[00:01:05] Good evening, Panorama is live, in the studio Ekaterina Tikhomirova and about
[00:01:08] the main events of this Tuesday. Their own cartridges,
[00:01:12] their own barrels, their own control. Minsk has fixed the status
[00:01:16] of a full-cycle small arms manufacturer. Alexander
[00:01:19] Lukashenko familiarized himself with the implementation of the project. Green light
[00:01:22] for private initiative in the village, what opportunities does the
[00:01:26] decree on the development of agro-tourism,
[00:01:28] signed by the president, open up? And the road from Zhirovichi to Minsk,
[00:01:32] 250 km under the cover of the Shrine,
[00:01:36] the all-Belarusian cross procession has started. More
[00:01:40] details from my colleagues.
[00:01:43] Not for war, but for confidence in peace, the president visited the production
[00:01:47] of Belarusian small arms, own developments for
[00:01:50] security. We will tell
[00:01:52] you the details.
[00:01:55] Capacity loading and development of the raw material base, prospect
[00:01:58] of increase.
[00:02:19] Several military personnel have already tried to commit suicide, Turkey,
[00:02:22] Pakistan and Saudi Arabia, are forming a Sunni NATO. We will
[00:02:26] tell you about this and more in the trends right after the panorama.
[00:02:31] Capital motorists should pay increased attention, the number of
[00:02:35] paid parking lots has increased in Minsk, the map has been supplemented with two more locations.
[00:02:38] What are these places, and not only that, we will tell you more in
[00:02:41] the story. On the icebreaker of knowledge to the top of
[00:02:45] the planet, a Belarusian schoolboy returned from
[00:02:48] an international expedition to the North Pole. We will
[00:02:51] tell you about the unique Arctic voyage in
[00:02:54] the report. While the German Minister of Defense draws
[00:02:57] a new plan for a campaign to the East, his soldiers are afraid of deployment near
[00:03:01] the Belarusian border, what they guess, we will
[00:03:04] discuss in the evening
[00:03:06] broadcast.
[00:03:09] Not for war, but for confidence in peace. This was the main
[00:03:12] motive for creating our own production of small arms.
[00:03:16] The president visited a unique industrial site today. Even with
[00:03:20] drones or ballistic missiles, small
[00:03:23] arms are very important for the army. Without this, there is no defense
[00:03:27] - Alexander Lukashenko is sure. For the country, bringing to
[00:03:31] life such an advanced project is strengthening technological
[00:03:35] security, the ability to equip the armed forces, as well
[00:03:38] as expanding export potential. Our own
[00:03:41] high-tech developments are needed today to strengthen
[00:03:44] defense capability, and in this part, Belarusian
[00:03:47] gunsmiths have plans for the future. Natalia
[00:03:51] Breus visited the unique production.
[00:03:54] They started dealing with small arms about 7-8 years ago.
[00:03:58] At first, these were modifications with... imported components, but
[00:04:02] for the last 3 years, work has been in full swing
[00:04:04] to fulfill the president's order,
[00:04:08] to organize a truly own production,
[00:04:11] giving it, Alexander Lukashenko was guided by simple logic, anything
[00:04:15] can happen in life, in such a sphere you need to have
[00:04:18] your own. The industrial site was undertaken to be equipped by the
[00:04:22] State Military-Industrial Committee Kidmatek, the process was not easy - the
[00:04:25] gunsmiths admit, but as they say, the eyes are afraid,
[00:04:29] the hands do it. Setting up production, mass
[00:04:32] production, is carried out in these five workshops, for
[00:04:36] each detail its own
[00:04:40] technology is developed, this can be plastic casting
[00:04:42] technology, rubber casting, mechanical
[00:04:46] processing of some parts,
[00:04:49] forging, stamping, cold heading,
[00:04:52] dozens of technological processes
[00:04:55] are involved in the entire production. Former warehouses of the
[00:04:59] armed forces were turned into modern production, reconstruction
[00:05:02] of all engineering communications was carried out, equipment
[00:05:06] was purchased, technologies were implemented, specialists
[00:05:10] were trained, as a result, the production of small arms in Belarus
[00:05:14] was created almost from scratch, Alexander Lukashenko
[00:05:17] will come to see how it all turns out. You were
[00:05:21] instructed to create combat weapons,
[00:05:24] 100% localization, everything is Belarusian, exactly right, all
[00:05:28] products are produced at this factory, this is necessary, I, as a former
