Prime Minister Vladimir Putin meets with Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Zhukov
The discussion was focused on two subjects: the work to finalise the list of strategically important drugs that will begin to be manufactured in Russia in the next few years and the subsidies for the construction and renovation of sports facilities in Russian regions, which will be used, among other things, to train Russian national teams and the Olympic reserve.
Mr Putin and Mr Mukhametshin discussed ways to support the Russian language abroad, as well as the Federal Agency’s work in universities and involvement in international development programmes. The prime minister asked about the effectiveness of the funds allocated for these purposes and expressed support for the Federal Agency’s initiative to create a national programme to support international development.
