both the growth and the costs of european companies losing the name of the russian market have long-term consequences, the result here is an obvious loss of global competitiveness and a systemic slowdown in the growth rate of the european economy, and for years to come all this leads to an aggravation of deep problems in western societies. yes, of course, we have enough problems of our own, but i have to talk about it now, because they need to poke their fingers all the time, and they themselves have enough problems. i talked about this too in taoist b a direct consequence of the actions of european politicians and the events of this year will be a further deepening of inequality in these countries, which in turn will further split their societies, and the question is not only in the level of well-being, but also in the value of the guidelines of various groups in this society. yes, now these contradictions are suppressed, democratic procedures are swept under the carpet, elections in

europe, to be honest, sometimes you look at what is happening there. what forces come to power, but it all looks like a screen, because each other in power is changed, similar, like twin political parties, however, the very essence of this does not change, the real interest and citizens of the national business are pushed further away to the shutters on the periphery, such a separation from reality from the demands of society will inevitably lead to a surge of populism and growth extreme radical currents to serious socio-economic changes to degradation, and in the near future, to change. elite well traditional party. how do you see losing constantly? some new formations appear, but if they are few what distinguishes them from the traditional chances of survival are also a little all attempts to make a good face, with a bad game, all the talk about supposedly acceptable costs, in the name

of pseudo-unity, they cannot hide the main european union has finally lost its political sovereignty, and its bureaucratic elites dance someone else's tune. accepting everything they are told from above, causing harm to their own population and their own economy to their own business, what else is there a fundamental deterioration in the situation in the global economy - this is not question of recent months. right now, uh, i will focus on things that are considered extremely important. this is not the result of what is happening is not the result of recent months. of course not, especially not the result of a special military operation carried out by russia in the donbass, such statements are frank and deliberately distorting the facts. a sharp increase in inflation in the commodity and raw materials markets became a fact long before the events of the current year, the world was in

such a situation, which consistently drove many years of irresponsible macroeconomic policy of the countries of the so -called g-7 including uncontrolled and mission and accumulation. unsecured debts, and these processes only accelerated, first the fall of the coronavirus back in 2020, when the supply and demand for goods and services declined dramatically on a global scale and the military operation in the donbass has nothing to do with it at all, without inventing or not wanting to use other recipes for power, leading western economies, simply launched a printed the machine in such a simple way began to cover previously unprecedented budget deficits. i have already mentioned this figure for the last 2 years. for 2 years, the money supply in the united states has grown

by more than 38%; there was such an increase decades ago. and here for 2 years 38%. this is $5.9 trillion by comparison, only a few countries in the world have larger gross domestic products, the money supply of the european unions, in turn. also increased dramatically over this period it would not have increased by about 20%, or by 2.5 trillion euros. lately i've been hearing more and more about it . already called me. excuse me, i don't like to study here, yes, and generally mention myself somehow, but i can't help but say, but we all hear about the so-called putin's inflation in the west. all the time, when i see this, i think all the time, for whom this stupidity is calculated for those who cannot read and write. that's all people who at

least know how to read understand, in fact, that russia is going on, our actions to liberate donbass have absolutely nothing to do with it. today, rising prices inflation is a problem with food and fuel gasoline in energy. in general, this is the result of systemic mistakes in the economic policy of the current us administration and european bureaucracies. that's where the reasons are and only in this, i'll tell you about our operation. yes, it had some significance, but the root of this is precisely in their erroneous economic policies. for them , the beginning of our operation in the donbass is a lifeline that allows them to dump their own calculations on others, in this case on russia, but everyone who has at least a primary school education understands the true reasons for today's situations printed money in defense quantities. and then where did all these funds go? obviously, including the purchase of goods and services outside western countries.

