SURABAYA, INDONESIA, May 2, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember (ITS) has developed an innovative technology known as Benwit (Palm Gasoline), enabling the conversion of crude palm oil (CPO) into high-quality biogasoline, and presenting a promising alternative for reducing Indonesia’s substantial dependence on imported petroleum and foreign extraction technologies.Geopolitical tensions have continued to disrupt the global oil market and threaten energy supply security across Southeast Asia, thus emerging economies such as Indonesia are placing greater emphasis on energy sovereignty to safeguard national interests against the volatility of fossil fuel supply chains. Dr Eng Hosta Ardhyananta ST MSc explained the process and results of producing Palm Oil Gasoline using the "Benwit" method he discovered.The research, funded by the Indonesian Oil Palm Plantation Fund Management Agency (BPDPKS), applies an advanced catalytic cracking method developed by ITS expert Dr. Eng. Hosta Ardhyananta, S.T., M.Sc., and his team. This method is designed to decompose large triglyceride molecules in crude palm oil (CPO) into lighter hydrocarbon fractions that are suitable for use in combustion engines.Hosta's team successfully optimized the reaction by introducing a bimetallic catalytic composed of Nickel Oxide (Nio) and Copper Oxide (CuO). This catalytic synergy enabled a substantial reduction in operating temperature, from 380°C to 320°C, while simultaneously increasing the biogasoline yield from 60% to an impressive 83%.The resulting fuel consists of short-chain hydrocarbons (C5–C11), closely resembling the chemical composition of commercial gasoline. In addition to the primary fuel product, the process reflects a zero-emission approach, in which gaseous byproducts are recycled as a heat source for the reactors, while liquid residues are repurposed as fuel for industrial or household stoves.Hosta noted that the innovation has been applied with agricultural machinery, but testing has been underway since April with conventional internal combustion engines through a blending method with fossil fuels and will continue to enable Benwit as a primary fuel for conventional vehicles, in line with the Indonesian government's plan to implement B50 biodiesel in July.This innovation aligns with several of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly Goal 7 on affordable and clean energy, and Goal 12 on responsible consumption and production.  A comprehensive Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) conducted by the research team indicates that the production process generates a minimal carbon footprint in comparison with conventional fossil fuels.The development of Benwit has also received full support from the Indonesian Minister of Agriculture, Amran Sulaiman. In the near future, collaboration with PT Perkebunan Nusantara (PTPN) PalmCo IV is expected to commence following the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with ITS.Prof. Dr. (HC) Ir. Bambang Pramujati, S.T., M.Sc.Eng., Ph.D., and Rector of ITS, underscored the timeliness of Benwit, noting that the current global situation offers a strategic opportunity for the government to accelerate the transition toward alternative energy sources, while the use of domestic palm oil reserves could help mitigate the effects of external fuel crises.Benwit bio-based fuel products, for agriculturl machinery and for convetional vehicles, represent a potentially significant policy instrument for advancing the transition to renewable energy, while working to reinforce national energy security.About ITSEstablished in 1960, Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember (ITS) is one of Indonesia’s leading universities, with a strong emphasis on science, engineering, and innovation.

INNSBRUCK, AUSTRIA, May 1, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - A global consortium of 64 experts (72 entities, 5 continents) unveiled two coordinated consensus plus policy brief reports, outlining a science‑driven roadmap to confront escalating health crises and to tackle the growing burden of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs-including cardiovascular diseases, cancer, diabetes, etc.: 75% of global deaths; 82% in low-/middle income countries; 90% of all death in European region).The centerpiece is HEAL-Healthy Eating & Active Living, ideally whole‑food plant‑predominant/vegetarian-vegan diets & daily exercise outdoors/active mobility-as the minimum, first‑line standard in health and care. The authors urge immediate action on Prevention-over-Treatment and reforming education and human‑relevant science (drug failure rate from animal studies is 90-95%, and as high as 99.6% for Alzheimer disease), with a rapid shift from disease‑centered reaction to person‑centered, lifestyle‑first cure and care.Figure 1. HEAL means choosing a whole-food, plant-predominant (ideally vegan) diets coupled with daily exercise outdoors/in nature to kick-start better health.

