[00:02:06] Good evening, Panorama is live on air, and in the studio is Ekaterina Tikhomirova, and
[00:02:10] about the main events of this Tuesday. Minsk and
[00:02:13] the Russian industrial giant are joining forces, a tandem of unique
[00:02:16] competencies and technologies of the future. This and more were discussed at the Independence
[00:02:20] Palace. After the special envoys, Putin and Trump
[00:02:24] spoke on the phone after Kushner's and Litvinov's visits to Moscow
[00:02:27] and Kiev. And a symbol of unity in...
[00:02:34] Unity, a column of patriots will travel along the historical
[00:02:37] route. More details from my
[00:02:40] colleagues. BelAZ and Norilsk Nickel, innovative
[00:02:43] technologies in our large-scale production, and generally the participation of
[00:02:46] Russian companies in joint projects were discussed today at
[00:02:49] the Independence Palace. We will tell you
[00:02:51] everything in Panorama. Victory is a shared achievement,
[00:02:55] preserving memory is a sacred duty. A unique concert was presented
[00:02:59] in St. Petersburg.
[00:03:01] Let's revive history, let's remember what is impossible
[00:03:04] to forget. The demand for Belarusian goods in
[00:03:07] the world market. Foreign exchange earnings from agricultural product sales
[00:03:11] grew by approximately a quarter compared to last year's level. We will
[00:03:15] tell you about the creation and export of Belarusian butter
[00:03:18] in the material.
[00:03:21] Minsk is a city for all seasons. The capital is preparing to brightly
[00:03:24] and grandly celebrate its 959th
[00:03:27] birthday. The festive program in our
[00:03:30] story. The Territorial Recruitment Center in Ukraine is not
[00:03:33] an abbreviation, it's a verdict, and if Ukrainians do not stop
[00:03:37] this outrage today, then in a year there will be no one to defend
[00:03:41] the motherland. About this in the evening
[00:03:43] broadcast.
[00:03:46] Innovative technologies, projects of the future, global
[00:03:49] cooperation with one of the largest Russian companies.
[00:03:53] At the Palace of Independence today, the President received a well-known
[00:03:56] entrepreneur in business circles, Vladimir Potanin.
[00:05:01] and joint projects for servicing and creating
[00:05:04] new equipment in the Krasnoyarsk Krai, this
[00:05:07] is also an interesting and promising project for us, and
[00:05:11] since you...
[00:05:28] and the IT sector, we know how to do some things in Belarus, you also know perfectly well what we can do, so we are open to cooperation and would like your successful company, even in these difficult
[00:05:32] times, to cooperate with
[00:06:12] during this trip, we manage to turn common plans
[00:06:15] into concrete projects, you already mentioned
[00:06:19] BelAZ, we signed an agreement yesterday, this
[00:06:23] allows us to solve not only the issue of saturating our enterprise with mining
[00:06:27] equipment, but joint cooperation will allow us to create a new
[00:06:30] line of equipment, which, according to our calculations, in our
[00:06:34] hopes, will successfully compete with the best
[00:06:37] samples, because we add elements of
[00:06:40] work related to unmanned vehicles.
[00:08:42] with joint efforts to maintain positions in markets
[00:08:46] from which we, like Russia and Belarus,
[00:08:49] are trying to be pushed out, and accordingly, to enter new
[00:08:52] markets, and speaking in sporting terms, in good shape, so
[00:08:56] that when, so to speak, the whistle blows and a new, so
[00:09:00] to speak, round of competitions is announced, to perform in them
[00:09:03] with dignity. Also, Vladimir Potanin drew attention
[00:09:07] to a thorough, thoughtful approach to developing
[00:09:10] cooperation. According to him, there is quite a lot.
[00:10:14] And in St. Petersburg today, a unique project was presented: "Concert Requiem
[00:10:17] Every Third." More than 100 Belarusian artists took the
[00:10:20] stage to honor the memory of the victims and heroes of the Great Patriotic War,
[00:10:25] and to tell about the unacceptability of the revival of Nazism. The date
[00:10:28] was not chosen by chance. September 8th is the day of remembrance for the victims
[00:10:31] of the Leningrad Blockade. Ilona Volynets on common history
[00:10:35] and memory. The Siege of Leningrad and the tragedy
[00:10:39] of Belarus: two sides of the same coin. During the Great Patriotic War,
[00:10:43] representatives of both nations fought shoulder to shoulder.
