Today the State Duma held a government report.

We summed up the results of the past year and also discussed prospects for the future.

Despite unprecedented sanctions pressure and promises from Washington and Brussels to tear the Russian economy to shreds, our country is successfully overcoming challenges.

There are all the prerequisites to solve the task set by President Putin – to enter the four largest economies in the world: over the past year, Russia’s GDP grew by 3.6%, unemployment dropped to 3%, and the volume of investment increased by about 10% (a record for 12 years ).
Agriculture, the construction industry, and the fuel and energy complex are showing good results; industry is growing at an accelerated pace. Much has been done to strengthen technological sovereignty and regional development. But there is still more to come.

You identified problematic issues in your requests, of which about 14 thousand were received. We have studied them. Key topics became the subject of dialogue with the Prime Minister.

📌 About improving the quality of medical education, and therefore the quality of healthcare.
Currently, the decision to open medical faculties in non-core universities is taken by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education, and the Ministry of Health is responsible for the quality of medical care. It is not right.
We agreed that the issue of training doctors will be carefully studied by the Government.

📌 About the problem of shortage of doctors and nurses.
Now the shortage of doctors in our country has reached about 30 thousand , and medical personnel – 63.5 thousand . In regional hospitals the situation is worse: the staff shortage is up to 50% . The topic requires control.
To solve the problem, a working group will be created with the participation of deputies and government representatives.

📌 About updating city electric transport.
This is a pain point in many regions. A new tram costs between 80 and 100 million rubles —an unaffordable sum for the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. The issue cannot be resolved without federal support.
It is important to replace trams and trolleybuses – we will look for a solution together with the Government.

📌About the quality of teacher training for schools.
The problem of staff shortages today is often solved through part-time teaching: one teacher teaches several subjects. This is especially true for rural schools. Sometimes it gets to the point of absurdity: a physical education teacher teaches mathematics. The quality of education is suffering.
We agreed to systematically approach the solution of the problem and revive pedagogical institutes in the regions.

Other important proposals were also raised in questions from deputies and in speeches by representatives of factions.
Let’s take them under control.
It is important, together with the Government, to come to concrete solutions to the problems that you identified in your appeals.