that's where they flowed this money, printed, they literally began to vacuum up the global markets about the interests of other states, including the poorest, of course, no one thought and you didn’t want to think. they were left with just what is called, as our people say, lumps, yes, and at astronomical prices, so if at the end of the nineteenth year imports were imported into the united states was about 250 billion dollars a month just now. it grew to 350 billion dollars, it is noteworthy that the growth was 40%, in proportion - this is exactly the same as not backed by anything. e pumping dollar money supply in recent years. they printed money for this, and for this money they won all the goods from the markets of third countries. i will add here that the united states has long been a major

supplier of food to the world market , deservedly really deservedly proud and was than its agriculture tradition and farming. well, and this is an example for many. and for us, by the way, speaking too. but today america's role has changed dramatically as a food exporter. she has become a net importer. roughly speaking, they print money and draw commodity flows over themselves, buying food all over the world. an even higher rate of increase in imports of goods is observed in the european union, it is clear that such a sharp increase in demand, not backed by product supply, launched a wave deficits and global inflation. where does this global inflation come from? over the past couple of years, almost all raw materials and consumer goods have risen in price in the world, especially food. yes, of course, these countries,

including the states, they continue to import, but the balance between exports and imports is already in the other direction; in my opinion, there are already 17 billion more imports than exports. that's the thing. according to the un, in february of this year, the world food cost index turned out to be 50% higher than in may 2020, and the composite index of commodities over the same period did double in terms of conditions. inflationary storms. many developing countries have a reasonable question. and why exchange goods for dollars and euros, which are losing everything before our eyes, the conclusion suggests itself that the economy of imaginary entities will inevitably be replaced by the economy of real values ​​and assets. according to the mof, there are now 7.1 trillion dollars and 2.5 trillion euros in the global foreign exchange reserve, and this money is

depreciating at a rate of about 8% per year. but besides , at any moment these, uh, they can be even confiscated stolen, if the united states does not like something in the policy of certain states, but this, in my opinion, has become absolutely realistic for very many countries that store. e your gold, flight reserves. in these currencies patients are experts already in the coming years. this is pure uh objective analysis in the coming years the process of converting global reserves will be launched. it's just that they have nowhere to go with such a deficit, if the currencies that are losing their value are now resources. other countries will, of course, do so. such as food energy carriers are other raw materials, it is obvious that this process will further spur global dollar inflation, as far as europe is concerned here. an additional negative contribution

to the unwinding of prices was also made by the failed energy policy of blind betting on renewable sources and spot supplies of natural gas, which led to a sharp increase in energy costs, which has been observed since the third quarter. this growth is observed from the third quarter to the quarter of the year and i repeat again well before the start of our operation on donbass, we have done absolutely nothing to do with it ourselves , idiots. prices soared to the skies and more guilty again according to the calculations. the west not only spoke about the increase in the cost of many goods, but also led to a decrease in the output of fertilizer, primarily nitrogen, produced from natural gas. in general , only the middle of last year to february of the current global prices for fertilizer increased by more than 70%. unfortunately,

there are no prerequisites for changes in such price trends today, on the contrary, against this background, the work of enterprises and logistics of fertilizer supplies from russia and belarus thus, the situation is even more driven into a dead end, it is not difficult to calculate the further development of events. the lack of fertilizer means a decrease in yield. this means that the risks of undersupply of food to the world market will increase. prices will go even stronger upwards, which threatens hunger primarily in the poorest countries, and this will be entirely on the conscience of the united states administration and the euro-bureaucracy. once again emphasized that the problem appeared not today, not in the last three or four months and absolutely exactly it arose through no fault of russia, as some demagogues now say, trying to shift the responsibility for everything that happens in the world economy to our country. well, of course, we could have been pleased

to hear that we are so mighty and all powerful. we inflate inflation there to the sky, and in the west, in the usa, in europe, we are doing something else there that makes everyone in a fever, maybe it would be nice for us to feel such power, but this is not a mature situation. it was spurred on by the short-sighted actions of those who were accustomed to solving their own problems. problems at someone else's expense, who relied and still relies on the mechanism of financial emission in order to buy out trade flows, and thereby exacerbate deficits and, uh, provoke humanitarian catastrophes in certain regions of the world, and i want to add this, in fact. everything. the same predatory colonial policy. well , of course, in the new form in the new edition it is much more subtle and sophisticated right away and you won’t understand what is happening. now the most important task for

