[000:00:00;00] in general, the territories for the development of territories in the proper way in the strategy that kaliningrad itself sets for itself, gazprom is quite dynamically involving the kaliningrad region, there are current issues that we directly concern each region, but this region is already entering a stage when we already know, we are finalizing some nuances, some little things, we are already finishing and paying attention to both gazprom, the ministry of energy, and accordingly... the regional authorities, so that this is in the consensus for the development of this region, you know, such a thing has already begun completion of such things, the level of gasification, i repeat, in the kaliningrad region is 84%, but let’s say the ministry of energy says that this possible level of gasification is already higher, there up to 87%, so percentages don’t play such a role here, the main thing is that we understand

the prospects for further development , khabarovsk territory, how are things going? we are in september, literally a month has not passed since we were in the khabarovsk territory, the questions are quite strategic planning, we are clearly faced with a situation where investors want to know what volume of gas, what volume will there be energy supplies in the region? we see perfectly well that. from the regions that, let’s say, we discussed today, has plans for the widespread involvement of industrial enterprises, in this case, the contract that currently exists is ending, there in a year it will end, we understand that we must now plan supplies for consumption for khabarovsk territory in such a way that it has the prospect of increasing, and i will repeat once again that for us the percentage of gasification of

a particular region is no longer worth it, we must... already a consistent schedule so that regional authorities have the prospect of using both energy resources and other resources that they could offer to their investors and future residents for further use, that’s the question now , and the level of gasification is growing in accordance with the instructions quite dynamically, we will see that next year there will be 35 regions with 100% gasification. but the question is about increasing gas consumption in the russian federation. this is what we look at more broadly gasification of the murmansk region will completely reboot the region’s economy and will allow it to independently process the extracted raw materials. the head of the region, andrei chibis, stated this in the federation council. the governor also spoke about the prospects for the socio-economic development of the region. the growth of our domestic regional product per capita amounted to 2 seconds over 4

years. economic growth and these investments, they should certainly give in the future, but in the present, a corresponding return, yes, this is a larger volume of tax revenues in the future, it is fundamentally important that the salary of our people is changing, at the moment, based on the results of six months of this year, it amounted to 95,000 rubles. the days of the murmansk region were held in the upper house, during which committee meetings were held; at meetings of the region's leadership, together with senators , problematic issues were raised and jointly developed ways to solve them. as a result , a resolution was adopted aimed at ensuring the interests of residents of the region. according to mandria chibis, over the past four years the mormandy region has invested in the development economy about 900 billion rubles of investment. this allowed the creation of more than 5,000 new jobs. one of the largest industrial facilities currently being discussed in the region will be its shipbuilding cluster. its construction could begin as early as next year. we have the opportunity to discuss the implementation of the project

and talk about industrial development with senator konstantin debt. konstantin konstantin, hello, please tell us about the scale of the project, how would you characterize the development in general ? production facilities in the murmansk region? murmansk is the gateway to the arctic, this was once again confirmed during all discussions in the federation council and, of course, the prospects for the development of the russian arctic largely depend on economic development, on the industrial development of this region. very serious projects are already being implemented, i’ll start with the fact that there will be gas in the murmon region, and this is very important, thanks to our president, his instructions, active work is now underway and it is planned that in the twenty- seventh year this gas pipeline will be introduced into operation, what does this mean, this means - not only cheaper and more environmentally friendly heating of houses, since now they are mainly

heated... with fuel oil, this also means a powerful incentive for economic development, this is an expansion of production, these are new production facilities, one of the most powerful projects, just related to the construction of the gas pipeline, and essentially this company norvotek built a center for the construction of round-tank offshore structures, the so-called liquefied natural gas plant, vladimirovich putin gave the command to send the first platform to yamal, by the way, it has already started working, there are still several platforms ahead that will work both in yamal and in the morman region, there is a very serious total capacity there, and these are jobs, this, of course, is additional revenue to the budget, the budget of the region , according to estimates, only in this gas sector, there

will be about 400 billion rubles of attracted investments, these are actually very serious indicators, the murmansk region is one of the key points on the map of our country, with from the point of view of the extraction of rare, useful... i will say only one thing, this is lithium, it is clear that lithium is extremely important for the economy, especially modern industry, the development of a very large deposit has now begun, the kolmozerskoye deposit in the murmansk region, this is 18% of nickel reserves, one one deposit, of all the reserves in our country, and of course, this will be very, again additional, very serious... without any doubt, these megaprojects that you talked about, they contribute to the development of the economy and the development of industry,

