[00:00:30] nature has been creating for millennia, here we have
[00:00:33] a trunk of a seven-thousand-year-old bog
[00:00:36] oak, cut into such large
[00:00:39] slabs, length 8 m, width
[00:00:43] in the narrowest part 680
[00:00:46] cm, in the widest part one meter 20,
[00:00:50] one meter 30, so, in this one
[00:00:53] slab there is a cubic meter of material,
[00:00:56] we have not observed such analogues anywhere in the world, to say that... there are
[00:01:00] cracks, these are natural cracks that were formed
[00:01:04] many, many thousands of years ago, but in general
[00:01:07] there are no peripheral cracks at all, not a single one, please
[00:01:10] pay attention, not a single fresh one, this indicates that
[00:01:14] it was dried qualitatively, well, and the fact that, as they say, there is a lot of sand,
[00:01:18] here it is, here it is for you, please, an example, a simple example,
[00:01:22] here is the sand, right here it's death to cutting
[00:01:26] tools, you see, here it is, you knew that...
[00:01:30] In Belarus there is a national treasure that can be
[00:01:33] touched, this is the Xylotheque of BGTU, the only one in the country,
[00:01:36] the largest in Eastern Europe, a collection of wood, over
[00:01:39] 7,000 samples. The heart of the collection are samples of Bog
[00:01:43] Oak, they are arranged in 22 rows by age, from several
[00:01:46] centuries to 11 thousand years, that's how long
[00:01:50] the tree spent in water to acquire its unique
[00:01:53] properties. We can, of course, boast a little about the collection
[00:01:57] of Bog Oak, because we have.
[00:02:30] it for millennia, its palette from chocolate to anthracite,
[00:02:34] as a canvas, an oak that fell into the river, when man was just beginning
[00:02:37] to write history, and this canvas has no copies in the world, such
[00:02:41] drawings are unique, this is not just wood, frozen
[00:02:45] time, which nature created for centuries, such
[00:02:48] a unique resource as bog oak is possessed by only a few countries
[00:02:51] in the world, Belarus among them, in Europe this resource is exhausted,
[00:02:55] in Belarus there are whole underwater oak groves, the age
[00:02:59] of which reaches... 8 thousand years in Europe, for
[00:03:02] example, in one of the localities
[00:03:06] of England, they found it about 10 years ago,
[00:03:10] a five-thousand-year-old bog oak, but it
[00:03:13] caused a terrible stir, and then they made a table out of this trunk
[00:03:16] and dedicated it to the Queen, 5,000
[00:03:20] years, 11 meters into a table,
[00:03:23] you understand, for us, well,
[00:03:26] we can make the same twenty-meter one.
[00:04:18] Belarusians have learned to carefully raise, preserve and
[00:04:21] transform into art, with respect for each line,
[00:04:24] the golden Belarusian bottom holds what others do not have,
[00:04:27] and we are the only ones who know how to...
[00:05:00] a very great achievement, it's not even a life's work, it's
[00:05:02] life, it's life, it's like it
[00:05:06] is.
[00:05:40] Another day of inspection, you personally inspected two battalions,
[00:05:44] what can be said about the results? Well, the inspection
[00:05:47] continues of the combat readiness of the seventh separate
[00:05:50] police brigade. The brigade is very specific, there is, of course,
[00:05:54] a difference from inspecting the armed forces, undoubtedly, the brigade
[00:05:57] is deployed in several cities, even many cities, about seven
[00:06:01] battalions in different localities, each battalion has its own
[00:06:04] tasks, the battalions that we inspected unexpectedly for
[00:06:08] the command, they are brought to combat readiness, as is the entire brigade,
[00:06:11] they perform the same tasks as in everyday life, only
[00:06:15] in an enhanced mode - this is the protection of correctional institutions, in addition
[00:06:19] to this, in each battalion a special reserve is allocated
[00:06:22] for solving suddenly arising tasks, because
[00:06:25] during the inspection we have martial law, various saboteurs are active,
[00:06:29] some mass small, so to speak,
[00:06:32] unrest occurs in populated areas, therefore, personnel, in addition
[00:06:36] to protecting institutions, must be ready to solve suddenly
[00:06:39] arising tasks, searching for saboteurs, I want to say that
[00:06:42] the battalion commanders know their tasks, they are prepared,
[00:06:46] the moral and psychological state of the personnel is quite good, I want to say that
[00:06:49] they ensure the fulfillment of the assigned tasks at a high level, there is an interesting
[00:06:52] specificity, many guys who did not serve in the army, but came by
[00:06:55] contract, on their first contract, there is also such a nuance, but I want to say that they are not
[00:06:59] disappointed, many of them are ready to continue serving in the internal
[00:07:03] troops in the future, there are points that of course will need to be addressed after the inspection,
[00:07:07] these are issues related, so to speak, to the work of the headquarters, to the development
[00:07:11] of various documents. there are issues related to maintaining
[00:07:14] communication and control in wartime, but the most important thing is that
[00:07:18] people understand that they need to train, the situation
[00:07:22] is very difficult, they understand why they are doing this, ahead of them is another
[00:07:25] inspection of their control exercises in fire and physical
[00:07:29] training, because this is the basis for any serviceman to perform tasks,
[00:07:32] well, then based on the results of the inspection we will draw more
[00:07:36] detailed conclusions, we will conduct a general debriefing under the leadership of the Minister of Internal
[00:07:40] Affairs, under the leadership of the commander, well,
[00:07:42] and accordingly we will correct what needs attention, you noted
[00:07:46] some introductory information that the battalion worked on, as part
[00:07:50] of the brigade, they receive it directly here
[00:07:53] now, and how is its
[00:07:56] implementation proceeding, the introductory information comes through various channels, through
[00:08:00] the brigade commander, with each battalion there are round-the-clock representatives
[00:08:04] of the State Security Council, who convey information, for
[00:08:07] example, in the area of the railway station a group of unknown persons with black
[00:08:11] bags was found,
[00:08:18] judging by the log of received introductory orders, where the
[00:08:22] working out of the introductory information is recorded, corresponding groups were appointed,
[00:08:25] reserve groups with dogs, who went
[00:08:28] to the place where these potential
[00:08:32] offenders, saboteurs, were found, they organized
[00:08:35] their search, but they did not detain anyone, but nevertheless the reaction of the battalion
[00:08:38] commander to these introductory instructions exists.