the entire world community is to increase the supply of food products to the global market, including in particular, to meet the needs of countries that are especially in need of food, russia ensures its internal food security of its domestic market, and is able to significantly increase the export of food and fertilizers, for example, the volume of our grain supplies next season can increase to 50 million. their deliveries to those countries where the need is greatest. in food, where there are risks of an increase in the number of hungry people, we are primarily talking about african countries and the region in the middle east, however, there are difficulties here. also arising through no fault of ours. yes, formally, the americans imposed sanctions on russian grain food fertilizers, by the way, the americans imposed sanctions, then the europeans followed them on our fertilizers. the americans

took it, canceled it, understood where the europeans were. no, they just have a bureaucracy. uh, like millstones in an 18th century mill, so everyone understands. what, uh, what stupidity was done, but somehow it is already difficult to unscrew it back for democratic reasons. well, i repeat, russia is ready to contribute to balancing of world markets, e agricultural products, and we, of course, e we welcome the openness to dialogue on this issue on the part of colleagues from the un who understand the acuteness of the global food problem, the subject for such a conversation could be the creation of normal conditions for logistical financial transport to increase russian exports of food and fertilizer about can't. this is also not to say speculation. unfortunately, there are also a lot

of ukrainian deliveries to world markets in this regard. yes we are not an obstacle. for god's sake, we didn't mine it. uh, let the black sea ports of ukraine clear mines and carry it, there is no question of ensuring the safety of the wiring of these civilian ships, not at all. well, what are we talking about, and according to the estimates of the us department of agriculture, this is six million tons of wheat, and according to our estimates, somewhere around five, somewhere around 7 million. it's about corn and that's it. and if we keep in mind that 800 million wheat is produced in the world, then 5 million tons for the world market. as you understand, the weather does nothing at all, but nevertheless the possibility of export there are, and not only through the black sea ports, please, through belarus to export these cheapest ways, by the way, speaking through poland romania as many as five or six options for a sign are there, but it's not about us , it's about the adequacy of the people who are

in power in kiev let them decide what to do in this case as well, at least not focusing on their masters somewhere abroad abroad. uh, from across the ocean. and there is another danger that this grain will go to the stronghold of the supplied weapons, but this then it will be completely sad. dear friends, as i already said, the modern world is going through an era of fundamental changes ; international institutions of security guarantees are breaking down. come on, on principle , refused to comply, where it was they themselves previously obligated to reach any new agreements with him, it turned out to be simply impossible in the current situation against the backdrop of increasing risks and threats for us, russia's decision to conduct a special military operation was forced. difficult for sure, but forced and necessary is the decision of a sovereign country, which has an unconditional right based, by

the way, on the charter, it defends its security, a decision aimed at protecting our citizens, residents of the people's republics of donbass, who for eight years were subjected to genocide by the kiev regime and neo-nazis who received full protection . west the west not only sought to implement the scenario of anti-russia, but also led an active military development of ukrainian territory. literally pumped up ukraine with weapons and military advisers continues and now , in general, to be honest, no one understands and does not pay attention to the development of the economy on the well-being of the people living there; and do not regret today, our soldiers and officers, the militia of donbass , are fighting to protect their people, defending the rights of russia to free and

safe development, as a large multinational country that itself makes a decision itself determines its future, relies on its history, culture and traditions, and rejects all attempts not to cause pseudo-values, dehumanization and moral degradation. all the tasks of the special military operation will certainly be solved and pledged there. and the key to this courage and heroism of our soldiers is the consolidation of russian society, whose support gives strength and confidence to the army and navy of russia a deep understanding of the rightness of the historical justice of our cause building and strengthening the strong sovereign power of russia what i want emphasize sovereignty in the 21st century cannot

