[00:00:30] and we noticed that these plots have a significant
[00:00:34] crop set, and we have been gradually increasing
[00:00:38] the volume of
[00:00:41] liming acidic plots for
[00:00:44] probably the last two years. The manager and I decided
[00:00:47] last year to purchase a machine, an aggregate for
[00:00:50] applying dolomite flour. In recent
[00:00:53] years, due to the critical moisture
[00:00:57] content, we switched to no-till soil cultivation. For these
[00:01:00] purposes, we purchased
[00:01:03] an additional Amkador
[00:01:06] unit. The machine and tractor fleet has been replenished with dozens of new units in just the
[00:01:09] last five years: power-intensive tractors,
[00:01:13] cultivators, seeders, and this is a necessity, because the
[00:01:16] goals are ambitious. The main income of the farm is the sale of livestock
[00:01:19] products. We do not chase after gross output at any
[00:01:22] how much we can
[00:01:25] increase the volume of fertilizer application, today it is difficult
[00:01:29] to maneuver. Fertilizer prices are rising, weather
[00:01:32] conditions are becoming more difficult and we need
[00:01:35] to look, every day we need to look for something, what you can
[00:01:39] do tomorrow to get more profitable
[00:01:42] final products, to be able to
[00:01:45] raise people's salaries, purchase new
[00:01:49] equipment. Behind every good result is hard work by
[00:01:51] professionals and a competent leader with three
[00:01:55] decades of experience, and today he is rightly an honored worker of the country's
[00:01:59] agriculture. Sofia, Ruslan Selyuk, First
[00:02:02] Information.
[00:02:04] On the eve of their professional holiday, employees of the
[00:02:07] Investigation Committee visited the Palace of Independence for an
[00:02:10] excursion. Young specialists who took the oath today, as
[00:02:14] well as the best investigators from different regions of the country, who were awarded
[00:02:18] state and departmental awards, were invited to see the
[00:02:21] decorations of the main political events. This was a unique
[00:02:25] gift for them. On September 12, our country will celebrate
[00:02:28] the fifteenth anniversary of the
[00:02:30] Investigation Committee. Today, the employees of the Investigative Committee bear the highest
[00:02:34] responsibility for maintaining law and order in the country. Investigators
[00:02:37] daily carry out painstaking work to clarify all
[00:02:40] the circumstances of every crime. In their hands
[00:02:43] are some of the most high-profile and resonant criminal cases in the country. Every
[00:02:47] year, investigators develop new forms of combating crime that
[00:02:51] yield results.
[00:02:54] The Palace of Independence, at least for me, is the heart of our
[00:02:58] homeland, the place where the head of state works, where
[00:03:01] key decisions are made regarding
[00:03:04] the Republic of Belarus and processes taking place in
[00:03:08] the world. We see the interiors of the Palace of Independence not only
[00:03:11] in the news of republican media, but also
[00:03:14] representatives of world news agencies have visited
[00:03:18] the Palace of Independence, and I think that this
[00:03:21] is undoubtedly a symbol of the sovereignty and
[00:03:24] independence of our state. I
[00:03:27] think that investigators, having visited two.
[00:04:00] which combine national and
[00:04:03] cultural, historical motifs. It was here that
[00:04:07] rather important political events took place, including
[00:04:10] negotiations. I am very proud of my country and,
[00:04:14] of course, the profession I have chosen.
[00:04:17] This, by the way, is already a tradition of the Investigation Committee, to organize
[00:04:21] excursions for young employees. For many, this is a
[00:04:24] motivation to return to the Palace of Independence, already to
[00:04:27] receive a state award from
[00:04:30] the President's hands. For conscientious work and personal contribution to
[00:04:34] the development of the capital. At this moment, at the city hall, representatives of various
[00:04:37] organizations and city services, the Ministry of Emergency Situations,
[00:04:41] the Ministry of Internal Affairs, road and utility enterprises of the
[00:04:44] Capital are being honored. Heads of departments received
[00:04:47] well-deserved awards from the hands of the Mayor of Minsk, Vladimir Kukharev.
[00:04:51] The effective work of these people makes the capital's infrastructure even more
[00:04:54] comfortable and
[00:04:55] perfect.
[00:05:05] Thank you for noting the Minsk City Council of Deputies,
[00:05:08] my work in the housing policy department, my
[00:05:11] work. more than 28 years in state
[00:05:15] civil service, all this time in the housing policy department,
[00:05:18] starting from a specialist of the second category to
[00:05:22] the head of the department, we work for the benefit of the city of Minsk,
[00:05:25] residents of the city of Minsk, we improve the housing conditions of large
[00:05:29] families in need of improved housing conditions, other
[00:05:32] citizens, and thereby bring them joy, we are always
[00:05:36] glad to be useful and contribute to the landscaping and
[00:05:39] improvement of our beloved city.
[00:06:13] Educational institutions are very happy about this
[00:06:15] victory, for us the territory of the gymnasium is
[00:06:19] not just an area around educational institutions,
[00:06:23] it is a kind of social facility, a very
[00:06:26] important facility, this is the award of the entire
[00:06:28] pedagogical staff of our gymnasium and technical
[00:06:32] specialists, because we are together one
[00:06:35] team. The award ceremony is traditionally
[00:06:38] timed to coincide with the celebration of City Day, which in Minsk, I remind you, will be celebrated.
[00:07:00] The top most popular
[00:07:03] requests have been formulated. So, the local premiere
[00:07:07] Kostyukovichi Krai was bought most often. Mikhail
[00:07:10] Bulgakov sold well, namely. this
[00:07:42] is finished, the publisher will wrap
[00:07:45] it all up, he will make beautiful packaging,
[00:07:48] Belkniga specialists, of course, will make a beautiful display, they will participate
[00:07:52] in all fairs, sales, they will be at the exhibition with your
[00:07:56] books, but if you yourselves do not actively participate in all this
[00:07:59] process, you will never sell your
[00:08:02] book. What publications are the Union of
[00:08:06] Writers and the Ministry of Information betting on, how to become
[00:08:08] a laureate of the national literary prize and where it all began.
[00:08:42] independence begins not with packaging tablets, but with
[00:08:46] the production of the active substance. Belarus
[00:08:49] purchased raw materials from abroad from global
[00:08:52] manufacturers, China and India, but sanctions
[00:08:55] and new rules of the Russian market require the localization
[00:08:58] of substance synthesis in the EAEU space.
[00:09:02] Farmland found a solution, in the near future
[00:09:05] the production of pharmaceutical substances, carbapenem
[00:09:08] antibiotics, will be launched. Negotiations with an Indian corporation
[00:09:12] that supplies substances to 90 countries worldwide, have entered the
[00:09:16] home stretch. The event is indeed quite
[00:09:19] significant, today it is not enough to simply produce
[00:09:22] finished dosage forms, that is, in essence, true pharmaceutical
[00:09:26] independence begins with the production of
[00:09:29] our own pharmaceutical substances, and this is a question
[00:09:33] not only of national security, it is generally a question
[00:09:36] of the sustainability of the healthcare system and, most importantly,
[00:09:39] guaranteed patient access to essential antibiotics. In the
[00:09:43] fight against hospital-acquired infections, every minute
[00:09:46] counts. Carbapenem antibiotics are used in
[00:09:50] intensive care for sepsis, meningitis, and severe
[00:09:53] pneumonia. Their main value is their broad spectrum
[00:09:56] of action, which allows doctors to start therapy immediately.
[00:10:00] The launch of pharmaceutical substance production will allow us to achieve
[00:10:04] independence from imports and access to government procurement in the Russian
[00:10:07] market. And most importantly, patients will be provided with high-quality,
[00:10:11] affordable, and
[00:10:25] Belarus, and here Farmland already has a significant
[00:10:28] track record. Partners from Alfam call this
[00:10:31] cooperation strategic. In 5
[00:10:34] years, a huge amount of work has been done. Four
[00:10:38] pharmaceutical preparations have been registered, and another 28
[00:10:41] import-substituting drug projects are in an active
[00:10:44] stage that have no analogues in Russia and
[00:10:48] Belarus. The trend in Russia is towards deepening
[00:10:51] substance synthesis. If Farmland manages to do this in the near future,
[00:10:56] then all available preferences will be
[00:10:59] open for Farmland for our cooperation, and we
[00:11:03] will be able to exponentially increase exports to the Russian Federation, because
[00:11:07] the number of competitors capable of implementing such a complex
[00:11:10] technological project is small. Investments in
[00:11:14] our own substances are a contribution to the scientific sovereignty
[00:11:17] of the country. Belarusian patients will gain confidence in the future
[00:11:21] and guaranteed access to life-saving therapy.
[00:11:25] Farmland confirms in practice. The mission to be a socially
[00:11:28] oriented business is not just words, but a strategy for
[00:11:32] years to come. Victoria Sharkova and Dmitry Garkusha, First
[00:11:35] Information. And such is the information picture of
[00:11:39] September 9. In a few minutes, the Economic Environment project will

[00:13:55] If Belarus had strictly market relations, then for
[00:13:58] decades to come there would be no mobile shops and no rural
[00:14:02] shops in the country anymore. According to market rules, all grandmas and
[00:14:06] grandpas would be told: if you want, grandma, ride a bicycle,
[00:14:09] if you want, your grandpa can harness a horse and clatter
[00:14:12] along the asphalt to your shopping. Gentlemen private entrepreneurs, those who are
[00:14:16] already successfully working in cities, those who want to scale up, there is a
[00:14:20] gentleman's agreement for you: you take on a normal
[00:14:23] organization of work in villages, and in some places you even
[00:14:27] put up stationary retail facilities, of course, at a loss to yourselves. Let's
[00:14:30] learn to be socially responsible. The increase in
[00:14:34] maternity benefits should be regional. In Minsk, everyone,
[00:14:37] including me, should somehow manage on their own. The effectiveness
[00:14:41] of the invested ruble of state support for
[00:14:44] demography grows exponentially precisely in small settlements,
[00:14:48] in villages. The author's project of Igor Turaya

[00:14:57] We talk with famous Belarusians while preparing their favorite
[00:15:01] dishes in the project "Recipe of a True
[00:15:04] Belarusian." Today our guest is a person who exchanged a
[00:15:07] white coat for a strict suit. The office of the
[00:15:10] chief physician for a deputy's
[00:17:16] This is the economic environment, hello,
[00:17:19] construction of housing, factories, schools, polyclinics, museums and
[00:17:23] roads, all of this is the result of the work of one of
[00:17:26] the key sectors of our country.
[00:17:28] Construction is a powerful driver of the Belarusian economy,
[00:17:32] which generates over 6% of GDP and
[00:17:35] billions in export revenue. What
[00:17:38] tasks face the industry today, why is rental
[00:17:41] housing in the spotlight and what
[00:17:43] technologies will be in demand in the future, we will discuss with experts
[00:17:47] right
[00:17:48] now.
[00:17:56] Today in our studio are experts who are well versed in the issues
[00:18:00] of construction development. Vladimir Naumovich, First
[00:18:03] Deputy Minister of Architecture and Construction.
[00:18:15] First Deputy General Director of Belstroy
[00:18:18] Center, Tatiana Nikolaeva, General
[00:18:21] Director of Stroy Tech Norm. Honored guests,
[00:18:25] glad to see you in the studio of the Economic Environment. Today
[00:18:28] we are talking about construction, I suggest we start with the personal. Tell
[00:18:32] me, please, when was the last time you personally communicated with
[00:18:36] builders outside your official duties, so to speak,
[00:18:39] personally, individually, about your household issues, well, probably
[00:18:43] during the construction or repair of your
[00:18:46] home, did you encounter delays, I don't know, an increase
[00:18:50] in estimates or maybe
[00:18:53] limping quality, can construction be
[00:18:56] inexpensive, fast, and
[00:19:00] high-quality, or will you have to choose only
[00:19:03] two points? I did repairs literally last year?