As childhood-entrenched health literacy lasts a lifetime; embedding HEAL from primary to tertiary education is the policy priority of our generation." -Lead author Katharina Wirnitzer | PHT, University of Innsbruck & CCCTIMFigure 2. Katharina Wirnitzer/Keynote on Vegan Diet in Sports. Credit: ©Katharina Wirnitzer.Why change is imperativeThe paradox: Despite rising health spending and scientific advances, public health gains lag while ever-growing NCDs. The expert panel offers 101 consensus statements and a 10‑step policy roadmap to act across the lifespan-from individual behavior to population‑level change.Why HEAL, and why now: HEAL combines Healthy Eating (whole‑food, plant‑predominant; preferably vegetarian/vegan) with Active Living (regular, ideally daily, including outdoor activity and active mobility). Evidence shows synergistic benefits beyond either alone, reducing reliance on drugs and surgery while improving resilience and sustainability of health systems.Prevention-First (3:1): The reports recommend prioritizing prevention, health maintenance, and health promotion over treatment by 3:1 (Figure 3), making healthy choices the easy, first‑line intervention and reserving medicalized treatment for specific indications.Education and workforce: Embed HEAL from primary through tertiary education and continuously upskill healthcare and education professionals to deliver evidence‑based lifestyle counseling, routine assessment, and monitoring. Improve meal standards and support active mobility in schools and public spaces.Human‑relevant science: Accelerate the transition to non‑animal, human‑relevant methods for basic and preclinical research and for efficacy, safety and toxicity testing through funding priorities, validation, and regulatory adoption.Policy roadmap: Apply Health in All Policies (HiAP) to link individual choices with systemic supports (Figure 4); invest in supportive defaults (healthy public catering, active transport, public‑space design, community HEAL programs); embed HEAL in curricula; and track outcomes with robust evaluation to scale what works."Every dollar/euro invested in evidence-based prevention saves multiples in treatment. HEAL is the smartest first investment a health system can make." -Bernd Haditsch | ÖGK - Austrian Health Insurance Fund, Prevention Unit"Obesity is a disease with powerful drivers. HEAL gives every patient a proven, first-line foundation to reclaim their health." -Fatima Cody Stanford | Harvard Medical School & MGH"A doctor who cannot counsel patients on the Power of Lifestyle, especially on food and movement, is only half-equipped. Lifestyle education in medical school is the missing foundation of modern medicine. Helping our patients to eat a more plant-strong diet is the most powerful healing medicine we can prescribe." -Michael Klaper | Moving Medicine Forward"Plant-forward diets provide a powerful opportunity to concurrently improve health and wellbeing for people, farmed animals and the environment." -Andrew Knight | Griffith UniversityFigure 3. Four areas-of-action, balanced 3:1, to achieve lifelong health. Credit: ©Katharina Wirnitzer."Given its cost-effectiveness, Traditional, Integrative, and Complementary Medicine will be the evidence-based mainstream of tomorrow's global healthcare." -Tomáš Pfeiffer | ITCIM & SANATOR"Treatment alone will not sustain health systems. HEAL connects prevention, lifestyle medicine and integrative care to advance salutogenesis on a planetary scale. We must invest far more in creating health." -Georg Seifert | WHO CC & CCCTIM, Charité Universitäts mediz in Berlin"The science clearly shows that, when it comes to human health, animal protection is a win-win. Given human health's complexity, and since animal testing virtually fails to cure human diseases, human-relevant methods already outperform animal experimentation and must therefore be implemented with priority in science, with funds going to human-focused research. Citizens in the EU and US have spoken clearly in favor of this transition. HEAL can prevent many diseases, avoiding the need for animal studies altogether." -Merel Ritskes-Hoitinga | Universities Aarhus & Utrecht; Doris Wilflingseder | Vetmed Uni Vienna, Aysha Akhtar | Center for Contemporary Sciences, Corina Gericke & Gaby Neumann | Doctors Against Animal ExperimentsFigure 4. Systemic application of HEAL to reach target groups and improve personal and public health across micro (individuals/families), meso (communities), and macro (state/government/federal policy) levels, ensuring optimal vertical and horizontal permeability and integration.

