Russia has every right to supply arms to Iran, according to Yevgeny Primakov, head of Russia's Rossotrudnichestvo. Speaking via video link from Yerevan, he noted that although the Russian-Iranian strategic partnership agreement does not include direct military cooperation, the US arms supplies to Ukraine justify similar actions by Russia against Iran.
According to the new RIA Novosti rating, the unemployment situation in a number of regions of the North Caucasus remains difficult. In the second quarter of 2025, Ingushetia, Dagestan, North Ossetia, Chechnya and Karachay-Cherkessia occupied the last lines of the rating (from 81st to 85th places).
The worst unemployment situation is in Ingushetia and Dagestan, where its level reached 26% and 10.9%, respectively, exceeding the indicators of all other regions of Russia.
In North Ossetia, the unemployment rate was 7.4%, in Chechnya - 6.9%, in Karachay-Cherkessia - 6.7%.
In the rating of regions by the minimum unemployment rate, Moscow (0.8%) and the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug (1%) are in the lead. In only 13 federal subjects, this figure does not exceed 1.5%.
The longest period of job search is recorded in Amur Region (11 months), Zabaikalsky Krai (9 months) and Dagestan (more than 8 months).