be partial fragmentary. all of its elements are equally important. they reinforce complement each other. therefore, it is important for us not only to defend our political sovereignty and national identity, but also to strengthen everything that determines the economic independence of the country, its financial personnel, technological independence and independence, the very structure of western sanctions was built on the false thesis that russia, from the point of view of view of the economy is not sovereign critical vulnerable. she is so they are so spreading the myths of russia's backwardness from the weakness of its opposition and the world economy and trade. that themselves judging by around the this will believe. planning my economic blitzkrieg. they did not notice, they simply ignored the real facts, how our country has changed in recent years. and

what changes and such changes are the result of our planned work to create a sustainable macroeconomic structure to ensure food security, the implementation of import substitution programs, the formation of our own payment system and so on, of course, sanctions restrictions have posed many difficult tasks for the country, part of the enterprise continues to experience problems with components, a number of technological solutions have become inaccessible to our companies , logistics has been disrupted, but on the other hand, all this opens up new opportunities for us. we often talk about this. but it really is. so all this is an incentive to build an economy that has a complete partial technological production. kadrov scientific potential and scientific sovereignty, of course, such a complex task cannot be solved, what is called at one moment, it is necessary to continue systematic work, designed for the

future, and this is exactly how russia acts, implementing long-term plans for the development of economic sectors, strengthening the social sphere, and current tests only make adjustments and clarifications to these plans, but do not change their strategic focus. and today. i would like to dwell on the key principles on the basis of which our country our economy. the first is openness , truly sovereign states are always tuned in to equal partnerships to contribute to global development, and on the contrary, those who are dependent with a paw, as a rule, are busy looking for enemies, planting xenophobia, or completely losing their originality, independence blindly, following the sovereign overlord , russia despite the fact that our western friends, so to speak, literally dream of it, they will never

follow the path of self-isolation. and moreover we are the author we are expanding and will continue to expand our interaction with everyone. those who are interested in this, those who want to work with us will not list many of them. this is the vast majority. e people on earth. now i will not list. eh, all these countries. everyone knows about it, i won't say anything new. if i remind you that everyone who wants to continue working and working with russia is subjected to open pressure from the united states and europe. sometimes they even reach direct threats, but such blackmail is not enough. what does it mean when it comes to countries headed by real leaders who clearly understand where the foreign, and where the national interests of their own interests of their peoples russia will build up with such state economic cooperation to promote joint projects. at the same time, of course, we

will cooperate with western companies that, despite unprecedented arm-twisting, continue to successfully operate on the russian market. there are those too. we see strong predictable foundations for deepening international cooperation development of a convenient and independent payment infrastructure in national currencies, and in order to help the companies of our countries establish logistical cooperative ties, we form the development of transport corridors, increase the capacity of railways. transshipment capacities of ports. in the arctic in the east south other directions. including form the black sea and caspian basins. they will become the most important. e, a section of the north-south corridor, which will provide stable communication channels with the middle east and south asia, expecting that already in soon the traffic on this route will begin to grow steadily. but not only international trade is important. russia intends to

increase scientific technological cultural humanitarian sports cooperation on the principles of equality and respect for partners. at the same time, our country will strive for responsible leadership in all these areas. the second principle of our long-term development is the reliance on entrepreneurial freedom, every private initiative aimed at the benefit of russia should receive maximum support and space for implementation. pandemic. current events have confirmed how important flexibility and freedom are in the economy, it is private business in harsh conditions against the backdrop of attempts to restrain our development by any means that has proved that it is able to compete in global markets adaptation to rapidly changing external conditions also occurs at the expense of private business, it is necessary to ensure dynamic development economy, of course backed by private business. we will continue to reduce the administrative burden from 2016 to 18. we have a moratorium on