[00:08:42] There are other various introductory instructions in the forest massif on the outskirts of Orsha, for example, a group of unknown persons was found,
[00:08:46] and really there are servicemen of special
[00:08:49] operations forces playing along, so we see if the battalion commander reacted
[00:08:53] to this, if he reported this information, received by the senior commander of the
[00:08:57] Brigade or not, that is, there is a whole chain, there will be no simple situation,
[00:09:01] simply performing tasks, for example, guarding some objects,
[00:09:04] this will naturally not happen, but there must be a free reserve that must
[00:09:08] react to other changes in the situation, that's what...
[00:09:42] there are people in uniform, they must complete the task, ensure the peaceful labor of our
[00:09:46] citizens, the peaceful life of our citizens, therefore they must always be
[00:09:50] ready for this, more detailed, so to speak, directly professional
[00:09:53] skills, physical training we will assess during control
[00:09:56] exercises according to the standards that exist today in the internal troops, were
[00:10:00] conscripted into the police brigade
[00:10:03] reservists, did they pass the mobilization issue for them too, yes, in parallel with this,
[00:10:07] the event of the seventh brigade being brought to full combat readiness,
[00:10:10] including with mobilization, is taking place. Several units, a special
[00:10:14] purpose company, chemical protection units, engineer-sapper
[00:10:18] detachment are mobilized today, these units
[00:10:21] are now deployed in Polotsk, they are currently undergoing a phase.
[00:10:55] mobilized, brought to combat readiness, began to work on cohesion,
[00:10:58] that is, despite the established deadlines,
[00:11:02] which they have two weeks, they coped in one day, so
[00:11:06] yes, this indicates that in everyday life in
[00:11:09] the internal troops, the issue of studying the registration of personnel
[00:11:12] is given serious attention and importance,
[00:11:16] I know that in their off-duty hours they invite
[00:11:19] these servicemen to military units, conduct
[00:11:22] training with them, those who should come to the formation of this or
[00:11:26] that unit during the war, therefore these short deadlines, they
[00:11:29] showed, demonstrated, their operational efficiency in
[00:11:33] solving these tasks. You noted some gaps, yes, in
[00:11:37] the training of the battalion or the brigade, and how does the commander of
[00:11:41] the internal troops react to this? Well, you see, we arrived with you today
[00:11:44] unexpectedly, they were not expecting us today in Orsha, neither in
[00:11:48] the first battalion, nor in the second battalion, naturally, the commander
[00:11:52] immediately reported to the brigade commander, you saw it on the phone.
[00:12:03] This doesn't need to be done, there is a commander, he has a command post, he has a very
[00:12:07] large area where his units are located, so we discussed
[00:12:11] with the commander over the phone those moments that
[00:12:14] need to be looked at more carefully, the command of the internal
[00:12:17] troops understands all these things and reacts correctly,
[00:12:21] timely and correctly, so we continue
[00:12:24] the inspection. We continue the inspection further, we will see how they will act during
[00:12:28] the exercises, during the control classes, but today - the
[00:12:31] mood of the people, the preparation that we saw
[00:12:35] today, well, it is quite inspiring and pleasing, so to speak.
[00:13:00] Over time, someone moved to a big city, someone retired,
[00:13:03] and the housing remained empty. Alexander
[00:13:06] Lukashenko is convinced that a second life for abandoned houses
[00:13:10] is possible, especially since interest in houses in the village
[00:13:13] is growing, and not only among Belarusians. Children can
[00:13:16] walk on the ground and themselves,
[00:13:19] stomp around somewhere, and there are enough free places,
[00:13:22] put things in order in the village, involve houses in... circulation,
[00:13:25] offer a discount on sale to find new
[00:13:28] owners, the local authorities must follow these
[00:13:31] tasks.
[00:13:34] To attract workers, they decided to use their own
[00:13:37] housing stock, so three young specialists appeared
[00:13:40] in the household. They made it comfortable for us to live,
[00:13:44] everything was bought especially for us, furniture also here, everything in
[00:13:48] the kitchen, everything was adapted for us,
[00:13:50] adjusted.
[00:13:53] Agrotown Kosovka. The house is spacious, the hostess does not complain,
[00:13:57] a large veranda, a separate boiler room, kitchen, three rooms,
[00:14:00] in their own garden, well, how can it compare with the city? They are settling
[00:14:03] in Kosovka and this house, in spring a family
[00:14:07] of livestock breeders moved in here, the house has greatly changed, they want to put
[00:14:10] down roots here, this is correct life
[00:14:13] logic, to preserve the village means to preserve
[00:14:17] the country, how they solve their problematic issues in various
[00:14:20] spheres, under the control of the president, watch on
