  • MIL-OSI Russia: Moscow introduces artificial intelligence to detect hip arthrosis on X-rays.

    Moscow has integrated a new artificial intelligence service into its healthcare system to identify signs of hip osteoarthritis in medical images, marking the 41st modality where neural networks assist radiologists. This advancement was announced by Anastasia Rakova, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Social Development.

    Developed and tested by specialists at the Center for Diagnostics and Telemedicine, the AI algorithm has completed rigorous testing and is now integrated into the Unified Radiological Information Service (URIS). “The algorithm automatically identifies potential osteoarthritis indicators – such as joint space narrowing, bone thickening, and bone spur highlighting affected areas and performing precise measurements”, she stated.

    “Moscow now utilizes AI across 40 clinical modalities. These innovations accelerate diagnosis, improve accuracy, and reduce the workload for radiologists”.

    Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic joint disorder characterized by progressive cartilage degradation and bone remodeling. While prevalent among older adults, it can occur at any age. A new AI service deployed in Moscow assists radiologists in identifying key indicators of hip OA, including joint space narrowing, subchondral sclerosis (bone thickening), and osteophyte formation. This automation reduces image interpretation time, enhances diagnostic accuracy, and enables earlier therapeutic intervention.

    “The AI service enhances early detection of hip arthrosis, enabling timely treatment and better patient outcomes.”

    Yuri Vasilev, Moscow’s Chief Consultant for Radiology of the Moscow Healthcare Department, emphasized the clinical impact: “Accurate imaging assessment of hip osteoarthritis allows precise staging of hip OA, informing treatment strategies such as activity recommendations and pharmacotherapy. Key clinical signs of osteoarthritis include pain during ambulation and reduced range of motion in affected joints.”

    This AI deployment builds on five years of Moscow’s pioneering efforts to integrate computer vision in healthcare. Over 200 AI services have been tested, with approximately 100 algorithms incorporated into the URIS UMIAS system. Currently, around 50 AI tools analyze medical images in real-time, improving diagnostic speed and quality across 40 clinical modalities.

    The project is a collaboration between the Moscow Social Development Complex, the Center for Diagnostics and Telemedicine, and the city Department of Information Technology, underscoring Moscow’s commitment to leveraging AI for enhanced medical care.

    BEIJING, June 26 (Xinhua) — China has the confidence and capacity to maximally cushion the negative impact of external shocks on its economy and promote sustainable and healthy economic development, Li Chao, an official with the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), said at a press conference on Thursday.

    The external environment is becoming increasingly complex, severe and unpredictable, posing challenges to the stable growth of the global economy and trade, she said. All of this could affect the sustainable functioning of China’s economy, she added.

    Recall that in the first quarter of 2025, China’s GDP grew by 5.4 percent year-on-year, accelerating from the 5 percent growth rate recorded for the whole of 2024. China has set a target of 5 percent economic growth this year.

    She also noted that existing support measures continue to operate, and new measures are being introduced. In particular, large-scale equipment modernization and the program of replacing old consumer goods with new ones under the trade-in scheme are playing an increasingly significant role in the country in stabilizing investments, stimulating consumption, promoting economic transformation and raising people’s living standards, she noted.

    According to her, thanks to this program, sales of home appliances, furniture and communication devices have grown rapidly, and this year the sales volume of goods under the program exceeded 1.4 trillion yuan (about 195.48 billion US dollars).

    The Chinese government has earmarked 300 billion yuan to issue ultra-long-term special government bonds to support the consumer goods trade-in program in 2025, with the first two tranches of funds totaling 162 billion yuan issued in January and April, Li Chao said, adding that the third batch of funding will be released in July. -0-

  • MIL-OSI Russia: The creation of a high-altitude park on the site of the Moscow monorail will begin at the end of June

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    The monorail site will be replaced by the first year-round high-altitude park in Russia. This idea The Active Citizen project supported more than 71 percent participants of the vote.

    The monorail will stop working on June 28. Part of the overpass — from the Vystavochny Tsentr station to the monorail depot, including the Ulitsa Sergeya Eisensteina station — will be dismantled to make the view of the main entrance of VDNKh even more attractive. The park is scheduled to open in 2027.

    Today, the monorail has alternatives. These are convenient and fast routes through new metro and MCC stations, as well as tram, bus and electric bus routes – they partially duplicate its route.

    After the closure, all monorail system employees will be offered new jobs in other parts of the city’s transport system.

    The monorail was built over 20 years ago, but during this time it has not become a full-fledged part of the city’s transport system. A planned inspection revealed the need for major repairs. Today, the monorail is a tourist attraction, its passenger flow is less than two thousand people per day. These are mainly guests of the capital or Muscovites who use it occasionally. For comparison: eight thousand passengers a day travel by cable car on Vorobyovy Gory. Most city residents choose convenient and fast routes through the new metro and MCC stations, as well as trams and buses with electric buses.

    The monorail will get a second life in the form of a new park space for residents and guests of the capital. On the territory of 40 thousand square meters, they plan to arrange a running track, alleys, cafes and places for rest. The park will be open around the clock, admission is free. This place will become a new landmark of Moscow. Here you can meet with friends and family, play sports, walk dogs, relax with children.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Denis Manturov held a meeting on the development of food engineering.

