[00:00:00] The political
[00:00:03] aspects that the European Union implements will continue. What is
[00:00:07] it about? The leadership of
[00:00:10] the European Union wants to roll
[00:00:14] back food production in Europe. Let's
[00:00:18] buy from South America, we will
[00:00:20] import, our own production,
[00:00:24] we will limit it only to the level of certain
[00:00:27] high-quality products. But for Hungary,
[00:00:30] this applies directly.
[00:00:34] We see that the European Union is essentially
[00:00:37] stopping support for
[00:00:40] Hungarian agriculture, but Hungary is an agricultural
[00:00:43] country. If we lose our
[00:00:46] agriculture, what will be left
[00:01:00] fed, if not all of Europe, then a significant part. And where are they
[00:01:03] now? It seems to me that they can't even provide for themselves anymore. Here in
[00:01:07] Hungary, it's the same story.
[00:01:11] Well, unfortunately, from the Hungarian market, Hungarian apples,
[00:01:14] Hungarian peaches, Hungarian
[00:01:18] cherries, everything that we produce, is already disappearing.
[00:01:21] So all this goes to
[00:01:24] import. Now we see another dangerous
[00:01:27] phenomenon. The European Union constantly wants to pull
[00:01:30] Ukraine into the European Union.
[00:01:33] The appearance of Ukrainian agriculture on the
[00:01:36] European market destroys not only
[00:01:40] Hungarian agriculture, but also the very
[00:01:43] existence of the agricultural sector in
[00:01:46] Hungary. This undermines Hungary's living
[00:01:49] standards, undermines our, our, so
[00:01:52] to speak, our sovereignty in the field
[00:01:55] of agriculture, because a huge
[00:01:58] number of Ukrainians are appearing.
[00:03:00] Today, this historical cynicism is expressed in concrete figures. The Stockholm International Peace
[00:03:04] Research Institute recorded that global spending
[00:03:07] on weapons reached 2.887
[00:03:10] billion dollars, which is 352 dollars from each
[00:03:14] inhabitant of the Earth. The current scale of the food crisis on the planet
[00:03:17] remains critical. Outbreaks of hunger occur precisely where
[00:03:20] protracted armed conflicts rage. Wars destroy
[00:03:23] agriculture, block food supplies, and turn food into
[00:03:27] a weapon with chronic malnutrition everywhere. Approximately
[00:03:30] 645 million people, Africa suffers the most,
[00:03:34] where one in five residents starves, as well as Asia, where the number
[00:03:37] of emaciated people exceeds 290 million people.
[00:03:40] The main hotbeds of disaster on the political map remain Somalia,
[00:03:44] Haiti, Madagascar, the Syrian Arab Republic, and
[00:03:47] the Democratic Republic of Congo, where between
[00:03:50] 40 and almost 60% of the population suffers from severe food shortages.
[00:03:53] And now let's compare this with the cost of saving
[00:03:57] people from death. According to the UN World Food Program,
[00:04:30] in their pockets, to feed these people. Well,
[00:04:33] indeed, in many African countries, this problem is acute, and we came with
[00:04:37] a certain agricultural, first of all,
[00:04:40] strategy. And we help
[00:04:44] in Zimbabwe and other countries to restore agriculture
[00:04:47] so that they can independently, with the help of our Belarusian
[00:04:51] Minsk tractors, grow and produce
[00:04:54] food, feed themselves. It seems to me that this is the only correct strategy,
[00:04:58] if we scale this up to the stated topic, the only correct
[00:05:01] strategy for solving the problem of hunger. Yes, this is the only
[00:05:05] correct strategy, because you can't bring
[00:05:08] all the food and feed everyone. This is one point. The second point is, people, in order
[00:05:12] to be able to provide themselves with food, must produce
[00:05:15] it themselves, feel, work on their land. This is exactly
[00:05:19] the strategy of the Republic of Belarus. We already mentioned Zimbabwe. It was
[00:05:22] with the help of the Republic of Belarus that Zimbabwe was able to provide itself
[00:05:26] with food. The Republic of Belarus not only supplies
[00:05:30] products, but it insists on
[00:05:32] organizing production, on localizing enterprises, on
[00:05:36] supplying equipment and solutions,
[00:05:39] comprehensive solutions that will help process.
