we live in a great country. and this is true every time after the cruel upheavals of the death of thousands of people, the state gathered again into a single rigid system.

let's continue the conversation with deputy chairman of the federation council konstantin kosachev konstantinovich you have already mentioned attempts to interfere with the american side. during the course of the investigation, what was the nature of these attempts to interfere and now following the results, when the conclusions of the investigation have been published, and should we expect any reaction to these conclusions from the american side? well, the first is within, the mandate we have. we invited a number of officials, uh from the united

states of america, but also ms. nuland, deputy secretary of state, who openly admitted at congressional hearings that these biolabs exist on the territory of ukraine, to uh interact with our commission. and of course we would like this thought of ms. , well, the development to concretize. not she, nor other official representatives of washington, whom we addressed with proposals, but to establish a dialogue. uh, it's unreacted at didn't react you know in uh, from their point of view. eh, such an offensive form is already addressed to us that we will talk everything with you. what are you doing? it's pure water propaganda leave look better what you do. we do nothing of the kind outside the territory of the russian federation, let alone outside our national borders. we scrupulously observe everything that is prescribed and what is prohibited by the biological weapons convention. so the first is the categorical refusal of us officials who have the relevant information

share this information with the parliamentary inquiry committee. well, the second at each stage, when any significant results appeared in our investigation. and we have been working openly and publicly throughout the year. we went out with this information to the media. of course, they reported to the chambers of the federal assembly at every stage. we certainly appeared some this time already an official reaction from the same state department. here. department of state on the activities of our parliamentary commission appeared 3 weeks before the completion of our work. they did not see with their eyes how our work would be completed. we are sure that they did not have such an opportunity, but nevertheless they hastened to immediately say that all this is nonsense. all this is sucked from the finger. and what is there to comment on? i will repeat this again. uh, kremlin propaganda like this. they have already begun to form public opinion both in the united states of america and in the satellite countries in order to

ignore the significance of the resonance from the information that we have collected , analyzed, summarized and transferred to the category conclusions and suggestions. here's what we do. of course, we won’t be able to hide under what dryly over the past year. we have twice appealed to the parliaments and peoples of the world on various aspects of our work and on improving the arms convention and on how the relevant cooperation between these countries and the americans looks like, so that parliamentarians take a closer look at this topic. we received a lot of feedback. feedback is working, the resonance is obvious and, of course, the final report of our commission will also be sent to to the widest possible number of recipients abroad, because the threats posed by the us biological weapons program. they are not only addressed to russia. they are global; they threaten any country where these laboratories are located; they threaten neighboring countries. they threaten humanity konstantin ivasievich. thank you

and, of course, the impulse, uh, to our parliamentary interaction. like your friends, like your closest allies. of course, we closely followed the situation in kazakhstan and, of course, cause, but with great respect. uh, those reforms that he carried out mr. tokaev, the president of kazakhstan , political and economic reforms, as it was carried out professionally democratically calmly in dialogue with the population and obvious evidence. such support by the peoples of kazakhstan of the president's course is, of course, the results of the recent elections. uh, the models of our country are allies and strategic partners, and cooperation between kazakhstan and russia is based on strong ties. friendship even neighborhood centuries-old historical ties respect

independence sovereignty and territorial integrity of our state. one of the activities of the federation council is the protection of the rights of citizens and the protection of their health. the issue of consumption, russia healthy and safe products and dietary supplements has been constantly raised at the relevant committee since january 2021, online trade in dietary supplements is allowed, while the legislative framework that should fully regulate the circulation of dietary supplements has not yet been formed. what is being done in order to eliminate legislative gaps in this area, we will discuss in detail, senator vladimir kruga tell us what is the current situation on the market and what are biologically active additives in general. and if you look at them , from the point of view of the law, he knows biologically active additives. this is a very specific product for most people. usually citizens. it is very much like medicine. although it is written on each package that it is not a medicine, there are a lot of

similarities, firstly, the packaging. these are capsules, as a rule, or tablets very close to drugs in each e, in each package there is instruction as accept. very medicines , at least vitamins, yes, and very often prescribed by a doctor, and very often the instructions say that they help with various diseases. that is, for the majority of citizens. this is something very close to drugs at the same time in terms of legislation. this applies to food . well, something, maybe not quite, there are sour cream eggs. yes, but nonetheless. eh, that 's close, we have something in recent years, but there is, in fact, no national legislation. hey, these are the relationships. biologically active additives, what do i mean, and from 2003 to 2021

, the pin itself acted specifically. well, everyone knows what sanpin is, these are orderlies, norms and rules , in fact, this is a guide that is close to the law, which is regulated. he regulated the turnover of the production of completely substance registration and so on and so forth. all stages of the production of the sale of e, dietary supplements, but e for 2 years, and the so-called technical regulations of the customs union. eh, that is there it's all sunk in. and we have, uh, this very pin is canceled. that is, in fact , there is no control. it exists because this regulation also has sections devoted to dietary supplements, but there are also big inconveniences, firstly.

this is a very voluminous document, even several documents where a is regulated, in general, all food products, if this sanpin was written specifically for dietary supplements, then this is the technical regulation, and it is written for all products, highlight something about it here badov maybe but it is difficult and very difficult to make any necessary changes there. e of such a plan of change than but now , hmm, why now this issue has become especially relevant in relation to dietary supplements, because, well, firstly, there was a pandemic, so many people were concerned about their health , prevention and demand. uh hmm acquiring the use of dietary supplements, the age of people who use supplements has greatly increased and the number of supplements has increased greatly since one side on the other side. it became possible to allow trade in biologically

active additives via the internet. and this has made a big difference in general. the market for biologically active additives, firstly, uh, has significantly increased the number of counterfeit products when trading via the internet. well , that is fakes in other words fakes. uh, then oh, their number increased dramatically, moreover, uh, and here are these violations. well, up to a quarter, and of all dietary supplements, do not have state registration. this is a very large amount if used before through pharmacies. it was all for sale and there was still control. well, more understandable, in any case, to the manufacturer and er, and how to say the consumer, when he bought these biologically active additives, he was more or less sure that they were giving him exactly what is sold in a pharmacy. yes