planned inspections of small businesses in the future, it was extended in total until the end of 22 years in 2020, this motor also covered medium campaigns. in addition, the number of unscheduled inspections has decreased by almost four times, but we went even further and in march of this year we abandoned scheduled inspections of all entrepreneurs, regardless of the size of the business, with one condition, if their activities are not associated with a high risk of harm to citizens and the environment. environment. as a result, now the number of scheduled inspections compared to last year decreased by six times. why am i now talking about this in such detail ? such a result has not grown, but the number of violations has decreased and this indicates the maturity and responsibility of russian

business. he needs to be motivated. and of course, do not force compliance with the requirements. so, if everything has every reason to take another cardinal step. forward forever on a permanent basis to refuse to conduct most inspections of all russian business, activities that are not associated with high risks of harm. everyone has been for a long time. clearly not, the need to go and check everyone in a row should work, a risk-oriented approach. i ask the government. determine the specific parameters of such a reform in the coming month and here is another very sensitive topic for business, and today it is also a matter of our national security and economic sustainability, in order to reduce and minimize various kinds of loopholes to put pressure on entrepreneurs. we

are consistently removing the vague norms of criminal law in terms of the so -called economic offenses. in march , a law was signed according to which criminal cases against entrepreneurs on tax structures can only be initiated upon the proposal of the tax service. payment of tax arrears. in general, you need carefully, but at the same time thoroughly approach the decriminalization of a number of so -called economic offenses, for example, those relating to work without a license or accreditation. now this is a very delicate issue due to the legitimate behavior of our western partners, for example, who refuse to provide such persons. in such cases, our state bodies should not. what is called with your own hands to bring russian businesses under the article, despite

the fact that the real fault of our entrepreneurs there is no, well, you know, what it's about, but those who work in the small business are fine too. it is understood that the license has expired. uh, western partners do not overcome anything for them to turn off, business, or what? whatever it is, let it work. it is necessary, of course, to keep everything under control of the state, but not interfere with their work. consideration should also be given to raising the threshold for liability for non-payment. in addition, their and other obligations are mandatory. in addition, we have not changed for a long time, the parameters for determining large and especially large damage, despite the accumulated inflation, such a discrepancy between the norm of the law and realities of life certainly needs to be corrected. well, from the sixteenth to the year of today's accumulated inflation there. somewhere around 50%, but these parameters did not change. of course, it is necessary to change, of course, the necessary revision of the grounds for placing entrepreneurs in

custody and for extending the terms of preliminary investigation, it is no secret that very often these norms are applied where there is no objective need, as a result , even at the stage of investigation, enterprises are forced suspend their activities or close down altogether in this case, in addition to direct losses and loss of market positions of jobs under attack, the reputation of the company and their leaders is drawn to the attention of law enforcement agencies, it is necessary to put an end to this practice and ask. and i ask the government, together with the supreme court , to prepare appropriate amendments to the law. i ask you to carry out this work before october 1 of this year, an additional special instruction given by the security council on analysis of the situation when criminal cases are initiated, but not brought to court, the number of such cases in recent years

has increased significantly, and everyone understands what is behind this. cases are often started without sufficient grounds, or used to put pressure on companies or specific individuals, in the fall we will discuss this topic separately and make additional decisions regarding legislation and the organization of the work of law enforcement agencies. of course, a large role in creating a modern business modern business environment belongs to to regional management teams at the site of the st. petersburg forum, i traditionally note those subjects of the federation that have made significant progress in the national investment climate rating, which is maintained by the agency for strategic initiatives. here we have changes. in the top three, moscow and tatarstan, which continue to lead this year, joined the moscow region for the year. it has risen from eighth place to the

top three in the top three also tula nizhny novgorod tyumen novgorod sakhalin region to st. petersburg and bashkortostan separately. i would like to note the regions with the greatest progress. this is the kurgan region, an increase of 36 positions; the perm and altai territories, an increase of 26 positions for the ingush. tiya to 24 positions in the ivanovo region, which rose by 17 positions. i want to thank and congratulate our colleagues in the regions for this work. and, of course, the area of ​​special attention of the federal government of regional municipal teams should be support for business initiatives of citizens in small towns and individual settlements. we also have such examples of success in remote areas, including, uh, we are talking about the creation of popular software

