[00:00:00] And this time, representatives of twenty cities of
[00:00:03] Belarus gathered in Minsk. Such competition is not just a good
[00:00:06] opportunity for athletes to test their strength, but also to gain competitive
[00:00:10] experience, and also a chance to get noticed by national team coaches.
[00:00:14] Every promising pair, every promising player is
[00:00:18] taken note of, and they will be watched, because we are admitted
[00:00:21] to international competitions. This year
[00:00:24] we are already starting to participate little by little, next
[00:00:27] year we will already be participating in...
[00:00:31] and versatility. Another part of
[00:01:14] The creation of new university, the academy of
[00:01:17] intellectual technologies was the topic of a meeting hosted by
[00:01:20] Belarusian president Alexander Lukashenko, senior government
[00:01:23] officials, presidential administration, the National Academy of
[00:01:27] Sciences, relevant ministries and universities were in.
[00:01:31] by focusing on the introduction of the latest educational technologies in
[00:01:34] working with talented children, we began to form the future of our
[00:01:38] country, as we call it, the intellectual
[00:01:41] elite, but time does not stand still, we
[00:01:44] need to make a qualitative leap in working with
[00:01:47] gifted youth, well, not only youth, I have
[00:01:51] repeatedly said that the formation of the economy of the future
[00:01:55] is impossible without the accelerated development of
[00:01:58] the higher education system. We are talking about creating
[00:02:01] a fundamentally new educational environment,
[00:02:04] flexible, yes, interdisciplinary,
[00:02:07] results-oriented integrated into real
[00:02:10] economic processes, primarily for the needs of
[00:02:14] our country. That is why there is a need to
[00:02:17] create a new university, a university
[00:02:21] of the future, and we agreed that such an institution,
[00:02:25] as you call it, an academy, will
[00:02:27] exist today. Thank you.
[00:02:30] will be trained in such fields as natural sciences, engineering and digital
[00:02:34] technologies. The chairman of the presidium of the Academy of Sciences emphasized
[00:02:38] that not only school graduates, but also students, university graduates
[00:02:41] and accomplished scientists will be able to receive training at the academy. They
[00:02:45] will have the opportunity to enroll in the academy's postgraduate and doctoral
[00:02:49] programs.
[00:02:52] The Latvian prime minister admitted that the government had
[00:02:55] refused to approve the entire ministry's insane
[00:02:59] initiative to permanently close the border. Faced with an
[00:03:02] ultimatum from national road carriers who are losing millions of
[00:03:06] euros and fearing signatures from members of parliament calling for the
[00:03:09] resignation of the relevant minister. The Latvian cabinet has
[00:03:13] strained to curtail its pre-election
[00:03:15] provocation.
[00:03:19] This is a step that is detrimental to the
[00:03:22] relationship. This is clear to everyone,
[00:03:26] and we should treat it accordingly, that
[00:03:28] is, given that the Republic of Belarus has introduced
[00:03:32] visa-free travel and electronic visas for our
[00:03:35] citizens and has made travel and crossing its
[00:03:38] border easier, many people are traveling.
[00:03:42] Vitebsk was among the winners of As for citizens, it's no secret that many people
[00:03:45] living in our country have relatives and roots in
[00:03:48] Belarus. This, of course, doesn't make their lives
[00:03:52] any easier. As for cargo,
[00:03:55] Belarus has already gone through these routes, for example,
[00:03:59] with Poland and
[00:04:00] Lithuania.
[00:04:10] The Great Stone industrial park's revenue exceeded half a billion dollars
[00:04:14] last year. By 2030, it plans to triple its workforce to
[00:04:17] 1200 employees and increase the number of residents to
[00:04:20] 270. This growth is the best proof that Belarusian-Chinese
[00:04:24] corporation is gaining momentum. For
[00:04:27] today, 175 resident companies have been registered
[00:04:30] in the park, 67 of which are from China. These
[00:04:34] companies have invested over $1.2 billion dollars in
[00:04:38] fixed capital since the park's inception. The Chinese
[00:04:41] component is $650 million dollars, or more than
[00:04:44] half. A unique ecosystem, preferential
[00:04:48] treatment, ready-made engineering and access to the EAEU and Chinese
[00:04:51] markets. All this allows for not just assembling components, but
[00:04:55] building a complete production chain from development to mass production.
[00:04:59] Exports are expected to exceed half a billion dollars by
[00:05:02] 2030.
[00:05:05] By the end of the year, the volume of supplies of Belarusian goods to
[00:05:09] Israel will soar to a record $18.6 million
[00:05:13] compared to last year, our export will grow by almost
[00:05:16] 600%, surpassing all previous historical
[00:05:20] highs. The Israeli market is
[00:05:23] very special, not only in terms of military and
[00:05:27] political risks, which your viewers, you and I
[00:05:31] are well aware of. However, I hope that their
[00:05:34] severity will diminish in the coming months and
[00:05:38] God-willing years. It is still challenging in terms of
[00:05:41] supply.
[00:06:12] for years, so far there is great untapped potential
[00:06:16] between our country and this Russian region, and the new
[00:06:19] document will give impetus to new cooperation ties and joint
[00:06:23] projects. Today industrial cooperation is the focus of particular
[00:06:27] attention. Industrial cooperation
[00:06:31] is very well developed in Russia, and it also
[00:06:35] involves the supply of equipment because Belarus has very
[00:06:38] strong manufacturers of the equipment which is purchased, among
[00:06:51] As part of the cooperation agreement between Belarus and Russia, a
[00:06:55] roadmap has been prepared. It is planned to be
[00:06:59] signed this fall in Minsk at the Innoprom industrial
[00:07:02] exhibition. The document will include all products currently under
[00:07:06] discussion.