and this is only a small part of the megaprojects planned, or is it planned to continue to operate in the same way, these projects, they are already being implemented, well, they will be, some of them will be scaled up, but as i already said, with the arrival of gas this will create... new conditions, fundamentally new conditions for development, let me emphasize the manufacturing industry , in our country now the emphasis is on the rapid development of the economy of high value-added processes, the so-called, yes, that is, this is the processing and manufacturing industry, that is, we let's get away, i'm sure, from the situation where now companies in, say, the murmansk region extract raw materials, then export them abroad for processing in other regions; there are a number of projects in the pipeline in the field of mining, processing of mineral resources, in industry one of such areas is not i can’t say enough about this, this is ship repair, now the task is to use as much as possible

, reconstruct, use domestic shipyards and domestic docks, ship repair for servicing our ships, in the murmansk region there are traditionally very serious capacities ship repair, but many factories, they are in such a state... let's face it, the condition is not very good, the fixed assets are worn out, the equipment is worn out, and of course, the task is to update all this ship repair infrastructure, but here in the federation council we have ship repair the topic is under control, uh, in accordance with the instructions of valentin ivanovna matvienko, and this topic was very clearly reflected in the decisions that we made following the results of the days of the murmanov region, we will also work, and this, by the way, is... and technology , this and development, fleet, fishing, in particular and not only, and this, of course, jobs. the mormon region is a strategically important region for all of russia, noted valentina matvienko. according to her, the subject continues

to actively develop in a number of areas. for example, the ship repair industry works, among other things, to ensure the country's defense capability. much work has also been done in the areas of health, education and tourism. but there are also problems. which worries residents of the region, today the key remains the shortage personnel in the healthcare sector, the problem of overcrowding in schools is being gradually resolved, but there is still a shortage of teachers; organizing work in the housing and communal services sector and transport infrastructure also requires a more professional approach. a good story that the murmansk region has finally begun to implement, at the request of residents, is the installation of warm stops for transport. a good idea, a beautiful one, if i'm not mistaken, everyone. they cost 4 million, they don’t work, some of them are not heated, and they ruined such a good story by not

they finished it, they didn’t finish it, they didn’t do it well, they announced that another 50 new stops like this would appear, that’s right, you are a northern territory, people should wait for transport in comfortable conditions, but now make sure that they are all working, so that there really is warm. to ignore the complaints of citizens, no leader at any level has the right, the importance of the arctic regions for russia is difficult to overestimate both economically and in addition, the arctic zone is the largest special economic zone in the world, where investors enjoy special tax and administrative regulation regimes. let's talk more about this with senator tatyana sakharova. tatyana anatolyevna, how do residents of the special economic zone in the arctic feel today? how effective was this regime? the same question applies to the priority development territory of the capital of the arctic, which occupies part of your region. when we talk about the arctic zone, murmansk is practically the center

of the arctic, and naturally, today we are the flagship for economic development, of course, in terms of the development of topics related to the arctic resident, if we talk about investments, over 4 years the murmansk region ranks second in the northwestern federal district in terms of growth of investments in fixed capital investments, over 4 years it grew by almost 116%, over 4 years in investors have already invested 900 billion rubles in the mormon region. also, the murmansk region today is the leader in terms of residents. 207 residents are currently successfully implementing their projects. in the future, it is expected to increase to 11,000 jobs and raising 385 billion rubles.

just recently, an enterprise for processing russian salmon was opened in the murmansk region, today this topic is quite important , it is central, mormonsk is the second region in the russian federation for the development of aquaculture, just this resident, who has already invested more than a billion rubles in murmansk region, and most importantly, today our residents are ready to make their investments in the development of the murmansk region, why because they feel this tax support, they feel the preferences that they see, they see the return on the money invested. in the murmansk region, a theme related to the territory of advanced development, the capital of the arctic, is being implemented. eight such residents, eight enterprises are operating quite successfully today, and of course, large, large projects will be implemented ahead. another question that is relevant for all regions. what support measures in the mormon region can participants of a special... military operation and their loved ones now count on, and is the region coping with this?

