[00:00:08] We will introduce you to Belarusians who
[00:00:10] consciously exchanged the city for the village. At the age of
[00:00:14] 17, she lost her mother. My mother
[00:00:17] got cancer, she burned out very quickly. Well, of course, for
[00:00:21] our family, for me, a young girl, it
[00:00:24] was a shock. Over time, she got over it and decided not
[00:00:28] to become a city dweller, but to return to her native
[00:00:32] village after her studies. I am just like that, all of Belarus is my home,
[00:00:35] and I can't imagine any other life. Most of
[00:00:39] the time her husband is working in the north, she raises her two-year-old
[00:00:43] child alone. They believed in themselves, their
[00:00:46] strength, and achieved results in their favorite
[00:00:49] business. She moved to the village not to
[00:00:52] find herself, she moved to
[00:00:55] survive. Doctors advised me to leave the
[00:00:59] city.
[00:01:03] She moved quickly, but with taste. It wasn't a
[00:01:06] move, it was an escape. I gathered the necessary
[00:01:10] things, I went to the market and bought chickens with
[00:01:13] ducklings. I met my husband under very interesting
[00:01:16] circumstances. I am returning with a bucket, Tolya
[00:01:20] is walking towards me, and I
[00:01:24] decided that he wanted to kiss me. Watch the project "I'm from the village"

[00:01:34] Belarus on the world
[00:01:35] stage,
[00:01:38] hospitable and
[00:01:39] friendly,
[00:01:44] initiative
[00:01:46] and creative,
[00:01:50] businesslike and
[00:01:51] industrial,
[00:01:55] intellectual and
[00:01:57] technological.
[00:02:01] Picturesque,
[00:02:03] monumental,
[00:02:07] sporty and
[00:02:08] festive.
[00:02:12] We show Belarus daily,
[00:02:16] around the clock, in open access all over
[00:02:19] the world. Belarus
[00:02:23] 24. Making Belarus
[00:02:26] closer.
[00:04:47] relevant news in the country and the world, watch our traditional
[00:04:51] weekly project. In
[00:04:53] the section Your Choice, we will get acquainted with important news from the world of
[00:04:57] economics, public life, and culture.
[00:05:06] Belarusian breeders have developed a new variety of sunflower that can
[00:05:10] compete with southern leaders. Its yield reaches almost
[00:05:14] 50 centners, and oil content exceeds
[00:05:16] 52%. The crop is adapted to Belarusian frosts
[00:05:20] and ripens 20 days earlier than analogues. Scientists are working on the creation
[00:05:24] of Belarusian gold at the Institute of Genetics and Cytology
[00:05:27] of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus. Here, careful selection
[00:05:32] and crossing are carried out, thanks to which researchers have already managed to
[00:05:35] obtain over 150 lines of promising
[00:05:38] hybrids. The revenue of the Great Stone Industrial Park
[00:05:42] last year exceeded half a billion dollars. By 2030,
[00:05:46] they plan to triple the staff to 12,000 employees and
[00:05:50] the number of residents to 270. Such
[00:05:53] dynamics are the best proof that Belarusian-Chinese
[00:05:56] cooperation is gaining momentum. Not only large-scale production, but also
[00:06:00] trade mechanisms play a key role in this.
[00:06:03] For example, the Belarusian Universal Commodity Exchange is becoming a reliable
[00:06:06] bridge for direct contacts without intermediaries. Exports by
[00:06:10] 2030 should overcome the half-billion
[00:06:13] dollar mark. The most friendly, strong families of Belarus
[00:06:17] are once again competing for the title of best. This week, the regional
[00:06:20] stage of the republican "Family of the Year" contest started. In total,
[00:06:24] 632 families took part in the qualifying rounds, and
[00:06:28] the first finalists are already being determined in the Mogilev region.
[00:06:31] We remind you that the grand final will take place in Minsk on October 10, where
[00:06:35] the winners will receive diplomas and cash prizes. The competition
[00:06:39] is held for the seventh time and is designed to strengthen the institution of the family, as well as
[00:06:42] to popularize traditional family
[00:06:44] values.
