[00:00:00] Expansion of mechanisms for providing mutual legal assistance between
[00:00:03] judicial bodies. Also, at the venue, participants exchanged
[00:00:06] experiences on issues of legal proceedings.
[00:00:10] Minsk hosted the third international congress Innovative Cardiology
[00:00:14] 2026. The geography of participating countries is expanding every
[00:00:17] year. This year, participants gathered from Uzbekistan,
[00:00:20] Azerbaijan, Tajikistan, Russia, India, Turkey,
[00:00:24] China, and Israel. Alongside presentations, discussions,
[00:00:27] educational master classes, and simulation trainings were held. Among the
[00:00:31] topics were high-tech surgery, modern approaches to
[00:00:34] diagnosis, and personalized
[00:00:37] cardiac rehabilitation. A separate area is artificial
[00:00:40] intelligence and IT technologies in cardiology and
[00:00:43] cardiac surgery. At the congress venue, participants
[00:00:46] discussed how to transform scientific ideas into concrete help
[00:00:50] for patients.
[00:00:52] The nineteenth festival "Youth for the Union State" brought together
[00:00:56] more than 300 participants from Belarus and Russia. The main
[00:00:59] message is strengthening friendship between the youth of the two countries. According to
[00:01:02] the organizers, in the context of global challenges and attempts to divide the peoples
[00:01:06] of the post-Soviet space, it is important to convey to young people the commonality
[00:01:09] of cultures, to tell them how much unites us. For several days,
[00:01:13] young people immersed themselves in creativity, with master classes from famous
[00:01:17] musicians, art critics, and excursions for guests and participants
[00:01:21] of the festival.
[00:01:27] "Time of Belarus" on international air. In our studio is Candidate of Military
[00:01:31] Sciences Andrey Bogadel. We continue our conversation, Andrey Petrovich. The President
[00:01:35] of Belarus pays special attention to the country's defense potential,
[00:01:39] the contribution of science to the security sphere. Which
[00:01:43] scientific developments, in your opinion, are now changing
[00:01:46] the balance of power in the region and in general, which
[00:01:49] directions need to be developed? Artificial
[00:01:52] intelligence and drones are
[00:01:55] super capabilities. Look, when the President
[00:01:59] visits... specifically objects of the military-industrial
[00:02:02] complex, when he meets with the military, a rare week passes
[00:02:06] without such meetings, he constantly says everywhere:
[00:02:09] stop feeding me fairy tales.
[00:02:13] I know that we have a bright future. Fairy tales about
[00:02:16] the future are also very interesting, but
[00:02:19] today we need reality. Today,
[00:02:22] time is moving at such a pace, it has literally
[00:02:25] shrunk, it has shrunk primarily in matters of security, and
[00:02:29] here... there's no way without science. Science must
[00:02:33] be at the forefront of everything. In science, there are two fundamental
[00:02:37] tasks: to systematize existing knowledge
[00:02:40] and to shed light on the future, that is, to indicate the direction
[00:02:44] in which development should go today, including
[00:02:48] the development of military affairs. It's no coincidence that we
[00:02:51] are talking about why today the forms and methods of using
[00:02:55] troops are changing, because the means of armed
[00:02:58] struggle are changing, specifically the means. The President
[00:03:01] draws attention to the means of armed struggle,
[00:03:04] absolutely everyone. Today, there is a struggle for low altitude airspace, this is already
[00:03:08] part of any war. Today, drones are literally
[00:03:11] everywhere. Anti-drone protection, both active and passive, must be effective.
[00:03:15] Air defense systems of various
[00:03:19] modifications and layered engagement must
[00:03:22] be effective here. Electronic warfare
[00:03:25] means must be effective here.
[00:03:28] Reconnaissance means must be effective here.
[00:03:41] Isn't this a
[00:03:44] technology race? Yes, this is definitely a technology race, we cannot avoid it. In this race,
[00:03:48] we cannot afford to lose, woe
[00:03:51] to the vanquished. Today, the issue
[00:03:54] of technology becomes issue number one.
[00:03:57] This is where we again turn to science.