[00:05:31] soldier, understand well what small arms are, but without
[00:05:34] these weapons we will do nothing, if we have
[00:05:38] drones, ballistic missiles and so
[00:05:41] on, this is... very important, this is the basis of any army,
[00:05:44] so the decision was made, we need to
[00:05:47] produce our own, these are very high technologies, and we
[00:05:51] did it, we did it ourselves, so
[00:05:54] the merit here is Dmitry and Romanach,
[00:05:58] who led the military-industrial complex recently,
[00:06:01] probably started producing all this, it's a
[00:06:05] great merit of theirs, and they are great for doing it, without
[00:06:08] this there is no war, no defense, for...
[00:07:13] president, since 2019 we started from scratch, there was no school, no
[00:07:16] specialists, we conducted developments, as of today,
[00:07:20] five models, six modifications of various small arms,
[00:07:23] sniper rifles, pistols, machine guns, assault rifles, have been
[00:07:27] developed. We took the VSK-100 as a basis, let's
[00:07:30] say, which we modified and
[00:07:33] translated into automatic firing mode, but as of today,
[00:07:37] as you rightly noted, four products have been officially adopted by the armed
[00:07:40] forces, with our armed
[00:07:50] forces, they point out all the small things, all the modifications that need to be fixed. This is very important to us, as
[00:07:54] manufacturers. The developers will show the entire line with
[00:07:57] feeling, thoroughly, with an explanation of where they started and
[00:08:01] how they refined each model. Among the advantages of
[00:08:04] the Belarusian assault rifle are noiselessness, firing accuracy, reliability and
[00:08:08] high rate of fire.
[00:08:21] taking it as a basis, we
[00:08:24] extracted from it the trigger mechanism, the single-fire
[00:08:27] sear, it fired single
[00:08:30] cartridges, and the magazine was only for 10 cartridges, we
[00:08:34] threw all this out, so to speak,
[00:08:36] put our own trigger mechanism,
[00:08:40] automatic fire sear,
[00:08:43] 30-round magazine, and we got this VSK-100
[00:08:46] assault rifle, this is your current
[00:08:49] version, that's what we started with, this is what
[00:08:53] we started with, president, laboratory work, this is a whole
[00:08:56] Belomovsky, Belomovsky,
[00:08:59] this is the assault rifle we got, and after conducting all the tests in the armed forces, we
[00:09:03] gave the assault rifle for testing, and
[00:09:06] today, by decision of the Minister of Defense, one of
[00:09:09] the units is already supplied with 500 units.
[00:10:33] There is a lot of automation in production, but in one of the sections where the barrels are straightened, which means that ultimately
[00:10:36] the accuracy and effectiveness of each product is adjusted, it is impossible to do
[00:10:40] without special specialists. Thanks to
[00:10:43] the light beam, we see the bend of the barrel, the linearity,
[00:10:47] the straightness, but only you see this, or
[00:10:51] he and I can, it is very difficult for us to see.
[00:13:55] You did a great job, but don't stop. The Belarusian
[00:13:58] military industry is developing in different directions. At the dawn of independence,
[00:14:02] Alexander Lukashenko did not allow the country's military potential
[00:14:06] to be squandered. On the contrary, they accumulated all the best and always supported
[00:14:09] the development of modern weapons. For
[00:14:12] Belarus, the implementation of the project to create its own
[00:14:16] small arms is strengthening technological
[00:14:20] security, the ability to equip the armed forces, and
[00:14:24] also the ability to expand export potential, contracts
[00:14:27] for delivery are already in place. At the initial stage, we had
[00:14:31] no school in this direction, not at all, and of course, taking into
[00:14:34] account visits to certain enterprises,
[00:14:38] studying certain technologies, we managed to
[00:14:41] create such a creative team, initially it was
[00:14:44] exactly a creative one, it was aimed at modernizing small
[00:14:48] arms, so in the end, it turned out that we are capable
[00:14:52] of both developing and producing.
[00:14:55] on modern equipment, an already domestic
[00:14:58] assault rifle will be produced at this enterprise, not
[00:15:01] only the VSK-100B assault rifle, but
[00:15:04] also the line of small arms that has already been adopted
[00:15:07] for service, these are pistols, submachine guns,
[00:15:10] caliber 9x19 and two types of
[00:15:14] sniper rifles, which are also today already adopted for service by our armed
[00:15:18] forces. One of the key tasks that we set for ourselves is