[00:19:07] Therefore, I want to give such vital recommendations
[00:19:11] so that repairs and construction do not
[00:19:14] turn into a walk through hell, before starting
[00:19:17] work, draw up a clear technical task, what you
[00:19:21] want, work out an estimate, at least
[00:19:24] an approximate one, draw up a mandatory
[00:19:28] contract in order to then ask, it is very important to
[00:19:32] write down the schedule of work, at least
[00:19:35] also approximate.
[00:21:50] construction works and here I will support my colleagues, the basis
[00:21:53] was to determine the organization to which I would
[00:21:56] apply, which has a corresponding reputation, with which
[00:21:59] I can conclude a valid contract, which will provide
[00:22:03] for warranty obligations after the implementation
[00:22:06] of the commissioned facility, and here everything
[00:22:09] was clear, a simple resource helped, the internet,
[00:22:13] rating, first places, a couple of calls and you inquired,
[00:22:17] inquired. came to the office,
[00:22:21] talked, an understanding arose that
[00:22:24] the organization's approach here is serious, everything
[00:22:27] is done correctly from the point of view of legislation,
[00:22:30] they signed a contract, completed the work, signed the acts, accepted
[00:22:34] the work, paid, shook hands, thanked each other, and
[00:22:38] you were satisfied, quite right, so to solve this
[00:22:41] problem, the Ministry of Architecture today, in order to
[00:22:45] help our citizens, customers, legal entities
[00:22:48] to orient themselves.
[00:22:52] in the reputation of developers, engineering organizations, in
[00:22:55] the reputation of contracting organizations, the issue of
[00:22:58] creating a rating of construction, engineering
[00:23:02] and contracting organizations is being worked out. If the Ministry manages
[00:23:06] to implement this task in the near future, then on the
[00:23:09] state information resource relevant
[00:23:12] information will appear, where people and legal entities will be able
[00:23:16] to determine for themselves in accordance with the assigned.
[00:23:20] the most successful, correct, and accurate construction
[00:23:24] organization in terms of work. It is clear that the rating
[00:23:27] methodology will be hidden so that organizations cannot influence
[00:23:31] it, but nevertheless, for everyone else it will serve as a guide. That
[00:23:35] is, roughly like how the star rating of hotels is assessed, well, if we make
[00:23:39] conditional parallels, right? There is a rating
[00:23:42] methodology, it will take into account consumer
[00:23:45] satisfaction, the quality of work performed, the deadlines
[00:23:48] for work. maintaining
[00:23:52] balances during construction, that is, whether the contractor met the estimate or
[00:23:56] not, all of this combined will be determined in an integral
[00:23:59] rating, and the end consumer will be able to familiarize themselves with this rating and make their
[00:24:03] decision, very necessary for
[00:24:05] us people who have no direct relation to construction,
[00:24:09] an initiative, I hope it will be implemented in the near future, but
[00:24:13] since construction is a people's topic, we decided to find out
[00:24:17] people's opinions on the cost, deadlines and... quality
[00:24:20] of construction work, we asked residents of Minsk and even looked at
[00:24:24] social networks, let's see.
