Trutnev declared the leadership of the Far East in key indicators

Since 2015, the Far East has been ahead of other regions of Russia in key indicators. Yuri Trutnev, Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation and Presidential Plenipotentiary Envoy to the Far Eastern Federal District, told Izvestia on September 4.

"In 2013, President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin identified the development of the Far East as a national priority. A system of legislation has been created. We've been doing this for a little over a year. And, as a matter of fact, since 2015, the Far East has been ahead of other Russian territories in all key indicators," Trutnev said on the sidelines of the Eastern Economic Forum 2025 (WEF 2025).

He stressed that this was made possible by the creation of an effective system of preferential regimes that help attract investment.

"The government invests money in infrastructure, and invests in various things. For example, a museum and theater complex is being built here. Is it important for people? Of course, it's important. At the same time, investors are investing money in direct investment projects," Trutnev added.