[00:15:21] the development of a machine gun, and I think.
[00:15:37] and there will always be a guarantee of how to protect the country,
[00:15:41] Belarus does not make any aggressive plans, it only builds
[00:15:44] its army and its defense shield, because
[00:15:48] peace is preserved, while weapons are strong. Natalia
[00:15:52] Breus, Alexei Martynionok, Sergei Matveichuk and Alexander Oleshka, First
[00:15:56] Information.
[00:15:58] Today, the president also signed a decree on the development of
[00:16:01] agro-ecotourism, the country intends to give an additional
[00:16:04] impetus to this area, in particular, preferential
[00:16:08] lending to agro-ecotourism entities has been extended for an unlimited
[00:16:11] period of validity. In addition, lending limits are being canceled,
[00:16:15] the terms for concluding loan agreements are increasing from
[00:16:18] 5 to 8 years for agricultural organizations, from
[00:16:21] 7 to 10 years for individuals. Approaches
[00:16:25] to supporting farmsteads located
[00:16:28] far from large settlements are also changing. They will be able to pay
[00:16:32] a special fee instead of tax. Its rate from January 1
[00:16:35] is 45 rubles. In addition, according to the new norms, farmsteads
[00:16:39] can henceforth have a maximum of 15
[00:16:42] living rooms, and the list of services they provide has also
[00:16:46] been expanded.
[00:16:55] To the international agenda, the United Nations Secretary-General called on Iran and
[00:16:58] the United States of America to resume negotiations on a
[00:17:01] long-term settlement of the conflict. The day before, Trump
[00:17:05] stated that he did not plan to extend the term. the role of
[00:17:37] Tehran over the Strait of Hormuz, this will derail Trump's
[00:17:41] plans. So, if the Sultanate stands in the way of
[00:17:44] resolving the conflict with Iran, then Trump threatens Oman to
[00:17:48] strike. What is behind the threats? Expert
[00:17:51] opinion. Before us, again, I am stating my point
[00:17:55] of view,
[00:17:57] the actions of globalists to launch a large-scale
[00:18:00] crisis. The meaning of the actions is as
[00:18:04] follows: by unleashing
[00:18:08] a military conflict, creating tension in a narrow
[00:18:11] place, from where a significant part of the world's
[00:18:14] hydrocarbons is transported, to create a deficit, high
[00:18:18] cost, instability of supplies and thus
[00:18:21] do what was not fully achieved in
[00:18:24] 2008, but quite achieved in
[00:18:27] 1929.
[00:18:30] If we look at the actions of the United States in this way,
[00:18:34] much will become clear, what Trump is doing, well, what are the United
[00:18:37] States doing: they are fueling the fire in
[00:18:40] the hearth. This creation of a situation of neither
[00:18:43] peace nor war, as Trotsky said, is the main
[00:18:46] idea, and Donald Trump is brilliantly,
[00:18:50] brilliantly, with enthusiasm, with imagination, bringing it
[00:18:53] to life.
[00:19:00] The second Ukrainian attack on a Greek ship in
[00:19:03] the Black Sea in 24 hours, after a drone crashed, a fire
[00:19:07] broke out on board the bulk carrier. The crew managed to evacuate.
[00:19:10] Earlier, a Ukrainian drone hit a tanker flying the Greek
[00:19:14] flag after loading oil in the Novorossiysk
[00:19:17] port. The drone first carried out a reconnaissance
[00:19:21] flight in the sea area, and then launched a guided strike
[00:19:25] on the oil tanker. Kyiv continues to systematically attack
[00:19:28] civilian ships near Russian ports. The goal of such attacks is to
[00:19:32] disrupt oil and grain exports, inflate insurance
[00:19:35] rates, and intimidate shipowners. Latvia
[00:19:38] is presenting Brussels with a bill for losses from
[00:19:42] breaking off relations with Russia. The day before, the Latvian Prime Minister
[00:19:45] stated that the European Union owes Riga 7 billion
[00:19:48] euros, pointing to tangible financial losses
[00:19:51] due to anti-Russian sanctions and military assistance to
[00:19:55] Kyiv. The local budget allocates 15 billion euros for military
[00:19:58] needs in the next 7 years, this is approximately 5%
[00:20:02] of GDP annually, but Latvia can only
[00:20:05] afford such belligerence in the analysis of European
[00:20:09] approaches
[00:20:16] to the issue of supporting Ukraine. So far, Brussels
[00:20:20] has not succumbed to Latvian blackmail, but everything could
[00:20:23] change. Riga hints that in the next vote
[00:20:26] on extending anti-Russian sanctions, they may demand
[00:20:29] financial support from the European Union, not excluding the use of
[00:20:33] veto power. This is why the world is on the verge of a global conflict.
