In his report, Vice-President of the RAS, Academician V.V. Kozlov gave an account of the preparation of the draft Program for Basic Scientific Research in the Russian Federation for the Long Term, specified the legal grounds for this document, and addressed the issue of the resourcing of program implementation. V.V. Kozlov noted that the 15-year planning horizon looks unrealistic with regards to basic scientific research. Therefore, the inter-departmental working group that is preparing the draft program proposes analyzing the results every 5 years and amending the document, if necessary. He also emphasized that Russia will not be able to make it into the Top 5 leading countries in priority scientific areas unless research funding is significantly increased-by approximately by 2.5 times.
