      July 24, 2026 The Ural Federal University named after the first president of Russia B. N. Yeltsin (UrFU) has been included in a new "blacklist" of research organizations. In addition, the list includes 130 academic and research institutions from Russia, China, and Iran.

      According to TASS, the restrictions affected 32 Russian institutes and universities. Washington accuses them of unauthorized transfer of American technologies. Besides UrFU, the list includes Moscow State University, Bauman Moscow State Technical University, the Kuznetsov Naval Academy, the Kurchatov Institute, the Moscow Aviation Institute, MIPT, HSE University, and the "Marine Underwater Weapons - Hydropribor" concern.