[00:10:46] The memory of those terrible events is preserved at the Piskarevskoye cemetery in
[00:10:49] St. Petersburg, a place of mass burial, where
[00:10:53] thousands rest. Both Russians
[00:10:55] and Belarusians. Today, on the eighty-fifth anniversary of the beginning of the Leningrad
[00:10:59] blockade, flowers were laid at the monument. Victory is a shared
[00:11:02] achievement, preserving memory is a sacred
[00:11:05] duty.
[00:11:14] Shoulder to shoulder, our peoples walk in peaceful
[00:11:17] times. The foundation of people's well-being is the economy. This was
[00:11:21] already discussed at the meeting of the head of the administration of the President of Belarus with the governor
[00:11:25] of the Leningrad region. Trade turnover over 5 years has doubled.
[00:11:28] Our products are here in abundance, and Belarusian
[00:11:32] passenger transport regularly runs on city streets.
[00:11:35] Many new projects have appeared. The parties are building
[00:11:38] joint ventures and modernizing infrastructure. For
[00:11:41] example, Belarusians have successfully started to engage in the construction of
[00:11:45] distribution gas pipelines. Our
[00:11:47] companies were also offered to participate in the project for
[00:11:51] the construction of the Vysokoye grain terminal.
[00:11:55] The clean forest program, the Leningrad region is actively
[00:11:58] developing its timber industry complex, as Alexandrovich correctly
[00:12:02] noted today, the region has the same plans that the Republic of Belarus
[00:12:06] had at one time, in addition to actually harvesting
[00:12:09] timber for logging, this
[00:12:12] is the development of boiler houses using alternative, or as we call them in Belarus,
[00:12:16] local types of fuel, the main of which are
[00:12:19] wood chips and wood pellets, we have a very successful
[00:12:22] program, if this experience works.
[00:12:33] specialized equipment for the Leningrad region, we will definitely
[00:12:37] continue this work, we have a very high percentage
[00:12:39] of completion of the previous two roadmaps, this was
[00:12:42] noted by the presidents of our countries, that
[00:12:45] it is indeed a very highly effective cooperation. On
[00:12:49] a significant date for St. Petersburg, Belarusians brought a unique project,
[00:12:52] a concert every third. This is a synthesis
[00:12:55] of a musical performance and a theatrical production with
[00:12:58] elements of documentary cinema, based on rare
[00:13:02] photo and video documents related to different periods of
[00:13:05] the war. You know, honestly, when creating the project, we did
[00:13:09] not expect it to be so in demand. Perhaps
[00:13:13] the times dictate such conditions that such projects are needed,
[00:13:16] they are needed not only in our country, but also in the Russian Federation,
[00:13:20] and we are glad that our project finds a response in the hearts
[00:13:23] of Russian viewers. And that more and more Russian cities invite us to
[00:13:27] show this project on their venues. On stage are distinguished
[00:13:31] collectives, artists, soloists, a total of over 100 participants aged
[00:13:34] 6 to 70 years old, and no, they are not playing, they are literally
[00:13:38] reliving those terrible days again.
[00:13:41] This is still history, the history of our ancestors,
[00:13:45] the history of our countries, and we, as
[00:13:48] the younger generation, I believe that we are obliged
[00:13:52] to preserve it, to remember. And
[00:13:56] pass it on to the younger generation, to our children, for any
[00:13:59] composer, for any author, this is great
[00:14:02] happiness, to write works
[00:14:05] that, well, I will not be afraid to say it, and I
[00:14:09] want to believe and hope that they will remain for
[00:14:12] centuries, that is, this is the music that is not
[00:14:15] fleeting. In parallel, viewers get acquainted with two exhibitions:
[00:14:18] the fates of the dead can be traced through personal photos, letters,
[00:14:22] postcards, with the help of an interactive stand... the Partisans of
[00:14:25] Belarus project, you can find your relative among the partisans and
[00:14:29] underground fighters of Belarus. We came to this requiem concert so that
[00:14:33] children would remember, know what trouble our country had, what
[00:14:36] our people went through, what small children and old people went through,
[00:14:40] how many people died, so that we can now stand here under
[00:14:44] a peaceful sky, so that we can work, look at the
[00:14:47] sun, so that our children can grow up. Even more facts
[00:14:51] and truth in a series of Belarusian books about the Great Patriotic War.
