Its [00:04:46] events took place in the Belarusian capital on October 7 and 8. [00:04:49] Delegations from 28 states, 17 bodies [00:04:53] of the CIS and SCO, and 10 international organizations were invited [00:04:56] to participate. Within the framework of the forum, a number of thematic conferences [00:05:00] and anti-terrorist exercises were held. Why are we [00:05:04] uniting? We are uniting because terrorism [00:05:07] is international in nature. Coordinating bodies in the framework [00:05:11] of countering terrorism. These bodies do [00:05:14] everything within [00:05:17] our power, everything possible, in order for us [00:05:20] to confront international terrorism with a united [00:05:23] front. On October 8, the силовая phase of the final [00:05:27] stages of the anti-terrorist exercises of the CIS and SCO Eurasia [00:05:30] Antiterror 2026 was conducted. The event [00:05:33] was held in a combined format with the participation of an interstate contingent [00:05:36] of special forces. Last [00:05:39] week, Minsk hosted a meeting of the Eurasian Intergovernmental [00:05:42] Council. The agenda of the event included 15 issues, including [00:05:46] in the spheres of trade, industry, customs [00:05:48] cooperation, financial policy, electricity market, transport [00:05:52] and logistics. The meeting was held in narrow and extended [00:05:55] formats. The single market of the EAEU unites five countries [00:05:59] and 185 million people. Mutual trade within [00:06:02] the Union last year amounted to almost 96 [00:06:05] billion dollars. This year, partners expect to reach the historic [00:06:09] mark of 100 billion. The main growth was provided by the agro-industrial complex, supplies [00:06:13] of complex equipment, and cooperation. Belarus sees [00:06:16] significant potential in joint projects in mechanical engineering, [00:06:19] microelectronics, and biotechnologies. Our country called for a transition to a new type of integration, [00:06:23] to generally reboot industrial [00:06:26] cooperation in the EAEU. Today, a new type of integration is needed, [00:06:30] an integration in which science knows the needs of [00:06:33] industry, financing follows [00:06:36] promising products, digital technologies increase [00:06:39] productivity, and logistics and a common market [00:06:43] ensure scalability. The Union, with its potential, is ready [00:06:46] to implement such a large-scale task. Only [00:06:49] our united firm will to follow this [00:06:52] path is needed. Following the meeting, the Intergovernmental Council approved forecasts [00:06:56] for the development of the agro-industrial complex for 2026-2027 [00:06:59] and a package of decisions on the formation of a common electricity [00:07:03] market for its actual launch from the new year. The Intergovernmental Council [00:07:06] approved a package of decisions on the formation of a common [00:07:09] electricity market. Amendments [00:07:12] concerned the rules of mutual trade, electrical energy, information exchange, [00:07:16] and the determination of the transmission capacity of interstate [00:07:19] power lines. The adoption of these documents [00:07:23] is a necessary condition for the actual launch of a common [00:07:26] energy market from January 1, 2027. [00:07:30] The integration association will be strengthened by new [00:07:33] foreign contacts. Negotiations are already underway to create a free trade [00:07:37] zone with India and Tunisia, and these are new multi-million markets for [00:07:40] goods exports. The prime ministers of the five countries will summarize the results in winter. The [00:07:44] next Eurasian Intergovernmental Council in December will be hosted [00:07:48] by Moscow. Well, as for mutual trade between Belarus and [00:07:52] Russia, it is on the rise. 20% growth in 8 [00:07:55] months compared to the same period last year, data announced at the meeting [00:07:59] of the Council of Ministers of the Union State. Minsk and Moscow synchronized their watches and formed a pool [00:08:03] of projects for a three-year period. Industry plays a key role. [00:08:06] Today, 24 import-substituting projects are being implemented by our countries with joint [00:08:10] efforts. Thus, technological sovereignty and [00:08:14] competitiveness of allied goods in foreign markets are enhanced. [00:08:18] Belarusian Maz and Russian group Itelma created [00:08:21] an electric bus with almost complete localization within the Union [00:08:25] State, only from Belarusian and Russian [00:08:27] components. Belaz and Norilsk Nickel are implementing [00:08:31] a promising project to create an enterprise for the production [00:08:34] and overhaul of underground mining equipment. It [00:08:37] is aimed at import substitution of loading and delivery machines and [00:08:41] mine dump trucks. operating on both diesel fuel and [00:08:44] alternative energy sources. By the way, a ready [00:08:47] contender for the status of a Union State product. [00:08:51] At the instruction of our presidents, Vladimir [00:08:54] Putin, Alexander Grigoryevich Lukashenka, we continue [00:08:58] systematic work on forming a common [00:09:01] socio-economic, scientific-technological, [00:09:04] cultural-humanitarian space of the Union [00:09:06] State. We certainly see a tangible return from [00:09:10] Russian-Belarusian integration. [00:09:13] Our citizens enjoy equal rights and guarantees in [00:09:16] the areas of healthcare, education, and social [00:09:19] pension provision. Moscow and Minsk will be connected by a high-speed railway, [00:09:23] this was also discussed at the meeting of the Council of Ministers of the Union [00:09:26] State. Russia and Belarus signed a memorandum on the construction [00:09:30] of a high-speed railway between the capitals of the two states. [00:09:33] The length of the main line will be about 700 km, travel time up to [00:09:37] 3 hours. The speed of trains on this route [00:09:40] will increase to 400 km/h. The projected passenger traffic [00:09:44] is almost up to 6 million people per year. [00:09:47] It's time to summarize the preliminary results of the big industrial week in Minsk. [00:09:51] The Inoprom Belarus exhibition gathered guests from 45 countries, which is [00:09:55] almost twice as many as a year earlier. Let's recall that over 500 [00:09:58] companies demonstrated their developments at BelExpo, [00:10:01] and the exhibition area was about [00:10:04] 20,000 m2. We believe that the event is very significant [00:10:08] from the point of view of the Belarusian market, in which we [00:10:11] operate, from the point of view of cooperation between our countries, between [00:10:15] Russia and Belarus, because we signed an agreement on training [00:10:18] personnel with BelAZ, this will be training of personnel and schoolchildren [00:10:22] students in the interests of BelAZ, specifically, well... [00:10:33] The company produces micronized silica gels, stable [00:10:37] silica sols. This is basic industrial chemistry that helps various [00:10:40] industries improve the quality of their products. And in [00:10:44] Belarus, we are ready and happy to work with [00:10:47] paint and varnish manufacturers, tire [00:10:50] manufacturers, [00:10:53] construction companies of various directions, which produce [00:10:57] everything necessary for life, since this chemistry is [00:10:59] universal, our products can [00:11:02] help in various unexpected areas, for example, [00:11:05] pharmaceuticals. We had friends from Kazakhstan, [00:11:08] Uzbekistan, from Baku, so it's [00:11:12] great, and the place is very convenient, everything [00:11:15] is done at a good level. We visit all exhibitions [00:11:19] and Inoprom, we were in Delhi, in Astana, in [00:11:22] Tashkent, here everything is done very well. The next [00:11:26] Inoprom will be held in April 2027, the capital of Uzbekistan, [00:11:29] Tashkent, will host the large-scale exhibition. [00:11:33] A delegation from the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) visited Gomel Region [00:11:36] with a working visit within the framework of the international industrial exhibition [00:11:39] Inoprom Belarus. The parties signed a roadmap [00:11:42] for cooperation. The practical implementation of agreements continued [00:11:45] directly in the regions. The ceremony of signing the cooperation agreement [00:11:49] took place in [00:11:50] Loyev. [00:11:57] First of all, a number [00:12:00] of joint projects are planned, so, of course, we are interested in [00:12:03] tourism, then agriculture, then cultural [00:12:07] exchanges, because today our schoolchildren, their children, have a common theme, [00:12:10] the main one, which is our Great Patriotic War, our victory, [00:12:14] so, I think, we will pick [00:12:16] up momentum, a strong foundation for partnership is also [00:12:20] a common history. It was here, on the Loyev land, that a Hero of the Soviet Union, [00:12:24] a native of Yakutia. [00:12:46] Belarus, in Gomel region, in the village of Drazhichik, where [00:12:49] the