[00:06:47] The Belarusian Academy of Music has launched a new large-scale educational project,
[00:06:50] the Youth Symphony Orchestra of Belarus. According to the results
[00:06:54] of the republican competitive selection, 29 talented
[00:06:57] musicians from specialized colleges from all regions of the country joined
[00:07:01] the combined ensemble. These days, the participants are looking forward to intense
[00:07:04] rehearsals, practical classes and master classes from leading
[00:07:08] stage masters. The result of this busy week will be open
[00:07:12] concerts, programs at iconic capital venues. The first
[00:07:15] debut performance of the orchestra is already scheduled for this Saturday,
[00:07:18] August 8, at the City Hall in the upper
[00:07:21] city. The National Art Museum
[00:07:25] expanded its inclusive project "Animated Paintings" for deaf
[00:07:28] and hard-of-hearing visitors. Here, guides will be replaced by
[00:07:32] sign language tours in Russian and Belarusian sign languages, available through
[00:07:36] 25 special QR codes. The project has existed for
[00:07:39] more than 5 years and covers not only paintings, but also
[00:07:42] sculptures. However, the real peak of popularity occurred recently
[00:07:46] after the appearance in the program of the famous portrait of Marc Chagall by
[00:07:50] Yuda Lepen and the icon Christ
[00:07:52] Pantocrator.
[00:07:54] Next, we will find out what significant dates the outgoing
[00:07:57] week will be remembered for. Ahead are two stories of a unique creative
[00:08:01] path, as well as a chronicle of the founding of branches of the Yanka Kupala Literary Museum
[00:08:05] in Vyazanka and
[00:08:07] Levki.
[00:08:14] On August 4, 1945,
[00:08:17] branches of the Yanka Kupala Literary Museum were founded
[00:08:20] in Vyazanka and Levki. In 1972,
[00:08:24] a memorial Kupala nature reserve was created
[00:08:27] on a territory of 21 hectares, where
[00:08:30] the house where Yanka Kupala was born,
[00:08:34] outbuildings, a monument to the poet by
[00:08:38] sculptor Zair Azgur, boulders
[00:08:40] with lines from
[00:08:44] Yanka Kupala's works carved on them. On the poet's birthday,
[00:08:47] poetry festivals are held in the reserve, as well as
[00:08:50] ritual events, Kupalle, calling of
[00:08:53] spring. The memorial complex Levki includes
[00:08:57] Kupala's dacha, a chauffeur's house, a hotel,
[00:09:00] outbuildings, a garage where
[00:09:04] the writer's Chevrolet car is exhibited,
[00:09:06] as well as the monument "Autumn of the Poet."
[00:09:10] The literary and documentary part of the
[00:09:12] exhibition is located in the building of the former office
[00:09:16] of the Kopos forestry, where in the summer of
[00:09:19] 1935 Yanka Kupala lived.
[00:09:22] The main exhibition object is
[00:09:25] the reconstructed dacha of Yanka Kupala,
[00:09:28] erected for the thirtieth anniversary of the poet's creative activity
[00:09:32] on the site of the house that burned down
[00:09:35] during the war. On August 5,
[00:09:39] 1946, in a village
[00:09:44] in the Brest region, in a large peasant family,
[00:09:48] the future theater and film actor, teacher, theatrical
[00:09:51] figure, Honored Artist of the BSSR, Vladimir
[00:09:55] Mishchenchuk, was born. From childhood, the boy dreamed of the stage,
[00:09:58] however, after school, he tried to enter a medical
[00:10:02] institute, but failed the exams. As a result,
[00:10:05] Vladimir Andreevich graduated from the Minsk
[00:10:09] Theater and Art Institute. After being assigned to
[00:10:12] the Grodno Regional Drama Theater, he brilliantly played Pan
[00:10:16] Bykovsky in Pavlinka, Tsibulka in the production "Pill
[00:10:19] Under the Tongue," Semenov Pishchik,
[00:10:23] Sad. Here his unique
[00:10:26] organizational talent was revealed: at 27 years old,
[00:10:30] Mishchenchuk became the director of the Grodno
[00:10:33] Drama Theater, the youngest theater director
[00:10:36] in the USSR. It was then that the actor received
[00:10:40] the title of Honored Artist. Returning to
[00:10:43] Minsk, Vladimir Andreevich linked his life with
[00:10:46] theatrical pedagogy, training a galaxy of bright stars
[00:10:49] at the Belarusian State Academy of Arts.
[00:10:53] The celebrated master has more than
[00:10:55] 100 roles in theater and cinema. He is the
[00:10:59] holder of the honorary badge "For Contribution to
[00:11:02] the Development of Culture of Belarus," the medal
[00:11:05] of Francis Skaryna, and a laureate of the special prize
[00:11:08] of the President.
[00:11:10] On August 6,
[00:11:14] 1938, in Marina Gorka,
[00:11:17] Minsk region, People's Artist
[00:11:20] of the BSSR and USSR, Honored Art Worker
[00:11:24] of our country,
[00:11:37] Igor Luchenok's creative path began in
[00:11:40] the sixties. His graduation work at
[00:11:43] the conservatory was the Cantata Kurgan, based on
[00:11:46] Yanka Kupala's poem of the same name. In
[00:11:49] 1966, at the first
[00:11:53] all-Union competition of Soviet...
