a few hours ago at the airport of the chinese capital and today vladimir putin will see sidzenping during the opening of the forum, but bilateral negotiations between the leaders of russia and china are scheduled for tomorrow, but the bulk of the bilateral meetings are scheduled for today with the head of the russian state. for the first time today, vladimir putin will meet with the new president of vietnam and the new prime minister of thailand, in addition, meetings are planned with contacts, as they say in diplomatic circles on their feet, when they can discuss the most pressing and important issues at this moment in the format of such a short conversation, and as noted today in an interview with the chinese newspaper global times, the official representative of the ministry of russia maria zakharova, work in such international formats, meetings between heads of state are increasingly important in the context. rapidly

changing geopolitical situation and contributes to the qualitative strengthening of ties between our countries. some details of vladimir putin’s visit here to the people’s republic of china were previously told by presidential aide yuri ushakov, and he listed the members of the delegation that is working these days in the chinese capital. dmitry chernyshenko and alexander novyk, deputy prime minister of the russian government, arrived here in beijing. in addition, the heads of the ministry of foreign affairs work here. the ministry of transport of the ministry of finance, the ministry for the development of the far east and the arctic, the head of the central bank of russia, and in addition , a large group of heads of enterprises, both public and private, work here at the forum events, these are the heads of russian railways, sberbank, the russian direct investment fund, rosneft , vtb, rosatom, gazprom, novatek and web. the russian federation and i will note that the initiative is one train , one track. this is not just one project

that was proposed by the leader of the prc in 2013 xinping, this is a whole initiative that brings together many projects that are designed for more than one generation and concern many areas, including the development of the transport structure, strengthening, strengthening economic ties, creating new transport logistics routes, land-sea and even strengthening cultural ties between the peoples of states, and as the day before, the course that the people's republic of china proposes to develop, that is, the course towards the development of partnership, is very consonant with the fact that offers for eurasia and the russian federation. russia supports this chinese initiative, and we see that it fits very well with our initiatives to create a large eurasian space, and also fits well with the activities of the eac. the eac and china have reached an agreement on this matter. there is even

a roadmap for enhancing cooperation. the people's republic of china and his wife, peng liyun, will meet the leaders of the delegation, today in the very heart of beijing, in the great hall of the people, it is located in tianyan square, well, all bilateral meetings will be held at in the west of the chinese capital in the residence, it translates as a terrace for fishing, indeed eight centuries ago this object was created really for this purpose, then the residence of the emperor appeared there, but already in 1949, in 1959 in honor of the decade: on a smaller scale, but this is considered one of the main objects in general in beijing, because the most honored guests are traditionally received there, the heads of the delegation, heads of state are located there, for

vladimir putin, this trip to diayu will not be the first, and we have already seen footage of how this oldest residence in one of the most important places in all of beijing, now. russian tricalor is already developing. yuri. yes, elizabeth, thank you, together with you we will monitor what is happening. let me remind you that our special correspondent elizaveta khramtsova was in direct communication from beijing, where the russian president arrived on a visit today. well, continuing the theme of the visit of the russian delegation to china, we will learn about the economic agenda. and now my colleague artyom yamshchikov will introduce us to her. artyom, hello, we already know something about signing. yuri, yes, the creation of a russian-chinese civil aviation investment fund worth 100 billion rubles has already been announced. so, the third forum of international cooperation, one train, one track, is taking place in china. in a general sense, the project represents land routes from china to europe through central asia and russia. over the 10 years of the initiative’s existence

, a total of more than a trillion dollars have been invested in the world and more than 420,000 jobs have been created . global logistics project for over thirty international states organizations. today is reserved for the business part of the forum; russian-chinese negotiations are planned for tomorrow. vladimir putin is the main foreign guest. russia and china will focus on equal interaction in the eurasian space. this primarily concerns the integration of the search and route projects and the eac. and here analysts say a lot in common. although russia is not formally part of the chinese initiative on god, we can cooperate quite actively here, first of all, these are joint joint infrastructure projects, this facilitation of trade, this is not only roads as such, but this is, for example, issues

