[00:00:30] It is fundamental engineering education, [00:00:33] but they use it within their technologies, that [00:00:37] is, we lay the foundation, but [00:00:39] they contribute these knowledge to their production, to [00:00:43] their technologies, they already invest in China, that is, the training modules in [00:00:47] Belarus are at a high level. Yes, Vladimir, [00:00:50] interest in the scientific and educational sphere is growing year [00:00:54] by year between Belarus and China. How are things currently in [00:00:58] this sphere, the study of Chinese? [00:01:00] In particular, it has become very popular among our citizens. [00:01:03] Annually, if we compare the last 5 years, [00:01:06] the number of students studying Chinese in our institute [00:01:10] has almost doubled. Chinese is studied [00:01:13] by people of all ages, [00:01:15] from young to old. Schoolchildren study it [00:01:19] for further admission to China, because they [00:01:22] consider their further education as [00:01:25] an opportunity to implement some [00:01:28] projects, and then... [00:03:00] for studying in Chinese universities. Upon arrival, they probably first [00:03:04] encounter difficulties with daily life, [00:03:07] because if in our universities parents can always help, then at [00:03:11] 8,000 km there is no such opportunity. With [00:03:14] difficulties, if they studied Chinese well [00:03:17] and can speak it, very few arise, because [00:03:21] mostly most of [00:03:24] those who studied Chinese have a corresponding certificate, they can already speak, [00:03:28] they arrange their... communications quite [00:03:31] quickly. Perhaps, atypical [00:03:34] are, perhaps, the living conditions, because unlike, [00:03:38] say, our same dormitories, yes, where there [00:03:41] is a kitchen and some other domestic conditions, in [00:03:45] Chinese universities everything is a bit different, that is, in fact, the university [00:03:49] provides a place of residence, all other [00:03:51] daily life and so on, students arrange [00:03:54] independently, [00:03:56] but thanks to, let's say, the fact that they participate in intergovernmental programs. [00:04:30] they try to introduce Chinese citizens to their [00:04:33] culture. Well, in particular, at the North-Eastern [00:04:36] University, an international festival of international [00:04:39] cultures is held annually, [00:04:42] where students who participate in academic exchange programs demonstrate [00:04:46] their values, national [00:04:50] ones, and at the same time the Chinese university [00:04:53] introduces them more thoroughly to its [00:04:56] values through excursions, trips somewhere. [00:05:00] Well, within the framework of BNTU, for example, for foreign citizens, a festival [00:05:02] of national cultures is also organized, [00:05:05] where any foreign student with some [00:05:08] cultural talent can demonstrate it on stage, thereby [00:06:12] complementing each other. This helps build long-term [00:06:16] partnerships. The Prime Ministers of the two countries discussed [00:06:18] the development of cooperation. Negotiations were held in an expanded [00:06:22] format. Alexander Turchin proposed holding [00:06:25] a joint Belarusian-Kazakhstan forum. Following the results, [00:06:29] a number of international documents were signed. [00:06:32] Alexander Lukashenko signed a decree approving the most important indicators [00:06:36] and parameters of socio-economic development [00:06:38] of Belarus for 2027. For the National Bank and [00:06:42] the government, a target is set to limit inflation [00:06:46] at a level not exceeding 6%. Successful [00:06:50] implementation of investment, production, and export [00:06:53] plans will ensure an increase in real disposable monetary [00:06:57] incomes of the population by 3%. [00:07:00] A meeting of the Council of Ministers of the Union [00:07:03] State was held in Minsk. Current issues of bilateral [00:07:06] cooperation, the consolidation of allied efforts in the field of industry [00:07:10] and high technologies, growth of trade, and also ensuring [00:07:14] equal conditions for citizens of our countries were discussed. Following the meeting, [00:07:18] the draft strategy for youth policy of the Union State was approved. The [00:07:21] theme of the work of the highest bodies for the next year was determined, [00:07:25] a memorandum on the construction of a high-speed railway [00:07:28] between the capitals of the two states was signed. [00:07:31] Belarus hosted the ninth congress of teachers and education workers [00:07:35] of the CIS member states. The main theme of the large-scale forum [00:07:38] is integration processes in the field of education in the context of modern [00:07:42] challenges. Over two days, participants exchanged professional experience, [00:07:46] worked in specialized sections, held discussions on thematic [00:07:50] platforms and master classes. The congress [00:07:52] became a unique platform for exchanging author's [00:07:55] methodologies. More than fifty leaders of the youth [00:07:59] movement Iskra from all regions of Belarus, as well as guests [00:08:02] from