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

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

    First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov held a meeting on the development of mechanical engineering for food and processing industries. The event was attended by representatives of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Ministry of Agriculture, as well as leading associations, industry enterprises and food producers.

    The participants of the meeting discussed the current situation and development prospects of the industry, the technological independence of which plays an important role in ensuring food security in Russia. Food engineering includes 12 key sub-sectors – from equipment for the flour and cereal industry to packaging and filling machines. Today, the industry is ready to almost completely cover the market demand for equipment for the grain industry, catering, and packaging machines. The average level of equipment localization here is more than 50%. It is planned to gradually expand the presence of domestic manufacturers in other equipment segments.

    More than 270 enterprises are involved in the production of equipment for the food and processing industry. According to the results of last year, the market volume demonstrated significant growth and exceeded 377 billion rubles, which is a third more than the 2023 figure. At the same time, the production volume in all segments increased by almost 55% compared to 2023 and amounted to 216 billion rubles. The leader in growth was the livestock equipment sector, where production volumes increased more than 2 times. In 2025, the industry continues to show positive dynamics in production volumes, despite the high base of last year.

    To support domestic manufacturers and stimulate the purchase of high-performance Russian equipment, the Russian Ministry of Industry and Trade is implementing a program of subsidizing discounts on special equipment and machinery, thanks to which almost 81 thousand units of equipment have been sold in 4 years (from 2021 to 2024). Over the next three years, 38 billion rubles have been allocated for this program, of which 12 billion rubles are for this year. In parallel, R&D support is provided, allowing for the development of serial production of new types of equipment and components that previously had no Russian analogues. This tool is also relevant for food industry enterprises that intend to produce the necessary equipment in Russia at their own facilities. For example, farmer and cheese maker Oleg Sirota received support for the implementation of a project to develop and launch a domestic cheese production line into series production. In addition, food engineering enterprises have access to preferential loans from the Industrial Development Fund. Since last year alone, a decision was made to support 5 projects, the amount of preferential loans for them exceeded 1.2 billion rubles.

    At the same time, conceptually new approaches to industry work have been formed at the moment, aimed at building an effective chain of interaction between consumers and producers. The processes of development and launching new types of equipment into serial production are built around the needs of potential buyers, who, in turn, determine the need for such equipment in advance. This allows machine builders to correctly distribute production resources, calculate the terms and cost of project implementation, as well as its prospective payback. Government support measures are also focused specifically on projects that are implemented in accordance with the technical specifications of food industry enterprises. During the meeting, the first results of projects organized within the framework of such interaction were presented.

    The meeting also considered the issue of import substitution and reengineering of equipment and components that are critical for the stable operation of the agro-industrial complex. Work in this area is being carried out by the Russian Ministry of Industry and Trade together with the Russian Ministry of Agriculture and the Agency for Technological Development (ATD). In 2022–2025, the ADT supported 59 projects in the interests of mechanical engineering for the food and processing industries for a total of over 760 million rubles.

    Special attention at the meeting was paid to the issue of re-equipping food service facilities in educational institutions of the DPR, LPR, Zaporizhia and Kherson regions with domestic equipment, work on which has been underway since 2023. Over the past period, local institutions have been supplied with over 18 thousand units of equipment, which made it possible to provide hot meals for children in almost 1.7 thousand schools and kindergartens.

    Tashkent, June 26 (Xinhua) — The driving force behind the sustainable development of cooperation between China and Central Asian countries is the two sides’ commitment to the spirit of “mutual respect, trust, benefit and support,” Professor Nodira Murodova, head of department at Navoi State University, said in an exclusive interview with Xinhua.

    According to her, for Uzbekistan these principles are not just diplomatic slogans, but a real basis for a long-term and stable partnership with China, as well as for the entire region. She emphasized that it is on this foundation that strong and trusting interaction between the two countries is built.

    Mutual respect, according to N. Murodova, is the basis of deepening Uzbek-Chinese relations. China, as the expert noted, consistently demonstrates respect for the sovereignty, social structure and development strategy of Uzbekistan. “Such a sincere attitude on equal terms allows us to more confidently and independently build external relations, forming a truly equal partnership,” she said.

    Particular importance is also attached to mutual trust, which the expert called a guarantee of the strength of cooperation. “Thanks to regular high-level contacts, intergovernmental dialogues and projects implemented in practice, strong political trust has been formed between our countries,” N. Murodova noted. She also added that in such strategic areas as regional security and infrastructure development, Uzbekistan and China maintain close coordination and dialogue.

    As for the principle of mutual benefit, the professor emphasized that it is reflected in concrete results. “In key areas such as infrastructure, energy, agriculture and the digital economy, Chinese companies have brought advanced technologies and management experience to Uzbekistan, creating many jobs,” the expert said. China’s participation in the construction of roads, railways and energy facilities, according to her, helps strengthen production chains and accelerates the country’s modernization process.

    N. Murodova also particularly noted the importance of mutual support, which is especially evident at critical moments. “Whether it is the difficult period of the COVID-19 pandemic or today’s efforts on environmental transformation and development of education, Uzbekistan and China always act together. Such support at key moments is a manifestation of the true spirit of a community with a common destiny,” she said.

