looking at the pressure of the west russian economy shot what helped the business? in turkey, earthquakes again, two underground strikes fell on the province of hottai, there is a destruction of bad weather in the kuban, there they extended a storm warning until wednesday in krasnaya polyana an avalanche descended. details from ours. moscow objects to military activity that threatens the korean peninsula . will russia celebrate the new year according to the lunar calendar, how celebrate this holiday? and let's start with the main political event at exactly noon moscow time. vladimir putin will read the message to the federal assembly. it sets

the vector of the country's development right now in gostiny dvor. final preparations are underway. and there is already working our correspondent anastasia efimovna joins us. nastya greetings, we are waiting for details from you. is everything ready, right? sash is here, everything is really ready. if anyone is leading their very last preparations, then it is probably us. journalists. there are a lot of us here now , everyone strives to be the first to show their audience. as a matter of fact, the same hall where the president's address to the federal assembly will take place today. in gostiny dvor. together, on the one hand, it is quite unusual on the other hand, but not to say that the message is completely unfamiliar, including to journalists and viewers. the direct lines of the president have already been heard here several times, and also big press conferences. we saw it from this territory, i must say that the hall here is very comfortable and very roomy for all the guests who will come here today, and this and uh, representatives of the upper and lower houses of the russian parliament and governors of russian regions and also participants

in a special military operation. by the way, this year's innovations will also become guests, and today's announcement of the president's address to the federal assembly, in general, the conduct of a special military operation. it will obviously be one of the central themes of the epistle. you don't have to be a prophet or an analyst to talk about it. of course, we will talk not only about solving combat missions and the situation in the zone, surf operations. well, of course, they will certainly, the head of state, also talk about the social obligations that the state assumes in connection with the ghost of a special military operation, social obligations concern not only the volunteers themselves and the mobilized, but also their families provided by the head of state. in recent months, he spoke regularly in all his public speeches. and for sure, today something will be repeated, and something quite, perhaps, will sound for the first time. what will be the innovations. in this area, we will find out very soon, in general

, the message this year, i must say, long-awaited, first of all, because in the past 2022 it did not take place. all journalists. he was very much expected, they wondered when it would be, but nevertheless it never happened. so i think what you are now seeing behind my back, our colleague will stop russia-1. alexey petrov is also live. now this, by the way, is very characteristic the atmosphere that takes place in gostiny dvor. literally here. now there is a direct connection on every square meter. so don’t be surprised if suddenly behind my back, you see, colleagues, and so, returning to the topic there was no message in 2020 and the question. why was this question directly addressed to the president by journalists, at the end of december last year, the head of state said that the dynamics. the processes are very high and it is very difficult to sum up any results, based on these words, we can conclude that for the president, messages are always an opportunity not just for analysis, but also for attempts to summarize results, even intermediate ones, and it is obvious that

today this will also be done. how it was done. these are all the messages that sounded in previous years, what else will be meaningful in today's message. well, of course, if the president touches on the situation in the economy, this conclusion can be drawn based, of course, on the fact that economic issues are traditionally in the spotlight when addressing the federal assembly. and of course, in the current situation unprecedented sanctions pressure or sanctions aggression, as they say, but all the recent months it is quite obvious that the economy is riveted, the president spoke about this, including in the middle of last december, as part of a meeting of the strategic development council , and so on, this speech even they called it a kind of mini message to the real inu meeting or an alternative to the message that was not there last year and i propose to just return, but to the speech of the president, which took place at the outpost of the council for strategic development and remember that then the head of state spoke

directly about the situation in the economy against russia deployed unprecedented sanctions aggression. it was aimed at ensuring that in a short time, in fact, the death of our economy through the robbery of our foreign exchange reserves, bring down the national currency. boris provoke devastating inflation. this calculation, as we see, as everyone actually sees, did not materialize, russian entrepreneurs, authorities, worked, collected and professional citizens showed cohesion and responsibility thanks to the joint work of the government of the bank of russia , the constituent entities of the federation managed to stabilize the situation. at the end of the year , a decline in gdp is predicted, indeed a decline. i have already spoken about this publicly, well, by about two and

five tenths of a percent. yes, this is also a decline. but this is not the collapse of 20% that many westerners predicted, but, to be honest, some of our experts at the moment when the collective smell fell upon us with an economic war. let's fix it. half percent decline in gdp the predicted figure announced in mid -december last year, it is obvious that now at the end of february of this year there will be a final number. what the decline in gdp really was like last year , the head of state will probably announce today in his message, which, as i said , will be listened to not only by deputies and senators, but also by the heads of all eighty-nine russian regions. i would like to dwell on this figure 89 in more detail. the four new subjects of the federation, the heads, who will be present here today in gostiny dvor and for whom integration into a single russian