[00:06:42] This is the policy model of the European Union's development
[00:06:46] for the last 35 years,
[00:06:49] that is, a model that is based on
[00:06:52] aid to some non-governmental
[00:06:56] organizations, NGOs, that will engage in
[00:07:00] politics instead of local government, local
[00:07:03] Ministry of Agriculture and
[00:07:07] local state
[00:07:10] structures. On the contrary, we need to develop
[00:07:13] these states, give them
[00:07:17] power, so that they create,
[00:07:21] structure their market and their
[00:07:24] agricultural
[00:07:28] policy. It is precisely the depoliticization
[00:07:30] of politics, as aid,
[00:07:34] development and cooperation, that the European
[00:07:37] Union was engaged in, that is not
[00:07:40] working. Yuryevich, I can't shake off the thought
[00:07:42] we talked about, that someone definitely needs it. I would
[00:07:46] like to recall the scandalous article
[00:07:49] on, pay attention, the UN website, which was deleted in 2022.
[00:07:53] An article by a professor
[00:07:57] from the University of Hawaii, a respected person,
[00:08:00] who claims that essentially, global hunger is
[00:08:04] a blessing, because crowds, I am quoting now
[00:08:07] the respected professor, crowds
[00:08:09] of hungry people who want to work...
[00:08:42] That's the first thing. Secondly, what I want to
[00:08:46] say, what is actually
[00:08:49] manifested in these words of this professor,
[00:08:52] we see it in the example of the grain deal, which, by the way,
[00:08:56] was implemented, and I remind you that it was extended
[00:08:59] three times, and initially it was aimed at, well, firstly, of course,
[00:09:03] reducing global food prices, but
[00:09:05] secondly, at humanitarian aid to countries in Africa and the Middle
[00:09:09] East, well, by the way, also Afghanistan. In fact, as we can see...
[00:09:32] Italy, Spain, well, of course, some went to Asia and so on, but
[00:09:36] the very fact, the very fact, food should not
[00:09:40] be supplied for free.
[00:10:55] Approximately 80%
[00:10:59] of small food trade
[00:11:02] is handled by foreign
[00:11:04] companies. That is, however much Hungarian
[00:11:08] producers want to supply their products to the Hungarian
[00:11:11] market, they are objectively squeezed out, because
[00:11:15] supermarkets and large
[00:11:18] food stores belong to foreign capital,
[00:11:21] and the same process
[00:11:25] can be seen in other European
[00:11:28] countries. That is, large capital
[00:11:31] owns many other countries,
[00:11:35] uses our resources, uses our money, our
[00:11:39] sources, and it's not just
[00:11:42] the colonization of African countries that is happening now,
[00:11:45] it's the colonization of
[00:12:11] a flap of a wing, which in one part can
[00:12:15] cause, provoke a tornado in another. The war in
[00:12:19] the Middle East with the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz immediately
[00:12:22] provoked
[00:12:25] an effect all over the world, an effect of a peculiar
[00:12:28] earthquake, immediately a few
[00:12:32] weeks after this story, Estonian farmers, remember
[00:12:35] spring, were forced to abandon the
[00:12:39] sowing campaign in some farms,
[00:12:42] calculating future losses, and housewives in
[00:12:46] France, Germany and Italy this summer
[00:12:49] make big eyes when they come to the store and look at
[00:12:52] the price tags.
[00:13:25] against Western
[00:13:27] imperialism, so this
[00:13:31] of course greatly affects
[00:13:33] prices. We on the entire south of Italy now
[00:13:36] there is a strike, for several
[00:13:39] days already,
[00:13:42] you can't even find basic products in
[00:13:44] the market in stores. Now
[00:13:48] Meloni, the Meloni government, of course,
[00:13:52] naturally, their fascist...
