                       ''I would like to thank the Ministry of Industry and Trade and the private partner
               for the titanic work that has been done. From July 1, labeling is mandatory for medicines,
               footwear  and  tobacco.  The  following  product  groups,  for  which  the  Government  has
               already made a decision, will also start in accordance with the approved deadlines. The
               government  is  closely  monitoring  this  work,  taking  all  the  necessary  measures.  Both
               the Prime Minister and the Chief of Staff of the Government, who keeps this topic under
               constant personal control, made the regular reports.  Based on the results of what we
               see, we understand that there are no objective prerequisites for postponing the marking
               time. This is the general  position  of  the Government.  Moreover,  we transmitted  this
               position to the deputies of the State Duma. The deputies agreed with us. We now have
               a lot of joint work on fine-tuning, debugging some mechanisms, but this, I emphasize,
               is only debugging and in no way a reason to raise the issue of postponing the deadline.
               To  summarize:  marking  to  be'',  said  Alexei  Uvarov,  the  Deputy  Chief  of  Staff  of  the
               Government of the Russian Federation, stressing that there are no objective prerequisites
               for postponing the introduction of marking.



                      ''The task of labeling as a state system is to improve the competitive position of
               bona fide business, those who work in accordance with the law, and those who are looking
               for new points of growth and efficiency. Another important point from the point of view
               of control and supervision activities is to reduce the administrative burden on market
               participants. Participation in the system is an additional criterion of good faith and implies
               a reduction in the number of checks by control authorities. Today we are creating a whole
               segment of the digital economy. We consider marking in Russia as a national project; we
               are already talking about the transition to electronic document management. This is the
               creation of huge verified, accurate, and not approximate, big data sets. This is important
               both for the state and for business. This is truly a breakthrough story. We are pioneers                                                                                                       Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia
