now personnel from the government coordination center. good afternoon, dear colleagues, the president has instructed to update the national strategy for the development of artificial intelligence until 2030 and we need to make changes that include, among other things, the implementation of a set of measures aimed at the widespread introduction of technologies in sectors of the economy and social sphere, and of course in the public administration system , we gave

these questions in detail at a meeting with the head of state in july: products based on artificial intelligence help to increase the efficiency of entire sectors and bring them to a qualitatively new level. they are widely used for data analysis for forecasting, process optimization, automation in production, for launching convenient useful services for citizens and entrepreneurs. and of course, it is very important for us that they are created here in russia, this is necessary to ensure independence from foreign suppliers, strengthen the security of our country, and of course, this will open up additional opportunities for both people and businesses. today there is a struggle between global players for primacy in the technological race, but often unfair competition methods are used, russia is trying to block access to advanced developments, but our... manufacturers, which is very important,

were able to adapt to this situation and the volume of the artificial intelligence market in the past year reached almost 650 billion rubles, an increase of approximately 18%. about a thousand russian organizations are involved in this area, which are included in the corresponding register, but of innovative companies. unlike many other countries, we produce world-class products, for example, we presented our neural networks... yandex, such models were launched by sber, the rate of implementation of artificial intelligence in economic sectors reaches about 20%. the leaders are the financial sector, where 95% of enterprises use such technologies; the potential is, of course , much higher; to fully unlock it , we need to more actively involve the business community; of course, we will continue to provide appropriate government assistance. total for the development of artificial intelligence.

5 billion 200 million rubles are allocated from federal funds for the next year. the next very important direction is the development of scientific institutions and those involved in such technologies. today there are more than sixty of them in the country; the year before last we selected six leading centers, and over 5 billion rubles were allocated for their research. also this year it will be necessary to determine how six more organizations that will receive grants from the state will be able to implement popular projects for priority sectors of the economy. it is necessary to create conditions not only for the generation of promising solutions, but also, which is very important, for their testing and further entry into the market, so that ideas do not remain on paper, but are brought to life and bring tangible benefits. in russia, the regulatory and ethical regulation of the artificial intelligence market is one of

the most progressive in the world. we have launched eight experimental legal regimes, two in the field of medicine, another six in the field of highly automated vehicles and unmanned aerial vehicles. this allows you to test new technologies in practice, see how applicable they are and, based on the results, form an effective legislative framework. the widespread spread of innovation always brings with it. challenges, among them, are issues related to the storage of personal data with their protection, issues of information security in general, protection of intellectual property, as well as the impact on the lives of citizens, all this must be taken into account in our work, and many are still quite are wary of new technologies, including those based on artificial intelligence, especially when it comes to such sensitive areas from the point of view of morality and morality - education,

healthcare, social sphere, so you need to approach the implementation of smart solutions with extreme caution and extreme care . on the opinion of citizens, receive feedback, which our president always talks about, and use only proven developments that have proven their safety and relevance, which will bring tangible benefits, well, show the benefits of their use. of course, it is also necessary to calculate all possible risks and consequences so that they do not affect a person; this is the only way that society will have confidence in this kind of innovation. our country has a code in the field of artificial intelligence; about 270 organizations have joined it, including about 20 foreign organizations. the document establishes that the main priority for the development of such technologies is to protect

the interests and rights of people, but also of everyone an individual person. i believe that this is what all participants in the company, this important organization, should be guided by. for the country of industry. dear colleagues, dear friends. as i already said, we have to prepare an updated national strategy in this area. its implementation in the future should ensure the growth of computing power, launch venture financing at the mid -stage of project implementation, and, if possible, remove regulatory barriers and strengthen international cooperation. now it’s important to decide on basic support scenarios artificial intelligence in russia. which form the basis of the updated strategy, well, in general, consider the entire possible range of measures necessary to achieve the tasks set by the presidents in this area. mikhail mishustin held a strategic session on the development of artificial intelligence. the ukrainian crisis became one of the key topics

of the high-level week at the 78th session of the general assembly, whether the past discussion will help resolve the conflict or vice versa. may somehow make things worse, about this and more, let’s talk right now with the first deputy, chairman of the federation council committee on defense security vladimir chezhov, he is in direct contact with us, vladimir alekseevich, we welcome you, good afternoon, there are a lot of events that happened there, which the media paid attention to and paid attention, probably not entirely the way the organizers would like to draw attention to this, i mean the half-empty halls during zelsky’s speech, and the completely empty hall during scholz’s speech, and so on, but what are your... general impressions from the high-level week of the general assembly session? well, if you define, as the organizers, the authorities of the country on whose territory, due to historical

reasons, the headquarters of the united nations organization ended up, then you are certainly right. as for the impression, this session. i believe that it has confirmed what the russian side has said repeatedly over the past year, that , firstly, there is no talk of any isolation of russia, that gradually, awareness of the nature of the conflict that continues... . on territory of ukraine, this awareness is coming to many countries, their leadership, so of course, not to everyone, in general, in general, but that, uh, the formation of a new world