task, is there a need for additional assistance from the state? in the mormon region there are five closed territorial entities, 27 points of deployment of military formations, these are respectively the territories where about 150,000 people live in our country, and this is almost 20% of the population living in such territories, and of course these territories must also be developed, of particular importance not only the improvement of these territories, but also, of course, all the social support measures that we need in every possible way, this is our direct responsibility, organize and provide in every possible way, and most importantly, fulfill all the obligations that we undertake in relation to our heroes and, accordingly, their seven, and in addition to the federal measures that already exist, of course, the mormon region has its own regional measures, we have such unique programs as, for example, the mother’s salary, because it is very important to note that in the territories

where young military families live, the birth rate is quite high, the mother’s salary is such a measure where the mother sits at home, even more receives money from the region, this is one of those very important , significant supports, moreover, the age price does not matter, and we understand perfectly well that mothers today can become absolutely at any age, our hero, who are the heroes of russia, 5 million rub the region pays money so that they can also use their needs, and oddly enough, many people always wonder: is building your own house in the murmansk region really such an interesting direction, well, to the north, whoever could have thought that his own house in the north would be in demand, so yes, there is individual housing construction, we have a unique program for our own house in the arctic, where our heroes, participants in a special military operation have

priority rights to registration for participation in this program, they can receive 15 million in order to buy house kits or invest in the construction of a house, and this is also significant support, we already have more than 22 measures, which, as i said, we financially supported, support and of course, we will develop them, transformation in the notary sphere, from the new year the cost of legal and technical services will be a regional tariff, which will be tied to the cost of living in each specific region. the pricing formula was approved by the ministry of justice, whose order provides for a number of benefits, including for participants of the sbo and members; she recalled that it was the federation council that raised the issue of unreasonably high tariffs for notary services and ordered to speed up the process of changes for the better. we need to bring this topic up already seriously, thoroughly, systematically, so that tariffs for notarial services really

reflect labor costs and notarial services are available to all segments of the population, pensioners, low-income people, and so on, i already raised the question with the frontman that many of our notaries do not work, they work their assistants according to their power of attorney, what is this anyway, this is a different measure of responsibility and it’s generally disgraceful if there is a notary, he should be a notary, we have notaries who live abroad, and their assistants here they fill out the documents, there’s still so much to sort out, no one with this service. i haven’t studied seriously for many, many years. the federation council did not rule out attempts to interfere in the electoral process before the presidential elections in russia from other states. senators need to do a more effective job of combating such attempts, including while observing the campaign and voting itself. this was stated by the chairman of the commission for

the protection of state sovereignty, andrei klimov. he also talked about how they are formed western fakes to influence russians in general about tightening the so-called. what can be done now to prevent similar attempts in the future? as you know, there are presidential elections ahead? i would start, perhaps, from the end of your question, the fact is that we have been working in this direction for more than a year, it was obvious to us even then that our political calendar was being carefully studied by russia’s enemies and they were doing the maximum that they were able to do, they can really do a lot to ensure that these destructive elements helped them in their anti-russian activities, as for the methods that they could use, unfortunately the list here is huge, but we will try

to publish this list as much as possible in our annual report, which we plan to present to the federation council... at the end this year and there will be a separate section dedicated to these threats in relation to our political calendar for the year 24. andrey arkadyevich, you maintain close contact on work in this direction with colleagues in the cis interparliamentary assembly, tell us about the results and further plans for cooperation in this area. indeed , recently there has been coordination between us and our international partners, especially in the neighboring countries, on issues of protecting the state. by ensuring electoral independence, the independence of states, this coordination is strengthened, in particular, some countries, and not only the countries of the soviet union, they borrow our experience, it is no secret that even georgia, which in general is no longer part of our

integration systems, there they also realized that it is necessary to somehow suppress the activities of foreign agents, they are apparently studying international. we have become familiar with our developments here, and these developments, in particular our framework, let’s call it that, law on control over persons under foreign influence, it is being studied very seriously, even our opponents, by the way, borrow something from there in their practical activities, fearing that they will get into their business, and there are very strange fears, well, let’s say, the poles fear that germany will get into their electoral process, similar questions are asked in other, that is, european states in relation to each other, so here, in fact, what we do matters not only for repelling external attacks, but also for so that the very principle