[00:20:37] We will see the connection between events together with leading experts and
[00:20:41] political scientists. Watch the program "Trends" tonight on
[00:20:44] Belarus-1, and also on our website Newsby and
[00:20:48] multimedia portal.
[00:22:29] Europe. On the border of Belgium and Germany, 3,000
[00:22:32] hectares have already burned in the nature reserve. The fire was called
[00:22:36] one of the largest in the country's history. Plus, the area
[00:22:39] is a battleground of World War II and there may be unexploded
[00:22:43] ordnance. Specialists from
[00:22:47] Belgium, Germany, Luxembourg were involved in extinguishing. The military and farmers
[00:22:50] are helping them. The fight against fire continues in Spain. Here, firefighters
[00:22:54] and special equipment from France arrived to help. They are extinguishing
[00:22:58] the flames in the Argol area. About
[00:23:01] 16 hectares of land have already been destroyed.
[00:23:04] For France, the current forest fire season has been the most
[00:23:08] catastrophic in the last 77 years. The fire destroyed
[00:23:10] 115,000 hectares of forest. The natural disaster
[00:23:14] provoked a social revolt. The day before, residents of one of
[00:23:17] the villages destroyed by fire booed the
[00:23:20] minister. Angry citizens accused the government of a total failure
[00:23:24] of the rescue operation in protecting exclusively
[00:23:27] elite resorts.
[00:23:40] Croatia also suffered from fires. One person died in the fire,
[00:23:44] another 40 were injured. Now satellites
[00:23:47] are detecting new outbreaks of fires in Serbia and
[00:23:50] Albania, Montenegro. The economic damage from forest fires
[00:23:53] in Europe has already exceeded 19 billion euros. This is
[00:23:57] evidenced by updated calculations of leading world
[00:24:00] experts.
[00:24:07] A Belarusian schoolboy returned home from the North Pole.
[00:24:10] The international expedition, which brought together researchers
[00:24:14] from more than 20 countries, has ended. The project participants got acquainted with
[00:24:18] the amazing nature of the Arctic.
[00:24:50] The jacket is a fairly important part of a polar explorer's wardrobe,
[00:24:54] I believe, because it protects against low temperatures,
[00:24:58] well, in general, the weather conditions that
[00:25:01] met us there were very good. From the polar
[00:25:05] expedition, Tikhon Korneenko returned with a багажом of impressions and
[00:25:08] souvenirs, on the shelf of the gymnasium student there is a whole collection, by which one can
[00:25:12] clearly study geography, among the most valuable exhibits is
[00:25:16] a painting of the nuclear icebreaker "50 Years of Victory", a gift
[00:25:19] from... the ship, a native of Vitebsk region Ruslan
[00:25:22] Sasov. The most vivid impressions were caused by
[00:25:26] reaching the geographical North Pole, because just the realization that
[00:25:29] the whole world is under me is a very
[00:25:33] cool feeling. In the expedition, young explorers
[00:25:36] did not forget to take atmospheric photos and videos for their loved ones.
[00:25:40] Geography teacher Lyudmila Korneenko proudly watches
[00:25:43] her fifteen-year-old grandson raise the Belarusian flag at the top
[00:25:47] of the planet, exclusive content. in the family archive
[00:25:51] my son called me and said that Tikhon won, and
[00:25:55] he participates and goes on the icebreaker
[00:25:58] of knowledge, then of course it was a great
[00:26:01] joy. because the victories of our
[00:26:05] children, the victories of our grandchildren, we, of course,
[00:26:08] rejoice in these victories more than in our own. On board
[00:26:11] the icebreaker, the expedition participants not only admired the Arctic
[00:26:15] landscapes, but also studied the work of the aerospace laboratory,
[00:26:19] conducted scientific experiments, for example, launched the world's first
[00:26:22] return stratospheric platform for Arctic research
[00:26:26] and the Northern Sea Route. The expedition program also found
[00:26:29] a place for creativity, together with a famous Russian writer, young
[00:26:33] researchers created a science fiction
[00:26:36] story, which is already being prepared for publication.
[00:26:39] This is a very warm atmosphere,
[00:26:42] despite the cold weather, this is an absolutely
[00:26:46] fantastic ship, with a fantastic crew
[00:26:50] and absolutely wonderful passengers,
[00:26:53] the trip, of course, went very well, all
[00:26:56] plans were fulfilled, the voyage task was also
[00:26:59] fulfilled, such harsh weather. cold
[00:27:03] like this, ice,