    In conclusion, the professor expressed confidence that, based on the principles of “mutual respect, trust, benefit and support,” cooperation between China and Central Asian countries, including Uzbekistan, will continue to deepen and expand, serving the interests of the peoples and strengthening peace, development and cooperation in the broader regional and international context. –0–

    BEIJING, June 26 (Xinhua) — The “China’s Xinjiang – Central Asia” media salon was held Wednesday at the scenic Hoshanhong Distillery tourist area in Turpan, northwest China’s Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. Twenty-three media representatives from China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Turkey watched the documentary “Turpan – A Place I Dreamed About.”

    The event was attended by the film’s creator Muhammad Obidov, who is also the chairman of the Union of Journalists of the Fergana Region and the editor-in-chief of the Fergana Pravda newspaper. This film was shot under his supervision in Turfan in August 2024.

    As M. Obidov said, he came to Turpan in 2023, taking advantage of the opportunity to record an interview as a journalist. After spending just one day there, he was deeply impressed by the local culture, traditions and natural landscapes, and an idea to make a documentary about this place began to emerge in his head. In 2024, during a second visit to the city, he managed to realize his dream.

    According to M. Obidov, the documentary is currently available for viewing in Uzbek, Russian and Chinese. In Uzbekistan, the film was broadcast on several leading media structures and received a favorable response from the audience.

    “This is a touching documentary that faithfully tells the story of the development of Turpan’s grape industry, the rapidly renewing appearance of the city and the happy life of local residents, which contributes to the humanitarian exchanges between China and Uzbekistan,” said Song Tao, deputy head of the Propaganda Department of the CPC Committee of Turpan City.

    Turpan, located in the eastern Tianshan Mountains of Xinjiang, is a mountain basin. Despite the dry climate and sparse rainfall, thanks to the wisdom of local residents, it has become a green oasis and a famous wine-growing region in the country.

    According to statistics, by the end of 2024, the area of vineyards in Turpan exceeded 630 thousand mu /42 thousand hectares/, where more than 550 varieties of grapes are grown. It accounts for about 40 percent of the total grape production in Xinjiang. -0-

    On June 23-24, the Polytechnic University hosted the XXIII conference “Corporate Library Systems: Technologies and Innovations” – KorFor-2025. Participants included library managers and employees, IT specialists, suppliers of electronic databases and equipment for automating institutions.

    The conference has been held since 2001, with a break in 2020. This year, more than 250 people participated in person and 500 specialists online from Russia, Belarus, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Italy. Experts discussed the activities of university, public and departmental libraries. The work took place in the format of discussion panels, strategic and thematic sections.

    At the plenary session, the Director of the Information and Library Complex of SPbPU Alexander Plemnek spoke with a report “AI as a driver of the transformation of libraries and librarianship on the horizon until 2035.” He compared the development forecasts that he made at conferences five and ten years ago, showing that many have come true, and earlier than predicted. Alexander Plemnek paid attention to one of the innovations of AI in 2025 – autonomous agents that are able to act independently, without direct human control, to achieve their goals. They resemble digital employees.

    The integration of GenAI and autonomous agents doesn’t just add new tools to a librarian’s toolbox; it fundamentally redefines what a library is and what librarians do. The profession is at a crossroads, facing extraordinary opportunities for growth and innovation, said Alexander Plemnek.

    Professor Fabio Di Bello, Wiley Client Training Manager, spoke online with a report entitled “Expanding the Possibilities of Academic Librarianship: Artificial Intelligence, Large Language Models, and the Future of Knowledge Management.” The expert demonstrated the capabilities of AI in translation. On the screen, a digital double of the speaker, who does not speak Russian, not only recited the text in literate Russian, but also reproduced facial expressions and phonetics of the language.

    The expert panel “From the instruction of the President of the Russian Federation to the implementation of the Concept of the federal project “Development of scientific and technical libraries”” became the most important event of the conference. It was attended by the acting Director General of the Russian State Public Library for Science and Technology Natalia Mikhalchenkova, Director of the M. Gorky Scientific Library of St. Petersburg State University Marina Karpova, Vice President of the Russian Library Association, Director of the Fundamental Library of the Herzen State Pedagogical University Natela Kvelidze-Kuznetsova, as well as representatives of other universities.

    Natalia Mikhalchenkova revealed the goals of the federal project aimed at transforming the state system of scientific and technical information to achieve technological leadership of the country. She focused on the project’s tasks in 2025 related to the creation of an up-to-date register of scientific and technical libraries subordinate to various ministries and departments, as well as the development of programs for improving the qualifications of librarians. Representatives of the universities of St. Petersburg and Kazan showed a variety of areas of development of university libraries dedicated to the collection, distribution and recording of scientific resources.

    Experts of the section “More than a library” presented a project for promoting and supporting the results of intellectual activity, new digital platforms for interaction with library services in 24/7/365 mode, spoke about events for creating educational video content, organizing a literary club and open lectures.

    The strategic session “Vectors of Development of Russian Discovery Systems: What Users Really Need” brought together developers of a modern domestic information search service that has replaced foreign systems, and representatives of universities that use it. A fruitful dialogue allowed us to see the progress over the first year of the system’s existence and discuss development directions based on the results of surveys of service users.