[00:11:58] The young composer Igor Luchenok, poet Mikhail Yasen, and singer
[00:12:02] Viktor Vuyachich became winners among
[00:12:04] famous authors and performers. Without Luchenok's
[00:12:08] songs, it is impossible to imagine the musical
[00:12:11] life not only of our country. For more than a decade,
[00:12:15] the clock of the Minsk City Hall has been striking the melody
[00:12:18] of his song about Minsk, which has become the anthem
[00:12:21] of the city.
[00:12:55] The first through freight train "Slavic Caravan" departed from
[00:12:59] Orsha to Uzbekistan. At the invitation of the President of Belarus,
[00:13:01] Zubronok receives children from
[00:13:05] Southeast
[00:13:06] Asia.
[00:13:10] Belarusian-Chinese relations have withstood the tests of international
[00:13:13] turbulence and entered the best period in history.
[00:13:17] This was stated by the Chinese Ambassador to Belarus at a solemn event on the occasion
[00:13:21] of the 105th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party
[00:13:24] of China and the 99th anniversary of the formation
[00:13:27] of the People's Liberation Army. Behind the diplomatic protocol
[00:13:31] is a concrete economic agenda, strengthening
[00:13:34] strategic partnership. Last year, the total trade
[00:13:37] volume between China and Belarus already amounted to
[00:13:40] more than eight and eight billion US
[00:13:43] dollars. I want to tell you a secret that in the first half of this
[00:13:47] year we already have a large
[00:13:49] increase, somewhere around 30%
[00:13:53] increase. Therefore.
[00:14:13] Belarus and China.
[00:14:15] Belarus and Tajikistan signed a roadmap for cooperation until
[00:14:19] 2031. The ceremony took place during
[00:14:22] the 19th meeting of the state commission on
[00:14:26] trade and economic cooperation in Brest. The meeting
[00:14:29] discussed the state and prospects for the development of trade, economic,
[00:14:33] investment, and interregional cooperation,
[00:14:36] industrial cooperation, interaction in various areas
[00:14:39] of the economy and social sphere.
[00:14:43] The first through freight train Slavic Caravan departed from Orsha to
[00:14:47] Uzbekistan. A solemn event was held at the Orsha
[00:14:50] Vostochnaya station. The train will follow the route
[00:14:53] Belarus, Russia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan. The train consists of wagons
[00:14:57] with woodworking products, food cargo, and
[00:15:01] compound feeds. In the future, it is planned to expand the range
[00:15:04] of goods and include wagons with containers delivered
[00:15:08] by road, which will allow to take advantage of all
[00:15:11] the benefits of multimodal transportation. Already
[00:15:14] today, they passed through this route Belarus
[00:15:17] Uzbekistan, but we, with our Uzbek colleagues,
[00:15:20] have thought out a completely different service, it is of higher
[00:15:23] quality. The point is that the train, without
[00:15:27] breaking up, without additional stops,
[00:15:30] will pass through the territory of Russia, Kazakhstan and arrive in
[00:15:33] Uzbekistan. Along this entire route there are reference points, at which...
[00:16:43] Research in the field of traditional Chinese medicine,
[00:16:46] physiology, molecular biology and biochemistry, as well as
[00:16:50] translational science.
[00:16:53] A large delegation of children from Laos, Myanmar, and Vietnam
[00:16:56] arrived for recreation in Belarus at the invitation of the President. The National Children's
[00:17:00] Educational and Health Center Zubrenok on the shores of Naroch,
[00:17:03] a platform for studying Belarusian traditions and culture. The program
[00:17:07] for vacationers includes sports, creativity, excursions, and health improvement. We
[00:17:11] are hosting children this year from ten
[00:17:14] countries. Delegations from Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, from
[00:17:17] Algeria, Egypt, India, and Zimbabwe have already
[00:17:21] visited us. Currently, delegations from
[00:17:25] Vietnam, Myanmar, and Laos
[00:17:28] are undergoing health procedures. And in August,
[00:17:32] we are expecting a large delegation from the People's Republic
[00:17:35] of China.
[00:17:46] Belarusian children are very friendly, I have already
[00:17:49] made friends with them, they are very active, kind, easy to
[00:17:53] get in touch with, there are also interesting sports games and
[00:17:56] competitions in the camp, such events unite us. The invitation
[00:18:00] of children from other countries is organized annually since 2017.
[00:18:04] Financial resources are allocated on behalf of the head.
