[00:02:28] First of all. This mission
[00:02:31] is humanitarian, our task now
[00:02:35] was to determine the needs of the population for humanitarian
[00:02:38] aid, what people need, we requested
[00:02:42] information, formed a list of necessary
[00:02:45] items for ourselves, first of all - this is food,
[00:02:49] medicines, hygiene products, this
[00:02:53] is fuel, this is what
[00:02:56] is needed for heating.
[00:03:00] In connection with the humanitarian mission, a ceasefire regime has been in effect since 4 am.
[00:03:03] According to Lantratova, the agreement is being observed,
[00:03:07] no incidents have occurred during this period of time. The military
[00:03:11] is carrying out all necessary engineering and technical work,
[00:03:14] road demining is underway.
[00:03:17] The start of large-scale demining work
[00:03:21] chapter in the humanitarian mission, where Gomel region became the starting
[00:03:24] point for face-to-face contacts and coordination of the parties.
[00:03:27] Today, delegations of the parties headed by human rights commissioners
[00:03:31] arrived in Belarus to establish safe evacuation
[00:03:34] routes. This fact once again emphasizes the essence
[00:03:38] of the Belarusian character. Our country welcomes people as
[00:03:41] a true warm and native home, where they are sincerely ready
[00:03:45] to help everyone who is in
[00:03:47] trouble. So, the first face-to-face meeting
[00:03:51] of the Russian and Ukrainian delegations took place at Gomel Airport,
[00:03:54] who are participating in the humanitarian operation in the Kherson
[00:03:57] direction. From the first minutes of the meeting, a positive
[00:04:00] tone was set, representatives of Moscow and Kiev exchanged handshakes
[00:04:03] and chatted on their feet. The meeting was held with the participation
[00:04:07] of the Belarusian side, which provides
[00:04:10] maximum assistance in conducting the humanitarian operation. And according to
[00:04:13] the latest information, representatives of Moscow and Kiev have left Gomel
[00:04:17] airport. We are waiting for information from minute to minute
[00:04:20] from our correspondents.
[00:04:28] Minsk and Hanoi are checking their watches on the bilateral track. The Minister of Foreign Affairs
[00:04:31] of Belarus, Maxim Rozhenkov, is on a visit to Vietnam. The schedule of upcoming visits
[00:04:35] at the highest and high levels, as well as the content
[00:04:39] of the cooperation roadmap for 2027-29
[00:04:43] years, was discussed yesterday. What is currently in the focus of the Belarusian
[00:04:46] delegation, our correspondent Yaroslav Danilenko knows.
[00:04:49] The filming crew of the first channel is working in
[00:04:51] Hanoi.
[00:04:54] The second day of the official visit began with a visit to a significant
[00:04:57] complex and a ceremony of laying flowers at the monument
[00:05:01] in honor of Soviet specialists who made their contribution to ensuring the independence and
[00:05:04] peace in Vietnam. The sculptural composition is designed
[00:05:07] to perpetuate the contribution of fraternal states, including the
[00:05:11] Soviet Union, which... in its time provided
[00:05:14] material and moral support, supplied weapons and
[00:05:18] military equipment, sent specialists to assist
[00:05:21] Vietnam. Literally a few interesting facts:
[00:05:24] the composition consists of three figures, two of them depict Soviet military
[00:05:28] specialists, they explain technical and tactical methods
[00:05:31] of air defense. Well, the third figure is a Vietnamese
[00:05:35] pilot who is gaining experience. The composition is installed on
[00:05:38] the territory of the Military History Museum of Vietnam. And this is the second
[00:05:41] today. It is worth noting that the scale is impressive,
[00:05:45] the museum was founded back in 1956,
[00:05:48] it acquired its modern appearance literally a couple of years ago, in
[00:05:51] 2024 it was opened to visitors, and
[00:05:55] here it tells in detail, for example, about the wars of resistance
[00:05:59] against French colonialists and American aggression, many
[00:06:02] interesting exhibits inside a separate mention deserves
[00:06:05] the T-54b tank with side number
[00:06:08] 843, it took part in a decisive operation.