of interference in the internal affairs of a sovereign state is intolerable, in this regard we conduct a very wide range of consultations in the format: in the bricks format and in many other formats, that is, we act using parliamentary methods diplomacy and in the international arena. the federation council has summed up the results of the tourist season; by the end of the year, the volume of tourist flows within the country may reach pre-pandemic levels, amounting to about 70 million people. such indicators were achieved thanks to effective government support measures, which will continue. meanwhile, the autumn holidays are just around the corner and some parents are planning a joint holiday with their children at this time. one of the attractive ones. tourist destinations is the chechen republic, how many are there year she received guests, we learn from the senator from the region, mahammad akhmadov. the chechen republic retains one of the first localities. more popular destinations among tourists in our country, today large-scale projects are being implemented in our republic that

contribute to increasing the growth of tourists in our republic, this is the veduchi base ski resort project, casino am, and i would like to note the fact that at the veduchi ski resort, now a project is being implemented where a ropeway is being built, which does not exist there is an analogue in the world, only... there is one in krasnaya polyana, the city of sochi, the cabins of this cable car will pass at an altitude of 852 m and the length of the route will be 4,000 m. and also nikholoevsky waterfalls, which we have in the republic of cascade waterfall, where, where our tourists love to travel. the flow of tourists in our republic is becoming more and more every year, this is all thanks to the wise policy pursued by the head of our republic. ramzan akhmatovich kadyrov, it’s not for nothing that the chechen republic is recognized as one of the safest regions in russia. i would like to note the fact that in the first

six months of this year, in 6 months, the flow of tourists to the chechen republic increased by 75%. that is, this suggests that every year the interest in our republic is becoming greater, and for this, a lot is really being done in the republic. i would also like to answer the fact that the capacity of our airport is, one might say, increasing every month , new directions are opening, both within our country and outside our state, with us the airport can be reached to turkey , the arab emirates, uzbekistan, kazakhstan, and we are also currently working on the issue of the sultanate of oman in order to open the formidable moskat flight first, of course, this will also contribute to the influx of tourists, there is interest both from the aman side and tourists from our side , we have a lot of sporting events in our republic, which accordingly also attracts... a large number of tourists who are interested in sports. tourists, extreme sports

enthusiasts who love to come to our republic pass through passes in the mountains, on foot with overnight stays in the mountains, they love mountaineering and climbing in the mountains, well, all the necessary conditions are created for them so that once a tourist arrives, he has a desire to come more and more, in our republics the guest is the most important person , for chechens there is nothing more expensive than guests, and we did... everything to ensure that any guest who comes to our republic feels comfortable, safe, and convenient. what part of the regional budget is revenue from the tourism sector and is it worth it? the task is to increase this share? well, the chechen republic was visited by more than 160,000 tourists this year in the first six months, the share of the gross added value of the tourism industry in the gross regional product of the chechen republic is 4.5%. as part of the implementation of the strategy... for the socio-economic development of the chechen republic, by 2035, this percentage should increase to 9%. of course, this is an ambitious

plan, but it is achievable, we will make every effort to achieve this, of course, we will achieve results. an unforgettable experience, chechen the republic impressed our correspondent, oksana podturkina, right now she will tell you which places in the region are a must-see for every tourist. grozny is called a city on... sunzha is a river that flows here , we are now on the roof of the business center, which is used as a helicopter observation deck, the height of the building is about 100 m, from here the formidable is visible at a glance, and if you come close to the fence , then it is certainly breathtaking; from a bird's eye view you can see in detail the capital of the chechen republic, which every year attracts more and more tourists from different parts of the country, they came from the north from tyumen, they generally like the caucasus , they like the cuisine, we don’t have a mountain, to walk around, travel, and generally look at the culture, the mentality, the

people, as it were, expanding their horizons, i came from talya, so i decided to see the formidable one, i’ve never been , with pleasure, generally delighted with all this, incredible beauty, we came from moscow, the girl has already come for the second time, i’m in first time, very impressive yes, yes, very beautiful people, beautiful traditions, customs, everything... it’s hard to imagine that the city was once badly destroyed, so much so that the capital of the republic was going to be moved to neighboring gudermes. the restoration of grozny and peaceful life throughout the region is the merit of its first president, akhmat kadyrov. his memory is preserved by the memorial complex of glory, which was built in a record short time, in 3 months and 21 days. in the memorial complex of glory, where we talk about heroes, about the great patriotic war, and the afghan war, the period of the fight against by international forces. terrorism in this fight, he took a direct part and laid down his life and became a hero of russia,