related to facilitating transportation, this is unification, regulation, and these are many logistics centers, including facilitation for example, online trade, so, of course, in this case russia and china are interested, well, in total , eu countries have attracted one train, one track , $24 billion to the project, but in general , three high- level forums and six conferences will be held as part of the events. key topics will be logistics, digital economy, trade relations and ecology. russia and china are already linked by many joint projects. well , among the priority areas are infrastructure, industry, mining, the internet, artificial intelligence and medicine. in total, russian-chinese investments over 10 years exceeded 750 billion rubles. in other words, investors from china participate in every

third project of a russian private equity fund. if we talk about the return on these investments, then judge for yourself. revenue from portfolio companies with chinese participation. last year amounted to about 3 rubles, well, for every chinese ruble invested, there is another 5 rubles of third-party investments. against this background , the news of recent days about the creation of a joint fund for the development of the civil aviation industry with a volume of 100 billion rubles sounds logical. the money will go in equal shares to both countries. in addition to the construction of airliners , the organization will be involved in aerospace industry projects, right-wing and energy-efficient technologies, as well as big data. well, among the examples of successfully implemented projects is the launch of the northern backup of kutuzovsky prospekt, m1 highway, northern bypass of adentsov, and light rail tram line in st. petersburg.

last year, the construction of the first railway bridge across the amur between russia and china was completed, but also to understand the scale, a joint transport infrastructure. in russia , more than 25 million people use it annually; for beijing, all this is a long-term investment, from which it will also receive a return, and most importantly, on a mutually beneficial basis with russia. basis, china is building, within the framework of the one way, one road initiative, new transport corridors through eurasia, in order to export their goods to the countries of central asia in the russian federation and given in transit through kazakhstan or the russian federation, for example, to the countries of the european union. it is clear that in response to these traffic flows, some infrastructure projects are being implemented that change, or partially change. there are transport, transport flows that were there before, and although today is only the first day

of the forum, one train, one track, during the visit of the russian delegation to china it has already been signed an agreement in agriculture and food production, in particular on the processing of rapeseed and soybeans in the krasnoyarsk and primorsky territories; by the way, a joint grain terminal will be built there in primorye, and this is only the beginning of a long joint journey. yes, artyom, thank you, my colleague artyom yamshchikov spoke about the economic agenda of the visit to china, now a short advertisement, and we will continue, do not switch, choose from thousands of sokolov jewelry and watches at competitive prices, for the first time cosmetics from your favorite brand on wilburys, vtb team, here with you with the application: transferring money quickly, conveniently, coolly invented, and by whom?

significantly changed the world information agenda in recent days, so how do you assess the impact of the middle east aggravation of the situation in your zone and do you feel any changes? yuri, everything is really simple here, it will not affect us in any way in the sense that here the tasks that the president has, they will continue to be implemented throughout the entire territory of the donetsk people’s republic. within the framework of those tasks will be released, as for the ukrainian side, yes, there are significant changes, they are characteristic and here, first of all, what worries the kiev regime is ... the information component is pr, everything connected with it, and here in the information agenda kiev takes a back seat in relation to israel, and of course, this, in turn, should affect the volume of supplies as well; there is no need to experience any illusions here that now the west will suddenly somehow cut off all supplies

for the ukrainian regime in terms of weapons and equipment. but nevertheless there are accents it is possible that they will still shift, yes, but what do you think about those new publicly announced arms supplies to kiev and the lease of air defense systems to ukraine for the winter period, the rhetoric here is also already changing, in fact, and if zelensky before literally demanded, literally squeezed it out, and in some places blackmailed it, and some countries, that it’s really important to install air defense systems very quickly, even to the detriment of their own countries, now we see that he ’s talking about some kind of lease, it’s not entirely clear how this must happen and this it is also linked to the fact that it is very clearly indicative now

that aid was announced there in kiev, well, so that it is not so much obvious that there is a shift in emphasis, again... towards israel, this is how it seems to us now, how this is it seems, but again, it’s not worth experiencing any illusions, here too, that the situation will change dramatically and quickly, we need to act within the framework of those plans, within the framework of those tasks that we have drawn within ourselves within the framework of which we must proceed further. denis vladimirov, lately, in recent months, we have seen that the situation on the line and contacts is quite tense , our correspondents write about this, and in this regard i wanted to ask how much the workload on doctors and surgeons has increased recently, whether there are enough places in hospitals , what measures have to be taken? yuri, i ’ll tell you that in general the situation in our medicine is quite complicated, well, with the availability of doctors,