[00:14:55] They were donated to the State Memorial Museum of Defense and
[00:14:58] Blockade of Leningrad. These books represent not only
[00:15:01] scientific and historical value,
[00:15:05] but are also the most important instrument in preserving
[00:15:07] historical memory, historical truth about the Great
[00:15:11] Patriotic War. A people who does not remember and honor
[00:15:15] its memory, its history, has no future. The
[00:15:18] Requiem concert every third is not just a performance, it is
[00:15:22] a reminder of the price of victory and an appeal not to... allow
[00:15:25] the revival of Nazism, and today, when the hall
[00:15:29] freezes to the sounds of war songs, we again
[00:15:32] realize that this is our common history, and it
[00:15:35] cannot be forgotten. Ilona.
[00:15:44] heard a report from the State Secretary of the Security
[00:15:47] Council, Alexander Valfovich. The head of state
[00:15:50] was informed about the progress of the combat readiness inspection of units and
[00:15:54] military units of the Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
[00:15:57] In addition, during the report, personnel issues in the
[00:16:00] armed forces were discussed. Also today, the president heard
[00:16:03] a report from the chairman of the Mogilev Regional Executive Committee, Anatoly.
[00:16:07] Alexander Lukashenka inquired in detail about the results of
[00:16:11] the harvesting of grain and leguminous crops in the Mogilev region. During
[00:16:14] the report, special attention was paid to three farms
[00:16:18] in the region that are harvesting the last hectares of late
[00:16:21] crops. The head of state paid special attention to the situation with
[00:16:25] personnel and work in this direction. A separate topic of
[00:16:28] the report by the head of the Mogilev region was the preparation for
[00:16:31] the upcoming seminar in the Shklov district. It
[00:16:34] is planned to be held at one of its facilities.
[00:16:39] Directive No. 1 on measures to strengthen
[00:16:43] public security and discipline has been updated. The decree was
[00:16:46] signed today by the president. The document takes into account modern risks
[00:16:50] and specifically provides for security measures in
[00:16:53] the virtual environment. Among the priorities are public order
[00:16:56] protection, information security, the fight against
[00:16:59] extremism and illegal drug trafficking, as well as
[00:17:03] migration control, road safety, and population protection in
[00:17:06] emergency situations. Also in the spotlight are environmental
[00:17:10] safety, sanitary and epidemiological
[00:17:13] well-being of the population, and labor safety.
[00:17:16] The government, regional executive committees,
[00:17:19] and Minsk City Executive Committee are still
[00:17:22] responsible for implementing the directive. The
[00:17:24] prosecutor's office will monitor its implementation.
[00:17:34] The genetic code of Belarusians is based on peacefulness, order,
[00:17:37] justice, and respect for history. These qualities
[00:17:40] have been formed over centuries under the influence of a difficult historical fate. And
[00:17:44] this was discussed today, among other things, at the Bobruisk Technological College. An
[00:17:47] open dialogue brought together young people within the framework
[00:17:51] of the "Belarus United" campaign. For us, this is
[00:17:53] , of course, communication, communication on an equal footing with young people. And the most important
[00:17:57] thing for us is to convey the history of this holiday, how
[00:18:01] long this moment was awaited, the liberation of Western
[00:18:05] Belarus, because as soon as we forget.
[00:18:11] to sincerely convey what love for the homeland is, how important it is to
[00:18:14] work for the homeland, what you are doing all this for,
[00:18:18] so that no mistakes are made and so that the guys leave with
[00:18:21] a firm understanding that our country is always for
[00:18:25] us, it will support us, but we also
[00:18:28] need to develop, love, and know our history to be that
[00:18:32] united. An open dialogue about the lessons
[00:18:35] of history, about how important it is to feel the independence of one's country,
[00:18:39] took place today at the Gantsevichi Agrarian College. Speakers
[00:18:42] spoke about the significance of the National Unity Day and how important it is for
[00:18:46] Belarusians to restore historical
[00:18:49] justice. The event was very bright,
[00:18:52] open, everyone was very active, we
[00:18:56] discussed the question of being united in our
[00:19:00] large Belarusian family, there was an exchange of opinions
[00:19:04] between young people. It was very easy and pleasant to communicate.