eleven countries of the world, from Russia and China to Zimbabwe and [00:08:06] Venezuela, were united by the international educational project [00:08:10] module. The initiative allowed for an exchange. [00:08:15] Throughout the week, the young party members' program included lectures, [00:08:18] trainings, master classes and expert discussions, [00:08:21] with an emphasis on party building in the modern political system [00:08:25] of Belarus, ideological processes and effective practices [00:08:28] of interaction with the [00:08:30] media. [00:08:36] Belarus' time in the international air, in our studio, the director of the Confucius Institute [00:08:40] for Science and Technology. [00:10:56] within the framework of this forum scientists from China and Belarus can [00:11:00] demonstrate their developments and find partners from [00:11:03] China, or there is also a similar [00:11:07] youth innovation forum New Horizons, where [00:11:10] students, master's students, doctoral students, young scientists and not only young [00:11:14] scientists, can demonstrate their developments [00:11:18] and find partners for themselves. You have been running the institute for many years, [00:11:21] and recently, due to identification... thanks to the similarity of the two [00:11:56] peoples, both the Belarusian people and the Chinese people, we are all [00:11:59] very hardworking, and achieving goals for [00:12:03] improving living conditions is [00:12:06] very important for both [00:12:09] sides. We achieve these goals, of course, we always achieve [00:12:12] goals. Thank you, I remind you, our guest was the director of the Confucius Institute [00:12:16] for Science and Technology of BNTU, Vladimir [00:12:19] Klienkau. [00:12:25] And in continuation, what marked the time of Belarus in the world, in the studio is our [00:12:29] colleague Elena Putus. Lena, where are we going today? Let's start with [00:12:32] Saudi Arabia, Belarusian products at the largest [00:12:35] international exhibition. Next, France and a tribute to brave [00:12:39] Belarusians, national color in the heart of Baku, [00:12:43] developments by Minsk schoolchildren in Malaysia and a fashion show of a Belarusian beauty in [00:12:46] New York. Belarusian manufacturers at the largest [00:12:49] food exhibition in the Middle East, Saudi [00:12:52] Food Show. The large-scale forum in the city of Jeddah, one of the key [00:12:55] trade and economic hubs of Saudi Arabia, brought together 1,000 companies [00:12:59] from 90 countries. Especially for the exhibition, Belarus prepared a wide [00:13:03] range of dairy products, which are in great demand among the residents [00:13:07] of the region. These are products from dry milk, assorted cheeses, [00:13:11] butter, desserts, ice cream, and baby food. We also brought [00:13:15] chocolate, candies, rapeseed oil and potato chips. Such [00:13:18] exhibitions are an opportunity to show yourself and find new [00:13:21] partners. By the way, the national exposition was named Belarus, [00:13:25] which emphasizes the naturalness of our products, and this, as we know, is valued [00:13:29] worldwide. [00:13:31] In France, the memory of brave women from Belarus was honored. At the [00:13:35] Till memorial complex, flowers were laid at the monument in honor of the Rodina [00:13:38] detachment. It included 37 Soviet women who [00:13:42] in forty-four managed to escape from the concentration camp and [00:13:45] join the partisans of the French Resistance. The detachment was commanded [00:13:49] by Belarusians, Nadezhda Lesovets and Rozalia [00:13:51] Fridzon. In memory of these events, in the summer... [00:13:57] The fact that fragile women did not surrender to fate, decided to [00:14:01] resist and fight, is an example of great courage and [00:14:04] self-sacrifice. And this feat once again reminds [00:14:07] us of the high price of victory. The character of the people is literally woven [00:14:11] into its history with threads. Belarusian flavor in the heart of [00:14:15] Baku, for the first time in Azerbaijan, the Day of National [00:14:18] Costume, which united the traditions of seventeen peoples of the world. Among [00:14:22] the participants, employees of the Belarusian diplomatic mission led by... they [00:14:25] presented vyshyvankas, traditional national costumes. This is not [00:14:29] just a wardrobe of the past, but a real charm and alphabet [00:14:33] of Belarusian history. Each pattern has its own meaning. In [00:14:36] Belarus there are several dozen variants of national costume, differences [00:14:40] in colors, details and plots of the ornament. Previously, by the costume [00:14:44] one could determine where a person came from, their marital status and even [00:14:47] approximate age. Despite the fact that the costume was invented hundreds of years ago, it [00:14:51] did not become a museum exhibit, but is still a part of. [00:15:38] Yes, it is indeed very bright and distinctive, and most importantly, [00:15:41] the ambiance enhances the perception. Yes, the show took place in [00:15:45] the old part of Baku, it is Icheri Sheher, an architectural [00:15:48] reserve protected