well, let’s say, to fully satisfy all needs, that is, we are provided medical personnel by 50%. well, the greatest shortage here is precisely among nursing staff and junior medical personnel, but now we understand for ourselves what to do, thank god we also have the donetsk medical university, it also trains personnel, and we also create all the prerequisites for graduates after all, they remained on the territory of the republic and also walked through our medical institutions and continued their work in these institutions. a-ah, as for the present moment, we really, a-ah, could not cope on our own, if it weren’t for the regions’ bosses, if it weren’t for the help of the federal center, and now we can say that all hospitals are operating as normal, we can say that we are provided with all the necessary drugs, medical, meaning, throughout the republic, we

really we are now receiving enormous support in terms of supplies of new... which we have not seen in principle and could not even dream of, now it is already being installed here, we are opening and renovating new medical institutions, we are building a perinatal center in donetsk, which is also very will have a positive impact on the demographic situation, i am sure of this, so planned work is underway here, we do not see any system failures, but again, the regional ones are helping , including specialized specialists. where is it in what regions, in what cities, towns is this needed, for example, this is needed now in gorlovka and kuzbass , it helps specialists very well and, among other things, in addition to other assistance, as provided as a regional chief, and is also needed here now assistance, in medical personnel in yesenovata,

also in a number of other settlements, but we are not recording any acute problems that are not resolved at the moment, and since we have moved on to the social agenda, uh, another question in continuation of the topic is the beginning of the heating season, how ready is the dpr for it, how are you are you assessing the situation? we are practically following the planned indicators, almost all cities and towns are on schedule, but this , alas, does not mean that all this is easy and that this is also characterized by some of our, let’s say, independent, independent solving problems, because here, too, regional chefs help, why, because here we are in the last heating season , very difficult, the most difficult that we previously went through, but we overcame it, why, because there was a shortage of water, this year, thank god

, there is already more water, thanks to the canal from the don, the seversky donets, and it’s working, but nevertheless, our accident rate has not decreased, the wear and tear of our corpses, networks has not gone away, and of course the work continues here, and i think that they will continue through the heating season, namely therefore, here the chief’s regions have formed... 121 brigades, an emergency brigade, this is about 600 specialists, about 200 units of specialized equipment, and therefore , let’s say, the most difficult situation is, of course, in areas under fire, where the same objects are repeatedly repaired , the same areas, networks, there are difficulties with this, so it seems like everything is according to plan, it seems we can say that it really is. everything that they could, but i think that there will, of course, be certain failures here, it will be necessary to prepare for this due to the impulse at the expense of

shelling, which unfortunately still continues across the territory of the donetsk people's republic, and as i understand it, the main aspect , yes, that you are now paying attention to in connection with heating is water supply, which settlements are now supplied with water on schedule, and where there is problem? you know, we can already say that there is more water, there are more settlements and areas where we cover with water, let’s say, according to the schedule or approximate, here is approximately the schedule, again this is due to those accidents, which are now typical for this situation related to infrastructure, mean that we increase the pressure so that water flows to the upper floors. this is immediately accompanied by impulses, and repeated ones, and here is the work of utility workers, who sometimes commit suicide, because not only do they repair, but they also often repair under

fire, that is, this is what is actually happening, where is the water now is already on sale, served around the clock, unfortunately, there are few such settlements, this is omrosevka, this is telmanovo, this is novoazovskaya, this is starobeshevo, this is komsomolskaya, and the goal is that everywhere we are fully provided with... water, but i want to tell you that taking into account the size of the republic, taking into account the large agglomerations, i mean donetsk, makievka, gorlovko, we will be able to completely cover with water, not, let’s say, uh , without intercepting and supplying on schedule, but with completely round-the-clock water, only when we liberate slavyansk, but only when the seversky canal is freed and repaired donets, so here now we are trying to squeeze out all the water to the maximum. to direct, of course, and to distribute as far as possible, and across all our cities and regions, but again all this is associated with