[00:19:37] unity brought participants to the agro-town of Lenin, Zhitkovichi
[00:19:41] district. It was here, on the bank of the Sluch river, that the column of patriots made
[00:19:44] a stop at a place that has sacred significance for the history of Belarus:
[00:19:48] the former lines of the state border of
[00:19:51] 1921-1939. The participants
[00:19:54] of the motor rally - representatives of regional organizations, patriots of Belarus
[00:19:57] from Brest, Mogilev, as well as activists from Zhitkovichi,
[00:20:01] Slutsk and Gantsevichi districts, on the eve of National Unity Day,
[00:21:36] Belarus will provide humanitarian aid to Venezuela. The Council of Ministers of our
[00:21:40] country, with the consent of the head of state, decided to
[00:21:43] allocate aid in the amount of 1 million rubles. Belarus
[00:21:47] took this step to help Venezuela with
[00:21:50] the consequences of the devastating earthquakes that occurred on
[00:21:53] June 24. The resolution, signed
[00:21:56] by the Prime Minister, states that the humanitarian cargo will
[00:22:00] include equipment for life support,
[00:22:03] motor pumps, a compressor station, as well as 12 tons of
[00:22:06] medical products. Venezuela is still
[00:22:10] busy searching for earthquake victims. According to official data,
[00:22:13] 6,125 people died, but these figures are not
[00:22:17] final. The clearing of rubble is still
[00:22:20] ongoing. The presidents of Russia and the USA are in contact again.
[00:22:23] Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump held a telephone conversation.
[00:22:27] The leaders discussed the prospects for concluding peace in Ukraine and exchanged
[00:22:30] views on the results of Litvinov's and Kushner's trips to
[00:22:34] Moscow and Kiev. The presidents are satisfied with these results.
[00:22:38] Putin also reported objective data on the progress of the military
[00:22:41] operation. Trump, in turn, emphasized that he
[00:22:44] is interested in achieving peace before the end of his presidential
[00:22:47] term. According to him, this will allow
[00:22:51] full-scale restoration of relations between America and
[00:22:54] Russia. The presidents agreed to remain in contact
[00:23:01] aimed at isolating transit transport
[00:23:05] links with eastern neighbors. The Latvian government
[00:23:08] intends to introduce three hundred percent duties on
[00:23:11] the processing and transportation of grain products from Belarus and
[00:23:15] Russia. The head of the Ministry of Agriculture of neighboring Lithuania
[00:23:18] openly indicated the inconsistency of such steps with
[00:23:22] international law and the norms of the European Union itself.
[00:23:26] In parallel, the Ministry of Transport developed a draft for the complete cessation of
[00:23:29] regular bus passenger service to Belarus and
[00:23:32] Russia, including even transit
[00:23:34] routes.
[00:23:37] And the European Commission, in violation of its own rules, allowed Ukraine
[00:23:41] to purchase missiles for Patriot air defense systems. Money for
[00:23:44] American weapons will be allocated from the European Union fund, the funds
[00:23:48] of which were intended to be spent on European products.
[00:23:52] Kyiv initially requested around 2 billion euros,
[00:23:55] based on the statement of the head of the European Commission, it will receive
[00:23:58] 3.4 billion. Ursula von der Leyen also reminded that these
[00:24:02] funds are allocated in addition to previous payments
[00:24:05] within the framework of European support programs, including the recently
[00:24:09] agreed tranche of 8.4 billion, which
[00:24:12] will go to air defense systems, radars, and
[00:24:15] ammunition.
