scores were calculated by a computer program. The best results were shown by five people:

    Timofey Isaev (gymnasium No. 52, 9th grade) – 90 points; Alexey Ermilov (school No. 18, grade 11) – 76 points; Yaroslav Karachakov (school No. 531, 10th grade) – 75 points; Ivan Postnikov (gymnasium No. 540, 11th grade) – 75 points; Tikhon Bayruk (school No. 18, 11th grade) – 73 points.

    “I have 90 points. Luck was on my side today! I will definitely apply to PGS. It was difficult at the Olympiad itself!” said Timofey Isaev.

    “You can only participate in the Digital GTO in person. This time, schoolchildren and college students from St. Petersburg, Krasnodar, Tula and other cities came to us. In the future, we plan to cooperate with the Etalon Group to disseminate information about the project as widely as possible,” said Elvira Tkachenko, deputy responsible secretary of the admissions committee.

    “We will conduct the “Digital GTO” on the platform of the Public Council under the Ministry of Construction of Russia “I am the builder of the future!” quite often. If it didn’t work out this time, there will be a chance next time!” – Yulia Yakovleva, a representative of the Etalon Group, encouraged the guys.
