Vladimir Putin held a meeting of the State Council Presidium on export development at the Kremlin

One of the key topics on the agenda was the growing role of Russia's regions in developing the country's export potential.

Next year, the newly updated International Cooperation and Exports national project will be set in motion. The solutions, steps, and policies contained in this project should be based on the foundation of Russia's export performance, economic development priorities, and objective global trends.

During the first seven months of 2024, exports of non-resource-based, non-energy goods continued growing, increasing by another percent and reaching $89.8 billion. In some areas, such as food supplies, Russia has already become one of the world's leading exporters. According to the Executive Order On the National Development Goals, Russia's non-resource, non-energy exports should further increase by two-thirds by 2030 compared to 2023.

All around the world, numerous countries are now tackling the creation of the so-called supranational payment infrastructure, complete with an option to use digital currencies of some central banks and digital financial assets. Such a system would be able to operate smoothly and independently of any third parties.

The Russian Export Centre runs a dedicated programme known as "Made in Russia" that helps create a positive image for Russian brands. This policy should be scaled up and expanded in its scope.

The President's speech at the plenary session of the Russian Energy Week International Forum. Key points:

A multipolar development model is emerging today, sending a new wave of global growth for the rest of the 21st century. This growth will be concentrated in the BRICS countries, as well as the states that consider equal cooperation with due respect for national interests the promising way to proceed.

Russia remains a key player on the energy market. Over the past two and a half years, Russian companies were able to pivot to other markets in terms of oil, oil products, and coal supplies. Friendly nations now account for over 90 percent of Russia's energy exports, with totals remaining virtually the same as in 2021, except for natural gas.

Russia is expanding energy cooperation in both geography and scale: new trade routes are being created to fast-growing markets, including EAEC and CIS states, as well as South Eurasia countries, natural gas supplies through the Power of Siberia pipeline are being increased, and LNG exports are still on the rise.

The share of foreign trade transactions denominated in the ruble is now close to 40 percent. At the same time, as part of its cooperation with the BRICS countries, Russia is working on its own payment circuit that will provide conditions for servicing all foreign trade effectively and independently.

Russia is ready to strengthen the technological sovereignty of its partners in the energy sector, building full-fledged research and production chains. This will open up additional opportunities for scientists and researchers, as well as the development of machine engineering and Russia's energy sector in its entirety.

Next year, Russia will launch the New Nuclear and Energy Technologies national project in order to consolidate its global leadership in the nuclear industry and ensure its technological sovereignty across the entire fuel and energy sector.

The President approved a list of instructions following the August 22 meetings on economic matters

According to the document, the Government and the Bank of Russia are to consider establishing special conditions for the procedure of out-of-court personal bankruptcy to be applied to persons who signed a military enlistment contract and participate in the special military operation.

Additionally, the President gave instructions to amend the legislation to ensure that:

mechanisms are established for combating the theft of funds via use of social engineering (meaning situations when citizens are coerced by threats, deception, or confidence tricks into getting consumer loans and then transferring the borrowed funds to the scammers), with provisions made for introducing a 'cooldown period' between the approval of a loan from a moneylender for an individual and the actual transfer of funds to that individual;

during the 'cooldown period', the lender notifies the borrower about the fact that they entered into a consumer loan agreement, the terms of such an agreement, and the possibility of refusing the loan via the "Unified Portal of State and Municipal Services (Functions)" federal state information system.