[00:04:01] Only science can predict, and
[00:04:04] not just in the dark, so that we act like blind kittens, but clearly
[00:04:08] indicate the way. Well, you didn't bring up numbers and
[00:04:11] economics for nothing. But we understand that security is not just a силового
[00:04:15] block, defense is also an economic course of development
[00:04:18] for our state. So, sanction pressure is a clear threat
[00:04:22] to security. Have we managed to avoid the consequences and how to loosen
[00:04:26] the grip in this direction? We will address this question to an expert from
[00:04:29] Moscow. I think that, in principle, the sanctions
[00:04:33] pressure is quite tangible. On the other
[00:04:36] hand, both the Russian and Belarusian economies have obviously
[00:04:40] coped with the most
[00:04:43] difficult manifestations of this sanctions
[00:04:46] pressure. Well, this can be confirmed by the growth
[00:04:50] rates of the Russian and Belarusian economies, that
[00:04:52] is, the economy of the Union State
[00:04:56] has been growing much faster on average in recent years.
[00:05:42] security, well, in general, we are talking about having nine such
[00:05:45] areas, I agree that economy is one of the most
[00:05:49] leading directions, directions ensuring national
[00:05:52] security, after all, even Friedrich Engels said in his
[00:05:55] Anti-Dühring, nothing is so dependent on economic conditions as the army and
[00:05:59] navy, because in order to build a reliable defense, one needs to
[00:06:03] obtain appropriate weapon systems.
[00:06:06] When we touched upon the issues of balance of power, we must first of all
[00:06:10] understand that the balance of power is
[00:06:13] not just about creating some new
[00:06:15] automatic rifle or some new missile or a new
[00:06:19] drone, the balance of power is everything in
[00:06:22] its entirety. But these are issues of deterrence. When we
[00:06:25] move to the balance of power, we are already starting to talk
[00:06:29] about tactical nuclear weapons, the deployment of our
[00:06:32] nuts, the deployment of fundamentally new systems
[00:06:35] of a regional grouping of troops and forces. This is just
[00:06:38] an adequate response to the actions taking place in
[00:06:42] the West.
[00:08:12] in the situation with the armed forces, it remains with
[00:08:16] us, this is primarily specialties, professionalization, that is, the
[00:08:19] direction that today allows us to train specialists to
[00:08:23] combat cyber threats, we train specialists for space
[00:08:26] communications, or we train an assault trooper who must have
[00:08:30] both physical strength and a rifle, he can shoot everything everywhere
[00:08:33] by ear, success depends on this, but for this
[00:08:37] his own school must be created, and
[00:08:40] today such a school exists in Belarus...
[00:09:42] so much is written in Chinese, probably, well, in
[00:09:45] our republic, that's what it says, in principle, we don't always often
[00:09:49] encounter that around the world, so these are very good neighborly relations, but this doesn't mean that only
[00:09:53] Chinese people, and we also go to China to study, we also adopt
[00:09:56] advanced experience, we also strive not to
[00:10:00] lag behind the capabilities
[00:10:03] of modern large states, and to train unique
[00:10:06] specialists. Still, when everyone defends their interests
[00:10:10] in this geopolitical tension. Well, is there
[00:10:13] some mechanism that will allow, perhaps, to reduce this degree? Well,
[00:10:17] an initiative from Minsk, the Charter of Diversity,
[00:10:20] multipolarity, is voiced, constant appeals
[00:10:23] from the rostrum, come on.
[00:10:55] greatly spoils our relations. After all,
[00:10:58] none of these countries refused to remove, for example, the
[00:11:01] engineering barriers from the border that it had. Not a single country
[00:11:05] has officially lifted any sanctions from us, and these were imposed
[00:11:08] illegally in violation
[00:11:11] of the UN Security Council.
[00:11:15] After all, so far we only see
[00:11:17] words. Even the real actions taken with
[00:11:21] the United States are very cautious.
[00:11:25] And the president rightly said, the first words, remember, when he met John
[00:11:28] Coel, "I don't believe you." But we have
[00:11:32] reason not to believe them. Remember how they used to come here
[00:11:36] and constantly smiled at us,
[00:11:39] when they told us about the prospects of a united European
[00:11:43] family, about how Belarus would develop, how it
[00:11:47] was awaited with such embraces, how softly they laid the bed,
[00:11:51] and how suddenly after 2020, it became hard to sleep. Uh-huh.