first Hero of the Soviet Union from [00:12:53] the Yakut people [00:12:55] was buried. Popov, who performed his feat during the crossing [00:12:59] of the Dnieper on October 1, 1943, and here [00:13:03] he died on October 13, [00:13:06] 1943, and we are very grateful to our brothers [00:13:10] from Belarus for supporting this project, for helping in its [00:13:14] implementation. The parties also noted that a common interest in history [00:13:17] will also serve as a basis for joint cultural and humanitarian [00:13:21] projects and involving the youth of both regions in historical heritage. [00:13:26] More news from the economy and not only on our TV channel's website [00:13:30] in social [00:13:31] networks. [00:13:35] From Mother's Day to Father's Day. From October 12, the Week of Parental Love begins in Belarus. [00:13:39] Each day is unique, from concerts and exhibitions to [00:13:42] interactive events and dialogue platforms. Special attention is traditionally [00:13:45] given to large families. What is the basis [00:13:48] for the preservation and prosperity of the nation, how does Belarusian society today [00:13:52] evaluate support for families, motherhood, and childhood? modern, [00:14:25] which indicate that the role of the family and its [00:14:45] perception by citizens is changing, and if it was [00:14:49] previously in the sphere of private interests, today it is already [00:14:52] more a category [00:14:55] within the framework of the strategic resource of the state, and [00:14:58] this concerns not only the development of human potential, but also the development of the country as [00:15:02] a whole. In particular, the public meaning of the family is generally changing, because [00:15:06] people already perceive it as an institution [00:15:10] for personal affirmation and [00:15:13] quality of life. The model of family [00:15:16] relationships is changing. If earlier we talked more about a system of responsibilities, [00:15:20] today people want partnership, mutual respect, [00:15:23] support, and in general... the role of the [00:15:27] state itself in family policy is even changing in the perception of citizens. [00:15:30] People increasingly want not just support through [00:15:34] a system of some individual social measures, they talk about [00:15:37] continuous support for the family throughout its [00:15:41] life cycle and the creation of an environment that [00:15:44] would be comfortable for the implementation of these family [00:15:47] values and family responsibilities for the members of this [00:15:51] family. Well, of course, there are a number of specific points among [00:15:54] young people, because they have a special perception of the family, this is not [00:15:58] only, let's say, an opportunity for [00:16:01] self-realization, it is also a vision [00:16:05] of oneself in the context of society, because participation in a family [00:16:08] implies that a person will still retain [00:16:11] opportunities for personal freedom, for professional growth, and [00:16:15] so on and so forth. That's why we are now saying that [00:16:18] family values are moving into the sphere of such everyday [00:16:22] practices. In order to preserve traditions, we [00:16:26] understand that concrete mechanisms are already [00:16:28] needed, so that a person would understand [00:16:32] what benefit these social support measures [00:16:35] themselves will bring. The preservation of the institution of the family [00:16:39] depends on how effectively state and public [00:16:42] institutions can create this family environment. It's [00:16:45] interesting how Belarusians today characterize the socially [00:16:48] approved family model, what do they say? Well, [00:16:52] the socially approved norm in Belarusian society is [00:16:55] having two children. Unfortunately, for now, having many children, [00:16:59] as well as a family of several generations, for example, children, [00:17:02] parents, grandparents living in the same territory, is [00:17:06] a respected unpopular [00:17:08] practice for now, but if we talk in [00:17:11] comparison, then the positive thing here is that other [00:17:15] alternative family formats, such as, for example, [00:17:18] an incomplete family or separate living of spouses, [00:17:21] or married couples without children, are [00:17:25] even less popular, so in comparison with other [00:17:28] countries, we understand that this is quite [00:17:32] a popular trend in Europe, [00:17:35] not only in Belarus, we are