for the sale of environmentally friendly products, goods of our own production, domestic internet sites throughout the country. and it is important to create new opportunities here to dive into modern forms of trade, including electronic platforms; companies, self-employed citizens, novice entrepreneurs with additional skills and competencies, the corresponding measures are aimed specifically at small towns, rural areas, remote areas and territories, i ask you to include special lines for the national project for the development of small and medium enterprises. today i would like to address our leader, the owner of large companies, our major entrepreneurs and managers. dear

colleagues, friends, true lasting success of dignity and self-respect comes only when you connect your future, the future of your children with your homeland . we maintain relations with many for a long time, and i know the mood of many of our company leaders are owners, and changing life around the contribution to the development of the hometown of the region of the country as a whole is extremely, important thing for self-realization serving people and society. nothing can replace the meaning of life, the whole meaning of

work. recent events have only confirmed what he constantly spoke about earlier at home more reliably. those who did not want to hear hundreds of millions if not billions of dollars have lost this obvious message in the west. this is how it turned out to be, supposedly quiet, a haven for capital. once again, i want to tell my colleagues, including those who are in the hall and those who are not. today here, please do not step on the old rake. our country has a huge potential and the task of requiring the application of forces is countless and the edge is investing here in the creation of new enterprises, jobs in the development of tourism infrastructure. maintain schools universities health and social services, spoil the culture. i know that many people do this. i know, i just want

to emphasize it once again, that's exactly how the fringed frosts, shchukin and repushinsky, sharp-witted and galeevs, understood their mission so highly , but they also get drunk, uh, maktsy. in tretyakov arsanov dadashev gadzhiev many. narrow tatar buryat chechen dagestan yakut ossetian jewish armenian and others and merchant entrepreneurial families that did not offend their direct heirs and forever inscribed their name in history our country. by the way, i would like to emphasize something else. and for the heirs, perhaps, the last capital it is still unknown what is more important

the property they inherited money or the good name and the merits of their ancestors before the country, and this is definitely no one will squander. sorry for the monitor, no one will drink away. and what will remain with future generations from generation to generation will help them to support them through life to make them stronger. than even money that cannot be inherited or property? dear colleagues, the third principle our long-term development is a responsible and balanced macroeconomic policy. in many respects, it was precisely this line that allowed us to withstand unprecedented sanctions pressure, but i repeat. for us, this policy is important not only

for responding to current challenges, but in the long term, we will not repeat the sad experience of our western colleagues, who unleashed an inflationary spiral and unbalanced their finances, our goal is the steady development of the economy for years. forward reduction of the inflationary burden on citizens and business to achieve in the medium and long term the target inflation rate of 4%. here. i almost started with inflation, and now at least to say about it 4%, but we still have such a goal. uh, already instructed the government to prepare a proposal for new budgetary rules. they should ensure the predictability of the budget policy and create conditions for the maximum use of the external economic situation. all this is needed to strengthen the foundation for economic growth and to solve infrastructural technological problems. what is the base to improve the well-being of citizens. yes , some of the world's reserve currencies

are now committing suicide. it is obvious in any case, they have soidal moods on their face. and, of course, to sterilize our money supply with their help. uh, today it is meaningless, but the main principle to spend, based on the understanding of how much he has earned, no one has canceled it. we understand this. the fourth principle of our development is social justice in the growth of the economy and business initiative of industrial opportunities and scientific and technological the potential of the country must be a powerful social embodiment, such development must lead to a reduction in inequality, and not to its aggravation. as it happens in some. uh, hmm other countries. yes, and we honestly, honestly , we are not champions either. by solving these problems. we have many questions here, and the problem remains the reduction of poverty and inequality. this is the demand for domestic products. moreover, throughout the country, and hence the reduction

of gaps in the potential of the regions, the creation of new jobs exactly where they are most needed in general, defining conditions for further economic development. he emphasized the positive dynamics of real incomes of citizens, reducing the level of poverty is the main indicator of the effectiveness of the work of state authorities as a whole, and tangible results here . we provide targeted support to the most vulnerable groups of citizens, pensioners, families with children, as well as those who are in difficult life situations. annually increases increases in pensions and pensions at a rate higher than inflation in the current year. they were raised twice, including from the first of june by an additional 10%. simultaneously with pensions