order, based not on those rules that they like to talk about without naming their contents. without listing them, our former western partners, but a new world order based in reality on the un charter , on the principles of international law, on respect for sovereignty and sovereign equality, and of all states on our planet, this is this process, it continues, of course, and it coming - develops in struggle, in struggle, with those who are not, but ready, who do not want to give up their dominant position, but the forces to

maintain this dominant position are gradually being cut off, in other words, in short, through thorns to the stars, right now there are media developing in different different ways, there are probably several ways of conveying information to different groups of the population, that’s a certain part, but young people, they exchange information with memes, but on the internet, there mostly, well, to laugh, of course, well naturally, there were a lot of memes, and it was connected with the un assembly, in particular with zelsky’s speech, but with the behavior of mr. zelsky in relation to countries that, well, in principle, are creditors of ukraine, meaning that many people pay attention to how aggressively he behaves with them, this is the degree of emotional aggression, or something, yes, it is already starting to go off scale, yes, the further, the more,

here, how would you comment on this, yes, that's because in the western press too publications are no longer appearing in the form of memes, but in the form of such well-serious enough analytics , that well, he is behaving incorrectly, to put it mildly, today mr. john kirby said that he had hinted, maybe this is really such a hint, ukraine was , yes, that in general we are running out of money, because another week is over, and then, i don’t know, well, you know, zelensky, uh, is a professional, in his own industry, in his genre , well, he was a stand-up comedian, but by and large he remained the same, and he got used to the fact that every the appearance on... the international arena, including on such platforms as the un general assembly, causes a certain kind

of reaction, and the fact that this time there was no such reaction, this apparently caused his great displeasure, irritation and even aggressiveness, especially since those who were generally considered to have added fuel to the fire, who not only he, but also... ukraine, i mean the polish leadership, so it’s quite natural, as they say, the scenery has changed, and the actor -he remained in the same role, well, if during zelsky’s performance there, you could see someone, here again , if you go back to the memes, then, you remember, this is a compilation, and a video compilation that was later made, yes, that zelsky is listening to zelsky. otherwise, with mr. scholz, even such a compilation would not have been possible, well, because the hall there

was completely empty, and what kind of disrespect is this for the chancellor of such a respected country? well, apparently, this is a reflection of the real role that germany now plays in world affairs, this is incomparable with the role that this country played back... 10 there 20 years ago, so against this background , berlin’s claims to permanent membership in the un security council look simply ridiculous, you have already mentioned the discord that has now occurred between the leaders of ukraine and poland, who were just recently embracing, and now there is also such a side , which the kiev leadership also doesn’t really

like, is hungary, the prime minister, who said that his country will not support ukraine’s position at any international forum until kiev returns the rights to the transcarpathian hungarians, here’s your look at how this could turn out in practice, and whether it could happen in the near future , since we have poland, which has its own demands on ukraine, hungary, and other countries probably also have something in their claims bag, well, probably , the simplest thing that the kiev regime could do is, as they say, to give back some rights to the transcarpathian hungarians, but it will be like dominoes, because poland has its own claims, plus there are those residents of western ukraine who associate themselves with others

countries, with romania, with slovakia, in slovakia, by the way, elections are just around the corner, literally on the 30th, yes, in the united states, there are also early elections, in general now somehow the situation is not in favor, at least in the opinion of ukraine, the money she is counting on, but if i go back to antonia, the secretary general, who said that after all, the security council, if i’m correct now. does not reflect modern realities, does this mean that the security council is really waiting for some kind of reform, some changes, many would probably agree with him, you know, indeed , we can agree with this thesis, mr. , the security council probably does not fully

reflect the world that has developed at the moment. well - you have a great idea, uh, how the un was formed, and how in 1945 the un bodies were created, including the security council, here i am saying, of course, that over the past decades, uh, in general, there have been certain changes , including as part of the security council, because initially it consisted of 11 members, five permanent and six non-permanent, then in 1965, that is, 20 years later, the composition was increased to 15, that is, the number of non-permanent members, from six to 10, but this was also quite a long time ago, with

since then, of course, the world has not stood still, i would like that certain political changes have occurred over these past, over the past period, including in the composition of the security council, because initially, the chair with the inscription china was occupied not by the people's republic of china, but by those who is now governs: a small island called taiwan. and again in the same year 65, the rights of the people's republic of china were finally recognized and it took its place in the un. this concerns history, but the reform of the un, it does not come down only to determining

the numerical composition or methods of forming one body of the security council, despite the fact that this is, of course, the most important body, but there are a number of other elements of reform , but uh, the main, uh, the main problem with the issue of un reform is that according to charter, ah, such decisions must be based on the corresponding majority , and the states, ah, members of the organization, and changes to the charter are generally only possible if there is an appropriate procedure, but in any case, any decision requires unanimity, consensus of the current permanent members of the security council. therefore, our country’s position has always been that a broad consensus, so to speak, is needed, it