[00:24:27] At the moment, my apartment is practically ready, but the most
[00:24:31] expensive part is the rough work, when you need to lay all the
[00:24:34] electrical wiring, water, if in dollars
[00:24:38] around 10,000, yes, but it all
[00:24:41] depends on the team, how to hire
[00:24:44] masters, on March 1st I received completely, well, bare
[00:24:47] walls, and on the 21st of July I already
[00:24:51] moved in in 2020 it turns out at that time we were fine we
[00:24:54] fit in we have 46 square meters we spent on repairs
[00:24:58] about 15,000
[00:25:01] dollars, but we did everything ourselves except for
[00:25:05] the tiles in the bathroom, well, I came a long time ago in 2016,
[00:25:08] well, Minsk has really changed since
[00:25:12] then, Minsk World, especially these districts, Loshitsa, is now
[00:25:15] being built,
[00:25:18] and well, since it's being built,
[00:25:21] there's demand, definitely, that is, with such housing prices, there is demand from
[00:25:24] people. We go to 227, the daughter goes to
[00:25:27] the swimming pool, well, we like everything, everything is beautiful, clean,
[00:25:30] neat, the garden was something to compare with, the garden in
[00:25:34] the area where we lived before was such an old one,
[00:25:38] and here it's new, a very beautiful garden, equipped with all
[00:25:42] modern equipment,
[00:25:45] I live in the Factory district, Angarskaya
[00:25:48] microdistrict, and... it's very pleasant that a couple of years
[00:25:52] ago we had the school stadium renovated for children, it's very
[00:25:56] encouraging that they are busy, it's very
[00:25:59] pleasant, well, they built it well. I really
[00:26:02] like it, that is, compared to what it was before, of course, yes,
[00:26:06] even Lebyazhy, 10 years ago there was just
[00:26:10] a pond, and the houses
[00:26:13] were well, rural, now
[00:26:17] of course they are building quickly, well, I have been living in
[00:26:20] Vesnyanka since 1989,
[00:26:24] normal apartments, that is, they are building, well,
[00:26:27] of course, now new materials, sometimes
[00:26:31] requirements have changed. Well, I think
[00:26:34] professionalism is professionalism, people
[00:26:37] are filming videos from windows, we are alive, the house stood,
[00:26:40] everything is intact, these are panel buildings from Mapid, built by Belarusians,
[00:26:44] builders from a country where the earth never shakes,
[00:26:48] built a block that survived what an entire
[00:26:51] city did not survive, a house is not
[00:26:54] destroyed by an earthquake, a house is destroyed by saving money at the
[00:26:57] construction stage, check what your house is built of, especially
[00:27:01] if you are still just...
[00:27:15] in Venezuela turned out to be incredibly earthquake-resistant,
[00:27:18] although largely speaking, this problem is
[00:27:21] not very relevant for us, yes, we have a rather seismically
[00:27:24] calm region here, but it turned out that our builders are still
[00:27:28] great, what a safety margin! Angelina Anatolyevna,
[00:27:32] as a parliamentarian, you directly work with
[00:27:35] people, with representatives of organizations, with individual
[00:27:38] entrepreneurs, what construction problems do
[00:27:42] people mostly come to you with, considering that in parliament I work in the permanent
[00:27:46] commission on housing policy,
[00:27:49] trade and construction, the issues that my constituents
[00:27:53] come to me with mainly concern the sphere
[00:27:57] of housing and communal services and construction,
[00:27:59] trade less often, but mainly these...
[00:31:02] of the second year, the construction industry has been in
[00:31:05] a rather positive, significant zone. Based on the results of the previous
[00:31:09] five-year plan, serious results were achieved in the construction
[00:31:12] industry. By 2025, the Gross Added
[00:31:15] Value in the construction sector reached 108%
[00:31:19] points, as I already said, we reached the mark of
[00:31:21] 6.6% points of GDP, and
[00:31:25] at the same time, if we take the results of this half-year,
[00:31:29] the construction industry gained significant
[00:31:32] momentum, achieving results in GDP of
[00:31:35] 101.2, and for seven months already 102.2
[00:31:38] percentage points, and the share at the level of
[00:31:41] 6.4% points, while, if we compare with the level of last
[00:31:46] year, we are slightly ahead of last year. If
[00:31:49] we talk about the volume of housing construction,
[00:31:52] then housing is about 4 million square meters
[00:31:56] annually. Individual housing construction accounts for the main
[00:32:00] share of housing, more than half today,
[00:32:03] and the parameters laid down in the
[00:32:07] development standards of the Republic of Belarus are maintained here, while this indicator
[00:32:10] is in a leading position among CIS countries.