[00:27:06] hummocks, beauty. The international
[00:27:09] expedition not only enriched all participants with valuable knowledge,
[00:27:13] but also brought new acquaintances, and international
[00:27:16] experts became guides to the world of
[00:27:18] science. The topic of peaceful atom was very widely covered during
[00:27:22] this expedition, it is also used in
[00:27:25] medicine, in ecology. I want to promote this agenda,
[00:27:29] tell, convey to...
[00:27:32] guys, what opportunities there are and how to develop yourself. Finding himself in
[00:27:36] a point where all meridians converge, Tikhon was convinced
[00:27:39] of the correctness of his chosen course, to dedicate his life to the development
[00:27:43] of peaceful nuclear technologies. The route is set to meet
[00:27:47] new knowledge and heights. Maria Decan, Alexander Yasilievich,
[00:27:51] First Information.
[00:27:54] Capacity loading and development of the raw material base and prospects
[00:27:57] for increasing the volume of manufactured products, including canned meat
[00:28:01] and baby food. The pace of development of the Orsha
[00:28:04] Meat Canning Plant was reported to the head of government, who visited
[00:28:08] the enterprise during a working trip to the Vitebsk region.
[00:28:12] The enterprise is actively increasing production volumes, plans to create
[00:28:16] new jobs and is banking on exports.
[00:28:19] Anastasia Yaroshchik Kornienko will continue
[00:28:22] the topic.
[00:28:25] Orsha Meat Canning Plant is one of
[00:28:28] the brands of the regional center. And today the enterprise is going through
[00:28:32] a period of efficiency growth,
[00:28:35] the state invested in the modernization of the plant, opportunities
[00:28:38] were created for processing and production of demanded
[00:28:41] products, but it is necessary to develop the raw material zone in order
[00:28:45] to reach a new modern stage of development, a new model of
[00:28:48] trust management with the involvement of the Dzerzhinsky
[00:28:51] agro-industrial complex was proposed to the problematic
[00:28:54] enterprise, how the plant is working now was reported today
[00:28:58] to the prime minister, the focus is on capacity loading and the prospect
[00:29:01] of increasing production volumes, the main type of activity has
[00:29:05] not changed, the Orsha Meat Canning Plant is one
[00:29:08] of the largest producers of canned meat in the country, including for
[00:29:12] baby food. The equipment capacity allows producing
[00:29:15] 40,000 cans per shift. In July of this year,
[00:29:19] 718,000 units were sold. Currently,
[00:29:22] the enterprise produces 12 types of baby
[00:29:25] food. We switched to glass jars in order to make it more convenient
[00:29:29] for the consumer, so to speak. We produce a very large
[00:29:33] volume of canned general purpose
[00:29:36] products, production volumes over
[00:29:38] the last six months increased by about
[00:29:42] 15% for adult
[00:29:44] canned food.
[00:29:46] At the moment, we are launching a new canning production, a new
[00:29:50] workshop, which will allow us to further increase volumes.
[00:29:54] The line was launched six months ahead of schedule, thanks to
[00:29:58] modern equipment, high automation is ensured, which allows reducing.
[00:30:12] time, increasing production volumes, reducing costs for the production of finished products, and this is full saturation of the domestic market with goods, the course towards export also bears fruit. Due to the significant loading of the processing workshop, the
[00:30:16] enterprise received a large volume of raw materials, which is primarily
[00:30:19] directed to the production of canned meat. As for canned
[00:30:23] meat, today the emphasis is shifting to supplying products for export, we do not
[00:30:27] forget, of course, about the domestic market, today the ratio of sales
[00:30:30] volume to the domestic market is 50/50,
[00:30:34] therefore, thanks to the fact that we began to receive an additional volume of raw materials,
[00:30:38] we significantly increased our potential in foreign markets, for
[00:30:42] example, over the current 7 months, 0.5 million more
[00:30:45] cans of canned meat were supplied to the foreign market
[00:30:48] compared to the level of last year. About 600 people
[00:30:52] work at the Orsha enterprise today, they intend to increase the staff with the launch
[00:30:55] of the line at full capacity and work in two shifts. Ahead
[00:30:59] is the implementation of an import-substituting project
[00:31:01] for the enterprise. It will produce pet food in convenient
[00:31:04] pouch packaging, this is a modern format, in demand on the market and