space. this is, of course, the number one challenge. and we are talking about integration, at various levels, these are laws. this is also the social sphere. this is, of course, economics. this, of course, people's safety is an understandable priority today and about it. by the way, the head of state also spoke at the meeting on strategic development. let's look again at december 2022. i want to note one more task that is of paramount importance now, i mean, ensuring the security of the restoration peaceful life in the luhansk donetsk republics , zaporozhye and kherson regions. we will definitely achieve our goal and in the future, on all key issues for people in the economy, the social sphere in the field of management, these regions will become a single whole from the outside, we have already gone this way with crimea and sevastopol and we know what the government needs to do well before the end of the first

quarter of the next year to prepare a special program for the socio-economic development of science of the federation in 2030. all of them must go to the all-russian level in terms of the quality of the infrastructure of social services, in many other parameters of the quality of life , the responsibility for this is attributed to the pros. free ministers well, i'll take the liberty of suggesting that the way integration is going on now, what needs to be done first . today, the head of state will also speak within the framework of the message, however, the forecast , as you know, is a thankless task when you talk about the message, especially considering that the head of state personally works on the text on the eve of the presidential press secretary. dmitry peskov was just telling reporters that there were actually no public events in the president’s work schedule last monday precisely for the reason that the head of state is working on the text of the message, he is in touch with ministers and heads

of departments in order to clarify some figures some data needed for the text. so what the message will actually be in the final version at this moment only the president knows, but very soon of course we will find out and we will all remind you of the beginning at 12, as always, we will tell everything and show it in our broadcast alexander thank you a little later we will get in touch with you again. let me remind you that anastasia yefimova told about the preparations for vladimir putin’s speech. in his message, of course, the president will not bypass economic issues. waiting for the entrepreneur to tell alexander nazarov she joins me. sasha good morning. in general, how is russia today coping with those external challenges that have been with us recently. sash good morning is much better than the ill-wishers expected, including, they themselves admit this. the upcoming

address of vladimir putin to the federal assembly will be the first after the increase in geopolitical tensions over the past year. the west has led many packages of anti-russian sanctions , has practically used up its possibilities in the face of unprecedented pressure , the country's economy has survived and already this year. let not immediately, but there will be growth. 1 quarter expects to be there challenging and consciously went on the formation of a budget deficit, but in order to make e, the most loyal and motivating domestic economic conditions for business, not in order to maintain the solvency of the demand of the population. actually. in the end, of course, this should become the main driver and reduce inflation, including, and these are such triangular macroeconomic stones. as for 2022, according to the first estimate of rosstat, gdp decreased by only 2.1%.

the result turned out to be even better than the calculations of the ministry of economic development and the central bank, especially agriculture, construction, mining , hotel and restaurant business, as well as the information and communication sector performed well. the economy is adjusting to a new situation, the economy is turning to asia to africa and, uh, turning to the diversification of the economy in terms of its technological reorganization, improving the quality of production of engineering products, heavy engineering, light medium engineering, such serious work will require, among other things, the concentration of state efforts and relational and financial. meanwhile, annual inflation continues to slow down . the central bank expects that it may fall below

four percent in the spring. business circles note that in order to consolidate the economic recovery , it is necessary to continue the policy of reducing pressure on business and hopes to hear such a signal in the president's message. the business association of leading businesses in our country has a large list of proposals for the liberalization of the criminal criminal procedural legislation. in the economic realm, they prepared and, we hope that already on behalf of the president, by a well-elaborated proposal, they will already be given a legislative initiative by the president of our country. the relaxation in regulation, as well as the fact that the moratorium for scheduled inspections will be made indefinite , has been in effect since the spring of last year and has already been extended once until the end of 23, and other useful practices are still waiting to be developed. we expect this

year the development of the mechanism of offset contracts, the launch of which was initiated by the president, the essence of this program, to operators whose services the main advantage of the corporation lies in the fact that smes are concluded by the largest customers, long-term offset contracts invest their own or borrowed funds in their existing and new production facilities. in response , the customer undertakes to purchase products or services from him in a certain amount for several years. in addition, businesses need to have access to cheap money this year is scarce and medium-sized enterprises will continue to receive preferential loans for investment purposes at 2.5 and 4% , respectively, the volume of the program has been increased doubled to 100 billion rubles. at the same time, financial sectors also feel confident according to the regulator's forecast. by the end of the year , banks' liquidity surplus may reach almost 3.5 trillion rubles. they have become one of

the main participants in the transformation of the russian economy under sanctions, the introduction of regulations on digital assets and the digital ruble should simplify their work. that from april the process will be launched into the relevant bills in the state duma, we expect, well, by the end of march, all laws will be adopted in order to so that digital technology quickly enters, including in financial calculations. well, thanks to this, by the way, many sanctions decisions will become. an additional burden can be taken on by big business questions about the budget contribution for those who have received overtime. now being worked on. what participation will be required from the company in strengthening the russian economy is not expected to be heard in the president's message.