[00:32:14] Uh-huh. As for one of the target tasks
[00:32:17] of achieving 33 square meters of housing
[00:32:21] per inhabitant by 2030, the republic is moving towards
[00:32:24] fulfilling this indicator, today this
[00:32:28] parameter stands at 39
[00:32:31] square meters, while, as for citizens, what
[00:32:34] everyone feels for themselves is the cost per square meter
[00:32:38] of housing, so if we talk about the target task of keeping the
[00:32:42] cost per square meter of housing at...
[00:34:15] have an established material and technical base, an established
[00:34:18] staff of specialists,
[00:34:21] experience, and other related, so to speak,
[00:34:25] conditions, without which he has no opportunity to
[00:34:28] be allowed to perform this type of activity, that is, it is
[00:34:31] such, if I understand correctly, an instrument of state policy,
[00:34:35] when the state essentially sets the rules of
[00:34:38] the game, it says that if you want to engage, for example,
[00:34:42] in refrigeration or if you want to build.
[00:36:05] for the end consumer, for professional market participants, as well as for ordinary citizens. Today, the issue of
[00:36:09] Decree 253 was raised here, which allowed local authorities,
[00:36:12] executive committees, roughly speaking,
[00:36:27] built without the necessary permits and design
[00:36:30] documentation. The decision to extend the validity of this
[00:36:34] decree and regulatory act has been made, it works. During the five-year plan, the powers
[00:36:37] of local executive bodies on these issues were expanded,
[00:36:41] to determine objects for which, in order to start
[00:36:45] construction faster, to include them in the relevant,
[00:36:48] quite right, Decree 266, local executive committees
[00:36:52] received the right, regional executive committees to determine a list of objects, to include
[00:36:56] them in compliance.
[00:39:57] we have it in electronic form, so it's convenient to
[00:40:00] use, but we still need to recalculate these volumes into price,
[00:40:04] that's what I wanted to ask, yes, and for this we also
[00:40:08] have been forming and monitoring prices
[00:40:11] in automatic mode for the last few years, that is, you
[00:40:15] essentially index these parameters, not only
[00:40:18] index, all our manufacturers in the Republic of Belarus and
[00:40:21] importers, they in real time monthly
[00:40:25] enter information about prices
[00:40:28] for resources, materials into this
[00:40:31] database, and we always have up-to-date information,
[00:40:34] but we on the basis of these
[00:40:38] current prices, we also make average
[00:40:42] prices for building materials,
[00:40:44] today the estimator, we also have
[00:40:48] a separate software product, since September 1st it
[00:40:51] has become smart, we
[00:40:55] have prepared a new version of this product. this
[00:40:58] estimate for the work of estimators and
[00:41:01] designers, customers and contractors, it
[00:41:05] is used by controllers, we have a separate module for interaction with
[00:41:09] state expertise, we have also tested it, they
[00:41:12] use precisely the data of these and the general republican
[00:41:16] database of resource consumption standards,
[00:41:18] and averaged prices, if we
[00:41:21] currently have about 80 thousand
[00:41:25] of these averaged prices for materials.
[00:41:29] and generally in real time updates are carried out monthly
[00:41:32] for 250
[00:41:34] positions of material, that is, do I
[00:41:37] understand correctly, if you have an estimate
[00:41:41] for the construction of a certain
[00:41:44] object as of January twenty-sixth, then as of
[00:41:48] December twenty-sixth, the amount will be different, because
[00:41:51] all these balances are concluded, because there are three main elements in the cost, right,
[00:41:55] this is the estimated cost, the unchangeable contractual
[00:41:59] price, and the third is the actual cost, which is
[00:42:02] formed after the results, yes, this is the problem we are solving,
[00:42:06] This is, of course, so that the accumulated value approaches.
[00:43:30] This is the economic environment, we continue to discuss
[00:43:33] construction. The development of the industry is given special
[00:43:36] importance at the highest level. Our president.
