chiefs, i swear, i swear, i swear, i am worthy of fulfilling my military duty to courageously defend freedom, independence , the constitutional system of russia, the people and the fatherland. thanks to those who are true to these words become a warrior contract service of the russian federation this is the russia 24 studio in vladivostok at the eastern economic forum and we continue to talk about what achievements already exist in this region. and what else remains to be done, perhaps speaking about the economic part. you and i discussed it first when we turned on. what kind of laws were adopted in general? but there is a huge number of tools not only in the social part. you started talking about them about the far eastern hectares, but also of course to attract investment. this is a whole set. this is a priority development area - this is

the free port of vladivostok, this is infrastructure support for certain projects. in addition, there are special zones created and a special administrative regime for russian children on the island. well , of course, forget about this regime later, but the tours were discussed on the basis of savings and the speech was probably first of all at the meeting then vladimir putin about cities with mining industries, but in general there are completely different options for what you can do on the territory. moreover, it is worth noting that in total, if about preferences, then this is an exemption from a large number. uh, taxes, special benefits, all the infrastructure is ready in advance. that is, the company just needs to come there to prove that they do not want to work and get some preferences for work and there is already a number of projects that are being implemented, of course, if the results are freely available, vladivostok, uh, it’s not just vladivostok, it’s 22 municipalities in five different regions. and they also seem to have work when all the companies come , they certainly have their own references there from such, well, i can

say against the backdrop of well-known tori and the free port, more innovations are the special administrative region in russian , look at these figures, it has already ensured the return of assets to russia by five trillion rubles and 62 companies became presidents. and in total, that’s what it’s all about. i say, e already currently, about two thousand 800 investment projects are being implemented. these are completely different formats. but we also have social parts, for example, let's go back, that is. there are also special benefits for those who want to buy housing and live here unconditionally. by the way, regarding the tori. moreover, i have information, for example, how the tornadezhdinskaya company is developing. there is a data center there and it works so successfully, it provides services for small and medium-sized businesses, that a decision was made here, also on its forum expand further, that is, it is recognized successfully and this is the same company. yes there are a lot of uh companies here. now, even if i found the numbers, so what,

there are now more than 200 companies in the far eastern federal district with a profitability of more than billions of rubles. and by the way, bystanders. they have a mortgage, and for them it’s an average of four percent. and here in the far east there are far eastern mortgages, where only two percent per annum is, well , the truly unique conditions of the program work, more than 78,000 seven have already been able to improve their living conditions. not digestible on ours channel and live broadcast of the meeting of the democratic republic, moderator of the plenary session ilya doronov hello everyone, good afternoon, good evening.

good morning, a it's very nice to see more people this year than last year. it seems to me that last year the seating arrangement was wider. now everyone is together. ahh. welcome to the eighth eastern economic forum, i planned to start with one thing, but the news that is coming right now forces me to start with something completely different. you probably just read that the plane flying from sochi to omsk landed in a field. in the novosibirsk region there were 159 people on board. and no one was hurt. only one person. it rose as i read the blood pressure, so let us applaud the pilot. there is another problem, but maybe we can talk about it later, related to airplanes. so this forum and this plenary session. she's not

very ordinary. why because exactly 10 years ago it was announced that the far east and the arctic are a priority for us, and yuri petrovich trutnev became a plenipotentiary just as vladimir vladimirovich addressed the federal assembly in december 10 years ago. i said that the far east is a priority, so i now give the floor to the president of the russian federation and ask him to tell how they used to talk about what was done during these two five-year plans. good afternoon, dear ones. friends, dear mrs. panini, at least i want to greet our guest, i will ask the hall to do the same. our presenter just said and greeted the audience

said, good afternoon. good morning. good evening. here, when you come to the far east, everything really gets confused in your head, it’s not clear whether it’s day, or morning, or evening, but we won’t get confused about one thing. the far east for russia is a strategic priority of the 21st century. from now on. i, uh, i want to welcome the participants and guests of the eighth eastern economic forum, which, according to tradition, brought together the leaders of the company, experts and government officials from our country and from dozens of other countries around the world, so that together discuss promising strategic directions for the development of the russian far east, the arctic and the entire asia-pacific region , but during today’s speech, of course, since this is part

of the general complex of national economics, otherwise i will have to, one way or another, address other regions of the country. we are gathering in order to assess the main trends that determine the dynamics of international business relations, and you and i know very well how the global economy has changed and continues to change in recent years, including due to the fact that some countries, first of all western and of course, with their own hands are destroying the system of financial trade economic relations, which they themselves created in many ways, it is very important that against this background the space for genuine business cooperation between states is expanding in the world, which do not submit to any external pressure, but follow their own national interests, and such states are becoming more and more numerous, and in different regions of the world. uh, they prioritize their

