Implementing the Dubna Radioactive Ion Beams project (DRIBs) a new, efficient fragment separator ACCULINNA-2 was installed recently at the primary beam line of the U-400M cyclotron in the Flerov Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions, JINR. Since 2017, radioactive beams have been obtained from this facility. The motivation for the new RIB complex, together with an overview of the RIB research conducted in Dubna and its correlation with the worldwide RIB activities, are given in this paper. The status of the ACCULINNA-2 setup, the nearest prospects for completing its equipment, and the planned first-stage experiments are presented.