[00:14:55] raising the average diesel price to a record 2 euros 30 cents
[00:14:58] per liter. Economists divide this massive crisis into three
[00:15:01] interrelated stages. It all started with a raw material shock. A sharp rise
[00:15:05] in natural gas prices led to the shutdown of factories and a jump in the cost
[00:15:08] of carbamide by a third. Because of this, farmers around the world reduced fertilizer
[00:15:12] purchases, which triggered the second stage of the stock market explosion. Financial markets
[00:15:16] immediately played ahead of the curve, which caused wheat to instantly rise in price by more than
[00:15:20] 30%. Sugar added 18%, rice 13%, corn and
[00:15:23] soy grew by an average of 15%. The final stage
[00:15:27] was a transport collapse, when soaring raw material prices
[00:15:30] were superimposed on the exorbitant cost of automotive fuel, increasing
[00:15:33] the operating costs of one truck by 1,000 euros every 4 days.
[00:15:37] This logistical deadlock provoked a wave of radical protests across
[00:15:41] Europe. Thus, in the south of Italy, 7,000 transport companies announced
[00:15:45] a strike and blocked highways, which caused the shelves of local
[00:15:48] supermarkets to instantly empty. In neighboring Spain, due to
[00:15:51] the rise in agricultural diesel prices by 48%, the
[00:15:54] trade union organized a tractor siege of Barcelona. Other farmers
[00:15:58] blocked freight traffic on the border with Portugal. In Ireland,
[00:16:01] farmers blocked the country's only oil refinery,
[00:16:05] Whitegate. They were also protesting
[00:16:07] against the jump in fuel prices. The situation remains no less acute in France, where
[00:16:11] general protests against the cost of living brought 500 thousand
[00:16:15] people to the streets, and gasoline in some places exceeded 2 euros 40 cents per liter.
[00:16:19] To stop the riots, the French authorities urgently released 10
[00:16:22] million barrels of diesel from strategic reserves, and Emmanuel
[00:16:26] Macron went to the UAE for fuel. Earlier, French fishermen
[00:16:29] blocked the ports of Caen and Nice, and farmers began to destroy road radars
[00:16:32] at night and threatened to move columns of tractors
[00:16:36] directly to Paris. The crisis has also affected the USA. Amid soaring diesel
[00:16:40] and gasoline prices, farmers have to overload agricultural machinery and wage
[00:16:43] a tough struggle for every liter of fuel in
[00:16:45] the fields. Yulia Konstantinovna, as an
[00:16:49] economic expert, how do you
[00:16:52] see the next agricultural season in
[00:16:55] the world, in Europe, in particular, given
[00:16:58] this factor, which obviously has, well,
[00:17:02] a very protracted consequence,
[00:17:04] this is the Strait of Hormuz, we have already been told.
[00:17:15] which, when shelled, become unusable,
[00:17:19] and to repair them, you need to invest money, and for that tanker
[00:17:22] to go, it needs to be filled with fuel, the same
[00:17:25] fuel that will carry it. So everything that
[00:17:29] contributes to the transportation of oil, from which all
[00:17:32] resources will then be extracted, is becoming more expensive. At the end of the chain,
[00:17:36] all this is reflected in the
[00:17:39] price.
[00:17:43] But besides that, all the fertilizers, all the
[00:17:47] means and resources that will not reach agricultural
[00:17:50] enterprises, will lead to the fact that there was no sowing, no
[00:17:53] harvesting, and there will be no next sowing, no
[00:17:56] modernization, no development, no replacement of equipment, no
[00:18:00] selection of new materials, new
[00:18:03] seeds, new meat and dairy products.
[00:18:08] Nothing new will happen. Everything is going, well,
[00:18:11] down, it's going away completely,
[00:18:14] it's collapsing, and accordingly, there is
[00:18:17] nothing, there will be nothing to harvest. That is, this problem will
[00:18:20] grow, and hunger now, and the problem with food, with prices and
[00:18:24] generally with the availability of food, will already affect not only African
[00:19:07] punishes, let's summarize all the factors that
[00:19:11] trigger the situation in the European food
[00:19:14] market, the consequence of the Strait of Hormuz,
[00:19:17] already mentioned, the rejection of Russian
[00:19:20] energy carriers, and also in the context of the US diesel deal,
[00:19:24] let's see how this story will develop and how much they will pay for
[00:19:27] fuel, which will ultimately affect the price of bread,
[00:19:31] and the heat that
[00:19:34] covered Europe this season along the way. Considering
[00:19:38] the trends and forecasts of meteorologists, this will be a regular
[00:19:40] story, apparently, for what sins has
[00:19:44] the European Union suffered so much? But you know, the funniest thing about
[00:19:48] this situation, and the saddest thing at the same time, is that
[00:19:51] not only external factors punish the European Union, but Brussels
[00:19:54] itself punishes the European Union.
[00:19:57] Why? Why is this happening? Because I remind you that
[00:20:00] there is a so-called green deal. Within this green
[00:20:04] deal, the farm to fork strategy
[00:20:08] implies additional requirements for European
[00:20:11] farmers, meaning they must produce quality
[00:20:14] products with less use of
[00:20:17] chemicals, hence higher quality, but at the same time
[00:20:20] reduce fields. It turns out that the cost
[00:20:24] increases, otherwise these products will not
[00:20:26] reach the shelves, the European Union simply will not
[00:20:30] accept it. Plus, there are all sorts of bureaucratic procedures,
[00:20:33] farmers are forced to follow this path, and
[00:20:37] despite all this, the funniest thing is, why are farmers striking? That's
[00:20:40] understandable, because Ukrainian grain,
[00:20:43] South American grain, goes directly,
[00:20:47] without these obstacles and barriers.
[00:21:20] Union, or rather the current leadership of the European
[00:21:23] Union, allows South American goods
[00:21:27] into the European market. This
[00:21:30] undermines the production
[00:21:33] of agricultural products in Europe, undermines prices,
[00:21:36] undermines the social situation of the people
[00:21:40] working in agriculture, and it is no
[00:21:42] coincidence that the next budget of the European Union
[00:21:46] and... the European
[00:21:57] Union is being discussed, because without
[00:22:01] the necessary support for agricultural
[00:22:04] producers in Hungary and Eastern European countries,
[00:22:08] the future of European, Hungarian agriculture
[00:22:11] can be written off. And in addition
[00:22:14] to that, the increase in prices for energy carriers, which you
[00:22:18] mentioned. The war on
[00:22:22] the territory of Ukraine, unresolved issues
[00:22:25] between the European Union and the Russian
[00:22:28] Federation, all this creates a very
[00:22:31] unfavorable situation. And we
[00:22:35] are seriously afraid for the future
[00:22:37] of Hungarian agriculture, and not only
[00:22:40] agriculture, but the preservation of the living
[00:22:44] standards of the majority of the Hungarian population. The thesis has been repeatedly stated in
[00:22:47] this studio that.
[00:23:20] states, newcomers, but not really newcomers
[00:23:23] to the EU, are simply sterilized, depriving
[00:23:26] them of, well, some national, historically
[00:23:29] established features of agricultural
[00:23:32] production. The already mentioned Bulgaria, let's remember in this
[00:23:36] sense Latvia, where once, it's true,
[00:23:39] the sugar industry flourished in the Baltics,
[00:23:41] of course. What is left of it now? Well, perhaps
[00:23:45] only museum exhibits. Many examples can be given
[00:23:48] here. Matei, who
[00:23:52] benefits from such a European
[00:23:55] unification, behind which, in reality,
[00:23:59] we see a terrible picture of simply
[00:24:03] the destruction of national features
[00:24:06] of agriculture, of course, with some of its
[00:24:09] own peculiarities, climatic, historical, in each
[00:24:12] state?
[00:24:16] We are in a phase where
[00:24:20] all filters are lost from imperialism,
[00:24:23] and we can consider, now the European Union,
[00:24:27] a puppet governed, especially from
[00:24:29] London,
[00:24:32] these methods of agriculture,
[00:24:35] that are deteriorating, are made to
[00:24:39] colonize and hold even
[00:24:42] stronger, and especially for Italy
[00:24:46] this is a tragedy, because our economy, our country
[00:24:50] has always been very tied to agriculture. More than
[00:24:53] half of our territory is
[00:24:55] in agricultural
[00:24:59] production, so
[00:25:02] this is now a vital issue for us,
[00:25:05] and we need to unite with all these
[00:25:09] forces that want to free the world from
[00:25:12] this domination. It won't be immediate, it won't
[00:25:16] be easy, but it is now already a vital issue, it seems to me.