PHILADELPHIA, PA, May 1, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Datavault AI Inc. ("Datavault AI" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:DVLT), a provider of data monetization, credentialing, digital engagement, and real-world asset ("RWA") tokenization technologies, and CyberCatch Holdings, Inc. ("CyberCatch") (TSXV:CYBE) (OTCQB:CYBHF), a cybersecurity company offering a patented, AI-enabled platform for continuous compliance and cyber risk mitigation, today announced they have entered into a binding letter of intent (the "LOI") under which Datavault AI and CyberCatch will enter into a definitive agreement for Datavault AI to acquire 100% of CyberCatch in an all-stock transaction structured as a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).Under the LOI and subject to a definitive agreement, Datavault AI will acquire 100% of CyberCatch's issued and outstanding common shares (being approximately 26.8 million shares) in exchange for approximately 49.9 million newly issued shares of Datavault AI common stock (the "Datavault AI Shares") at CAD $5.11 per CyberCatch share, which implies an aggregate value to CyberCatch's issued and outstanding common shares of CAD $136,843,820. All issued and outstanding CyberCatch securities convertible into or exercisable for CyberCatch common shares will be exchanged for Datavault AI Shares on a cashless exercise basis at a deemed value of USD $2.00 per Datavault AI Share. Upon closing of the transaction, subject to customary board, stock exchange, and any necessary regulatory and shareholder approvals, it is anticipated that Datavault AI stockholders will hold approximately 92.48% and CyberCatch shareholders approximately 7.52% of the equity of Datavault AI, on a non-fully diluted basis. It is anticipated that CyberCatch will operate as a subsidiary of Datavault AI from San Diego, California, and CyberCatch founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer Sai Huda will serve as President of the subsidiary, reporting to Nathaniel T. Bradley, CEO of Datavault AI.Strategic RationaleThe combination is positioned at the intersection of two of cybersecurity's largest secular markets. According to Gartner, worldwide end-user spending on information security is projected to reach $240 billion in 2026, and Gartner separately projects the AI-amplified security segment will reach $160 billion by 2029, up from $49 billion in 2025. According to IBM's 2025 Cost of a Data Breach Report, the average U.S. data breach now costs $10.22 million, with a global average of $4.44 million.Regulatory tailwinds are converging with that demand picture. Phase 1 of the U.S. Department of Defense's Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification ("CMMC") program took effect on November 10, 2025, with mandatory third-party C3PAO assessments for Level 2 contracts beginning in November 2026 and full enforcement extending across approximately 220,000 Defense Industrial Base contractors and subcontractors. CyberCatch's platform is purpose-built to address that mandate in defense, HIPAA in healthcare, NIST 800-171 in manufacturing, NIST CSF 2.0 in financial services, among others.The combination is also positioned for the post-quantum security era. Google has set 2029 as its internal deadline to migrate authentication systems to quantum-resistant cryptography. Separately, Google Quantum AI research demonstrated that the elliptic curve cryptography protecting many digital signatures and authentication systems could be broken by a superconducting quantum computer with fewer than 500,000 physical qubits, an order of magnitude lower than previous estimates. CyberCatch is converting its patent-pending, multi-authority, attribute-based encryption with revocation ("MARS-MABE") technology to attain quantum-resistance, and combining MARS-MABE with continuous agentic AI penetration testing creates a next-generation cybersecurity stack applicable across healthcare, defense, manufacturing, financial services, and energy.About CyberCatch's Platform and LeadershipCyberCatch's patented, AI-enabled continuous cybersecurity compliance and risk mitigation solution:Uses generative AI to ensure all legally required controls are in place and calculates a Cyber Hygiene ScoreUses agentic AI to continuously simulate threat-actor tactics, techniques, and procedures to perform penetration tests and calculates a Cyber Breach ScoreDetects gaps for prompt remediation before a threat actor can exploit and be successfulThe platform tests cybersecurity controls continuously from three dimensions, outside-in, inside-out, and social engineering, mapping to NIST CSF 2.0, NIST 800-171, CMMC 2.0, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and other regulated frameworks, replacing once-a-year manual penetration tests with continuous agentic AI penetration testing using specialized skill-set agents.MARS-MABE provides several distinct advantages over current RSA and AES-256 