    Leading providers of scientific and educational databases shared their vision for the development of online resources and services for integration with university libraries.

    At the section “Electronic libraries, repositories, sites and applications” experts presented various options for electronic storage. For example, in the National Electronic Library of the Udmurt Republic – preservation of cultural heritage, in the repository of scientific data of SPbPU – various results of scientific research, including unpublished ones.

    The section “New library environment: developing vs. breaking traditions” showed different approaches to transforming libraries, from changing physical premises to introducing new virtual services, using AI assistants for readers and employees. Of particular interest was the report on projects for digital transformation of departmental library activities (using the Bank of Russia library as an example).

    At the round table “Practice of using the services of the SuperStat and FEDURUS projects in libraries,” a discussion was held on new forms of access to subscription resources based on a login and password, and the organization of collection and analysis of statistics on the use of online resources in an automated mode.

    The expert discussion “Acquisition and new regulatory documents: monitoring the situation, adapting to practice” concluded the conference program. Specialists from the National Library of Russia considered current issues related to the introduction of new regulatory documents that cause difficulties.

    On June 25, excursions were organized to the libraries of St. Petersburg, after which the participants became acquainted with the features of digital transformation in the libraries of the Republic of Karelia.

    An exhibition was held in the reading room of the IBC SPbPU, where one could get acquainted with the latest generation of book scanners from ELAR, which have improved the digitization and recognition of texts in many languages due to the introduction of AI, and test RFID equipment from various suppliers to optimize reader service.

    All speeches and presentations will be made publicly available. The conference materials will be posted in the Electronic Library of SPbPU and indexed in the Russian Science Citation Index.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: HSE neurolinguists have found out which apps are best for helping to restore speech

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: State University Higher School of Economics – State University Higher School of Economics –

    Scientists Center of Language and Brain HSE University has identified factors that make digital rehabilitation applications for patients with aphasia more effective. Feedback, a variety of game tasks, a long period of rehabilitation and constant contact with the attending physician were found to be the most important for restoring speech function. Articlepublishedin the journal NeuroRehabilitation.

    Aphasia is a disorder in which there is a complete or partial loss of the ability to speak and perceive the speech of others, which is associated with damage to the areas of the brain responsible for speech functions. The main causes of aphasia are stroke, traumatic brain injury, inflammatory diseases of the brain, brain tumors, dementia.

    Aphasia significantly reduces the quality of human life, so scientists have long been looking for effective methods to restore speech function. With the spread of smartphones and tablets, another promising and rapidly developing area of rehabilitation has emerged – “serious games” (SG) in applications.

    This is a special type of digital games that are created not only for entertainment, but also to achieve specific educational, training or research goals. In the field of education, they help in the professional training of specialists, teaching students, and learning foreign languages. In healthcare, such games are used in the rehabilitation of patients.

    With the help of applications, a person with aphasia can perform speech training tasks and gradually restore the lost ability. The effectiveness of such applications has already been proven, but it remained unclear what tasks and functions should be included in the applications and how long to work with them in order to achieve maximum success.

    Scientists from the HSE Center for Language and Brain studied the PubMed and ScienceDirect databases and selected 18 articles devoted to testing mobile and computer applications for rehabilitation in aphasia.

    The researchers paid special attention to situations where training led to greater results. For example, a patient trained in naming 100 words, but improved in naming 150 words, or was able to use the learned words not only in oral speech, but also in writing. Sometimes the use of smart games led to the development of related skills: for example, a person trained speech, but improved attention.

    Fourteen out of 18 articles (78%) noted that patients’ use of the app had a positive effect. Most studies proved the app’s effectiveness by the primary criteria: exactly what was trained improved. And eight articles (44%) reported that the results exceeded expectations. Most often, the person could use the trained word in other contexts, such as in writing. In addition, two articles described improvements in other higher mental functions.

    As the analysis showed, the efficiency of the applications was influenced by such factors as automatic feedback, variety of game tasks used in training, long periods of treatment, and patient-doctor interaction. The last point is especially important, since rehabilitation therapists additionally motivate the person and evaluate intermediate results.

    “In our center, we are working on creating a game for the rehabilitation of patients with aphasia. A review of the research will help test it in the most effective mode, implement the functions necessary for successful operation. Existing applications often have few gamification elements; in fact, they are electronic collections of exercises. We will try to correct this shortcoming in order to increase user engagement,” said Georgy Gorshkov, a junior research fellow at the HSE Center for Language and Brain.

    BEIJING, June 26 (Xinhua) — China’s National Immigration Administration (NIA) on Thursday announced a decisive crackdown on illegal drug trafficking, reporting that it had seized 2.42 tons of narcotics in operations in border areas and at border crossings in the country in the first half of this year.

    According to the State Border Service, as of June 25, immigration services across the country have solved 205 drug-related cases at border areas and checkpoints this year, resulting in the arrest of 242 suspects.

    Of these cases, 38 were major, each involving batches of prohibited substances weighing more than 10 kg.

    This result was made possible by intensifying efforts to combat cross-border drug trafficking and introducing innovative police methods, the department reported.