[00:07:23] Alexander Karlukeich presented the new edition to the heads of
[00:07:27] diplomatic missions and consular institutions of our country.

[00:07:34] demand worldwide. The English language edition is addressed to
[00:07:38] patriots abroad. The book will be also available in other languages
[00:07:42] well. At present, proposals are being collected regarding the choice of
[00:07:45] translation language.

[00:08:25] also getting to know your traditional cuisine. I love everything,
[00:08:29] especially hospitality. The positive tradition of inviting children
[00:08:32] from other countries has been in place since 2017. During this
[00:08:36] period, more than 2,500 children have received healthcare and
[00:08:39] treatment in Belarus. The geography of countries is expanding every year.

[00:10:02] training and joint reconnaissance as well as searching for and destroying illegal
[00:10:06] armed groups in mountainous desert terrain at the Kotlakol
[00:10:09] training ground. The training ground is familiar to Belarusian servicemen.

[00:10:17] there where the same tasks were practiced with artillery and army
[00:10:20] aviation support.
[00:10:24] Belarusian cars and vehicles were presented at the largest car
[00:10:27] festival for Virginia in Moscow. This large-scale
[00:10:31] event brought together leading representatives of the automotive
[00:10:34] industry at the exhibition of National Economy Achievements and
[00:10:38] became a platform for showcasing modern equipment.
[00:10:42] As part of the festival, the domestic universal loader, Amkador

[00:11:13] of Vitebsk Region Folk Art Center is on display for the
[00:11:17] first time at the Tsaritana Museum Reserve in Moscow. Today
[00:11:20] this unique technique is a part of Belarus's historical heritage. The
[00:11:24] prime of Malyavanka in Belarus was in the early 20th century, at
[00:11:28] that time people used Malyavanka to decorate their homes due to the vibrant
[00:11:32] colors and affordability.
[00:11:35] This work is one of the oldest in the collection. It's not exactly
[00:11:38] known when, but it was probably painted in the late
[00:11:41] 1930s, and it captures dreams of a happy life.

[00:11:49] and the carpet of flowers spreads out before it, pond,
[00:11:53] swans, fragrant nature. Everything is beautiful in this
[00:11:56] life. Today, Malyavanka is more than just decoration. It
[00:12:00] represents the soul of the Belarusian people. Through symbols, myths
[00:12:03] and vivid images, they help us maintain connection to our roots,
[00:12:07] our national identity. This is our heritage which must be
[00:12:11] preserved.

[00:13:40] freestyle wrestling. Based on the results of 10
[00:13:43] bouts, the teams from Belarus and Russia secured an equal
[00:13:47] number of victories. However, according to the competition
[00:13:50] regulations, the victory went to the Belarusian team due to
[00:13:54] an additional indicator: qualifying
[00:13:56] points.

[00:14:17] girls, she was the person who performed the most
[00:14:20] challenging program. Took silver and yesterday

[00:14:34] preparing for the next season because there are still World
[00:14:38] Championships and of course Olympic Games.