quite... [00:19:38] with which it may face, this is undoubtedly active [00:19:42] longevity, and so on, that is, these are those [00:19:45] specific points that require [00:19:49] undoubtedly a rethinking of the overall approach to [00:19:52] family policy, because now [00:19:55] people still expect more than just [00:19:58] a package of social support measures, but [00:20:01] rather family support throughout its [00:20:04] life cycle and the creation of conditions [00:20:08] for a family environment. Accordingly, new tools are also needed, that is, [00:20:12] we can already talk, for example, about the family profile of a territory, which can be [00:20:15] measured with appropriate indices, or we talk [00:20:18] about the development of family support [00:20:21] routes, and accordingly, then we understand [00:20:24] the demand for a family [00:20:27] navigator. Well, first of all, we are already talking about [00:20:30] a digital environment, we see a demand for [00:20:34] family mentoring. [00:21:20] family to the institution of marriage, and there is an interesting concept [00:21:24] like psychological support [00:21:26] for preparing for family life, what is that? Tell us more? Well, [00:21:30] we see from sociological surveys, indeed, that young people, and [00:21:34] first of all, I will talk about Generation Z, which is entering this [00:21:37] active, let's say, phase of change, [00:21:40] that, indeed, they have a special attitude towards family and [00:21:43] merely having a nominal, formal presence [00:21:47] of a family is not enough for young people. [00:21:50] Young people have increased demands for the quality [00:21:53] of relationships in the family. Of course, when young people describe [00:21:57] family, they talk about love, emotional [00:22:00] closeness, and emotional security, respect [00:22:03] for each family member, and so on. That is, these are certain [00:22:06] frameworks that [00:22:10] they expect when in [00:22:12] a family. But at the same time, they view the family [00:22:16] in a broader social context, where [00:22:20] young people, being in a family, would accordingly [00:22:24] have opportunities for self-realization, professional [00:22:27] growth, maintain mobility, they would still [00:22:30] be independent, and so on. Therefore, [00:22:33] today it is indeed very important for young people [00:22:36] to promote family policy [00:22:40] as creating conditions for the family as a space for personal [00:22:44] development, and here it is important, critically important [00:22:47] to prepare for family life already at the stages, [00:22:50] literally from the school desk, and this [00:22:53] preparation includes not only informing about [00:22:56] the measures taken by the state to support families, [00:23:00] but also developing communication skills, [00:23:03] partnership, respect, [00:23:06] conflict resolution skills, legal and [00:23:10] financial literacy, and so on. That is, these are different [00:23:14] starting conditions on which this family [00:23:17] is ready to be born and... when [00:23:20] we talk about psychological support, we understand that this is not only at [00:23:23] the stages of pre-family preparation, right, but also at [00:23:27] the stages of general family support, because [00:23:30] psychological preparation is indeed relevant for young people [00:23:34] all the time, and here corresponding projects [00:23:38] and accordingly courses are needed, these can be not [00:23:41] only proposals from the state, but these can be [00:23:44] proposals from civil society, which are also in demand. [00:23:48] if today we talk, yes, about family [00:23:50] values, about family policy, for more than a year the West [00:23:54] has been imposing on our country distorted [00:23:57] notions of good and evil, love, how [00:24:00] today to resist these [00:24:03] impositions of non-traditional values, in your [00:24:07] personal opinion, what needs to be done today to further [00:24:11] strengthen our family values, to preserve [00:24:14] them? Well, it is truly the target [00:24:17] is family-moral values, the perception [00:24:21] of Belarusians, they are connected with traditions, with [00:24:24] historical memory, with continuity of generations, [00:24:27] culture of behavior, and generally planning one's life [00:24:31] scenario. Therefore, [00:24:33] countering such attempts [00:24:37] to influence the minds and hearts of our people, [00:24:40] accordingly, it is necessary first of all to fight for [00:24:43] the