[00:25:50] grapes, for example, for wine, the highest
[00:25:53] quality production of olive oil in
[00:25:56] the world and grow
[00:26:00] from tropical to... luxury
[00:26:05] sector and
[00:26:06] for
[00:26:14] global bourgeoisie little is left for the Italian
[00:26:17] people and there are also many cases
[00:26:20] of exploitation of workers,
[00:26:23] who are exploited for 50
[00:26:26] cents an hour to
[00:26:29] work in the fields,
[00:26:32] for tomatoes, for example, and there are such
[00:26:35] cases, of course, where also criminal organizations, well, the Italian
[00:26:39] mafia, also
[00:26:43] especially exploit all
[00:26:46] this production in the south, it already
[00:26:50] shows situations, as you rightly said, not only in
[00:26:53] the third world, but in Africa and so on, well,
[00:26:57] also here there are indeed such
[00:27:00] working conditions now.
[00:27:41] agricultural policy of Brussels, which imposed on the member states
[00:27:44] uniform environmental standards, quotas and unequal subsidization
[00:27:47] conditions. This bureaucratic dictate hit, among
[00:27:51] others, the Baltic countries, Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia. Receiving significantly
[00:27:54] fewer direct subsidies from Brussels compared to old Europe, local
[00:27:58] farmers were forced to comply with all the strict requirements of the green
[00:28:01] transition. Coupled with the surge in energy prices, this provoked
[00:28:05] a mass closure of farms, which, for example, meant that domestic production in Latvia
[00:28:09] only met a quarter of the country's domestic food needs.
[00:28:13] As a result, the Baltics, from being an exporter of basic products, turned into a market
[00:28:16] for surplus goods from Germany and France. Meanwhile, the south
[00:28:20] of the continent, Spain, Italy and Greece, found themselves alone with
[00:28:23] a catastrophic drought. Instead of supporting the traditional breadbasket,
[00:28:26] the EU forcibly cut fertilizer use. Falling
[00:28:30] yields combined with eco-costs deprived local farmers
[00:28:33] of competitiveness, forcing Spain and Italy to replace their own
[00:28:36] production with cheap imports from North Africa. The situation
[00:28:40] was exacerbated by the EU-Mercosur agreement, which launched duty-free
[00:28:43] imports of Latin American raw materials from May 1, with a beef quota of up to
[00:28:47] 99 thousand tons per year. Cheap meat, unencumbered
[00:28:51] by EU environmental taxes, brought livestock breeders in France and Belgium
[00:28:54] to the brink of ruin, which resulted in months of strikes
[00:28:57] and the blockade of Brussels. In Poland, farmers also often block borders,
[00:29:01] protesting against.
[00:31:08] currently so dedicated
[00:31:12] to the fight for the climate, the fight against
[00:31:15] the greenhouse effect, and so on, that yes, to such
[00:31:18] an extent that it is a kind of mainstream for
[00:31:21] federal media,
[00:31:24] for it's a kind of fashion today. It's like,
[00:31:27] transgenders, transgenders are fashionable, this is also fashionable
[00:31:30] now, so any person,
[00:31:33] any politician who speaks with
[00:31:36] criticism of such measures, automatically
[00:31:39] becomes a marginal and even an outcast, he is lost from
[00:31:42] an electoral point of view today.
[00:31:46] for his voters, he has no future. This is the first point.
[00:31:49] The second point is, let's understand, doesn't Europe
[00:31:52] understand what it's doing? Of course, it understands, of course, it understands, but
[00:31:56] why is it doing this? Because the main
[00:31:59] beneficiary of this situation is
[00:32:03] those large agro-industrial holdings that
[00:32:06] I started talking about today, because they came in,
[00:32:10] they buy fields for next to nothing from farmers
[00:32:14] who cannot cope with this. In
[00:32:17] accordance with their standards, they have a staff of lawyers, a staff of environmentalists, and so
[00:32:20] on. They supply products to supermarkets,
[00:32:24] thus occupying the market. And farmers,
[00:32:27] who, besides driving a tractor and working the land all their lives,
[00:32:31] don't know anything else, they don't have the opportunity to hire an environmentalist, a lawyer, they don't
[00:32:34] have the opportunity to fill out paperwork, and he
[00:32:37] is not ready to suffer from
[00:32:40] additional regulations, so of course he
[00:32:43] is actually forced to become bankrupt. That is, what is happening?