encryption, such as:Access to data is provided only if fine-grained user attributes are metAccess to users can be limited to fine-grained data subsetsInstant revocation of user access to data subsets, eliminating the need to re-encrypt the entire data set and providing speed and significant cost savingsCyberCatch is led by founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer Sai Huda, a globally recognized cybersecurity expert, author of the bestselling Next Level Cybersecurity, co-author of Canada's National Cybersecurity Standard, and inventor of USPTO Patent No. 11,297,094, "Automated and Continuous Cybersecurity Assessment with Measurement and Scoring." He is the former founder and CEO of Compliance Coach, which was acquired by FIS, a FORTUNE 500 company, where he served as GM, Risk, Information Security, and Compliance Solutions.CyberCatch's board and advisory board include:Tom Ridge, former special assistant to U.S. President, first Secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and two-term Governor of PennsylvaniaDr. Marv Langston, former Director of Information Systems at U.S. DARPA and Cybersecurity Chief, U.S. NavyScott Tait, former U.S. Navy Commander and National Security Advisor at the Joint Chiefs at the U.S. PentagonCyberCatch's customers span the U.S. defense supply chain, healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, education, and public sectors, and the Company's capabilities were extended through the February 2026 acquisition of multi-authority attribute-based encryption technology, now branded MARS-MABE, and through 2026 reseller and referral partnerships such as with Speridian Technologies and other multiple reseller partners to U.S. government agencies.Added Strategic Benefit: Platform Integration and Cyber Defense Layer Across the Datavault AI StackFollowing closing, CyberCatch's AI-enabled Software-as-a-Service platform is also expected to operate as the cybersecurity and continuous-compliance layer across Datavault AI's existing technology suite, including:DataValue®, DataScore®, and Information Data Exchange® (IDE®) running natively on Available Infrastructure's SanQtum AI quantum-resistant, zero-trust edge platform across 1,000 urban micro-edge neocloud sites planned in 100+ U.S. cities by year-end 2026Acoustic Sciences division technologies (WiSA®, ADIO®, Sumerian®) and IDE® deployments serving sports, entertainment, biotech, education, fintech, real estate, healthcare, and energy customersFederal and regulated-industry customer workloads where continuous compliance attestation against NIST, CMMC, ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA, and PCI DSS frameworks is increasingly a precondition for procurement, audit, and renewalThe proposed acquisition is intended to give Datavault AI customers and partners an integrated path from secure compute through AI-driven data analytics, with continuous attestation at every layer.Management Commentary"Cybersecurity is no longer a separate stack from data and AI - it is the precondition for both. CyberCatch's continuous compliance platform is expected to provide another strategic advantage by adding to DataValue®, DataScore®, and the IDE® a real-time risk and compliance signal at every node of our quantum-secured edge fleet, from federal contractors to enterprise data customers," said Nathaniel T. Bradley, CEO of Datavault AI."Datavault AI's quantum-ready edge platform is exactly the next-generation infrastructure our customers and the marketplace in critical sectors such as in defense, healthcare, and financial services need cybersecurity built into. Joining Datavault AI gives them a clear path to a unified secure-data platform with continuous compliance and cyber risk mitigation built in," said Sai Huda, founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer of CyberCatch.Transaction OverviewUnder the binding LOI, holders of CyberCatch's common shares will receive newly issued common shares of Datavault AI as described above, with CyberCatch becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Datavault AI. The Datavault AI Shares to be issued are anticipated to be issued in reliance on the exemption from registration under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), provided by Section 3(a)(10), and applicable state securities law exemptions.The transaction is subject to negotiation and execution of a definitive agreement, completion of due diligence, board approvals of both companies, requisite CyberCatch shareholder approval, applicable court approval of the plan of arrangement (British Columbia), and approvals of The Nasdaq Stock Market and the TSX Venture Exchange, as well as other customary closing conditions. The parties have agreed to negotiate a definitive agreement during a 45-day mutual exclusivity period.About Datavault AIDatavault AI™ (NASDAQ:DVLT) is a pioneer in AI-driven data experiences, valuation, and monetization of assets in the Web 3.0 environment.