activities of their policies. not some opportunistic current political moments about the promotion of their own projects in the field of transport and energy, industry, finance , in the humanitarian sphere of projects that may or may not bring direct long-term benefit to the people of these countries, in fact, a new model of integration relationships is being born, but no longer according to western patterns for the chosen ones, for the chosen golden billion, and for all of humanity , for the entire functioning and developing multipolar world. it is in this model the creative energy of openness and focus on a specific result is becoming a powerful competitive advantage of the asia-pacific region, a key factor that determines and is sure to continue to determine its global

leadership under the pace of economic growth , i note that last year russia’s trade turnover with the asia-pacific countries increased by 13 and 70% . and in the first half of this year it added another 18.3%, it depends on last year’s 13.7 plus, and in the first half of the year it’s already 18.3 , we expect that our trade with states. and in general, economic relations will continue to develop because russia and the far east are open to strengthening trade cooperation ties and the potential for such cooperation. it is simply impossible to overestimate the far eastern federal district - this is 40% of the territory of the russian federation , almost half of our forests and gold reserves are located here, and more than 70%. fish, diamonds over 30% titanium copper and so on operate

the most important strategic enterprises, seaports and railways in a word the role of far the east for our country, for its future, for the opposition to russia in a multipolar world , is exceptionally great. we understand this well, and well, that’s why i want to repeat what i said in my message to the federal assembly 10 years ago in december 1913. what did i say at the very beginning of the op? the development of the far eastern regions is our absolute priority for the entire twenty-first century. the general responsibility and work of the regional governments of the largest domestic companies, both with state participation and absolutely private ones, for organizing such work over the past years, a serious regulatory framework has been formed , and solid modern approaches to the economic and social development of the far east and the arctic, another

of our strategic priorities, have been laid. what are the results, uh, the moderator asked, and what results, uh, were we able to achieve together. uh, achieved in this region over the past 10 years. first of all, this certainly concerns the economy for the development of industrial complexes and high-tech industries to create new jobs, we proposed in the far east, special tax administrative customs preferences have taken over the construction of infrastructure for connecting networks to industrial sites, and such business support is carried out in the territories of advanced development and the free port of vladivostok, although other territories have already been added to this port as such. since last year, a special preferential regime has been launched on the kuril islands, with even

more preferential conditions than the priority development territories, where the validity period or year itself has expired. uh, the decline itself more taxes and so on. i won't go into details now. just so as not to waste time, thanks to government support for far eastern projects. investment agreements have been signed for more than 7 and 70 three. three and four tenths of a trillion have already been invested in rubles, 125,000 jobs have been created , about 700 new enterprises have started operating, including such landmark projects as a gas processing plant, one of the largest in the world, and a gas chemical complex in the amur region , there is a mineral fertilizer plant and top large-tonnage shipbuilding star. it ’s very close here, and

important projects launched in the agro-industrial sector are being developed between deposits of copper and other minerals: udokan, bonim, malyshka. this is a greenhouse farm in the sakhalin region, primorsky krai, fish processing in kamchatka, magadan , pork production in the amur region, and treatment of production layer in the ivanor region. all of these are also promising areas for supplies to our internal markets. the market and exports in general dynamics and investments on in the far east, i would like to especially note this and emphasize that it is three times faster than the all-russian indicator, if from 2014 to 2022 the growth of investment in fixed capital throughout the country was 13%. then in the far east 39%. this is reflected in production volumes and industrial growth rates. in

the far east, the footprints in the russian far east also exceed the russian average based on the results of recent years, most of our eastern regions of the magadan and amur regions. transbaikalia jewish autonomous region of the amur region chukotka and kamchatka are included in the top twenty subjects of the federation in terms of growth rates of gross regional product, and the magadan region is headed by this third. i will give a few figures that speak for themselves over 10 years, the cargo turnover of the far eastern seaports has increased 1.6 times. here housing is 1.3 times electricity consumption one and two tenths times. annual gold production in the east of the country has increased by one and six tenths of coal by 2.8 times, dear colleagues. you understand

what we are talking about, not about the percentage increase in growth , everything is growing exponentially. here i note that the percentage the average level of exploration of subsoil in the far east across regions is now 35%. you understand only 35% of the studied subsoil. what does this mean? this suggests that there is still every opportunity for multiple growth in the extractive industries, including scarce strategic raw materials that are in demand in the future economy; everything is not only a guarantee of the country’s resource sovereignty, but also the basis for the production of new microelectronics materials and promising energy sources to promote domestic ecological nature, saving technologies and scientific developments to create high-quality jobs , implementation at a new level, naturally