accidents and deterioration of networks, as for the positive news, traffic has opened on the bridge in mariupol, what other important road facilities are now being restored, or maybe being built anew, whatever you would call it, you know, yuri, here, indeed, this is always associated with a certain improvement... here - the movement of vehicles, the movement of our residents, and of the important roads, which are being repaired, are being repaired according to the standards of the russian federation, here the road ends, here is donetsk makeevres, and here we see how different the quality of the roads is, the quality of the asphalt covering, but also the standards they also talk about themselves, because when the road widens, when the markings correspond to those, when we see road signs installed where they are needed, when we see pedestrian zones, when it really all corresponds to the level

safe, ensuring safety, here is the movement of vehicles, of course this is all perceived differently, as it is perceived, of course, positively, but in general we have five more bridges, five more or rather two overpasses, which we must completely complete by the end of the year pass. therefore, work is being carried out, contracting organizations are working here, of course, as well as relevant departments , the ministry, both federal ones are fully included in this work, as well as regional ones, including with regard to economic development, it is reported that the dpr industrial development fund approved the first loan for a company in the region, a furniture manufacturer received it for the purchase of modern equipment, even the amount is called 18 million, and what kind of equipment. consider applications to the industrial development fund? industrial development fund.

quite an important tool , i would like to say that we place emphasis on this, as part of the development of our enterprises, why, because for a long period of time our enterprises were deprived of banking instruments, meaning loans and others, now, of course, the situation is changing, here is the industrial development fund, now for 3 years it has already planned to provide support to the enterprise in the amount of 5 billion, this is the amount that is planned for 3 years, and on what conditions, well, this very allocation of funds is being built, or rather, 80 days are being considered, which means amounts from 5 to 100 million, this is if it concerns a loan , that is, there are also grants, that is, as for loans, then from 5 to 100 million at 1% for 7 years,

that is, enough seriously. support and me i see already, that is, there is a lot of demand, i think that by the end of the year, and we will reach an amount exceeding a billion, even taking into account the fact that there is not much time left until the end of the year, we just spent a long time checking all the standards, let's say it took a long time to start in this regard, that it was necessary to work out all this, because for us this is a new mechanism, enough, but nevertheless, and it provides for the purchase... of new modern equipment, like this furniture enterprise, and what is new, new equipment, this is of course an increase production volumes, this includes the creation of additional jobs, of course, an increase in taxes for the regions , so of course we look at all this really positively, i hope that everything will work like clockwork in this regard, our enterprises need this, and what is

the unemployment rate in the dnpr today, how many people receive benefits? what can they expect, how do you work with them? from january 1, 2023, and our employment centers have already started operating within the framework of russian reality, more than 47,000 applications were submitted, from this 194 people were declared unemployed, and 44,000, even a little more, were employed, either in their specialty or for temporary work, but i want to tell you that, taking into account the shortage of personnel in the republic, these are only those enterprises that submitted their applications , with vacancies, and i’ll tell you that not all enterprises are following this path, but only those that have applied, the number of vacancies has already exceeded 80,000, that is, that is, essentially per one applicant to

the center employment. we see two vacant ones, therefore, everyone here will be employed, indeed, whoever wants to find a job, the donetsk people's republic will definitely not be left without work, but do you have data on what is the current volume of wage debts in the region and where is the most difficult situation? indeed, we still have subtle places where debt has nevertheless formed; first of all, this is still characteristic of the transition period, because . that some departments are going through liquidation, that is, the standards are being tightened, and we have recorded and now, of course, we are trying to level out all the debts as quickly as possible, this is also for our miners, that is, unfortunately, there are still difficulties, but in our industrial enterprises, let’s say in some of them too , we even have in state-owned enterprises, then

there were debts formed for some periods, that is, well, this is connected... with a lack of funds , even this is connected with those elements of the transition period, but the task of all departments, all relevant ministries, of course, is to prevent to minimize, as much as possible, any debt, because of course, for people, it’s extremely difficult, that’s the response , well, of course, in principle, it’s unacceptable, but again, law enforcement agencies are also working here so that there are no excesses, the prosecutor’s office is also working on debts, so , therefore, we are keeping our finger on the pulse as much as possible, but unfortunately, for the transition period, completely, here - eliminating wage arrears did not work out, denis vladimirov, i have several questions on social issues, after this let’s definitely move on to the operational situation regarding the debt, how much it is.