, in connection with the hmm with the possibility of selling via the internet. she must be comfortable. this is a pandemic. oh, we have been pushed, but it is necessary to tighten, respectively, and control and e state state channel. i know that there was an experiment on the labeling of dietary supplements, it ended like this, in february something changed or something, but there is a positive experience of labeling drugs. it has already been introduced with us, there were a lot of difficulties. you remember, we discussed this topic many times on the federation website. well, nevertheless, now we can already say for sure that this is a positive experience, despite the costs, despite the technical implementation difficulties, including all the same . this system is now working and it indeed hmm prevents in many

cases the occurrence of counterfeiting the same in relation. uh, biologically active additives. now here's been an experiment level said for a little over a year now. and i participated there, it was such a large-scale project , more than, well, almost 5,000, and the participants of the manufacturers and, uh, the experience of analyzing it now , we just reported the result to the federation council at the event. uh, and uh, the representative of the ministry of industry and trade , the deputy minister said that yes, this system will be introduced in our country and uh, i i am absolutely sure that this will significantly reduce the number of counterfeit goods. it is also very important that, from my point of view, it is necessary to make the possibility of controlling bodies. and this is our rospotrebnadzor, and out of court, to close

and block e sites that advertise biologically active additives in violation of the law, and there were a lot of such experiences. with regard to medicines, he also showed. uh, a significant effect, that is , these two directions are marked on one side and on the other side. uh, blocking, uh out-of-court sites that advertise e, dietary supplements that have not been registered. well, here was an example, uh, remember recently one of the deputies. e hmm and after taking a fly agaric dietary supplement. i felt a little bad, but uh, this supplement. it turns out that she was not registered, as it turned out later during the check, that is, there are such facts, unfortunately, and these measures, they will allow a man, yes, it turns out. well, you know, i've

looked. and it turns out there are special ones. uh, how to say experts in quotation marks who treat these. with this, uh, dietary supplements for all diseases to read. from what they treat there is no such disease that is not attracted by fly agaric. and it's all advertising, it's going, how to say zombification. just e people and this needs to be stopped. well, there are , after all, good dietary supplements that provide the human body with essential minerals. there , again, the same ones, but vitamins. well, like, uh, if some recipe, how to distinguish them here from fake uh, real from fake, firstly, specialists are needed, they need to be trained, and there are such specialists , unfortunately, now uh, even to get uh

training in the specialty of nutraceuticals, but you don’t need a medical one, you need to get a medical education . that is, these are all food products, as you know, there is such a subtle, but nuance, but such specialists are needed. it's part of a healthy diet, and and, uh, it really is. well, it's silly to say that dietary supplements are not needed, or what? tomorrow no one will use them. of course, they need to be used successfully, but, uh, you really need to understand the first thing . does such an additive have state registration ? but the new union because it is possible to register in some country, and there it is not the state registration of the state that transfers these functions to some private companies and not always. uh, here, this registration certificate

really testifies to the quality, and biologically active additives, but basically all the same. uh, here is the fact of state registration, he says yes. this additive, well, the quality is more or less. it does not contain there synthetic various, but the substances of the dose, there e corresponds to what is indicated in the instructions, and so on and so forth. eh, it's better. i would advise you to purchase such supplements in pharmacies not via the internet. although not all supplements are available in the pharmacy and you have to buy some certain types, but buy via the internet yes, there are some restrictions, of course, but here, uh, you need to hope that these are the measures that i said and the labeling and uh

. he will still comply, now let's talk. on the results of a large trip of senators to karachay-cherkessia, all issues that were in the focus of attention on the control of legislators, for some there is already a concrete decision on the state of the economy of the region today . we also talked to senator akhmat, sagagavym akhmad anzorovich, in the sphere of housing and communal services construction. please tell us more about the delegation's visit to the republic, what topics were key on the agenda, what results the delegation's visit program achieved, this federation in short, circassia turned out to be very busy senators. we visited the enterprises of the agro-industrial complex of the hospital school, dads got acquainted with the possibility of our all seasons, they appreciated how work is going on at capital construction sites, while in detail plunged into the problems of the region, it is important that

it was possible to discuss specific mechanisms for resolving key issues and for each of them a clear trajectory of work was outlined. went under the leadership of the first deputy chairman of the federation council andrey vladimirovich yatskin with the participation of the chairman of the four committees of the federation council , the leadership of the republic of the federal ministry of departments, the meeting was dynamic and fruitful and led to the adoption of specific decisions in the field of healthcare, they spoke about the need construction of new hospitals for the graphy , the key issue was state support for the protection of plants from the city of bitiya. this is a very sensitive topic of intense hail. in the republic it falls up to 15 times per season, which, of course, negatively affects the yield

. pension in order to agricultural producers could sell their products all year round. the need to build such infrastructure in the central focus was given to the tourism industry tourism development - this is a powerful incentive for infrastructure development. these are jobs. this is to improve the quality of recreation for guests of the republic and the quality of life of local residents. now relevant is the implementation of the recently adopted law aimed at developing the recreation industry in specially protected natural areas for the resort. dombai is planned to be developed of the master plan for its development with new cable cars, carnival tracks , cross-country skiing tracks and recreation areas, another master clan will be created for sofiyskaya polyana. and, of course, high-quality training of specialists is important. in the field of tourism. the modernization of the communal infrastructure of the region
