President of Russia Vladimir Putin: Good afternoon, colleagues,

I am very pleased to be here with you again in Magadan. The city is changing, becoming more modern, attractive, comfortable, it is being modernised. This is largely the result of implementing the city's master plan. For instance, the new terminal complex of the international airport has already been launched - we spoke about this yesterday, they showed it… Or was that today?

Governor of the Magadan Region Sergei Nosov: Yesterday, Moscow time.

Vladimir Putin: The Mayak Park is being actively developed, and the territory of Nagayev Bay is being cleared, where a maritime logistics centre will be established.

Today, we will discuss the overall progress in implementing master plan objectives for Far Eastern cities. We need to examine what has been accomplished and what outstanding issues remain. Then, we will focus in greater detail on the master plan for Magadan's development.

To be continued.