[00:06:19] Ho Chi Minh in 1975 and was recognized
[00:06:23] as a national treasure of Vietnam, a symbol of a new stage in state building. Maxim Rozhenkov presented the museum with a symbolic gift, a commemorative coin from the National Bank for
[00:06:26] the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Belarus from Nazi
[00:06:29] invaders. Ahead for the Belarusian delegation is work on the
[00:06:33] economic track, a visit to the Vietnamese province of
[00:06:36] Hưng Yên. Details will be announced in the next issues. Colleagues,
[00:06:40] the floor is yours. Yes, thank you. Details of the visit of the head of the Belarusian
[00:06:43] Foreign Ministry to Vietnam.
[00:06:46] So, we return to Gomel airport, where the first face-to-face
[00:06:49] meeting of the Russian-Ukrainian delegation took place, which is taking part in the humanitarian operation in
[00:06:53] the Kherson direction. Representatives of Moscow and Kyiv have left
[00:06:57] the airport. Our correspondents are located
[00:07:00] right next to the runway, right now they are coming
[00:07:04] into contact with
[00:07:04] the details.
[00:07:08] Colleagues, we continue to monitor the situation at Gomel
[00:07:11] airport. And as you can see, the plane, with representatives of the Russian-Ukrainian
[00:07:15] delegation on board, as well as journalists from
[00:07:18] the United States of America, Newsmax portal,
[00:07:22] is heading to the territory of the Russian Federation. Of course, I would like to note
[00:07:25] that a warm welcome, as well as everything possible for the parties
[00:07:29] to reach an agreement, was organized by the Belarusian side, and
[00:07:32] I would like to note personally that the Belarusian side
[00:07:35] continues to act in line with a peacekeeping and peace-loving
[00:07:39] position. I would also like to add that right
[00:07:43] now information is being updated on what is happening in the settlement of Oleshki, where
[00:07:47] people continue to submit their lists for evacuation from this city,
[00:07:50] and also create a request for necessary humanitarian aid,
[00:07:54] this is provisions, medicines, and also hygiene
[00:07:57] products. On October 30,
[00:08:00] an inspection will be carried out to determine the conditions in which people currently live
[00:08:04] after what happened at the Kakhovka HPP, after
[00:08:07] hundreds of shellings and
[00:08:10] attacks by unmanned aerial vehicles on the territory
[00:08:14] near this settlement. The residents are indeed
[00:08:17] in a difficult situation, therefore
[00:08:21] comprehensive work will be carried out to provide maximum assistance
[00:08:25] to people, and the Belarusian side is also ready to provide
[00:08:28] assistance to the residents of Oleshki, and this
[00:08:31] is certainly a matter that concerns assistance to people with limited mobility,
[00:08:34] the elderly, children who need priority assistance.
[00:08:38] Belarus is always ready to lend its strong shoulder in this matter, and
[00:08:41] of course, I will also note that among the journalists on
[00:08:45] board, who just left for the territory of the Russian Federation, is our
[00:08:49] correspondent Bendesyuk. She has some
[00:08:52] fragments of her presence from the inside, we will also
[00:08:56] share the details on the first information TV channel
[00:08:59] with Anastasia Bendesyuk.
[00:09:02] The filming crew of the first information channel is already on board, right now we are heading to
[00:09:06] the Russian Federation, from there by ground
[00:09:09] transport, we will get to the settlement. The
[00:09:48] new details have emerged in the case of a large railway accident in Spain.
[00:09:51] The cause of the collision of two trains could have been
[00:09:55] a computer malfunction and subsequent actions of dispatchers, the media write, citing
[00:09:58] the country's transport minister. According to him, due to the loss
[00:10:01] of communication between servers at Urda station, the German
[00:10:05] security system was disabled, as a result, electronic train control
[00:10:08] stopped working on a 63 km section. Trains that were on the line made an emergency stop, but
[00:10:12] soon after the malfunction, the dispatchers mistakenly
[00:10:17] allowed one of the trains to resume movement. The head of the department
[00:10:21] could not explain this step. The train continued on its way and collided with
[00:10:25] another train standing on the tracks. As a result of the disaster, at least
[00:10:29] 68 people died, more than 180 were injured,
[00:10:32] 15 of them are in serious condition.