, the minimum wage was increased by 10% , as well as the subsistence minimum, on which many other social benefits and payments are tied. they, respectively, should also grow, which directly affects the income of about 15 million people in recent years. we have built a holistic support system for families with children in need of help from the state you can get from women from early pregnancy until the child reaches 17 years old, the well-being of people, their prosperity, is the most important factor in demographic development, and here, too. uh, overlapping negative democracies of democratic waves, the situation is extremely difficult. yes, in april , less than 100,000 children were born in russia. this is almost 13% less than in april 2020, i ask the government. constantly monitor the

development of additional measures to support families with children. they should be cardinal and commensurate with the scale the extraordinary demographic challenge that we face in russia's future is a family with two or three or more children. therefore, it should not only be a question of direct financial support. we need to aim to adjust to the needs of families with children, the health care system, education, all areas that determine the quality of life of people to solve such a problem, including a national social initiative, which regional teams and axes will implement together in the fall, we will evaluate. the results of this work will summarize the results of the quality of life rating in regions in order to use the best experiences and practices as widely as possible throughout the country. another fifth principle on which russia builds its economic policy. this is the advanced development of infrastructure. we have already

increased direct budgetary spending on strengthening transport arteries. next year , a large-scale plan for the construction and repair of the backbone network will start, federal and regional authors for at least 5 years. 85% of its length should be brought to the normative state. actively used such a new tool as infrastructure budget loan. they are issued for 15 years. at a rate of 3%. i have already said that the demand for them turned out to be much higher than we originally planned. the regions have many developed promising projects. they cannot be delayed. we are still considering what to do with these support measures . there was still discussion about this yesterday evening, but in any case, now they are only stating that this tool is working, a reliably separate issue is the modernization of housing and communal services. a lot of problems have accumulated here, the industry

chronically underinvested, estimated at four and five tenths of a trillion rubles, more than 40% of networks must be replaced from here, low efficiency and large losses, while annual broadcasts become unusable about three percent of the network, and are replaced by a new one no more than two percent. that is, the problems are getting worse from year to year, i propose to consolidate resources and launch a comprehensive program for the modernization of housing and communal services , to synchronize it with other plans for infrastructure development, as well as major repairs of residential housing stock. the challenge to drastically change the situation consistently reduces the proportion of obsolete networks. just as we are doing, resettling emergency housing and repairing roads in detail, we will discuss housing and communal services and the development of the construction complex with the governors at a meeting of the presidium of the state council next week. in addition, i separately propose to increase

the amount of resources for projects to create a comfortable urban environment in small towns and historical settlements. we are good. this program is working, i propose to allocate another 10 billion rubles for these purposes. every year in the third twenty-fourth year. additional funds we will allocate additional funds for the renewal of cities in the far east, i ask the government, within the framework of infrastructure budget loans and the modernization of housing and communal services, as well as other development programs, to provide special limits for these purposes, of course, the priority for us is the integrated arrangement and development of rural areas people who work for villages feed the country. and as you can see now, a significant part of the world should live in comfortable, decent conditions. i beg governments to allocate additional

funds for the profile program , export duties from the sale of agricultural products can become a financial source here . these are permanent sources. of course, it can fluctuate, but it will be permanent , while i separately propose to expand the programs for the reconstruction and modernization of rural houses of culture, as well as regional municipal theaters and museums, allocating 6 billion rubles for these purposes. in the twenty- third and twenty-fourth year. mm, here's what i just said in the field of culture, i will give you an example just recently. e, during the awarding of medals of the hero of labor, one of the awarded e from yakutia, vladimir fekanovich. mikhailov directly asked for the closed part.