[00:31:12] is built ahead. implementation of plans.

[00:31:18] information.
[00:31:19] In Belarus, the basic
[00:31:22] rate will increase from September. This decision was made
[00:31:25] by the government today. From next month, the indicator
[00:31:29] will be 300 rubles. This is the second increase this year. I note
[00:31:33] that the salary of public sector employees and
[00:31:36] equivalent organizations depends on the basic rate.
[00:31:39] The paid parking zone continues to expand
[00:31:42] in Minsk. Two locations have appeared in the city center where.
[00:31:51] And by the end of August, parking in one large residential area will become paid. Drivers are asked to take changes into account. These are not the only changes. From September 1, the rules for recording payment violations change, and Sergey Ladosev will tell you more right now. Capital motorists should pay increased attention, as the number of paid parking lots in Minsk is increasing, now you will have to pay for a parking space on Starovilyanskaya Street. not the only changes. From
[00:31:55] September 1, the rules for recording payment
[00:31:58] violations change, and Sergei Ladosev will tell you more

[00:32:04] increased attention, as the number of paid parking lots
[00:32:08] in Minsk is increasing, now you will have to pay for a
[00:32:11] parking space on Starovilyanskaya Street.
[00:32:15] A paid parking lot along Mashirov Avenue is located next to the
[00:32:18] Victory Park museum complex. At both locations, blue
[00:32:22] markings have already been applied, and information
[00:32:25] stands have also been installed. That is, another 146 parking spaces
[00:32:29] have become paid. 66 of them are located on Starovilyanskaya
[00:32:32] Street, and another 80 on Mashirov Avenue. In addition, by
[00:32:36] the end of August, a paid zone will be equipped on Tashkinskaya Street near Cheshovka
[00:32:40] Arena. There, specialists are already completing the application of special markings and the installation
[00:32:44] of information signs. This will be our third