, of the competitive advantages of the far east and the whole of russia, in order to increase the volume of geological exploration, we have launched a frontal strategy. it is called so beautiful, geology revival of a legend. i ask the government to provide a separate section in it devoted to the study of the subsoil of the far eastern region and to begin preparing the same section for siberia , prospects for the far east and the arctic of course, related not only to the development of natural resource deposits, which are certainly in demand, but also in the domestic industry from abroad, i repeat, the powerful raw material base for economic development that we are laying allows us to move forward to increase the depth of resource processing. as experts say, increase added value at domestic enterprises, including and above all, of course, in the far east. this is the main thing.

to do this, it is necessary to constantly improve the conditions for doing business in the macroregion to keep them at a globally competitive level to ensure long-term and cheap financing of investment projects, available to both small and medium-sized businesses and large manufacturing companies in all areas and industries, territories and regions. as you know, we have launched a cluster investment platform at the federal level; this mechanism is intended to finance large-scale systems of designated projects , primarily for the production of materials for components and finished products, in the manufacturing industry industry this year, within the framework of the investment platform of this platform , priority product projects must be financed for the production of priority products in the amount of at least two trillion rubles. i ask the government. additionally, to target this tool specifically at the tasks

of developing the far eastern economy so that more complex industries with modern well-paid jobs appear here, it is necessary to promote projects that require large multi-billion dollar investments, and they in their turn become points of attraction for related sectors for the construction industry and service companies. manufacturers of equipment for small businesses i would also like to emphasize oil and gas, chemistry , metallurgy, mechanical engineering, and other manufacturing sectors, all of these are energy-intensive industries. however, this also needs to be said today in most of the far eastern regions, which, as i already said, are opening new e, production and industrial sites to build housing. still facing energy shortages capacity. and this, of course, is a problem; the scale of the projects that we are implementing in

the far east requires an equally large-scale update of the far eastern energy system. at the same time, there are truly unique conditions for the development of environmentally friendly hydra nuclear and renewable energy and i ask the government, together with our large energy companies, business community. prepare a program for the development of energy capacities in the far east, it should be designed for a period up to 2050 in order to maximize economic expansion opportunities of our far eastern territories i also ask the governments to develop mechanisms for project financing of this strategic program. next, our plans are to connect gas pipelines from velosiberia and sakhalin to khabarovsk-vladivostok, and then to include them in the country’s unified gas supply system, that is, to solve , in fact, i’m not afraid of this word

, a global global task that is historical for our country, to integrate the gas transmission networks of the west into one whole and the east of the russian federation, along with the construction of the siberian power 2 gas pipeline, this will allow us not only to work flexibly on global energy markets, which is in demand today, as we know, but first of all , to significantly expand the gasification program for buryatia, the trans-baikal territory, and other far eastern regions to give industry. here in the far east, additional resources will be provided to provide cities and towns with environmentally friendly fuel. moreover, for gasification. kamchatka will use the capabilities of the terminal. natural gas, which one of our companies has already created in this direction. we are actively developing, including in the arctic, after the successful launch of the yamal lng project, a new large-scale project has been launched for the construction of liquefied natural gas in

the arctic, bearing in mind the first technological line of the arctic lng-2 project. it is already in the mining area and commissioning work is underway. yes, that's what happens. i would like to point out that this line itself is essentially a floating plant for igniting natural gas. it has no analogues in the world. we can safely say that it is based precisely on russian technologies and capacity is produced in the murom center for the construction of large-scale offshore structures by 2030, and the production of st. petersburg in the arctic zone of russia should triple to 604 million tons per year in this regard. fundamental decisions have been made to launch new lng lines on the basis of the murmansk center for work in arctic fields. of course, this will make a huge contribution to the development of our northern regions, strengthening the technological sovereignty of russia

, and it is planned to create a powerful lng production center in the murmansk region itself. that's forced to say this too. although this does not seem to directly relate to the far east, a gas pipeline will be built to supply it, volkhov murmansk galakaminka. i really hope that our company will now, without going into details , agree among themselves, through the mediation of the government, who will build this important infrastructure facility and how. it is very important for the city of murmansk for the villages of the murmansk region and karelia for supporting business initiatives and in general for the economy and the far east, their residents are important transport. the project needs to expand existing logistics routes and open new corridors. moreover, cargo transportation has a special place in this series, of course, occupied by the development of the northern sea route. last year, 34 million tons