    Key strategies include increased border screening and interdiction, comprehensive interdiction measures targeting entire drug trafficking chains, and greater use of big data.

    Immigration authorities across the country should maintain a strong suppression and resolute fight against drug crimes in border areas and checkpoints, conduct in-depth studies of drug trafficking routes and crime methods, and expand practical cooperation with neighboring countries in law enforcement, the department said. -0-

    BEIJING, June 26 (Xinhua) — Wang Yi, a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee and director of the Office of the Foreign Affairs Commission of the CPC Central Committee, met with Harvard University professor Graham Allison in Beijing on Wednesday.

    During the meeting, Wang Yi noted that the Chinese adhere to the concept of “harmony without uniformity,” which is fundamentally different from Western thinking in the spirit of “zero-sum games” and implies harmonious coexistence based on recognition and respect for mutual differences, the formation and expansion of common interests between countries.

    What China and the United States need to do now is build a new narrative that will govern future interactions between the two major powers, he said.

    Wang Yi said the principles of mutual respect, peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation proposed by President Xi Jinping serve as the fundamental guideline for China in its relations with the United States. He hoped that the U.S. side would work with China to resolve the fundamental issue of mutual perception, so as to set the tone for bilateral relations and find the right path of coexistence under the guidance of the three principles.

    “We hope that clear-minded people in American society will play an active role in shaping an objective and positive perception of China in the country and promoting normal exchanges between the two countries,” Wang added.

    G. Allison, in turn, noted that the concept of “harmony without uniformity” has in common with respect for diversity, which is valued in the United States, and both sides must find strategic positioning for coexistence in order to avoid falling into the “Thucydides trap.”

    The United States and China should establish a new principled framework for the future development of bilateral relations, taking mutual respect as a possible primary principle, the professor said. He expressed his willingness to make new contributions to promoting contacts and exchanges between the two sides and ensuring the stable development of interstate relations. -0-

The main objective of the project is to digitalize the processes of ensuring legal protection of the results of intellectual activity and commercialization of rights to intellectual property of SPbPU. The implementation of the platform will speed up the process of ensuring legal protection of the results of intellectual activity and increase the receipt of funds for the commercialization of rights to intellectual property.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: The most obedient dogs will compete for the Capital Cup

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    The first championship for dog owners will be held as part of the Summer in Moscow project “Capital Cup” in obedience. The competition will be held on June 28 from 10:00 in the canine park on Kolskaya Street (property 16a). They will be part of the all-Russian sports competitions and the Russian Cynological Federation (RKF) championship in obedience. In addition, the championship is included in the program of the series of events “Friend, savior, protector”, aimed at highlighting the role of dogs in the life of modern society.

    Sports discipline “obedience”

    Obedience is an international sport discipline in which a dog, under the guidance of a handler, must perform exercises with maximum precision, speed, and initiative. It arose from the basic skills of animal training: calling, moving close, endurance, control at a distance.

    Inna Baranova, chief judge of the RKF championship “Cup of the Capital”, RKF judge for working qualities of dogs of national certification competitions, sports judge of the first category, says that at the competitions not only the correctness and technique of completing tasks are assessed, but also the nature of the interaction between a person and a pet during the performance.

    Russian athletes remain among the leaders in obedience in the world. In 2016, the Moscow region hosted the World Championship, which brought together participants from 25 countries. The Russian team then took second place, and in 2021, they won gold at the World Championship in Switzerland.

    This discipline is currently experiencing a period of growth in our country. Almost every subject of the Russian Federation has a section in which athletes take their first steps under the guidance of experienced instructors. Five or six all-Russian competitions are held annually. Trainers from Russia are in demand in neighboring countries.

    The first “Capital Cup” championship in obedience together with the RKF championship in Moscow is aimed at developing and popularizing the culture of systematic dog training based on mutual understanding between the animal and the person. The focus is not only on sports achievements, but also on the social significance of the discipline: it clearly demonstrates the importance of ethical treatment of animals, a careful and thoughtful approach to their training. The higher the level of training, the safer the dog is for both others and the owner.

    Such events help to strengthen the culture of responsible dog ownership, reduce the level of conflicts between pet owners and local residents, and also become a good factor in the development of a comfortable urban environment – a priority goal of the “My District” program.

    Sergei Sobyanin: Full-fledged canine parks will be created in MoscowA large canine park has appeared in the south of Moscow

    Features of the competition

    Sports pairs compete in three difficulty classes: Obedience 1, Obedience 2 and Obedience 3. The latter is the most difficult, and it is in this class that major international competitions and world championships are held under the auspices of the International Cynological Federation (FCI).

    “The pair (human and dog) must demonstrate a set of exercises, the number and complexity of which depend on the class in which they perform. Points from five to 10 are awarded for each exercise, where five is the minimum positive assessment, and 10 is the ideal performance of the exercise. The accuracy of command execution, the speed of the dog’s reaction, and its ability to maintain concentration throughout the entire exercise are taken into account. The overall impression of the work during the entire performance is also assessed: contact with the handler, desire to work, and positive mood,” says Inna Baranova.

