From July 4 to 6 in the town of Chadaana (in the Dzun-Khemchik district) the third Ustuu-Khuree Music Festival will be held. This festival is devoted to the restoration of a unique Buddhist temple, called Ustuu-Khuree (in Tuvan, "Upper Monastery"). The live music festival has many styles of music represented -- folk and rock-, pop- and jazz-musicians will participate in it. The idea for the Festival Ustuu-Khuree is that of Igor Dulush, founder of the rock group Internat, ex-boxer and a very observant Buddhist.

The United Nations Development Program in the Russian Federation has presented, in one of the most beautiful exhibition halls of the Tretyakov Gallery which is devoted to Valeri Vrubel, its 2001 Human Development Report for Russia. As with the six previous reports, this one is not an overview of the socioeconomic situation in 2001, but actually an analytical study undertaken from a scientific point of view. The central theme of this year's report is human development across the generations. Most interesting is the data featuring the generations from a regional perspective. According to the research, out of eighty-nine regions of Russia the highest human development index is in Moscow, Tyumen Region and Republic of Tatarstan, and the lowest ones are in the Chita Region and Republic of Tuva.

Sholban Kara-ool, chairman of the Supreme Khural, and Samoilov Mongush, leader of the "Yedinstvo" faction in the Tuvan Parliament, have been received in Gosduma (Moscow) by Vladimir Pehktin, head of the "Yedinstvo" faction in the Federal Parliament. In the course of the conversation Vladimir Pehktin confirmed that the "Yedinstvo" would support the republic in defending its budgetary interests. This statement on the part of the leader of the most numerous faction in Gosduma (Russian Parliament) has a significant meaning for Tuva as the Russian Parliament now is preparing for the 3d reading of the Federal budget which should define the amount of federal donations to all the regions of Russia