[00:10:36] I
[00:10:38] was in the eighth car, at the very far end from the point of impact,
[00:10:42] the train stopped suddenly in the middle of the track for about 10 minutes,
[00:10:46] nobody knew anything, there were no announcements, suddenly
[00:10:49] there was an impact, a collision, we were thrown forward, nobody
[00:10:53] knew what was happening, people were screaming, people were crying and there was
[00:10:57] complete chaos, outside the window electricity poles were falling,
[00:11:00] smoke was coming out.
[00:11:03] I hit my head hard, but then I saw that one of the trains
[00:11:06] was almost destroyed, so I'm just grateful that
[00:11:09] I'm alive.
[00:11:11] National mourning has been declared in Spain, traffic on the high-speed southern railway
[00:11:15] line is completely paralyzed temporarily, official events
[00:11:18] with the participation of the king have been cancelled, and also Cup matches have been suspended
[00:11:22] in football.
[00:11:25] Fistfights, flying chair, Armenian Parliament session
[00:11:28] turned into a brawl. A deputy of the ruling Civic
[00:11:32] Contract party sharply criticized the opposition during his speech.
[00:11:35] After that, a verbal altercation broke out between him and the head of the opposition Strong
[00:11:38] Armenia faction, which escalated into a mass
[00:11:42] brawl. When fists started flying, the session
[00:11:45] was interrupted. The scuffle continued
[00:11:49] outside the meeting room, only the state security service managed
[00:11:53] to separate the sides in the corridor.
[00:11:57] The vile actions of Finnish politicians, who always
[00:12:00] hide behind sports, got to UEFA. For
[00:12:03] dirty provocative drawings that have nothing to do with
[00:12:07] sports during the match with Belarus, the Finnish national team will suffer
[00:12:10] punishment. A fine of 30,000 euros, probably
[00:12:14] from the taxpayers' pockets for
[00:12:16] unacceptable posters and disruption of order during the performance
[00:12:19] of national anthems, which especially outraged
[00:12:23] UEFA.
[00:12:30] How to act if an ice storm leaves a settlement without
[00:12:33] electricity, snowfall blocks roads, and too much
[00:12:37] snow accumulates on roofs. In Logoisk district, they are checking how ready the services are
[00:12:41] for such emergencies. Complex exercises are being held here to protect
[00:12:44] the population and territories, and the readiness of civil defense facilities
[00:12:48] will be checked separately. Our function
[00:12:51] is to organize, coordinate,
[00:12:55] and make correct organizational
[00:12:58] decisions in order to, firstly,
[00:13:01] promptly eliminate, secondly, prevent
[00:13:05] spread. Therefore, the district services
[00:13:09] are ready, we are ready
[00:13:12] for any events.
[00:13:16] I hope that the exercises will demonstrate this. As a rule, such exercises
[00:13:19] are held once every 5-7 years. The last time such exercises were held in Logoysk district
[00:13:23] was in 2019.
[00:13:25] We have winter ahead, so
[00:13:29] most of the water is focused on the autumn-winter period. This is
[00:13:32] the elimination of the consequences of emergency situations on
[00:13:35] communal energy networks, on life support facilities
[00:13:38] for the population. This is snow loads, this is the passage
[00:13:41] of freezing rain with mass power outages. Water will also
[00:13:45] be focused on civil defense
[00:13:48] facilities. The need for such training
[00:13:51] is confirmed by statistics. Since the beginning of the year, Minsk region has registered
[00:13:55] emergency situations related to dangerous weather
[00:13:57] phenomena.
[00:14:00] Social knowledge in modern society, problems,
[00:14:03] patterns, prospects. Today, Minsk hosts an international
[00:14:07] scientific conference and experts in the field of sociology from all
[00:14:11] over the CIS space. At this moment, the plenary session
[00:14:14] continues. And Yulia
[00:14:16] Alferova is with us on the line.