[00:24:21] Corruption in the water supply system. The Department of Financial
[00:24:25] Investigations of the State Control Committee, together with the Prosecutor General's Office, revealed
[00:24:29] numerous cases of bribery by managers of several
[00:24:32] enterprises of the water utility system in three regions: Brest, Gomel
[00:24:36] and Minsk. The Prosecutor General's Office initiated four
[00:24:39] criminal cases. The total amount of illegal gratitude
[00:24:43] and remuneration according to the case materials is more than 140,000
[00:24:46] rubles. Criminal facts were uncovered during anti-corruption measures
[00:24:50] to control the expenditure of budget funds,
[00:24:53] in particular, the financing of the state program "Comfortable Housing
[00:24:57] and Favorable Environment" was checked, which is aimed at creating comfortable
[00:25:01] living conditions and improving the quality of housing and communal
[00:25:04] services. Victoria Radevich will tell you more.
[00:25:07] She states that in the period from
[00:25:11] 2021 to 2022, I
[00:25:14] received a bribe in the amount of
[00:25:17] 300 dollars
[00:25:20] for helping them with equipment in their work.
[00:25:24] This is a confession from one of the defendants in the bribery case recorded
[00:25:27] by operatives of the Department of Financial Investigations for the Gomel region. When
[00:25:30] they came to him with evidence, the man had to recall all the cases when
[00:25:34] he took illegal remuneration from his regular partners. At
[00:25:38] various times, I gave
[00:25:41] as remuneration, gratitude, bribes
[00:25:45] to various heads of Belarusian water utilities.
[00:25:48] белорусских водоканалов.
[00:25:57] Kickbacks were put on stream, he will also tell about this in a conversation with
[00:26:01] law enforcement officials. The amounts were
[00:26:04] paid for concluding construction and installation work
[00:26:08] contracts, product supply contracts, and
[00:26:11] timely payment for completed work. According to the case materials,
[00:26:15] officials of Brest, Maladzechna, and Gomel communal
[00:26:18] enterprises providing water supply and
[00:26:22] wastewater disposal services to the population were involved in corruption cases. They
[00:26:25] had established cooperation with certain businessmen whose interests they
[00:26:28] lobbied for years, and for this they received their share.
[00:26:33] Officials of several enterprises of the state
[00:26:36] production association Belvodokanal systematically
[00:26:40] received illegal monetary rewards and
[00:26:43] bribes from two representatives of commercial
[00:26:46] structures in the city of Gomel and the city of Minsk for
[00:26:50] the supply of pumping equipment, the provision of construction
[00:26:53] facilities, equipment rental, and also for
[00:26:56] the timely conclusion of contracts and payment for them. Agreements,
[00:27:00] as a rule, were based on a certain percentage on average. only 2% of
[00:27:03] the cost of the work performed and the equipment supplied, but this was
[00:27:06] quite enough, ranging from 700 to 120,000
[00:27:10] rubles. Moreover, the initiative to transfer bribes came from both the official
[00:27:14] and the businessman. Separate cases of such
[00:27:18] informal cooperation lasted for 7 years,
[00:27:21] the amounts of illegally received remuneration reached
[00:27:24] 60,000 rubles per bribe-taker, director
[00:27:28] and his deputy. Based on the results of the inspection conducted
[00:27:31] jointly by the Department of Financial Investigations
[00:27:35] of the State Control Committee for the Gomel region, the Department for Combating
[00:27:38] Corruption and Organized Crime of the Prosecutor General's Office
[00:27:42] initiated four criminal cases on receiving bribes by officials
[00:27:46] of water utilities, under parts one, two and three of
[00:27:49] Article 430 of the Criminal Code. The guilt of officials in
[00:27:53] corruption crimes is confirmed, among other things, by the materials
[00:27:56] of the preliminary investigation. To organize the preliminary investigation,
[00:28:00] the Prosecutor General's Office sent the criminal cases to the territorial
[00:28:04] division of the Investigative Committee. The progress of their
[00:28:07] investigation is under control. They did not refuse
[00:28:10] additional, albeit illegal, earnings, they succumbed
[00:28:13] to temptation. All suspects admitted to bribery,
[00:28:17] cooperated with the investigation, and the illegally obtained income has already been
[00:28:21] fully reimbursed. However, it cannot be ruled out that additional episodes may emerge in the case.
[00:28:24] The investigation is still ongoing. Victoria Radevich,
[00:28:28] Anatoly Dolotovsky, First
[00:28:29] Information.