preservation of our own traditions, but [00:24:46] today the mere existence [00:24:49] of this tradition is no longer enough. People need to see [00:24:53] the usefulness of this tradition in their daily lives, and for [00:24:56] this, accordingly, state and public institutions need to create conditions [00:25:00] where these traditions would be embodied in [00:25:04] such practical cases, for example, now [00:25:07] people again suggest and write on our digital [00:25:11] platforms that we use to study public [00:25:15] opinion, for example, it can be developed. [00:25:18] for example, the initiatives of the head [00:25:50] of state "one district - one project". Thank you, and I remind you that the questions [00:25:53] of the "Events" program were answered by Ekaterina Redchits, analyst of the Belarusian Institute [00:25:57] of Strategic Studies, head of the Center for Civil [00:26:00] Analysis. This is the [00:26:13] "Events" program, and we continue: [00:26:16] a professional discussion of pedagogues was held in Minsk on the sidelines of the ninth congress [00:26:20] of teachers and education workers of the CIS member states. The [00:26:23] large-scale forum was attended by delegations from Belarus and Russia, Kazakhstan, [00:26:27] Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. The theme [00:26:31] of the congress is the integration process. [00:27:02] technical university, but also a very high level of technical [00:27:05] education is provided by the Russian-Armenian University, the [00:27:09] Russian-Tajik, Kyrgyz Russian, this is a very interesting [00:27:12] instrument. The second is our joint [00:27:15] programs with universities, and they can be [00:27:18] not only two universities, for example, Russian, Belarusian, and Kyrgyz [00:27:22] or Turkmen, which Turkmenistan, you know, is a somewhat closed country, we [00:27:26] need to attract more. I think it is very [00:27:29] important for us to talk about mutual recognition of education. [00:28:02] The congress concluded with a solemn closing and a festive concert at the Palace [00:28:06] of the Republic. For over a century of history, science, and leadership, [00:28:10] Belarusian State University is rightfully [00:28:13] the flagship of national higher education. Today, it is one of [00:28:16] the largest scientific and innovative centers in the country. Throughout its history, [00:28:19] the university has trained over 160,000 specialists, including [00:28:23] famous scientists, academics, Nobel [00:28:26] laureates, and Olympic medalists. Over the past [00:28:30] 5 years, we have done a great deal. [00:29:02] retro snapshots and modern photographs in three languages, [00:29:06] which reflect key stages of the university's life. This is [00:29:09] a preliminary assessment. Currently, the Brest Fortress Hero Memorial Complex [00:29:13] is undergoing the process for inclusion in the UNESCO World Heritage List. [00:29:17] This path is being undertaken by the legendary citadel jointly with the Russian memorial to the heroes [00:29:21] of the Battle of Stalingrad on Mamayev Kurgan. Last year, it was included [00:29:24] in UNESCO's preliminary list. To confirm the application, a preliminary [00:29:28] assessment stage is required. In mid-September [00:29:32] of the current year, we submitted documents [00:29:36] for the assessment of our memorials by international [00:29:39] experts, who will first familiarize themselves with the documents [00:29:42] that we provided, and the package [00:29:45] of documents is very extensive, including maps [00:29:49] of memorials and maps of surrounding areas to show [00:29:52] that these memorials are located in safe, protected zones. [00:29:56] All materials are translated into English and in this [00:30:00] format are sent to UNESCO headquarters in [00:30:03] Paris. Then experts study them, they have the right [00:30:06] to ask additional questions, request additional information. [00:30:10] This is also not a very quick period of time, as about [00:30:13] a year is given for study. [00:30:16] Only after a thorough study by UNESCO experts of materials in [00:30:20] Brest and Volgograd will an assessment be given of the possibility of including the objects in [00:30:24] the World Heritage List. The process from submitting an application to [00:30:28] inclusion in the World Heritage List takes about 5 [00:30:31] years. The festival of Sunny Georgia was hosted by the Belarusian [00:30:34] capital. The Bilezoba festival returned to Minsk after 7 years.