now we are preparing a stand - for those who are participating - svoo. another place that no guest of the regional center will definitely miss is the summer flower park. the townspeople know it as a place where 199 brides walked at the same time, which is exactly how many grozny turned that day. this was the year the park opened, followed by an equally large-scale wedding in 2018, a spectacle that is better to see once than 100 times hear. and already by the bicentenary of the city of grozny, 200 brides passed through this village, tourists walked, the whole city walked, but the groom did not walk at his wedding and the relatives from the bride’s side did not walk, because he and they are not at our weddings . chechen traditions, customs, songs and dances, our visit to grozny fell on the city day, which turned 205 years old, they say lisginka is in the blood of every chechen, this dance is a dialogue between lovers, a way to express

their sympathy without touching each other, and only dances it one guy and... can't raise her arms above her shoulders, and she should also cover her face, like this. festive festivities took place on the square next to the mosque in the heart of chechnya, here is the only orthodox church in the formidable region. the temple of the archangel michael was built at the end of the 19th century. to the left of the central iconostasis there is an icon of john the baptist, which, by the way, was given to the temple by valentina matvienko. in total , there are nine temples, 27 clocks and 10,400 mosques in the republic, each more beautiful than the other. this is a building that resembles a turtle shell. actually a mosque. she. located in argun, the fifth largest city of the republic, this is the only mosque in russia built in high-tech style. inside, like all islamic shrines, it is divided into two parts: the main male one, which is located on the ground floor, and the female one, which is located upstairs. when arghun plunges into darkness, a real light show begins: the shrine building glows with multi-colored lights, no less spectacular is the illumination of a mosque in another city of the republic of shali, where

the call to evening prayer is sounding right now. mosque name prophet muhammad, the largest in europe, it is designed for 30,000 people, here is a hair from the head of the prophet and a hair from the beard of the prophet, here you can see, from above, the shali mosque, without exaggeration, is a masterpiece of modern islamic architecture, and its name, the pride of muslims, is fully justified . 36 kg of gold were needed to decorate this mosque; colored granite, like which the vaults of the shrine are decorated with its mesmerizing magnificence, was brought from all over the world. the chandeliers deserve special attention; there are 403 of them, nine of which are made in in the form of a lotus flower. from the outside , the dazzling white structure also impresses with its elegance. the mosque is lined with stone, this is marble brought from the greek island of thasas, this marble was also used in the construction of the mosque there, during cladding, even

in the holy shrines of muslims, mecca and medina. tourists, as a rule, stop by the mosque on the way from grozny to one of the most famous reservoirs in the republic. lake, kizyanoy am, pearl, chechen and dagestan mountains. the border of two regions runs along it. coastline on the other side belongs to dagestan, and this is already the territory of the chechen republic. the reservoir is located at an altitude of 1854 m, its depth is 70 m. the color of the water changes depending on the weather. today it’s cool here, only 7°, but the local beauty is worth freezing a little. the road to the lake is a separate type of visual. mountains shrouded in clouds, ancient battle towers, herds of horses, making our way through mysterious landscapes we found ourselves on the shore of kizina am. perhaps the lake was formed as a result of a meteorite fall, and according to legend, a reservoir is nothing more than retribution for human cruelty, one day god sent an angel to earth in human guise, from the entire village, only one woman sheltered a wanderer, who managed to escape punishment, one morning she woke up and saw that this

place was flooded, the earth swallowed up... aul, a lake appeared in this place, almost 40 km from this lake is the excavation site of noah’s ark, why is this version very close to the chechens, because we call ourselves nokhchi, which translates as descendants of noah. path to the lake and back it runs past a stream that flows down the hill, as if a girl’s braid is falling from her shoulders, the word stream is called that way. recently, many russians have discovered the chechen republic, because the region has all the conditions for comfortable tourism. but most importantly, guests are always welcome here. oksana podturkina, yuri bilov and nikita vasiliev, senate program from the chechen republic. next week, senators will consider improving the mechanism for purchasing residential premises using maternity capital funds. will discuss issues of digital competencies of lawyers and