[00:28:38] Tomorrow, the fifth exhibition of Chinese goods and
[00:28:41] services will open. This is the largest event for the development of business contacts between
[00:28:45] Belarus and the Celestial Empire. Today, on the eve of the grand opening,
[00:28:49] businesses from our countries are meeting in an informal setting.
[00:28:52] The Great Stone Industrial Park served as the venue, the largest free economic
[00:28:56] zone outside of China. There are already
[00:28:59] more than 170 residents from 15 countries here.
[00:30:05] we know the right, the task is to establish cooperation, we need concrete agreements, we sincerely
[00:30:08] hope for a fruitful dialogue.
[00:30:12] Businesses of the two countries are socially responsible, the project "Echo
[00:30:15] of Silence, paintings by children with severe hearing impairments" was presented to the forum
[00:30:18] participants. Products
[00:30:21] and goods made in Belarus are a guarantee of quality, natural composition, and
[00:30:25] accessibility, not only in our markets, but in foreign
[00:30:29] countries. The gross output of agricultural products is
[00:30:32] 13% compared to last year's level. The plans for this year are
[00:30:36] to surpass the record level of 10 billion dollars in food
[00:30:39] exports, and we are moving towards that. Foreign exchange
[00:30:43] earnings from sales have already grown by approximately a quarter. Belarus
[00:30:46] maintains a high bar and demand for goods in the world
[00:30:50] market. The sale of butter is also showing a positive
[00:30:53] trend. Previously, the product accumulated in
[00:30:56] warehouses. As a concrete example, Slutsk Cheese
[00:31:00] Combine, the enterprise for the first half of the year.
[00:31:45] pairing and separating milk into two fractions:
[00:31:48] skim milk and cream. The cream obtained
[00:31:52] from this milk goes to the production of our
[00:31:55] sweet cream butter. It undergoes
[00:31:58] the pasteurization stage, then the cream goes into
[00:32:01] tanks, where it undergoes the physical maturation
[00:32:04] stage, then it undergoes heating and feeding to
[00:32:07] the continuous churning
[00:32:10] butter machine. The coefficient for creating quality
[00:32:13] butter is as follows: 20 kg of milk and 2
[00:32:17] kg of cream, the main fat content indicators are from
[00:32:20] 70 to 82.5%.
[00:32:24] And I will note, here at the cheese factory, about
[00:32:27] 25 tons of butter are produced
[00:32:30] daily, these are the three most
[00:32:32] recognizable brands in the country. The system
[00:32:36] here is fully automated, and the technology is waste-free, cream
[00:32:39] goes to butter, skimmed milk to drying. By the way, the plant
[00:32:43] produces not only regular, but also lactose-free butter.
[00:32:46] Lactose-free butter - you know, in
[00:32:50] the production process the lactase enzyme is added, which
[00:32:53] breaks down lactose, and we
[00:32:56] get this very lactose-free sweet cream
[00:33:00] butter. And the fat content depends only on
[00:33:03] the consumer's preference, what he
[00:33:06] chooses, the taste profile will remain the same.
[00:33:10] Slutsk Cheese Combine cooperates with
[00:33:13] partners in more than 30 countries, at the moment it is
[00:33:16] 34 countries around the world, including exporting
[00:33:20] butter, butter is our priority product today,
[00:33:24] for 2026, in the first half of the year, 9.9 tons
[00:33:28] of butter were sold, traditionally our main
[00:33:31] partner is the Russian Federation, to which we sent more than
[00:33:34] 6.00 tons of butter, also Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan,
[00:33:38] Azerbaijan, all CIS and
[00:33:42] EEU countries this year.