by UNESCO, so of course, everything was very atmospheric. [00:15:51] In general, during the holiday an exhibition was organized, guests were able to get [00:15:55] acquainted with our industrial and gastronomic brands, [00:15:59] learn about the tourism educational potential. And [00:16:02] here we have something to be proud of. Belarusians constantly [00:16:05] confirm the level of their knowledge. Minsk schoolchildren with medals [00:16:09] from the international competition of inventions and research projects in [00:16:12] Malaysia. More than 500 teams from twelve countries took part in it. [00:16:16] Belarus has silver and two golds. Second place for [00:16:20] the development of wastewater treatment using recycled [00:16:23] batteries. First place for an alternative to chemical [00:16:26] fertilizers, a technology for producing useful [00:16:28] microorganisms, the second gold is for the study [00:16:32] of bioplastics and composting technology in the [00:16:34] environment. New developments protecting nature. Sounds [00:16:38] promising and in line with the times. Well, the fact that schoolchildren [00:16:41] came up with this, of course, adults helped them, but nevertheless, schoolchildren, this indicates that in [00:16:45] Belarus, great attention is paid to education in the field of ecology. And [00:16:49] now New York and Fashion Week with the participation of a Belarusian. The trip [00:16:52] became part of the preparation for the Miss Universe contest, which will be held in November [00:16:56] in Puerto Rico. Belarus will be represented by Aliya Korotkaya. In the world [00:17:00] of fashion, she is not new, this year she entered the top three at [00:17:03] the Miss BRICS contest and additionally won the audience award. [00:17:37] course: [00:17:40] It is a great honor and personal responsibility for me [00:17:43] to represent our beloved country Belarus at [00:17:46] the international Miss Universe contest, at a time when [00:17:50] the Year of the Belarusian Woman is taking place in our country. [00:17:53] My personal mission in this contest is to show [00:17:56] what a modern Belarusian woman is. In [00:18:00] my opinion, this is a woman not only [00:18:03] with dazzling grace and beauty, but also [00:18:08] with a unique combination of strong character, [00:18:12] inner dignity and a truly kind [00:18:15] heart. Recently I participated in New York Fashion Week. [00:18:19] I think that this is a huge experience for me, [00:18:23] which will definitely help me achieve high results at the Miss [00:18:26] Universe contest. Well, we wish Aliya good luck, [00:18:30] and of course, we are rooting for her. Let's conquer the whole [00:18:34] world with Belarusian beauty. That was Belarus' time. [00:18:44] Minsk became the center of documentary cinema of CIS countries. Belarus [00:18:48] took over the relay of the 10th international festival [00:18:51] Evraziia.Doc. The competition usually features films [00:18:54] from all over the world, sharp, equally understandable to an international [00:18:57] audience. This year 413 applications were [00:19:01] received from 17 countries. The list of finalists includes 34 [00:19:04] films: from Belarus, Iran, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, [00:19:08] Russia and Uzbekistan. Seven films created [00:19:12] by Belarusian documentarians made it to the shortlist of the main [00:19:15] competition. The main themes that the authors raise are memory and war, [00:19:19] family and native land, faith and service, cultural heritage and [00:19:23] modern challenges. Documentary cinema, in which memory is pain, [00:19:26] hope and overcoming, allows us to see beyond private history, [00:19:30] time and the global changes happening around us. And [00:19:33] also the great power of art allows us to think and draw [00:19:36] conclusions. How important it is today to preserve this fragile world and [00:19:40] live in harmony and mutual understanding. And that's [00:19:43] all, with you summing up were Katerina Strikha and Evgeny [00:19:47] Kolechets. What Belarus' time will be, we will find out next [00:19:50] week. See you in the international air. [00:20:31] Kirill Olegovich, good afternoon, hello, information is going viral [00:20:34] on social networks about the fact that [00:21:39] in case of untimely treatment, any of these infections can lead to complications such as pneumonia. In general, an increase in the incidence of respiratory infections in the autumn period is natural [00:21:43] due to the fact that children form new organized [00:21:46] groups in educational institutions, people return after... [00:21:59] which can lead to respiratory infections and causes such an increase in incidence during [00:22:02] this period of the year, plus the weather conditions also play [00:22:06] their role, that is, cold weather, more cloudy, more [00:22:10] rainy weather also affects the immune system [00:22:13] as a whole, that is, there is no unforeseen situation today, [00:22:16] yes, absolutely right, well, as we know, antibiotics. [00:23:50] the influenza A H3N2 virus showed high activity. [00:23:54] For the current