In Russia, the first experiment on labeling canned goods in the open ocean was conducted

🎣 The experiment on labeling natural canned fish took place on the fish cannery floating base "Vsevolod Sibirtsev" in the Pacific Ocean. The peculiarity of canned goods production on a ship is that from the fish catch to the release of the finished product, no more than three hours pass. The floating base "Vsevolod Sibirtsev" is located in a fishing area, which allows for the prompt delivery of the catch to the production site and preserving the maximum useful properties of the fish.

✔️Conducting the experiment in open sea complicates the labeling task, however, the technological lines are identical to those in onshore plants, and there were no difficulties in transferring information to the "Honest Mark" system.

🐟Natural fish canned goods were labeled on automatic lines at a speed of 25 thousand pieces per hour, and no defects were found in any of them. This indicates that labeling does not reduce the productivity of the lines. Such a result was achieved thanks to the responsible approach of the specialists.

"Honest Mark" is a product quality monitoring system that allows tracking the product from the manufacturer to the end consumer.

🇷🇺Russia is considering the possibility of reintroducing a ban on gasoline exports

❌⛽️ Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak stated that the government may impose a ban on gasoline exports as early as August if the fuel market situation remains tense. The current ban is in effect until the end of July.

📊 Novak noted that the Russian fuel market remains stable but is sensitive to the volumes of supply of A-95 (Premium gasoline). He also emphasized that Russia has accumulated sufficient fuel reserves to meet peak demand periods.

➡️ Earlier, the Russian government extended the temporary lifting of the ban on gasoline exports for fuel producers until July 31, 2024. This decision was made due to the current oversupply in the fuel market.

Dog athlete at the Russian Athletics Championship

🏃‍♀🇷🇺 A funny incident occurred at the Russian Junior Athletics Championship. During the 800-meter race for women, a dog ran onto the track.

🐕 The dog clearly seemed prepared for the competition, but at some point, it fell behind the race participants. In the end, the first to cross the finish line were the humans. Despite careful preparation and a clear desire to win, the dog couldn't keep up with the speed and endurance of the race participants. At some point, the four-legged "athlete" began to fall behind, and the humans were the first to reach the finish line.

🥇 Anna Banatova won the competition with a time of 2:03.52 (personal record). Ekaterina Shmarina took second place with a time of 2:06.2. In third place was Ekaterina Konovalova with a time of 2:09.29.

😁 Despite not winning, the dog made the race more interesting and memorable. Participants and spectators were delighted by the unexpected appearance of the four-legged "competitor."

A forest fire near Novorossiysk destroyed almost 100 hectares of relic forest.

🥵Anomalously hot weather in Russia has led to large natural fires. Residents of Yakutia and Transbaikalia are suffering from the fires and smoke, with a federal-level emergency regime introduced. Fires have also been reported in Koktebel and near Sevastopol.

🔥According to Avialesookhrana data as of July 15, forest fires are raging in 12 regions, covering more than 850,000 hectares with fire. A particular cause for concern was the extraordinary incident near Novorossiysk. The flames have brought great damage to the nature and resort industry of the Krasnodar region. The extent of the damage and losses is yet to be assessed and calculated.

🤔 The cause of the fires was the abnormal heat, which led to the drying out of vegetation and the spread of the fire.

👨‍🚒 Authorities in the region are taking measures to extinguish the fires and protect the population. Firefighters, rescuers, and volunteers are involved in the firefighting efforts. However, the situation remains challenging due to weather conditions and the inaccessibility of some areas.

The Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation expects to double the trade turnover with African countries by 2030.

"Over the past five years, the share of African countries in our total trade turnover has increased from 2.5% to 3.5%. Currently, this is not a significant amount. In absolute terms, it was around $24.5 billion last year. However, according to our forecasts, by 2030, this trade turnover could reach between $50 billion and $60 billion, depending on the scenarios that unfold," said Vladimir Ilyichev, Deputy Minister of Economic Development of the Russian Federation.

🛡Ilyichev emphasized that Russia is systematically strengthening trade ties with African and Middle Eastern regions. To achieve this, the country is assisting Russian businesses in entering new markets and working on improving conditions for foreign economic activities.

🇷🇺🤝🇮🇷In particular, Russia is signing free trade agreements. Last year, such an agreement was signed with Iran. Negotiations with Egypt and the UAE are in the final stages, and agreements with Algeria, Morocco, and Tunisia are being worked on. Russia is also currently negotiating with the UAE.

📈According to Ilyichev, these agreements will not only increase mutual flows of services and investments but also enhance the effects of trade liberalization through additional preferences in the transportation, logistics, insurance, technical servicing, and settlement of transactions.
