[00:01:00] and Tatyana Korol, hello. Watch in the program.
[00:01:03] Regional development equals national development,
[00:01:06] priority is quality of life in rural areas. The President in Vileysky district
[00:01:10] on control of the situation in the region, agro-industrial complex and trade organization.
[00:01:14] There was a warm conversation with local residents. We are carefully
[00:01:17] monitoring the elimination of the consequences of the storm front throughout Belarus.
[00:01:21] Collected data from all regions. One of the most
[00:01:24] successful and stable companies. Main trends,
[00:01:27] results of the introductory marathon. Let's discuss in the topic
[00:01:30] of the day: Belarus and China will conduct joint exercises, with an emphasis on
[00:01:34] counter-terrorist operations, the goal is to increase the combat capability
[00:01:38] of the troops.
[00:01:40] Regional development, investment in production, increasing the level and
[00:01:44] quality of life of rural residents. These topics are in the
[00:01:47] focus of the President today. Alexander Lukashenko is on a working
[00:01:51] trip to the Minsk region. The Head of State
[00:01:54] is in Vileysky district, the President is immediately interested in the situation in the region as a whole
[00:01:58] and in the military-industrial complex in particular. region, first impressions from
[00:02:01] the air, Alexander Lukashenko demands order in the fields, abandoned
[00:02:05] territories must be introduced into crop rotation, and such work must
[00:02:09] be carried out throughout the region, and not in a separately taken region. Also,
[00:02:12] the president visited the Zenit Bel Amo plant. Previously,
[00:02:16] it was famous throughout the Soviet Union for its Zenit
[00:02:19] SLR cameras. Today, it specializes in
[00:02:23] the production of optical products, auto components, and medical
[00:02:26] equipment. The investment project Tepas is
[00:03:00] in progress. We worked very hard, in fact, we have the best
[00:03:03] five-year period since the post-Soviet era, but
[00:03:07] we are not stopping, the goal for this year is at
[00:03:10] least 110% of production volume, 193.6%
[00:03:13] of export supplies, 105%.
[00:03:16] Of course, such growth could not have been achieved without
[00:03:20] investment measures, without the introduction of new
[00:03:23] products, at all enterprises that are part of the holding, a number
[00:03:26] of investment projects were implemented over the five-year period.
[00:04:00] we mastered, we are aimed at Gomselmash, Bobruyskagromash and
[00:04:03] Amkador, where hydraulic lubrication systems are used,
[00:04:06] well, it is necessary that all this works, lubrication, but I don't know about hydraulics,
[00:04:10] for now I am not aiming at hydraulics, for now only the lubrication system,
[00:04:14] this will be your task, it is clear, we must master hydraulics
[00:04:17] in this and next year, so get ready,
[00:04:20] this is like for Karankevich a press baler and
[00:04:23] a milking robot, so you have hydraulics.
[00:04:26] Another important topic is the organization of trade in rural areas.
[00:04:31] Leading retail chains presented their pavilions. The President
[00:04:34] demands a clear system of work, but the main thing is that
[00:04:38] villagers must be served with dignity. All
[00:04:41] the most important issues of the sphere were
[00:04:44] discussed at the meeting. The key requirement is to provide
[00:04:47] the rural population with a wide range of goods
[00:04:50] to fully meet their needs.
[00:04:53] I want to warn the governor, we have invested considerable money, Alexander
[00:04:57] Nikolaevich, yes. in this, we paid attention
[00:05:00] at the presidential level to
[00:05:03] this, not only to Belkoopsoyuz, new directions of
[00:05:07] servicing the rural population have appeared, let's
[00:05:10] say, God forbid. if people complain, I repeat,
[00:05:13] this is not because I am a villager or Kosinets
[00:05:16] is a villager, but because the village must be
[00:05:20] served with dignity, if we want something from
[00:05:23] the village, here I give an example, yesterday
[00:05:27] the temperature was up to 40°, in this combine
[00:05:31] or in the tractor, maybe even higher, and the air conditioner
[00:05:34] is not everywhere, well, you don't need me to explain, people
[00:05:38] are toiling there, and they say they come home,
[00:05:42] we go into this shop... or somewhere else, and
[00:05:45] there, as Poselnik Klavish reports, rot is lying there,
[00:05:49] is that normal, therefore, keep in mind, this applies
[00:05:52] to everyone, give feedback, we will demand this from you and
[00:05:56] serve the population, if Euroopt, Eurotorg
[00:05:58] took some golden vein, and
[00:06:02] work normally, and their profitability is over 30, or even
[00:06:05] 50, well, grab on the way there or somewhere
[00:06:08] else less developed
[00:06:12] settlements and villages, but this is humane, today we
[00:06:15] must serve the rural population
[00:06:18] normally, there is no other way, and I
[00:06:21] will control this strictly, but again,
[00:06:25] I emphasize, there is no goal to stifle trade, no,
[00:06:29] we will watch prices, but Slaukov will report separately
[00:06:33] on how he defined the formula
[00:06:35] of justice, there must be a formula of justice, this means
[00:06:39] that the population should be satisfied, and you
[00:06:42] would... work like that, otherwise tomorrow the trading
[00:06:45] company will collapse, we will have to think about a new commonwealth
[00:06:49] to dump on someone, we don't need this, we will
[00:06:53] support you, we will do everything, but we will
[00:06:56] also demand. The President again called on retail
[00:06:59] chains to be socially responsible for remote villages,
[00:07:03] it is unacceptable to skim the cream by earning in big cities, and
[00:07:06] leaving the village without attention. However, so far, only
[00:07:10] a few retail chains have joined in servicing the rural population,
[00:07:14] with close attention to the quality of service.