[00:12:55] celebrated the anniversary of the Austrian-Belarusian Society, the successes of the Belarusian
[00:12:59] stargazer at the Olympiad in Vietnam, and the awards of our athletes in
[00:13:02] Spain, as well as modern painting of Sinio in Russia and
[00:13:06] the Belarusian cultural spring in Kazakhstan. "Time of Belarus"
[00:13:09] in Vienna, it was here 20 years ago that a unique
[00:13:13] space for mutual understanding, the Austrian-Belarusian Society, was created.
[00:13:16] This is not just an anniversary date: an important milestone
[00:13:20] in the life path of people who strive to develop friendly
[00:13:23] relations between countries. Over the past years, various
[00:13:27] projects have been implemented: historical seminars, concerts, cultural
[00:13:31] evenings, meetings with representatives of academic and creative
[00:13:34] circles, and a common concern brought the countries closer. Austrian
[00:13:38] partners have for many years organized summer holidays for
[00:13:41] Belarusian children affected by the Chernobyl disaster. And this
[00:13:45] is all people's diplomacy in action, which helps people
[00:13:49] understand each other better. And now we move to Vietnam, where
[00:13:52] the star of Belarusian genius lit up. Gold of the International
[00:13:56] Astronomy and Astrophysics Olympiad goes to Yan
[00:13:59] Terekhov, a graduate of the Grodno Lyceum. For him, this victory
[00:14:02] is especially significant because exactly a year ago, at the same competition in
[00:14:06] India, he was second, now he has no equals. The Olympiad
[00:14:09] gathered over 300 schoolchildren from 64 countries.
[00:14:13] Participants had to solve very complex problems, for example, to analyze
[00:14:17] real astronomical data and recognize celestial
[00:14:20] objects. It's generally nice that with enviable regularity we talk about
[00:14:24] the successes of Belarusian education in the world, moreover, at different stages
[00:14:27] of education. Two Belarusian universities are in the ranking of the British publication
[00:14:31] Times Higher Education. It is included in the top three most prestigious
[00:14:35] university rankings in the world and is updated every year. In
[00:14:38] the list for 2027 is Belarusian State
[00:14:42] University and for the first time in history, Belarusian
[00:14:44] State Medical University. Among the indicators
[00:14:48] by which universities were evaluated, are teaching quality,
[00:14:51] international ties, interaction with industry. In total,
[00:17:07] true landscapes, or fleeting phenomena such as sunrise or
[00:17:11] twilight, result in not just a set of pictures, but a large portrait
[00:17:14] of the country, through mood and color. Belarus has become
[00:17:18] closer to the residents of Kazakhstan, in the south of the country, in the Jambyl
[00:17:22] region, the Belarusian Krynica, a new ethnocultural
[00:17:25] association, was born. Its appearance was celebrated with a big holiday.
[00:17:29] The organizers spoke about the history of Belarusians in Kazakhstan, about
[00:17:32] national life, customs, which are carefully preserved and
[00:17:35] passed down from generation to generation.
[00:18:37] autumn will feature performances by Belarusian ensembles and
[00:18:40] musicians, as well as performers from Italy, USA,
[00:18:44] and Israel. On the large concert stage of the Belarusian State Philharmonic,
[00:18:47] 25 concerts will be presented, and in the small hall,
[00:18:51] 16 musical projects. For Minsk residents and guests of the capital, this
[00:18:54] musical autumn will bring many pleasant emotions, the warmth
[00:18:58] of the Italian sun, a performance by vocalist Riccardo Faresi,
[00:19:01] revolutionary jazz vocals, and also blues, soul, and funk from
[00:19:05] the unique trumpeter from Baltimore,
[00:19:07] as well as evenings with masterpieces of German organ music and
[00:19:11] Vivaldi's unique violin. In short, for every taste and interest,
[00:19:59] The Prime Minister of Kazakhstan paid an official visit to
[00:20:02] Belarus.
