一 |     Sputnik spoke with Dr. D. B. Bhaaskara, CEO of the multinational company Roerich Healthcare, about the current state of pharma trade with Russia.,Sputnik: Can you explain the current state of pharma supplies to Russia?,D. B. Bhaaskara: Currently, pharmaceutical shipments of Indian firms to Russia are at the same level even after the sanctions. But, there are many proposals (supplies) that Russians are not getting from the European Union. Russians are looking for these materials (chemicals, excipients, APIs [Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients]) with several Indian manufacturers. They have to develop links with Indian firms. There are many proposals from Russia - these proposals are under consideration from the Indian side.,Sputnik: There were reports of delayed payments from Russia initially after sanctions. As we see, trade has jumped manifold in the energy and fertilizer sectors. Do you think payment issues have been resolved in other sectors as well?,D. B. Bhaaskara: Several Indian companies have signed contracts in yuan, which means they are ready to receive payment in China's yuan. Still, the preferred mode of settlement is in the Indian rupee. As export procedures closed successfully in USD/euro/INR, Russians set aside yuan contracts.,My company is receiving regular payment without any delay in Indian rupees or USD or sometimes in euros.,Sputnik: What about logistical issues, as sanctions hit the shipping sector?,D. B. Bhaaskara: The logistical issues are still there because few airlines — namely Aeroflot, Emirates, Qatar, and Turkish — are available for transportation. Transportation costs are slightly high because of no regular cargo consignments. They vary between $8-12 per kg compared to $5 per kg in a normal situation.,Cargo sea shipment is still in a mess. The only port in Gujarat accepts Russian shipping. Here again, the container price is very, very high. We have to pay anything between $9,000 - 12,000 for a container. When there was no conflict or sanctions, it was $2,500 per container.,We have tried to send our shipments via Iran. So, from Gujarat port, the shipment reaches an Iranian port, and from there, it goes via road or rail to Moscow. But, it is taking a much longer time. In general, it is supposed to arrive in 30-40 days, but on an experimental basis, some companies sent their materials via the Iran route, [and they are] still on their way even after two months.,Shanghai is very crowded and has also been hit by the pandemic, making it unsuitable for us. So, the only problem right now is logistics; there is no payment issue.,Some Russian companies have an account with European banks operating in Russia dealing in oil and gas payments. Those banks are being used to send money anywhere worldwide, even with sanctions.,Sputnik: Western firms intended to withdraw their operations in Russia in response to Moscow's special military operation. Do you see some significant investments from Indian pharma companies in Russia to fill the vacuum created by the west?,D. B. Bhaaskara: There are long-pending proposals from a couple of governors, such as [in] Volgograd and Kazan, inviting India's major pharma companies to set up manufacturing units in their region. But, due to the pandemic, nothing moved ahead.,A delegation will be going to Russia to explore the opportunities in Russia in July. A few Indian companies, such as Sun Pharma and Advance Pharma, have manufacturing units in Russia doing finished formulations.,Hopefully, some new companies are interested in setting up units there now. But, Russia is looking to scale up raw material manufacturing, e.g., API. For this, much homework related to regulation should be done between the two governments, especially under sanctions.,Also, big companies such as Sun Pharma, Aurbindo, and Dr. Reddy, all with significant exposure to the US market, may try to avoid investing in Russia because they are scared of the risk associated with sanctions.,Medium-scale companies can come forward to set up raw material (API) manufacturing in Russia. However, it is unclear whether Indian workers/professionals can go and work in Russia. Setting up a new unit in unknown topography with a different language and culture is a little complicated. A lot of these questions are unanswered.。      一方小餐堂，温养长者幸福“食”光。  截至目前，全国共有8.2万家老年助餐点，每天为400万余人次老年人提供助餐服务。这是记者8月25日从民政部在湖北武汉举行的“民政系民生 服务暖民心”之“颐养助老”主题活动上获悉的。　　8月25日中午，武汉青山区青宜居社区“好味到”食堂内，部分老年人正在排队点餐。记者 朱高祥 摄　　25日中午，武汉青山区青宜居社区“好味到”食堂饭香渐浓。这个社区老龄化率约为30%，在此就餐的老年人每餐可享受2元补贴，不到10元就能吃到荤素搭配的饭菜。随着服务员一声吆喝，社工拎起保温箱推门而出——几份热饭，要送到腿脚不便的老人家中。　　这是全国上万家老年助餐点的缩影。　　2023年10月，民政部等11部门联合印发《积极发展老年助餐服务行动方案》，明确到2026年底，全国城乡社区老年助餐服务覆盖率进一步提升，服务网络更加完善，多元供给格局基本形成。　　2024年至2025年，中央财政资金累计投入6亿元予以支持。各地将发展老年助餐服务作为为民办实事的重要举措，将其纳入“一刻钟便民生活圈”统筹规划。　　湖北武汉将助餐服务纳入特殊困难老年人服务补贴范围，累计惠及6.65万老年人；海南海口运营66家长者饭堂，实现镇街全覆盖，累计服务老年人150余万人次；江苏盐城利用农村闲置校舍等资源，改造提升115个助餐点……　　华中科技大学社会学院教授郭林认为，对独居、空巢、高龄、失能老年人而言，助餐服务既缓解了“做饭难”“吃饭难”的燃眉之急，也打开了“链接社会”的精神窗口，减轻子女照料压力。　　老年助餐，是检验“孝亲敬老”的试金石。　　“这是一项由政府负责、部门协同、社会参与、家庭尽责共同推进的系统性民生工程。”中国人民大学人口与健康学院副教授谢立黎认为，其成效与温度，正是全社会孝亲敬老的真实写照。　　支持社会餐饮企业增设“老年餐桌”，指导建立“以奖代补”“口碑排行”激励机制，发动电商、物流、志愿者等各类力量送餐……从“推己及人”的道德期许到“四方协同”的制度安排，助餐服务正将“老吾老以及人之老”化为可感可及的守护。　　老年助餐，同样标定养老服务升级的真实刻度。　　从“吃得饱”到“吃得顺心”再到“吃得健康”，助餐服务升级迭代，正为养老服务高质量发展注入新活力。　　放眼全国，各地积极探索数字化赋能，推广“线上点餐+社区配送”“无感支付”等智慧服务，不断提升老年人的就餐体验。同时，注重食品安全和属地监管责任，推行“互联网+明厨亮灶”，全力守护老年人“舌尖上的安全”。　　“下一步，民政部将会同相关部门，持续优化政策措施，用好中央财政资金，激活经营主体活力，推动更多社会力量参与，切实把这项民生实事办到老年人的心坎上。”民政部养老服务司副司长孙文灿表示。　　策划：陈芳　　记者：朱高祥、饶饶　　国内部出品。