[00:33:45] Interestingly, there were deliveries to countries such as India, we were probably the first
[00:33:48] in Belarus to make a large delivery of butter to India, about
[00:33:52] 2.0 tons, and also we tried to export to
[00:33:55] Egypt, Liberia, and today we are developing
[00:33:59] a plan for deliveries to Indonesia. Slutsk
[00:34:01] Cheese Combine also produces a number of dairy products: hard
[00:34:05] cheeses, soft and processed cheeses, as well as ice cream, mayonnaise, whole milk
[00:34:09] products and dry milk products. Production
[00:34:12] volumes allow not only to close needs within the market, but also
[00:34:15] for export. Today, the situation with the export
[00:34:19] of butter to foreign countries has shown
[00:34:22] positive dynamics. Inventory in warehouses is significantly decreasing,
[00:34:26] and this is despite milk production growing by almost
[00:34:29] 3% compared to last
[00:34:32] year. Such positive dynamics are also due to
[00:34:36] Belarus expanding its geography of partner countries. Now we
[00:34:39] sell our products not only to CIS countries, but also
[00:34:43] beyond. The quality of our products
[00:34:46] no longer needs to be proven abroad, how
[00:34:50] highly it is valued. This
[00:34:53] year we were subjected to serious criticism last
[00:34:57] year from the head of state regarding the
[00:35:00] reduction of butter stocks, I
[00:35:03] want to report that we have been experiencing a decrease
[00:35:07] since the beginning of the year, at the beginning
[00:35:10] of the year we had significant butter stocks, about
[00:35:13] 10,000 tons.
[00:35:16] We have reduced butter production, we are now selling more butter than we produce,
[00:35:19] as a rule, this is outside the CIS countries, this includes
[00:35:23] African countries, and
[00:35:26] Indonesia, we recently visited this country, and in
[00:35:30] general, Central Asia, that is, products are selling very, very well,
[00:35:34] in demand. The primary task of the food sector is to meet the needs
[00:35:37] of the domestic market, however, expanding export supplies
[00:35:41] is an indicator of quality, competitiveness, and image.
[00:36:52] with women who are in difficult life situations as part of the
[00:36:55] "Helping Hand" project.
[00:37:27] A true bridge of mercy and a reliable partner of the state in
[00:37:30] solving social problems. The twenty-seventh congress of the Belarusian Red
[00:37:34] Cross united delegates from all over the country to summarize
[00:37:37] large-scale work and approve the development vector for
[00:37:41] the future. Special emphasis is placed on attracting youth, supporting
[00:37:44] social initiatives and volunteer ideas. The focus
[00:37:47] is on elderly people, children with developmental disabilities, all those
[00:37:51] who especially need support. About
[00:37:54] the main priorities of the largest humanitarian movement.
[00:38:01] hundreds of delegates from all corners of the republic,
[00:38:04] representatives of government bodies, international
[00:38:07] partners are defining today the strategic priorities
[00:38:11] for the development of the Belarusian Red Cross for the next
[00:38:14] five-year period. The task is to multiply the accumulated experience
[00:38:17] and ensure that humanitarian aid is even more
[00:38:21] accessible and operational. The Belarusian Red Cross
[00:38:24] is the largest charitable organization in the country.
[00:39:05] Yes, these are crisis situations on the Belarusian-Polish border, on the Belarusian-Ukrainian border, then working with forced migrants from Ukraine
[00:39:09] who were and are currently in the Republic of
[00:39:12] Belarus. At the same time, we did not forget
[00:39:15] to expand and develop our infrastructure. We
[00:39:19] realized that without crisis centers, which we began to open in all
[00:39:22] regions in 2022, and which are now
[00:39:26] functioning, it would have been difficult for us to cope
[00:39:29] with the influx of various migrants
[00:39:33] needing assistance from among
[00:39:59] we have a very well-developed direction for social
[00:40:03] orders. We understand that there is an aging population
[00:40:06] in the region, in our Vitebsk. We have the most
[00:40:10] elderly citizens, so we need to develop
[00:40:13] medical services. Volunteer activity has become one
[00:40:17] of the key directions of the organization's activity. People
[00:40:21] come to us with their initiatives, with their desire
[00:40:24] to help, and actively implement them. In
[00:40:27] the humanitarian field, we started to interact a lot
[00:40:31] with the healthcare system, the social protection system,
[00:40:35] and we are developing volunteer groups in educational
[00:40:38] institutions. I would like to note that today the Belarusian Red Cross
[00:40:42] is a reliable bridge between those who need care and those
[00:40:45] who are ready to provide help. The organization acts as a loyal
[00:40:49] partner of the state in solving important social problems. The
[00:40:53] Belarusian Red Cross has more than a million members,
[00:40:56] which is about 12% of our country's population.