[00:14:19] How to build an effective state policy? After all, the state itself
[00:14:22] cannot work well. Well - that means. what resonates with people,
[00:14:26] what is the cross-section of society, this is why social knowledge is necessary
[00:14:30] in Belarus. There are effective methods, this is shown by large
[00:14:33] sociological studies, and we are ready to share our technologies with
[00:14:37] colleagues today at a large conference with representatives from Russia, Uzbekistan,
[00:14:40] Kyrgyzstan, CIS states are represented, and also China.
[00:14:44] We are very happy to welcome our guests from
[00:14:48] different countries and offer them our
[00:14:50] experience, our vision of the situation that exists in
[00:14:54] the world. And as part of our work, we
[00:14:57] plan to present the results of a large sociological study
[00:15:01] that was conducted in our Republic in July-August
[00:15:04] of this year, in order to then move on to
[00:15:08] possible comparative studies, in order
[00:15:11] to show how our Belarusian
[00:15:14] state solves issues of social policy, domestic policy,
[00:15:18] share our experience, acquire some new
[00:15:21] knowledge so that our work in the future will be more...
[00:16:12] from demographic security to migration crises, the outcome of this
[00:16:15] meeting will include the continuation of scientific work.
[00:16:19] Yulia Alferova, Nikolai Lashkevich, First
[00:16:21] Information Channel.
[00:16:23] Minsk has become a center of attraction for the global library
[00:16:27] community as well. The congress "Library as a Phenomenon of Culture" is being held in the capital, one
[00:16:31] of the key themes is the role of women in the field. The forum brought together delegates
[00:16:34] from 19 countries, including leaders,
[00:16:38] scientists and developers of digital
[00:16:42] solutions. Now, after a certain pause,
[00:16:45] broad international ties are being restored, including with European
[00:16:48] Union countries. In this regard, cultural diplomacy,
[00:16:51] library diplomacy, it even goes, perhaps, a little ahead
[00:16:55] officially, that's exactly how it should be, and of course, in this regard,
[00:16:59] in establishing dialogue between countries, the role of libraries is difficult
[00:17:02] to overestimate. Recently, we have been fighting
[00:17:06] a civilizational
[00:17:37] for every child. A large-scale social project has been implemented at the Vileyka special boarding school,
[00:17:41] which combined education, sports,
[00:17:44] and modern technologies. The initiative was supported by senators,
[00:17:48] Belarusian entrepreneurs, and foreign partners. A whole
[00:17:52] multifunctional complex was deployed on the territory
[00:17:55] of the institution under the open sky. Modern
[00:17:58] basketball, volleyball and workout courts appeared,
[00:18:02] the football field was completely reconstructed, a music playground
[00:18:05] and recreation areas were also equipped, and even their own
[00:18:09] was installed. In addition, the school updated its computer class,
[00:18:13] and a sensory room appeared. The hockey rink
[00:18:17] was ceremoniously opened here, guests brought 23 sets of professional
[00:18:20] equipment to the school team, the guys received
[00:18:24] skates, helmets, gloves, protection sticks. This is just an example of
[00:18:27] such a good public-private partnership, focused
[00:18:31] on social development, when the state provides
[00:18:34] opportunities, business supports. and society
[00:18:38] gets a good product in the end, in
[00:18:41] the form of our future generation of children, who
[00:18:45] will be correctly oriented, correctly developed, and
[00:18:48] will bring serious benefit to this
[00:18:51] society, educational development, that is, support in terms of
[00:18:55] computer technologies, creation
[00:18:58] of computer classes and giving these opportunities, this
[00:19:02] is an additional springboard for
[00:19:04] each person to gain that very faith. that
[00:19:07] he will succeed, no matter what family you are from, no
[00:19:11] matter what abilities you have, what matters is if you have
[00:19:15] the desire, then you can achieve your goal. As
[00:19:18] part of the project, students received the opportunity for additional classes
[00:19:22] in English and computer science. The knowledge gained was applied in the development
[00:19:26] of their own IT product based on artificial intelligence,
[00:19:29] they have already managed to present it at a large professional
[00:19:32] forum.