    Championship program

    The championship in the canine park on Kolskaya Street will also be held in the highest difficulty class. Athletes will compete in two parallel rings. 12 sports pairs from Moscow, Moscow, Voronezh, Kostroma and Vladimir regions will compete for the title of RKF champion and the sports title of “Master of Sports of Russia”. The overwhelming majority of participants in the “Obedience-3” class perform with border collie dogs, but this championship will feature a pair that includes a Russian black terrier – the pride of Russian cynology.

    After lunch, the program will continue with all-Russian competitions in the Obedience-2 and Obedience-1 classes, where there will be a fight for sports ranks.

    The Obedience 2 class will feature 12 sports pairs from Moscow, Moscow, Voronezh and Nizhny Novgorod regions. Spectators will see such breeds as the Labrador Retriever, Russian Hunting Spaniel, Golden Retriever, Miniature Schnauzer, Belgian Shepherd and Australian Kelpie.

    The largest class, “Obedience-1,” will bring together newcomers: 20 sports pairs from five regions of Russia with a wide variety of dogs, from a tiny Pomeranian to a giant Great Dane.

    Each participant will perform eight exercises, and their performance will be assessed by a panel of judges consisting of two sports judges and two stewards, who work in two parallel rings.

    Accessibility of the discipline and requirements for participants

    The discipline “obedience” is suitable for dogs of all breeds and sizes, including mongrel animals. The main requirements are the absence of aggression, physical and mental health, readiness to interact with the handler. You can try your hand at the initial level from the age of 10 months.

    Most often, border collies participate in such competitions, but animals of other breeds, from small to large, including service and decorative ones, regularly join them. The level of training of the handler plays a significant role. The discipline requires systematic work, a consistent approach and a long training process.

    Obedience demonstrates the possibilities of effective interaction between humans and dogs, being one of the most universal and accessible areas in modern sports cynology.

    Master classes on training and expert advice

    An additional program has been prepared for guests. There will be master classes on training, as well as consultations with specialists – dog handlers, groomers, veterinarians. A separate area will be made for children, where creative activities will be held. Quizzes and a photo zone will be organized for visitors with animals.

    The series of events “Friend, Rescuer, Defender” will begin in the capital on May 24

    “Pets in Moscow” — a project of the Moscow Mayor’s “My District” program aimed at creating new types of dog walking areas. Today, the capital has 79 such spaces, including two dog parks. They are suitable not only for free walks with pets and effective training, but also for large dog events — competitions and exhibitions.

    “My area” — a comprehensive program of the Mayor of Moscow for the development of the urban environment. Its goal is to create comfortable living conditions in all areas of the capital. Convenient courtyards, landscaped parks, modern social infrastructure facilities within walking distance are important components of the program.

    Cycle “Friend, savior, protector” — a project covering more than 200 events, is a platform for a full-fledged dialogue between professionals — dog handlers, veterinarians, groomers, zoopsychologists — and dog owners, as well as for anyone who is just thinking about getting a four-legged friend. The series is aimed at popularizing a responsible attitude towards animals and raising the level of knowledge of city residents about the maintenance, upbringing and role of dogs in society. This year, the events are held from May 24 to September 14.

    Project “Summer in Moscow”— the main event of the season. It brings together the most vibrant events of the capital. Every day, charity, cultural and sports events are held in all districts of the city, most of which are free. The Summer in Moscow project is being held for the second time, and the new season will be more eventful: new, original and colorful festivals and events will be added to the traditional ones.

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    A new enterprise will appear in TiNAO as part of the implementation of a large-scale investment project (MaIP). For this, the city will allocate a large land plot in Krasnopakhorsky District to the investor, said Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Urban Development Policy and Construction Vladimir Efimov.

    “A universal high-tech multi-temperature logistics complex will be built in Krasnopakhorsky District. To implement this large-scale investment project, the city will allocate 10 hectares of land to the investor on the territory of the emerging food cluster. The enterprise will be able to employ 900 people. The investment amount will exceed 10 billion rubles,” said Vladimir Efimov.

    Large-scale investment projects have been implemented in the capital since 2016. Moscow allocates land plots for lease for the construction of such facilities.

    “On the instructions of Sergei Sobyanin, the capital continues to form sustainable cooperation links between industrial enterprises. Clustering plays a key role in this process. For example, thanks to the food cluster in the Krasnopakhorsky District, the industrial area of which will be more than 800 thousand square meters, more than 11.4 thousand new jobs will be created,” added the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry Maxim Liksutov.

    Investors who invest in the creation of jobs and the development of the city’s infrastructure can obtain the status of MAIP.

    According to Ekaterina Solovieva, Minister of the Moscow Government, Head of the Department of City Property, the logistics complex will appear near the village of Troitskoye, where a large food cluster is currently being created. The land lease agreement is planned to be concluded for four years after the formation of the site and its registration with the state cadastral register. This is the period during which the investor must complete the construction of the facility with an area of 80 thousand square meters. The city will monitor the implementation of the large-scale investment project at all stages.

    Investors have already been provided with plots of land in the emerging food cluster for the construction of a distribution center for a meat processing plant, enterprises for the production of ready meals, bakery, dairy, confectionery and other products.