[00:18:17] You are in for a journey to one of the architectural pearls
[00:18:20] of Belarus, the Great Choral Synagogue in Grodno. She went through difficult
[00:18:24] and tragic times during the Great Patriotic War, but
[00:18:28] today it is not just a functioning temple, but a unique museum
[00:18:31] of history. Details right now in the section "Place on
[00:18:35] the Map".
[00:18:45] The building of the first main synagogue in Grodno was built in the second
[00:18:49] half of the 15th century according to the design of the Italian architect
[00:18:53] Santi Gucci. The first synagogue stood for about a century,
[00:18:56] and then burned down under unexplained circumstances.
[00:19:00] Soon, a new stone one was built on this site, which
[00:19:03] stood much longer than the previous one, but was also
[00:19:06] destroyed. In 1899,
[00:19:09] the appearance of the synagogue in the 70s of the 19th
[00:19:12] century is captured in the drawings of the famous artist
[00:19:16] Napoleon Orda. The exterior of the building that we
[00:19:19] see today was formed in the early 20th century in
[00:19:23] the Russian Art Nouveau style. The white hall retained features
[00:19:26] of late Baroque, late 16th century, early
[00:19:30] 14th century. The synagogue went through difficult times during
[00:19:34] the Great Patriotic War. Here was
[00:19:37] number one hall was used as a collection point
[00:19:40] for Jews, and it was their last refuge.
[00:19:44] After the war, the building was badly damaged
[00:19:47] and neglected. In Soviet times, it was not
[00:19:51] used for its intended purpose. First it was adapted for
[00:19:54] a warehouse, and later for artists' workshops. And
[00:19:58] only in the early nineties was the synagogue returned to the Jewish
[00:20:01] religious community and large-scale restoration
[00:20:04] and reconstruction work began. By the way, it is interesting that
[00:20:08] the first money for the restoration of the synagogue was transferred by one
[00:20:12] of those who survived the Grodno Ghetto. The restoration
[00:20:15] of the facades and interior decoration of the building
[00:20:17] continues. Today, this is one of the few synagogues
[00:20:21] in Belarus where a museum also operates. The Synagogue Museum
[00:20:25] is a branch of the Grodno State Museum
[00:20:28] of the History of Religion. Here,
[00:20:30] they tell the story of the construction of the Jewish sanctuary, its
[00:20:34] restoration, the history of the Jewish community,
[00:20:38] organize exhibitions, and conduct
[00:20:40] excursions.
[00:20:42] The Grodno Synagogue in the center of the city is one of the oldest in
[00:20:46] Europe, listed in the list of historical and cultural
[00:20:49] values of the Republic of Belarus and is
[00:20:52] an important monument to the history of the Jewish people. Here,
[00:20:56] services are regularly held on the occasion of Jewish religious
[00:21:00] holidays, pilgrims are provided with kosher
[00:21:04] food. Welcome to
[00:32:45] 30 km. This novelty from Minsk machine builders is currently traveling to exhibitions in Russia, and
[00:33:05] of the new Mass trolleybus with an autonomous range of up to
[00:33:15] generally combines the advantages of
[00:33:18] an electric bus and a trolleybus, thanks to the leadership of the Minsk City Executive Committee, financial resources were allocated and
[00:33:21] we carried out such a large-scale modernization,
[00:33:25] reconstruction, and renovation of our beautiful Gomarnik
[00:33:28] Square. In the project "Your City," we will look into
[00:33:32] quiet courtyards, recall legends, and talk
[00:33:35] about cultural splendor. Watch on our
[00:33:39] TV channel.
[00:33:42] Who are drops? These are people who, for a fee,
[00:33:46] carry out operations on behalf of third parties. Social networks
[00:33:49] are full of offers to earn money quickly, doing nothing, without
[00:33:53] education. A story with an attractive wrapper, but behind it
[00:33:57] is a shadow market, a criminal network that plays on
[00:34:00] the ignorance of its victims. The most
[00:34:03] common criminal spheres where drops are most often
[00:34:07] involved are fraud, including
[00:34:10] cyberfraud, drug trafficking,
[00:34:13] and tax crimes. Belarus was one of the first in the world
[00:34:16] to declare war on drops and drop managers, introduced criminal
[00:34:20] liability, and as a result, managed to stem the tide. At least
[00:34:24] a million dollars has already passed through these accounts. The organizer and
[00:34:27] main participants have been arrested. This is the result
[00:34:30] of a special operation and an example of stopping the activities of one of
[00:34:34] the largest drop services in the CIS. How problematic
[00:34:37] issues in various spheres are being resolved under the
[00:34:41] President's control. Watch on Belarus 20 TV channel.
[00:35:54] seven o'clock in the evening and the main events of this hour, this is primetime news and we
[00:35:58] are Polina Shuba and Sergey Lugovskiy.