[00:07:17] Trade still sins with the presence of expired goods and non-compliance
[00:07:21] with sanitary standards. There are other problematic issues in the
[00:07:24] countryside. The work of mobile shops, therefore,
[00:07:28] there are claims in this direction to consumer cooperatives and
[00:07:31] other networks, representatives of large networks are
[00:07:35] present here. People still complain about the operating
[00:07:38] hours, routes, and assortment. Guys, I'll tell
[00:07:42] you, man to man, stop messing around, serve
[00:07:45] the population as, at least, the authorities
[00:07:49] decide, as I demand from you, I already said,
[00:07:52] we will help you, but we will demand
[00:07:55] strictly. The monitoring of Vileika district,
[00:07:58] which the Presidential Administration conducted, in which we are working
[00:08:02] today, showed that even such products as apples, onions,
[00:08:05] beets, potatoes were not available in certain mobile shops,
[00:08:09] although there was a demand from buyers. Well,
[00:08:12] there are two ways to look at this, we have already reached
[00:08:15] the point in the village where there are no onions,
[00:08:18] no potatoes, no beets, I
[00:08:21] am the president, I hardly consume potatoes, onions
[00:08:25] sometimes and so on, but I have enough of them,
[00:08:29] they grow in my own beds, the borscht
[00:08:32] set is complete, but our peasants
[00:08:35] complain, they live on half a hectare of land, and
[00:08:39] how much free land, they can't plant a bed of onions, this is...
[00:08:42] on the one hand, but if there is demand, why don't we
[00:08:45] satisfy it, this is another side, and this is throughout
[00:08:49] the country, everyone remembers last year's situation with the shortage
[00:08:52] of potatoes, with exorbitant prices for it, now, taking into
[00:08:56] account seasonality, these issues are not so urgent, but winter is not
[00:08:59] far off, I am talking about stabilization funds, I think there
[00:09:03] is still work to be done here, the leadership of retail chains,
[00:09:07] the district executive committee and others, deal with this
[00:09:10] today, take priority on domestic
[00:09:14] products, the president demands to increase its share in the domestic market.
[00:09:18] So far, statistics are not impressive, there are few Belarusian products
[00:09:20] on the shelves, well, a little more than half. Today, the country
[00:09:24] still imports a lot of products that we produce ourselves.
[00:09:28] Alexander Lukashenko calls for more active work with
[00:09:31] domestic producers. After the meeting, the president
[00:09:35] warmly chatted with the residents of Vileyka, they talked about life in
[00:09:38] the countryside, discipline, and order in the district.
[00:09:41] that we have become much better off, even
[00:09:45] comparing this, I used to work in communications, and you
[00:09:48] know, in communications, I used to work, no,
[00:09:52] well, I retired, on pension, nothing, on
[00:09:55] pension, on pension, I worked in communications, then communications
[00:09:59] was just starting, and now looking at this, what technologies,
[00:10:02] what order everywhere, you know, well, my heart rejoices, I'll
[00:10:06] interrupt you, we really started
[00:10:09] to live better, here I... or cars, so that, and
[00:10:25] Vileyka district is participating in our experiment,
[00:10:28] nine districts, including Vileika, so I came
[00:10:31] to see how they serve the rural population, I
[00:10:35] am not fighting for collective farms, state farms, private owners,
[00:10:38] not even for agriculture, I am fighting for
[00:10:41] the village, so that it is preserved in some
[00:10:45] form, during this five-year plan, there will be a road
[00:10:48] to every town, 100%, we have already defined
[00:10:51] the plan and allocated money.