    Earlier, Sergei Sobyanin said that Moscow is actively developing its own production complexes.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Mountain hares released into the wild in Losiny Ostrov National Park

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    In the Moscow part of the Losiny Ostrov National Park, six young white hares were released. The event was part of the work to restore rare species of animals with the support of the Moscow Government andDepartment of Nature Management and Environmental Protection.

    The white hare is one of the native species of the fauna of Losiny Ostrov. Today, its numbers have decreased here. According to experts, this happened about 25 years ago due to viral infections. The species is listed in the Red Book of the city of Moscow.

    “Last year, the Department of Nature Management and Environmental Protection of the capital, together with the scientific community, conducted a unique ecological and biological survey of the territory of the Moscow part of the Losiny Ostrov National Park. Scientists discovered more than 1.5 thousand species of plants and animals. Today’s event on the release of the mountain hare is dedicated to the restoration and conservation of rare species. The natural environment of Losiny Ostrov is suitable for the mountain hare, it will be good here, since it is a forest species and the park has all the conditions for it to survive, reproduce and its population to become sustainable. The return of animals to the natural environment became possible thanks to the systematic work of the rehabilitation center and scientific support. We hope that monitoring with camera traps will confirm the successful adaptation of the hares, and the data from genetic analysis will help in further work to preserve the population,” said Natalya Chukhrayeva, Deputy Director of the State Nature Conservation Center.

    The baby hares released into the wild were born in the specialized rehabilitation center “Hare’s House”. Adult individuals who ended up there for various reasons regularly give birth to offspring. Grown-up animals adapted to independent life are released into a natural environment suitable for their survival.

    Scientific support for the release of the white hares was provided by employees of the A.N. Severtsov Institute of Ecology and Evolution of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Before this, specialists took blood samples from the animals. The immune analysis data will allow us to study what infections the animals encounter during their lives, understand whether there are potential carriers of diseases dangerous to humans among them, and establish family ties in the future if new individuals are recorded in the park.

    “Losiny Ostrov” is a unique natural complex, one of the main assets of Moscow. Rich biodiversity is preserved here, including due to systematic scientific work. Thus, in 2024, a large-scale ecological and biological survey was conducted in the park, in which more than 80 scientists from five scientific institutes took part. They identified over 1.5 thousand species of animals and plants. More than 200 of them are rare and protected. Based on the results of the survey, experts gave recommendations for supporting vulnerable animal species, and programs for the conservation and restoration of rare species were developed.

    In addition, field research continues in Losiny Ostrov. In April, scientists began studying the biodiversity of water bodies using the Babaevsky Pond as an example. During the first surveys, specialists took samples of phyto- and zooplankton, and also selected benthic organisms living in the soil of the reservoir.

    Field environmental research has begun in the urban part of Losiny Ostrov

    Comprehensive monitoring of the nature of the Moscow part of Losiny Ostrov is carried out in order to assess the well-being of ecosystems, their condition and dynamics.

    The city part of the national park is home to species listed in the Red Book of Moscow, including the kestrel, the great crested newt, the red forest ant, the emperor dragonfly and others. Educational work in this area is carried out by the eco-center of the Department of Nature Management and Environmental Protection “Krasnaya Sosna”. Ecological walks and excursions are organized for visitors.

You can go on your first game journey to the festival venues of the Moscow Estates project.

    How to participate in the quiz

    Virtual characters of the game – cartoons – live near historical landmarks, on the capital’s streets and in parks. You can find them using your smartphone and explore the city from a new angle. It is absolutely necessary to complete a quiz if such a task is offered by a cartoon. But in this case, more bonuses are awarded than just for catching cartoon characters.

    The quiz questions are about museum exhibits, the histories of masterpieces, architectural innovations and features of estates. For example, where does the name “Basmanny” come from? What architectural innovation emphasized the status of houses in the Arbatsky district in the 19th century? What is unique about the building of the Leo Tolstoy Museum-Estate in Khamovniki?

    To get a bonus, it is enough to answer at least two questions correctly. One quiz can be taken three times. Hints are available – the correct answers are on the exhibition stands inside the estate clusters. Hints can also be found on a special page of the service Ruspassdedicated to the festival.

    Residents of the capital and tourists over the age of 14 can take part in the game. To do this, you need to download the application Ruspass. After registration, a map of Moscow will open with the habitats of cartoons in different districts. The game sites are constantly changing so that the characters can visit different iconic places of the city. Bonuses received in the game can be spent on buying tickets to museums – partners of Russpass, on attractions, trips to master classes and more. Recently, the game became interregional: cartoons can be caught in St. Petersburg and Kazan.

    In addition, the augmented reality game based on the Russpass mobile application has been replenished with new summer cartoons that can be caught on the streets of the capital near the sights. They are created in the special style of the Summer in Moscow project. Among them are a butterfly, a bird, a squirrel, a robot and a cat — the mascot of the Russpass service.

    TIANJIN, June 26 (Xinhua) — Summer Davos 2025, a leading barometer of global economic trends and industrial transformation, has attracted a record number of participants in recent years, with more than 1,700 representatives from around the world.

    Its popularity is a testament to both the influence of the forum, which runs from Tuesday to Thursday in the northern Chinese city of Tianjin, and the unprecedented appeal of China’s mega-market.