SINGAPORE, May 1, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Choosing from the many Credit Cards available in Singapore can feel overwhelming, especially when each option highlights different rewards, fees, and benefits. A card that aligns with your lifestyle can help you manage expenses better while offering value through rewards, convenience, and flexibility. Whether your spending leans towards dining, travel, shopping, or daily essentials, understanding a few key factors can help narrow down choices that match how you live and spend.Here are some important factors that can help you evaluate Credit Cards based on real lifestyle needs rather than just promotional offers.1. Understand your monthly spending patternsBefore comparing Credit Cards, it can help to look closely at where your money usually goes each month. Some Singaporeans may opt to spend on dining and food delivery, while others may prioritise groceries, transport, or online shopping. Identifying these patterns can help you shortlist Credit Cards that reward the categories you use most often. This approach can make rewards feel more relevant, rather than spread across benefits you rarely use.2. Evaluate rewards structure and earning ratesCredit Cards offer rewards in different forms, such as cashback, reward points, or air miles, and each structure suits different spending habits. Cashback Cards may appeal to those who prefer straightforward savings, such as earning rebates on eligible categories, often capped at a monthly limit. Rewards or miles cards may suit frequent travellers or shoppers who enjoy redeeming points later.It's also worth checking the base earn rate, which is what you earn on regular spending, and the bonus earn rates offered for certain categories like dining, travel, or online shopping. Many cards also set bonus caps, meaning the higher rewards only apply up to a certain amount of spending each month. Understanding these details can help you see how much you can realistically earn based on your usual spending.3. Consider annual fees versus actual benefitsAnnual fees for Credit Cards in Singapore can range from around SGD 150 to over SGD 500. Some premium cards offer perks such as lounge access, dining privileges, or travel insurance. However, these additional benefits provide better value if you use them often enough to offset the higher fee. Many cards also provide fee waivers for the first year, which can help users test whether the card fits their lifestyle. Comparing the annual fee against how realistically you will use the perks can help determine whether the overall value feels balanced for your spending habits.4. Assess eligibility and income requirementsIn Singapore, most Credit Cards have minimum annual income requirements, usually starting from SGD 30,000 for citizens and permanent residents, and higher for foreigners. Premium cards may require annual incomes of SGD 120,000 or more. Understanding eligibility early can help avoid unnecessary applications and credit checks. Choosing a card aligned with your income range can also help ensure smoother approval and manageable credit limits that fit comfortably within your financial situation.5. Review interest rates and repayment flexibilityWhile Credit Cards can offer convenience and rewards, interest rates in Singapore often range between 25% and 28% per annum if balances are not paid in full. Some cards offer repayment features, such as instalment plans that split larger purchases into smaller monthly payments, or balance transfer options that can help consolidate existing credit card outstanding balances at a lower interest rate for a promotional period. Looking at repayment features, interest calculations, and payment flexibility can help support responsible usage, especially during months with higher expenses or unexpected costs.6. Check overseas usage and foreign currency feesFor those who travel or shop internationally, foreign currency transaction fees are an important consideration. Most Credit Cards in Singapore charge around 3.25% on overseas transactions. Some travel-focused cards may offer lower fees or even 0% FX fees on eligible transactions, while others may provide higher miles earn rates for foreign spend. Evaluating how often international spending occurs can help decide whether such features can add value or if a general-purpose card works just as well.Final thoughtsChoosing the right Credit Card is less about chasing the biggest offer and more about finding a match for your lifestyle and spending habits. By considering rewards, fees, perks, and usability through a practical lens, Credit Cards can become a supportive financial tool rather than a confusing product. Taking time to compare options thoughtfully can help ensure the card you select continues to add value as your lifestyle evolves.Disclaimer: This content is published by iQuanti Singapore Pte.

