In addition, Sergei Ivanov noted the significance of implementing an active youth policy, stressing that it is imperative to implement monitoring of youth environments and for each region to offer an extensive programme of creative activities.

Speaking about the importance of import substitution, the Chief of Staff of the Presidential Executive Office called for creating corresponding road maps in all sectors. “I feel that this work must be started immediately, so that we can begin carrying it out at the federal district level in the first quarter of 2015,” Mr Ivanov stressed.
