[00:01:35] Minsk celebrates its professional holiday. We continue
[00:01:39] the information broadcast on the first channel.
[00:01:41] Global challenges, Belarusian experience and gratitude for the development
[00:01:45] of allied ties. The President yesterday held a meeting with the leader of the faction
[00:01:49] of the Communist Party of Russia in the State Duma. With the leader of the CPRF, the
[00:01:52] head of state traditionally communicates on a variety of topics,
[00:01:55] Belarusian-Russian relations, inter-party cooperation, there was also a
[00:03:00] mood, which is extremely important, you have something to show, but
[00:03:04] first of all, I wanted to congratulate
[00:03:07] you, we revived
[00:03:10] the Lenin Prize, I know, unanimously
[00:03:13] voted to award you this high award with a
[00:03:17] diploma, I am proud that
[00:03:20] Belarus under your leadership has become
[00:03:23] an example in the post-Soviet space, I say this absolutely authoritatively,
[00:03:27] I have been everywhere, I know
[00:03:30] the country well in eighty countries of the world, I'll tell you straight, when
[00:03:34] I saw that even the opponent of Belarus
[00:03:37] put it in the top five safest, most energetic countries
[00:03:40] in the post-Soviet space, you doubled
[00:03:44] your Soviet potential, your
[00:03:47] achievement is that you built on the best
[00:03:50] of the Soviet era, adding, increasing, not
[00:03:54] discarding anything, not throwing anything away, moving forward, this
[00:03:58] gives you honor and...
[00:04:14] An award for contributing to the activities for the affirmation of the ideas of a just and
[00:04:18] multipolar world, for efforts to strengthen the Union State
[00:04:22] and preserve historical heritage. Among the laureates
[00:04:25] of the award are Raul Castro, the general secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam,
[00:04:28] and the president of Nicaragua.
[00:04:34] The number of earthquake victims in Colombia is growing, 132
[00:04:37] people have died, and another 570 have been injured, hundreds of residents are missing,
[00:04:41] people remain under the rubble, rescuers,
[00:04:44] and local residents continue search operations. Today the news came
[00:04:48] that a live infant was pulled from under the rubble, a state of
[00:04:52] national disaster has been introduced in the country, enormous damage has been inflicted on
[00:04:55] the infrastructure, dozens of houses have collapsed in the country, and transport movement
[00:04:58] has been disrupted. Effective coordination, elimination of consequences
[00:05:02] to help the victims, a special headquarters has been created. This is
[00:05:05] the largest earthquake in a decade, magnitude 7.4, tremors
[00:05:09] were felt in several regions of central and southwestern
[00:05:12] Colombia, as well as in other countries: Ecuador, Panama, and
[00:05:16] Venezuela. Trump put forward new conditions
[00:05:19] for negotiations with Iran. He demanded that Tehran pay compensation for
[00:05:23] the deaths of American servicemen. This step was a response to Tehran's
[00:05:27] request for compensation for damages over the last 5 months of the conflict.
[00:05:31] Trump refused to pay money to Iran and ordered to put forward counter
[00:05:35] demands. Washington intends to collect funds for all
[00:05:38] dead and wounded Americans over the last 50 years. The head of
[00:05:42] the White House has already ordered these points to be included in the agenda of any
[00:05:46] future meetings.
[00:05:48] Corruption remains the main stumbling block on the path to NATO. This
[00:05:52] conclusion is made by the American magazine The National Interest. The publication
[00:05:55] notes that to obtain membership in the alliance, any country must
[00:05:59] demonstrate transparent operation of state institutions and an effective
[00:06:02] legal system. However, Ukraine continues to hold the status of one
[00:06:06] of the most corrupt states in Europe. The authors of the article
[00:06:09] are confident that the problem with bribery in Kyiv
[00:06:12] and long-term financial scandals will continue even after the end of
[00:06:16] the Ukrainian conflict.
[00:06:19] The degree of tension in Polish society regarding Ukrainian refugees
[00:06:22] is rapidly increasing. Experts see the reasons for such events in
[00:06:26] the behavior of the refugees themselves.
[00:06:29] It is also important how these people who moved there,
[00:06:32] how they behave, yes, how much they
[00:06:36] show such external gratitude. This is also such
[00:06:40] an important aspect, yes, but from what we see, especially when
[00:06:44] we see some kind of nationalist-minded
[00:06:47] youth, a lot of youth went
[00:06:50] there for a better life, yes, and there they
[00:06:53] also began to behave, so to speak, in a peculiar way,
[00:06:57] instead of somehow respectfully
[00:07:00] treating, yes, the Polish way
[00:07:03] of life there, Poles, but they
[00:07:06] somehow arrived as if they were at home, yes, and
[00:07:09] behave, perhaps, even sometimes...