MOSCOW, May 1, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - The 2nd Open Dialogue "The Future of the World: A New Platform for Global Growth" took place in Russia, bringing together experts and young researchers from more than 40 countries who proposed ideas on the development of the economy, technology, education, and the environment. The key unifying principle of the event was a focus on people, international cooperation, and the search for new models of global growth through dialogue and the practical implementation of ideas. The large-scale three-day program at the Russia National Centre has concluded, combining expert discussions, presentations by authors of the best essays from around the world, and informal communication with experts.According to the official remarks, the Open Dialogue has achieved a global footprint that covers the entire planet."Experts, business leaders, and researchers from 120 countries took part in the essay and creative works competition, including representatives from Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Europe, Australia, North and South America. All authors and researchers, with diverse experiences and perspectives, were united by a strong and bold idea: to form a shared understanding of the future — the future of a world entering an era of profound structural change. It is evident that no country can develop in isolation, at the expense of other states or to their detriment. Furthermore, modern global challenges require a joint response and collective efforts. This means that the model of global development will be sustainable and fair only if it is based on the principles of equality and mutual respect, and takes into account the interests of all countries," the honorary guest of the event stated.According to the Russian leader, a multipolar architecture of global development is being formed before our eyes. Within it, an important role is played by states that understand and value national sovereignty.The results of the large-scale event were summarized by Russian economist Maxim Oreshkin: "Russia, in a number of areas, is an advanced country in terms of the development of digital platform solutions. Our approach is one of joint development. When Russian digital platforms enter other countries' markets, they bring data localization, local partner involvement, training for local personnel, and the development of their own competencies in platform solution development. Russia comes to develop together, not to collect colonial rent from countries that lack access to technological solutions. We are in favor of developing together."Maxim Oreshkin noted that the reach of the Open Dialogue will continue to grow each year. According to him, significant attention is being paid to the stage of implementing the ideas proposed in the essays. A mentorship format has been introduced — Russian businesses and international companies are beginning to work with essayists, involve them in their projects, and help bring their ideas to life.At the 2nd Open Dialogue, the best essay authors were identified in four areas: "Investing in People," "Investing in Connectivity," "Investing in Technology," and "Investing in the Environment."The winner in the "Investing in Technology" track was Aya Arfaoui, a student of Mohammed V University in Rabat, Morocco. She raised the issue of the digital sovereignty of developing countries. According to her, international institutions do not provide sufficient influence in regulating the digital space.Solomon Gardie, a postgraduate student at Addis Ababa University in Ethiopia, became the winner in the "Investing in Connectivity" track. His essay focused on connectivity and the mobility of sovereign data. He proposed a system in which data is processed and anonymized before cross-border transfer, and only in this form can it be used for the common good. He also noted that, within cooperation in the BRICS+ framework, one of the first areas could be healthcare, particularly epidemiological monitoring and disease control.In the "Investing in the Environment" track, the winner was Soumya Bhowmick, a research fellow at the Observer Research Foundation (India). In his presentation, he stated that for almost 100 years, the world has focused on measuring GDP, which does not reflect a country's real wealth.The winner of the "Investing in People" track was Lubinda Haabazoka from Zambia. In his speech, he noted that for real convergence among countries of the Global South, not only declarations of multipolarity are needed, but also practical changes in key systems of interaction — primarily in education, which directly affects opportunities for cooperation and knowledge exchange.The future should be built around the individual, their health, agency, and a long, meaningful life, rather than around technologies and outdated systems, believes Dr. Selina Neri, co-founder, CEO, and dean of Future Readiness Academy (UAE), and an expert of the 2nd Open Dialogue in the "Investing in People" track. According to her, this requires new approaches to education, work, and technology development that focus on human flourishing, sovereignty, and the practical implementation of ideas rather than copying ineffective models.More than 1,600 authors from all continents submitted their works to participate in the 2nd Open Dialogue. Seventy-five essay authors hold academic degrees. The conclusions drawn from the discussions will be reviewed at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum and will be reflected in its business program. Essayists and experts will also be engaged in activities within the BRICS platform and involved in preparations for the Russia–Africa Summit.Social LinksTelegram: https://t.me/gowithRussiaMedia ContactsBrand: Russia National CentreContact: Media teamEmail: pressa@russia.ruWebsite: https://en.russia.ru  Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.