season, it is unlikely that it [00:23:57] will occupy a dominant position, it is assumed that [00:24:00] the leading position with respect [00:24:04] to influenza viruses will be taken by the A H1N1 strain, [00:24:07] also influenza B virus joins [00:24:11] the season of incidence, usually at its end, [00:24:14] this is usually late winter or spring and can [00:24:17] cause a second surge in illness. [00:24:31] are quite dangerous viruses, as they have high variability, and [00:24:34] besides, they infect not only humans, but also birds and [00:24:38] mammals. While in them, that is, [00:24:41] in birds and mammals, they can mutate, acquire [00:24:45] new properties and then [00:24:47] enter the human body, and... against this mutant, if [00:24:51] I may say so, strain, a person will not have any [00:24:55] immunity, therefore, this disease can cause both [00:24:58] epidemics and pandemics and lead to a severe course [00:25:02] of the disease with complications in the form [00:25:05] of pneumonia. Plus, influenza A viruses [00:25:08] are one of the main causes of [00:25:11] viral pneumonia. Starting in October, the active vaccination [00:25:15] period begins, I understand that you are currently awaiting [00:25:18] supplies. Regional enterprises [00:25:22] of the Pharmacy system have already begun receiving the first doses of vaccine [00:25:26] for influenza prevention. Starting in October, as you correctly [00:25:30] noted, a mass vaccination campaign against influenza will begin for the [00:25:33] population. How effective is this, if there are any statistical [00:25:37] data? According to the World Health [00:25:39] Organization, in general, vaccinated [00:25:43] individuals against influenza during the season of acute respiratory infections [00:25:47] are 12 times less likely to seek [00:25:50] medical help from these healthcare organizations. [00:25:53] Also, no cases of severe influenza [00:25:55] were recorded in vaccinated individuals. [00:25:59] What about coronavirus, what is it lately? [00:26:32] At the same time, isolated cases of COVID-19 infection [00:26:36] are also registered in our country throughout the year, [00:26:39] but at the same time, the virus has lost [00:26:42] its ability to cause a severe course [00:26:45] in individuals without [00:26:48] any chronic infections and complications, that is, it [00:26:51] proceeds like a common respiratory infection, that is, is [00:26:55] the sense of smell still lost, are all these [00:26:58] symptoms preserved, or is it already like a common ARVI, can it even be [00:27:01] confused? [00:27:41] due to the fact that during COVID-19 [00:27:45] infection, these individuals may develop a severe [00:27:48] course of this infection and lead to an unfavorable outcome. [00:27:52] These are individuals over 65 years old, [00:27:55] individuals with any immunodeficiencies, and [00:27:58] also individuals working and permanently residing in [00:28:01] institutions with a round-the-clock stay regime, that is, for these individuals [00:28:05] this virus still poses a danger, for some - [00:28:09] it is a risk of a severe course, for others it is a risk of rapid [00:28:12] spread among the collective, and for [00:28:15] children, as a mother is interested, as [00:28:18] before, SARS-CoV-2 mainly affects the adult [00:28:22] population, children tolerate it more easily than [00:28:25] the adult population, so currently, [00:28:28] mainly, of course, of those cases of illness [00:28:32] with COVID-19 infection registered in our country, these are mainly [00:28:36] adults. Can one get [00:28:39] vaccinated simultaneously against coronavirus and [00:28:42] flu, or is it not advisable to do so? You know, this [00:28:45] practice has been used for a long time, both in our country [00:28:49] and in all countries of the world, yes, the vaccine against flu and the vaccine against [00:28:52] COVID-19 can be given simultaneously, that is, on the same day, [00:28:56] a good immunity will be formed against both flu [00:29:00] and COVID-19 infection. Well, I [00:29:03] think you understand that there are still people who [00:29:07] oppose vaccination, some have the argument that if you constantly [00:29:10] get vaccinated, your immunity weakens and it will be more difficult [00:29:14] for you to cope on your own with simple [00:29:17] viruses later, is that true? Actually [00:29:21] no, any vaccination, including against flu, [00:29:24] contributes to the production of specific [00:29:28] protective antibodies in the body against a specific infection [00:29:32] for which the vaccination was given, moreover, vaccination [00:29:35] in no way reduces immunity [00:29:38] against other infections, that is, if a person was vaccinated, for [00:29:42] example, against flu, then the human immune system will [00:29:45] produce antibodies specifically to the flu virus, [00:29:48] but it should be remembered that vaccination against [00:29:52] flu and against coronavirus infection does not protect against [00:29:55] infection in general, it reduces the risk of getting these infections, but [00:29:59] at the same time guarantees that in case a person...
