Россия значительно улучшила свое положение в глобальных цепочках добавленной стоимости (global value chains или GVC) с середины 1990-х годов, говорилось в исследовании ЕЦБ, опубликованном прошлым летом. Авторы рассматривали изменения, произошедшие в период с 1995 по 2011 год.
Парламентская ассамблея Организации по безопасности и сотрудничеству в Европе (ОБСЕ), несмотря на протест России, приняла резолюцию в поддержку восстановления суверенитета и территориальной целостности Украины.
Организация по запрещению химического оружия (ОЗХО) опубликовала доклад об изучении химической атаки, осуществленной 4 апреля 2017 года в сирийском Хан-Шейхуне.

The 10th Combat Aviation Brigade from Fort Drum, New York deployed to Europe in February 2017 with over 2,200 soldiers and 86 aircraft including Chinooks, Black Hawks, MEDEVAC Black Hawks, and Apaches. The brigade is based in Illesheim, Germany and has detachments in Latvia, Romania, and plans a future team in Poland. Their mission is to support Operation Atlantic Resolve and conduct training, medical transport, and aviation operations to improve European interoperability.
В Калифорнии начался сбор подписей за отделение от США - так называемый Calexit. Сторонникам инициативы предстоит в течение 180 дней собрать около 600 тысяч подписей, после чего будет возможно проведение конституционного референдума.
This document describes engineering Mycobacterium smegmatis to produce polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) beads displaying mycobacterial antigens for use as a tuberculosis vaccine. M. smegmatis was engineered to express three enzymes involved in PHA production and a fusion protein linking PHA synthase to the TB antigens Ag85A and ESAT-6. This resulted in PHA beads displaying the antigens on their surface. Mice were vaccinated with the engineered PHA beads and they induced a cellular immune response against the mycobacterial antigens, demonstrating their potential as a TB vaccine.
The Independent Person submitted a second report summarizing the findings of an investigation into allegations of state-sponsored doping in Russia. Key findings included: (1) Over 1000 Russian athletes were involved in an institutionalized doping conspiracy between 2011-2015; (2) Sample swapping occurred at the 2014 Sochi Olympics, 2013 World Championships, and on a monthly basis in Moscow through 2015; (3) 15 Russian medalists from the 2012 London Olympics had positive tests covered up. The report provides evidence of sample tampering and identifies athletes who benefited from manipulation of doping tests.
The State Department approved a possible $200 million sale of 70 JASSM-ER missiles and related equipment to Poland to improve its defense capabilities. The sale will help improve the security of a NATO ally and allow Poland to strengthen its air-to-ground strike capabilities and increase its contribution to future NATO operations. The missiles will enhance Poland's ability to counter regional threats and strengthen its homeland defense. The sale will not alter the military balance in the region and will not require additional U.S. government representatives in Poland.
The State Department approved a possible $200 million sale of 70 JASSM-ER missiles and related equipment and support to Poland. The sale will help improve Poland's defense capabilities and allow it to better contribute to NATO operations. It will also strengthen the security of a NATO ally without altering the basic military balance in the region. The prime contractor is Lockheed Martin and implementation will not require additional U.S. personnel in Poland or have any impact on U.S. defense readiness.
Оккупация Российской Федерацией Крыма равнозначна международному вооруженному конфликту между Украиной и Россией. Такое определение содержится в ежегодном отчете Международного уголовного суда (Гаагского трибунала).
ВАДА предоставляет перевод на русский язык доклада Макларена об итогах расследования
18 июля 2016 года Всемирное антидопинговое агентство (ВАДА) опубликовало Доклад Ричарда Макларена об итогах независимого расследования. Этот доклад впоследствии был представлен профессором Ричардом X. Маклареном во время пресс-конференции в г.Торонто, Канада.
В докладе, который был представлен только на английском языке, изложены выводы профессора Макларена относительно обвинений в применении допинга в спорте, опубликованных в CBS «60 Minutes» и в The New York Times 8 и 12 мая 2016 года, соответственно.
Следует отметить, что в случае каких-либо разночтений между английской и русской версиями, преимущественную силу имеет версия на английском языке.
This document summarizes a study that analyzed 33 health-related UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) indicators using data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2015. The study found that in 2015, countries' performance on health-related SDG indicators varied widely, from a score of 85.5 in Iceland to 20.4 in Central African Republic. Progress between 2000-2015 also varied, with some indicators like contraceptive use and child mortality improving substantially but others like hepatitis B and childhood overweight changing little or worsening. The analysis provides a baseline assessment of countries' status on key health-related SDG indicators to help guide policies and measure progress toward achieving the SDGs.
The document analyzes open source evidence to estimate the number of Russian servicemen involved in fighting in eastern Ukraine since 2014. It finds that thousands of medals were awarded to Russian servicemen in 2014-2015 for combat actions, indicating their direct participation. While an exact number cannot be determined, the evidence suggests over 10,000 Russian servicemen were involved, contrary to Russia's denials, and the actual number is likely much higher.
The Independent Person investigated allegations of doping and sample tampering at the 2014 Sochi Olympics and other events. Three key findings resulted:
1. The Moscow Laboratory operated a system to cover up doped Russian athletes' positive drug tests through methods described as the "Disappearing Positive Methodology."
2. The Sochi Laboratory used unique sample swapping methods to enable doped Russian athletes to compete at the Sochi Games.
3. The Russian Ministry of Sport directed and oversaw the manipulation of drug test results and sample swapping, with assistance from security services and laboratories in Moscow and Sochi.
The report provides evidence for these findings based on witness interviews, document review, and forensic analysis

This document is the prepublication summary of a report by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Committee on Genetically Engineered Crops. The committee was tasked with reviewing the experiences and prospects of GE crops based on evidence from the last two decades. The summary finds that while many GE traits have been developed, only herbicide and insect resistance have been widely commercialized, primarily in soybean, cotton, maize, and canola. It examines claims about GE crop impacts and reviews regulatory approaches as newer genetic engineering techniques emerge.
