The modern Urals is proud not only of its industry, but also of the improvement of the quality of life in the Ural Federal District. Housing is being built at an intensive pace and a comfortable urban environment is being created. In the first 10 months of 2023, almost 7.5 million square meters of housing was commissioned - 8.4% more than in the same period last year.

"Where the Great Victory was forged" - this is how people often talk about the Urals. Historically, this region is associated with advanced industry - mechanical engineering, metallurgy, military-industrial complex. The macro-region includes the most resource-rich subjects of our country. Western Siberia alone accumulates more than 20% of the world's natural gas reserves. The brands of the macro-region are Uralmashzavod, Uralvagonzavod, and the Samotlor field, which began to be developed back in the USSR. Nevertheless, the exposition of the Ural Federal District regions is not only about the achievements of the past. It is about the present and the future", — said Daria Kislitsyna, Head of the Department for Work with Regions of EISR, Deputy Chairman of the Commission on Territorial Development, Urban Environment and Infrastructure of the Civic Chamber of the Russian Federation.

Anatoly Gagarin, Head of the Expert Club of the Sverdlovsk region, Professor of the Department of Political Sciences of the Ural Federal University, Doctor of Philosophy, highlighted the main emphases of the exposition.

"All regions of the Ural Federal District tried to express the identity of their native land in their own presentations in a bright and original way. The triad "past - present - future" in each region was presented as comprehensively as possible and with the use of modern interactive technologies. That is why the Demidov Loft at the presentation of the Sverdlovsk region was supplemented with modern multimedia technologies, the history of the pioneers of the gas and oil-and-gas-bearing North at the stands of the Tyumen region, Khanty-Mansi and Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Areas were combined with interactive quizzes and handicrafts. The Chelyabinsk region surprises with unique swings with immersive effect on which you can see the natural beauty of the region, and the Kurgan region amazes visitors with a laser projection of a bridge spanning from one region to another", — the expert shared his impressions.

Oleg Golikov, Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Small and Medium Entrepreneurship, expressed his conviction that the regions of the Ural Federal District, which have written themselves into history with their industrial and scientific achievements, are the backbone of the country.

"But the future of the Urals, in my opinion, is equally great. Because today the backbone of the country offers the widest prospects for everyone who wants to develop, and above all for young people. The Urals have everything for this: powerful factories and agro-industrial sector, science cities and world-class universities, but most importantly, a comfortable environment for every family is being created here: housing and roads are being built, transport, healthcare, culture and sports are being developed. Here they have a unique nature and inexhaustible opportunities for the development of tourism and travel", — the deputy added.

On November 26, the Days of the Volga Federal District Regions will start at the International RUSSIA EXPO.