[00:10:55] We allocated, started building, where it is not built, but mostly
[00:10:59] there are already roads, people began to live,
[00:11:02] unpopularly, I will say, much better,
[00:11:05] those who want to live well, can live
[00:11:09] well here, it so happened today, war here, war
[00:11:12] there, and Russia, the East, through Belarus
[00:11:16] today, through this narrow bottleneck, communicates
[00:11:20] with the West, with Europe, a huge flow goes through
[00:11:24] us, someone... slows this down, it's competition, there is a
[00:11:27] struggle, but our Belarusians should not sleep, they need to
[00:11:31] move, on any stream you can
[00:11:35] earn something, and enterprising people earn, now
[00:11:38] work where you want, earn, if you
[00:11:42] steal, you see, there must be discipline in
[00:11:45] society, as soon as we lose discipline,
[00:11:48] we will start stealing from each other, from the state, there will be
[00:11:51] war, believe my experience, war.
[00:11:55] In Ukraine it didn't start with some problems,
[00:11:58] but with theft, corruption, when they took, the country
[00:12:02] was rich, they stuffed their pockets, and someone else's, and it came
[00:12:05] to war, they didn't share,
[00:12:08] therefore, well, maybe a little poorer, but without
[00:12:11] war, this is the main thing, it is possible that the residents
[00:12:15] thanked the President for the peaceful life on their
[00:12:18] land, there are many guests in Vileika, including Russians, well, people
[00:12:22] also came to express words of gratitude to the Belarusian... noted,
[00:12:30] to preserve peace, everyone must work hard in their
[00:12:34] workplace. This is primetime news. We
[00:12:37] are following the developments in the country and the world. More information on our
[00:12:41] website newsby. They endured the tests and entered
[00:14:59] the best period in history. A solemn event was held at
[00:15:02] the Chinese Embassy in Belarus. The first
[00:15:05] through freight train, "Slavic Caravan," departed
[00:15:08] from Orsha to Uzbekistan.
[00:15:11] At the invitation of the President of Belarus, Zubrenok hosts
[00:15:14] children from Southeast Asia.
[00:15:17] Belarusian-Chinese relations have withstood
[00:15:22] the tests. It is likely that this year we will have
[00:16:07] a new record in trade between China and Belarus.
[00:16:11] The reception is not just a tribute to important dates in Chinese history,
[00:16:15] but a clear confirmation of common interest. These
[00:16:19] next years are officially declared the years of industrial
[00:16:22] cooperation between Belarus and China.
[00:16:25] Belarus and Tajikistan signed a roadmap for cooperation until
[00:16:29] 2031. The ceremony took place during
[00:16:32] the nineteenth meeting of the intergovernmental commission
[00:16:36] on trade and economic cooperation in Brest. At
[00:16:39] the meeting, the state and prospects for the development
[00:16:42] of trade, economic, investment, and interregional cooperation,
[00:16:46] industrial cooperation, and interaction in various sectors
[00:16:49] of the economy and social sphere were discussed.
[00:16:53] The first through freight train "Slavic Caravan" departed from
[00:16:56] Orsha to Uzbekistan. A solemn event took place at
[00:17:00] Orsha Vostochnaya station. The train will follow the route
[00:17:03] Belarus, Russia, Kazakhstan. In the future, it is planned to expand the range of goods to include wagons with
[00:17:16] containers delivered by road transport, which will allow
[00:17:20] to take advantage of all the benefits of multimodal
[00:17:23] transportation. Already today, we have already passed
[00:17:26] this route Belarus Uzbekistan, but we, with our
[00:17:29] Uzbek colleagues, have thought out a completely
[00:17:32] different service, it is more qualitative, what does it consist of.
[00:17:35] that the train without re-forming, without
[00:17:38] additional stops, will pass through the territory
[00:17:41] of Russia, Kazakhstan and arrive in Uzbekistan, along this entire route
[00:17:45] there are reference points, which are on schedule, like
[00:17:48] a passenger train schedule, we need to bring
[00:17:52] the volume of mutual, mutual
[00:17:55] trade to 2 billion dollars by
[00:17:59] 2030, this indicates that we
[00:18:02] have the political will of the leaders of the two
[00:18:06] countries, we have...
[00:18:37] The Academy of Sciences of Belarus and the Southern Medical University of China
[00:18:40] signed an agreement on scientific and technical cooperation. The document
[00:18:44] will unite the efforts of the parties to strengthen scientific potential,
[00:18:47] exchange advanced technologies, and create joint products
[00:18:51] for applied purposes. Priority areas of cooperation
[00:18:55] include research in the field of traditional Chinese medicine,
[00:18:58] physiology, molecular biology and biochemistry, as well as
[00:19:01] translational science.