    The forum, also known as the 16th annual meeting of the World Economic Forum (WEF) of emerging global leaders, is being held this year under the theme “Entrepreneurial Spirit for a New Era”.

    “This theme, which has been at the core of the meeting’s DNA since its inception, places particular emphasis on how innovation, entrepreneurship and technological advancement can unlock the potential for growth, competitiveness and productivity,” WEF Managing Director Mirek Dušek said at the forum’s opening press conference on Tuesday.

    This year’s event focuses on five key areas: interpreting the global economy, China’s prospects, industries in a changing world, investing in people and the planet, and new energy and materials.

    Unlike the WEF’s annual meeting in January in Davos, Switzerland, “Summer Davos” focuses more on the future of business and technological progress. This year’s forum not only showcases China’s achievements in high-quality economic development and its strong commitment to high-level opening up to the outside world, but also serves as a platform for actively sharing the opportunities and dividends of its development with the rest of the world.

    GREEN TRANSFORMATION

    On the roof of the Tianjin National Exhibition and Convention Center, where Summer Davos is being held for the first time, solar panels provide a continuous supply of clean energy to power the event site.

    According to State Grid Corporation of China, the forum achieved 100 percent green power supply for its facilities, using a total of 800,000 kWh of renewable electricity, equivalent to saving about 300 tons of standard fuel and reducing carbon emissions by about 600 tons.

    The event venue uses photovoltaic energy generation and sponge city technologies to replace traditional energy sources with renewable ones, reduce the carbon footprint of infrastructure and significantly improve the efficiency of energy, water and materials use.

    Sustainability is at the heart of WEF events, said Severin Podolak, Head of Event Management at WEF, adding that sofas and other furniture at venues are made from materials recycled in 2023, and some of the paint used in decoration comes from renewable resources such as fishing nets.

    In addition, a fleet of hundreds of electric vehicles from six leading car manufacturers, including Audi FAW, provides clean and low-carbon transportation for forum participants, contributing to the event’s carbon neutrality goals.

    The concept of green development was carefully and comprehensively integrated everywhere: from the design of the venues to the brochure with the forum agenda, where key topics such as Asian carbon markets and further steps in climate change adaptation became central points of discussions directly related to sustainable development.

    Green nitrogen fixation has been included in the WEF’s “Top 10 Breakthrough Technologies for 2025” list, alongside innovations such as participatory sensing and autonomous biosensing, further highlighting the trend towards sustainable development becoming a global priority.

    Today, China is the world leader in renewable energy investment and has pioneered transformative technologies in batteries and electric vehicles, creating millions of quality jobs in these promising sectors, said WEF Managing Director Jim Hui Neo.

    “I think there is huge potential in this area to learn from the Chinese experience, where constructive partnerships can be formed between China and other parts of the world to support the global energy transition,” she said, adding that “the climate emergency and the planetary crisis cannot be resolved unless everyone is united in this journey.”

    AI REVOLUTION

    The futuristic exhibition area has become a major attraction, where cutting-edge AI products such as humanoid robots, brain-computer interfaces, and fully autonomous drone inspection systems attract numerous visitors. These innovations vividly showcase the technological breakthroughs of Chinese enterprises and the pioneering application of AI.

    “China may have found the key to restarting global economic growth – its ‘AI Plus’ strategy,” said Liu Gang, chief economist at the China Institute of Next-Generation Artificial Intelligence Development Strategies.

    He explained that the integration of artificial intelligence with the real sector of the economy provides remarkable economic advantages. For example, his team’s research shows that the use of AI in the development of new materials can increase efficiency by 100-1000 times.

    Discussions on AI are unfolding with unusual intensity across the various sessions at Summer Davos 2025, mirroring the heated debates at other leading global forums. Notably, a special session on “Understanding China’s Approach to AI” will be convened, highlighting the growing international recognition of China’s key role in global AI development.

    “It will be like an industrial revolution,” former British Prime Minister Tony Blair said, speaking about new technologies at the forum. Countries that embrace it go up, and countries that don’t go down, he said.

    “I think understanding, harnessing and using the technological revolution is the greatest government challenge of the 21st century,” he said.

    GLOBAL SYNERGY

    Global growth forecasts are at their lowest in decades, according to the WEF. Reviving the spirit of cooperation will require unprecedented commitment and creativity.

    Nankai University Professor Tong Jiadong, who has long led the China Agenda Research Team for the Tianjin Summer Davos, noted that the event has evolved from a leading global summit of thought leaders into a dynamic platform for promoting international exchange and cooperation.

    Zhao Yan, Chairman and CEO of China’s Bloomage Biotech, is a regular participant in Summer Davos. Over the years, the company has built a global supply network in more than 70 countries and regions around the world.

    “Despite complex uncertainties, the enterprise has never resorted to isolationism, but instead strives to reformat the global rules of competition through open innovation,” Zhao Yan said.

    In the first five months of this year, China’s total import and export volume of goods grew by 2.5 percent year on year, and the consumption enthusiasm of foreign visitors to China increased significantly.

    “We value our cooperation with China very much. We are seeing increasing interest and engagement here,” said WEF President Borge Brende. “I am relatively optimistic about the Chinese economy in both the medium and long term,” he added. -0-