of cargo passed through it, and in the coming years, the cargo flow of this global transport corridor will only grow. which requires the rapid construction of a modern icebreaker fleet and the modernization of arctic ports and their infrastructure by 2030. arctic basin, if last year it was 123 million, by the end of the decade should reach the level of 252 million tons, including through the construction of new terminals, expansion of railway approaches, by 2027 it is planned to significantly increase the capacity of the murmansk port from the current fifty-six million to 110 million dollars. we will continue to modernize the baba and trans-siberian railways at a pace. we definitely need to expand here. including

through concession mechanisms to attract private capital for the construction of bridges , tunnels and overpasses, now we are the only ones uh, this issue was discussed with fellow moderators of the relevant sessions. in this regard, i would like to note that, at the initiative of private investors, the pacific railway is being built and a new port is being built on the coast of the sea of ​​okhotsk; this will make it possible to use the resources of yakutia and the north khabarovsk territory to provide direct access to the market. our large apr companies are now building a new seaport in taimyr , modernizing the railway, pangody nadym in yamal, and there are many such examples when business invests. what is called a long-term logistics transport energy project for the construction of railways and highways, sea terminals and airports. i ask the governments of colleagues in the regions to actively operate on this resource, so that both

public and private investments have a synergistic effect for updating the infrastructure of the social sphere of spatial development of the regions and the country as a whole. i have already addressed our entrepreneurs, who from uh, no, many of whom faced certain pressure from individual partners and i want to repeat today that it is safer and better to definitely invest capital in russia both in large-scale ambitious infrastructure projects and in local, but no less important projects for urban tourism development, and we see what is happening with capital, how it is moving nowhere. don’t step on the same rake twice. just recently we opened a section of the expressway from moscow to arzamas by the end of this year, the route will reach kazan and then to

yekaterinburg and tyumen. i want to say today, that we will certainly continue this large-scale project: high-speed highways will pass through siberia, the far east to the pacific ocean, and a single transport corridor will be formed. russia from st. petersburg to vladivostok it will serve as the basis for the development of tourism to connect logistics agricultural and production centers and give impetus to entrepreneurship and the renewal of cities and towns. a separate topic is the development of air communication between the far east and the european part of russia, as well as increasing direct connectivity of the far eastern regions among themselves, so that people do not have to fly to their neighbors through moscow or the siberian airport for this purpose. as you know, we have created a single far eastern airline ; its most important routes are subsidized

by the state in this way. the price of a ticket is becoming more affordable for citizens , additional opportunities are emerging to explore new flight routes, including local ones, i propose to support this absolutely important work, transfer it to a systematic basis and ask the government before the first of march next year to prepare a comprehensive action plan for the development of air transportation within the far eastern region. it should cover the construction of new and modernization of existing airports, improving standards for the operation of small aviation, the supply of domestic airplanes and helicopters and, of course, increasing the accessibility of air travel , primarily by reducing airline costs for leasing aircraft. the exact parameters and targets here have yet to be determined, but i think it will be right to set such a bar,

so that by 2030, passenger traffic on domestic flights in the far east will increase to no less than 4 million people per year. dear colleagues, the most important integral goal of our plans that we are implementing in the economy in the transport sector and infrastructure of the far east is to improve the quality of life of citizens. create comfortable and modern conditions for study and work for recreation and raising children to achieve sustainable population growth in the far eastern regions of russia; for this , a number of mechanisms have been launched, including far eastern hectare program. more than 119,000 people received land plots for running a business, opening production and tourist facilities for building their own home. let me remind you here. eh, the tasks have already been set. uh, this fall we need to prepare a regulatory framework to support

individual housing construction; throughout the country we are talking about the use of accounts and lines. as for uh, as during the construction of multi-apartment buildings, and this will allow for the long-term protection of citizens’ funds, as well as create opportunities for attracting mortgage loan to build your own home. i would like to point out to my colleagues from the government that the mechanisms must work to completion and must be developed before the end of this year, and i will repeat throughout the country, including the far eastern region, i will note that in the far east special conditions have been proposed for mortgages of up to 6 million rubles. for up to twenty years, the rate is 2% using this instrument over 78,000. families who have already purchased or built new housing, i propose to adjust the parameters. far eastern mortgages. increase her attractiveness. in

next time, colleagues also talked about this, namely, to raise the upper limit of the loan to nine million rubles for those who want to purchase their own housing with an area of ​​60. and square meters, and thus families will have more opportunities to choose an apartment on the primary market or for construction own home, i’ll add that initially the far eastern mortgage was designed only for young families, but since last year all teachers and doctors working in the far east can receive such a loan, i suggest taking the next step and again increase the coverage of this program. make a mortgage at 2% available for employees of far eastern enterprises , the defense of the industrial complex emphasized specifically for all employees of the military industrial complex in the far east, regardless of their family age.