[00:07:35] Belarus and Tajikistan are strengthening transport links. From August
[00:07:38] 29, the national airline of Tajikistan, Samon Air,
[00:07:42] will launch direct regular flights Dushanbe-Minsk. Flights will
[00:07:46] be operated once a week on Saturdays. The new route
[00:07:49] will simplify travel for citizens and open up new opportunities for business, tourism,
[00:07:53] and humanitarian contacts between the countries. Web tickets are already
[00:07:56] available for booking, including through the official website
[00:07:59] of the carrier.
[00:08:02] Employees of the Minsk border control detachment celebrate their professional
[00:08:05] holiday: for 81 years they have been guarding the air
[00:08:08] borders. Illegal travelers do not miss the opportunity.
[00:09:12] to personally check the readiness of retail facilities for the new
[00:09:15] academic year. Under the close control of specialists is absolutely the entire
[00:09:19] student arsenal for boys and girls of all ages. The focus
[00:09:23] is on the depth of the assortment, the quality
[00:09:26] of materials, and, most importantly, the origin
[00:09:28] of the product. The results of the inspection are in Polina
[00:09:32] Beresneva's report. August is a restless month for many parents.
[00:09:36] Children need to be prepared for school almost from scratch, from lined notebooks
[00:09:39] and pens to vests and classic trousers. And so that the search for
[00:09:43] that perfect uniform does not turn into a race through stores, and the school rush
[00:09:47] and chaos with the September 1st deadline, retail facilities are under
[00:09:50] special control of relevant departments, as well as the trade union.
[00:09:53] During the monitoring, it is important for specialists not just to see full hangers, they
[00:09:57] check the inside, which is the composition, size range, and
[00:10:01] also the height range. I will note the discounts
[00:10:05] for buyers. The main task is accessibility and
[00:10:08] quality. Under close control is absolutely the entire range
[00:10:11] of goods for boys and girls from
[00:10:15] first-graders to graduates, price gouging, shortage of basic
[00:10:18] items or obvious defects, trade unions immediately address the issue with local
[00:10:22] authorities, one can conclude that compared to...
[00:10:55] the key thing that inspectors pay attention to, literally by touch
[00:10:58] by labels, they check the composition, synthetics do not pass
[00:11:02] the test, the choice should be not only in favor of beauty, but also
[00:11:05] safety. For many, another criterion is practicality. We
[00:11:09] look at the position, in accordance with
[00:11:11] the list, in this case we have a vest for
[00:11:15] girls of primary school age, here it is a Belarusian
[00:11:18] manufacturer, then we look again
[00:11:21] among girls' vests.
[00:11:25] what manufacturers' goods are represented here, we constantly
[00:11:28] come to this store, department store, there is a large
[00:11:32] assortment here, freely, you can choose everything
[00:11:35] right from stationery to clothes,
[00:11:39] the service is very cultured, the prices
[00:11:42] are quite pleasant,
[00:11:44] we bought notebooks, and then
[00:11:48] pens, covers, paints
[00:11:51] and these gouaches. Also
[00:12:26] about 170 samples of backpacks and about 200
[00:12:30] of shoes. We have clothes that can be selected for heights from 116
[00:12:33] to 190 cm. We made sure that school preparation was affordable
[00:12:37] and we offer daily discounts
[00:12:41] of up to 40% on school clothes, up to
[00:12:43] 45% on clothes and shoes, and up to 20% on
[00:12:47] stationery. We invite Belarusians themselves to join
[00:12:51] the monitoring. If you came to the fair and didn't find the right product
[00:12:55] or encountered an overpriced tag, don't wait. Comments or
[00:12:59] suggestions are accepted through a special service on the official
[00:13:02] electronic portal of the FFB. A solution will be found promptly.
[00:13:06] Polina Beresneva and Anatoly Dolotovsky, the first
[00:13:08] informational.
[00:13:11] A real cultural perestroika awaits the National Art Museum of
[00:13:15] Belarus. The main building of the gallery closed for restoration.
[00:13:18] Yesterday, museum guests were able to visit the exhibition with a ticket with a
[00:13:22] special commemorative design. Also in the museum.
[00:13:57] The restoration is planned to be completed by the end of next year, the exhibition
[00:14:00] building at Karl Marx 24
[00:15:52] The morning broadcast continues with the program Zone X, I'm Karina Pashkova,
[00:15:56] hello, fake link,
[00:16:00] distribution of fake fines with phishing
[00:16:02] links. The police are receiving complaints from victims
[00:16:06] of this type of fraud. Most often, law enforcement officers say,
[00:16:10] criminals spread phishing links via
[00:16:13] SMS. The message tells you that there is a fine from the
[00:16:17] traffic police and an attached fake link,
[00:16:20] allegedly to the Yerip service website. However, instead of
[00:16:23] the Belarusian domain .by, the link contains a different domain. If
[00:16:27] you don't pay attention to this and click on it, a full-fledged website will open.