[00:33:08] signs. As soon as the road signs are
[00:33:12] installed, the parking lot
[00:33:16] will be put into operation in the established manner, well, this will be approximately by
[00:33:19] September 1. Another important innovation awaits drivers from
[00:33:23] September 1. Capital parking lots completely refuse paper
[00:33:27] receipts. The familiar yellow forms under the wipers will be replaced by
[00:33:30] electronic notifications. Now the entire history of violations will be
[00:33:34] displayed in the car owner's personal account on the
[00:33:37] "Parking by" platform. Payment for unpaid parking can be made in
[00:33:41] a couple of clicks through the ERIP system. The user of the parking lot

[00:33:56] that is, the person must confirm that it is either
[00:33:59] their vehicle or a vehicle

[00:34:13] website, the user can find out
[00:34:17] the number of violations they have through the
[00:34:20] parking website. Automation of control leaves no room
[00:34:23] for forgetfulness, so timely payment for parking is the best way to save
[00:34:27] your budget. Among the pleasant rules, the first 15 minutes of parking and all night time
[00:34:31] remain free. You only need to pay for a parking space in the period from
[00:34:35] 8 am to 6:00 pm. An hour of parking will cost
[00:34:38] from one to 7 rubles. Depending on the zone, season tickets
[00:34:41] are also available. For so-called "hares", the fine
[00:34:45] is unchanged, one base unit, that is, 45 rubles.

[00:36:12] for eighth-grade students is being launched in more than 20
[00:36:16] schools from different regions of the country. For example, the number of math lessons
[00:36:20] in experimental classes will increase to seven per week. The initiative
[00:36:23] is aimed at developing pre-profile training and early career guidance

[00:36:31] dedicated to artificial intelligence
[00:36:34] technologies will appear. In pre-conscription training classes, tenth-graders

[00:36:41] and tactical medicine. Local authorities spent about
[00:36:44] 350 million rubles on school preparations,
[00:36:48] of which about 130 million are

[00:37:11] on the territories, flat structures,
[00:37:15] sports grounds have been put in order. As of today, about
[00:37:19] 85% of educational institutions that should function from September 1st
[00:37:23] have received readiness certificates.
[00:37:26] In accordance with the legislation, institutions must obtain
[00:37:30] readiness certificates by August 20th. An updated version
[00:37:33] of the unified information and educational resource will also start

[00:37:44] creating a personal content library. A built-in
[00:37:47] chat is provided for operative communication between the teacher and each
[00:37:51] student. By the new school year, four new school buildings will open
[00:37:54] in Belarus, three of which are located in the Minsk
[00:37:58] region and one in Mogilev. In total, over

[00:38:21] act of faith, veneration of holy places, and spiritual unity
[00:38:25] of people. By tradition, it starts in Zhurov, and finishes in
[00:38:28] Minsk. Today, participants of the cross procession began their
[00:38:32] journey from the Svyato-Uspensky Male Metropolitan
[00:38:35] Monastery. What were the first kilometers of the All-Belarusian Cross
[00:38:38] Procession like? To find out, Natalya Bordelovskaya walked the path with

[00:40:40] we walked for 5 days, last year we walked the entire 250
[00:40:44] km. This year, as God wills, we don't know yet,

[00:40:50] there is a desire, if you have a desire, no matter what
[00:40:54] obstacles you have, the Lord will still help you.
[00:41:27] To change oneself and inherit the Kingdom of Heaven,
[00:41:31] I wish everyone that each

[00:41:41] They will pass through the Grodno, Brest and Minsk regions. Today,