can hardly be one hundred percent, any decision must be based on the support of a confident majority of un member countries. bye that there are different approaches to this issue, discussions continue and will continue, it is important that they proceed constructively, not, so to speak, without moving into the plane of mutual claims and faults. yes, on an emotional level, because we periodically hear statements that it is necessary to somehow limit the influence of the russian federation on the united nations, it turns out that we are interfering with everyone there, what they have already come up with, well , we are interfering, yes, that’s it here’s the news that came the day before, in my opinion, yes, this is already relevant

situation in ukraine, today it was commented on by a colleague from the ministry of defense. remembering that there was already a counter-offensive in the spring, a counter-offensive in the summer, and now in the fall, and again drawing attention to the fact that the united states , through its actions, is pushing the ukrainian leadership to continue these crazy assaults that are going on, very a lot of people are dying, another piece of news came about the american abrams tanks that finally reached ukraine, so we talked to those directly involved. they are in places, they say, well, now the weather is still good, this allows for the movement of equipment, especially heavy ones, but soon it will be, well, it’s already autumn in principle, soon it will completely come into its own and it will be completely different. the situation in terms of not passing, not getting through, it happens, you know, i don’t pretend to know, so to speak, the design details of the abrams tank,

but i know the main parameters, it weighs more than 70 tons, that’s at least 10 tone is greater than our tanks and even this european one leopard. and moreover, the american tank, abrams, is designed to move either along european highways or through the middle eastern desert, but it is clearly not intended to move in wooded, swampy areas, which is what the ukrainian... theater of military operations is now. , by the way, this also applies to both the british challenger and the german leopard, so to say that

there are abrams, and there are all of them, as i understand it, means supplying three dozen, that is , one battalion, that this will change the course of the whole companies, but this is simply not serious, let’s see how they burn, how successfully, in the fields of ukraine. yes, that’s how, this morning we talked just with the adviser to the head of the donetsk people’s republic, khebkovsky, he told us, literally the same thing, that we are all well aware of how much money is paid to military personnel for, for example, knocking out the same leopard or the same british, the same american abrams, well, that’s what he said, the hunt for these tanks is also open, vladimir alekseevich, now everyone’s attention

countries, probably not only in our region, which is still close to armenia and azerbaijan, but also more distant states, are focused on how events are developing in nagorno -karabakh, how would you characterize the latest events that took place there and what's next for this situation, in your opinion? well, what happened in the last period , in general, today, it looks like the completion - so to speak, of a stage, the next stage of the implementation of the strategic plan of azerbaijan, which, willingly or unwillingly, i admit that the policy of the current

leadership of armenia contributed, not voluntarily, but very effectively. i mean the well-known decision made, announced , by prime minister pashinyan in prague last year, not anywhere, not in moscow, not in yerevan, in prague. in the presence of not the russian, not russian mediators or anyone else, but for some reason the president of france and the chairman of the european council michel, and the meaning of this decision was, but the final refusal of armenia from nagorno-karabakh, and which quite fit into the plans of baku, there didn't hide

this is how to put it, their most important tasks, now the main thing, which by the way, the participants of that prague meeting completely forgot, the main thing now is that this process of reintegration of nagorno-karabakh into azerbaijan , in accordance with the decisions taken back in almaat in 1991, so that it happens peacefully way, with full respect for the rights to ensure the security of the armenian population of nagorno-karabakh, this is an important point, and in this, i believe, the important will be manifested, i would say without false modesty, the irreplaceable role of the russian peacekeeping contingent, which remains there for now, and which, i must say, is manifesting itself. in the best possible

way. yes, at the same time, there are, of course, very serious forces that do not need any settlement, in this situation, which are exerting their influence, we all understand what these forces are, of course, which are also visible in yet another conflict , which is also now unfolding these days, i mean the aggravation between belgrade and pristina again, is bringing its troops to the border, is there now, in your opinion, a basis for a serious concern in your opinion, because the balkans, another powder keg, on the continent, as long as this phenomenon of kosovo exists, with its pseudo-independence, there will always be grounds for serious concern.

but i can say that the activities of the kosovo regime led by albin kurti, and of course it is a factor provoking tension, and a factor that, so to speak, acts quite consciously, and is purposefully aimed at maintaining the level of tension in this region, well, i think spent many years studying the balkans, in including the kosovo problem, but i can say that what we see today is

not the first and i’m afraid not the last. such an aggravation, but here is an important point: how belgrade will react to this matter, how the serbs as a people will react to this, how much they have the fortitude to defend their interests in this conflict. a situation that , one way or another, everything is so, will periodically , we hope, without any aggravations, emerge in the information space, we will also, for our part, monitor how it is there the situation is developing. vladimir alekseevich, thank you very much for being with us; i will remind you that the first deputy chairman of the federation council committee on security defense, vladimir chezhov, is on direct communication.
