The government is developing a new socio-economic program - a model of the country's development in the current geopolitical reality. This was told to Vedomosti by a source close to the Cabinet of Ministers and two federal officials involved in the work.

The information was indirectly confirmed by official representatives of the Cabinet of Ministers, vice-premiers and ministries. According to the first interlocutor, since June, sectoral strategic sessions have started in the government led by Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin, the task of which is to identify weaknesses and present a vision of development in specific areas. One of the main goals, according to the interlocutor, is to determine how sovereignty will be achieved in various areas: medicine, IT, industry, etc.

But economic and technological independence is "not the cornerstone" of the program, he said. “The key is to understand how we will live in the future and to build development paths. The issue of sovereignty is important, but it is only touched upon in those areas where it makes sense to achieve this,” a source close to the government emphasized.