[00:20:04] The Ninth Congress of Teachers and Education Workers. The participants
[00:20:23] of the meeting of the Eurasian Intergovernmental Council
[00:20:26] reaffirmed Belarus's commitment to integration processes,
[00:20:30] primarily in the post-Soviet space. The Head of State
[00:20:33] noted that during his long period of leadership
[00:20:36] of the country.
[00:22:20] The Head of State noted that Kazakhstan is a very interesting
[00:22:22] partner and a friendly country for Belarus.
[00:22:25] There are no closed topics, cooperation covers all
[00:22:29] key areas, from agriculture and industry to
[00:22:33] trade and services. Economies complement each
[00:22:36] other, which helps to build long-term
[00:22:39] partnerships. The Prime Ministers of the two countries discussed the development of
[00:22:42] cooperation. Negotiations were held in an expanded
[00:22:45] format. We note with satisfaction the high intensity of
[00:22:49] contacts at the level.
[00:23:01] The positive dynamics of economic interaction are maintained by
[00:23:05] the effective activities of the intergovernmental
[00:23:07] Belarusian-Kazakhstani commission on trade and economic
[00:23:11] cooperation. The decisions adopted at its meetings
[00:23:14] allow for the intensification of Belarusian-Kazakhstani
[00:23:17] cooperation in various directions. Alexander
[00:23:20] Turchin made a proposal to hold a joint
[00:23:23] Belarusian-Kazakhstani forum. Following the results, a number of international
[00:23:26] documents were signed. In
[00:23:29] Belarus, a large industrial week has concluded. On an area of more than
[00:23:33] 20,000 m2, over 500 of the largest
[00:23:37] companies from 40 countries presented their advanced solutions. On the sidelines
[00:23:40] of the exhibition, a meeting of the council of heads of chambers of commerce and industry
[00:23:44] of CIS countries was held. The focus was on discussing the organization
[00:23:47] of joint expositions. In parallel, participants shared
[00:23:51] their experience in using electronic systems for confirming the origin of goods in
[00:23:54] the Commonwealth, evaluated the results of their work, and outlined plans for
[00:23:58] the near future.
[00:24:02] Belarus hosted the ninth congress of teachers and education workers
[00:24:06] from CIS member states. The main theme of the large-scale forum
[00:24:09] was integration processes in the field of education in the context of
[00:24:13] modern challenges. The competitiveness of each
[00:24:16] state depends on
[00:24:20] the system of training, on the system
[00:24:22] of education that exists in countries.
[00:24:26] When there is strong intellectual potential,
[00:24:29] the economy will develop, all spheres will develop,
[00:24:33] which exist and
[00:24:35] which function in our states,
[00:24:39] a common educational space will develop. For
[00:24:42] two days, participants exchanged professional
[00:24:45] experience, worked in specialized sections, held discussions on
[00:24:49] thematic... and master classes. The congress became
[00:24:52] a unique platform for exchanging author's
[00:24:55] methodologies. The traditions of Chinese art
[00:24:58] were presented to the Minsk audience. At the National Art Museum,
[00:25:02] an exhibition "Art of the Silk Road,
[00:25:04] Soul of Craft, Reflection above the Clouds" opened. The exhibition features about
[00:25:08] thirty works by contemporary Chinese masters. Metal
[00:25:11] bowls and jewelry, panels and
[00:25:14] lithography, sculptures and vases are presented. Also in the exhibition
[00:25:18] hall are vases by Belarusian masters based on Chinese motifs.
[00:25:21] The traditional art of China is presented to our viewers,
[00:25:25] as well as several works by Belarusian
[00:25:28] artists. Certain exhibits were selected
[00:25:31] that are designed to show the multifacetedness and
[00:25:35] technological and thematic aspects of traditional
[00:25:39] Chinese art, and to some extent, certain
[00:25:42] exhibits characterized
[00:25:45] by experimentation. The dominant concept of this project is
[00:25:48] to show mutual understanding,
[00:25:52] cooperation between China and
[00:25:55] Belarus. The exhibition features, for the first time, bamboo
[00:25:59] and velvet applications, a treasure of China. This work
[00:26:02] by Chinese masters was donated to the Foundation of the Art Museum.