[00:32:46] Thus, European bureaucracy is putting
[00:32:49] European agriculture in a straitjacket.
[00:32:53] All. Gyula, let's scale
[00:32:57] this topic up. We are discussing such global
[00:33:00] categories, which may not
[00:33:04] be very important for the most ordinary
[00:33:07] European housewives, since we are talking about Europe. Do
[00:33:11] you go to the store?
[00:33:14] Do you know how much a bottle
[00:33:17] of milk, a can of sour cream,
[00:33:20] a loaf of bread costs in Hungary?
[00:33:23] How does this relate to, say, the average salary?
[00:33:27] Have you compared what, say, in Belarus is called
[00:33:31] the "borscht set" or some kind of collective image
[00:33:34] of a consumer basket? Has it changed in terms of
[00:33:38] price over the past few years, over the past 5
[00:33:41] years?
[00:33:44] Yes, food prices in Hungary
[00:33:48] are constantly rising. After the European
[00:33:51] Union joined, essentially the
[00:33:54] price level equalized, although
[00:33:57] wages are still lower, but prices
[00:34:01] are about the same as in Vienna or somewhere in Austria
[00:34:04] or in Germany. And prices
[00:34:07] continue, unfortunately, to rise. This is
[00:34:10] the first point. The second point, what you said, that
[00:34:14] it's very difficult to do anything against this, because
[00:34:18] the network
[00:34:21] of stores is in the hands of foreign capital, not
[00:34:25] Hungarian. It is precisely foreign
[00:34:28] capital. How to fight them? And
[00:34:32] we also face the problem that everything that
[00:34:35] was truly Hungarian is disappearing
[00:34:39] from stores. That is, we eat about
[00:34:42] the same tomatoes, and it doesn't matter if you are in
[00:34:45] France, Italy, or Hungary,
[00:34:48] the same standard tomatoes, standard
[00:34:52] cucumbers, standard things, and often not always
[00:34:56] good, high
[00:34:58] quality. This is already causing discontent among
[00:35:02] the Hungarian population, because, well, we would like
[00:35:05] to eat our Hungarian apples, but they are not there,
[00:35:09] Hungarian meat, it is also
[00:35:12] disappearing and...
[00:35:15] the expansion of opportunities for the European Union undermines
[00:35:19] our agriculture, because the question is not only
[00:35:23] about where who sells what, but for example,
[00:35:27] sowing materials, fertilizers that we
[00:35:30] buy, it now turns out that the fertilizer market
[00:35:33] is again occupied by foreign
[00:35:35] capital, and this leads to
[00:35:39] undermining Hungary's sovereignty both
[00:35:42] in an agrarian sense and in terms of certainty.
[00:35:45] In this context, it would even be ridiculous to mention
[00:35:49] the recommendation of some specialists,
[00:35:52] nutritionists, that you should definitely eat what
[00:35:55] grew within a radius of 500 km,
[00:35:58] a maximum of 500 km from the house you live in. In this
[00:36:02] sense, European agrarian unification, even contrary to these
[00:36:05] laws, but that's not the point, Mateo, let's
[00:36:09] return to another
[00:36:11] factor, already mentioned this season, incredible heat. In
[00:36:15] Italy, this season, it was
[00:36:18] above forty, and how
[00:36:21] did this affect food
[00:36:23] prices?
[00:36:27] No, it was certainly terrible, I say this
[00:36:30] personally, I am 40 years old, I don't
[00:36:34] remember, it was never this hot, many
[00:36:38] elderly people and people who suffered from
[00:36:41] heart disease or other illnesses died
[00:36:45] here, and
[00:36:48] I generally think the sale of air conditioners
[00:36:52] was up 100-200%
[00:36:56] from last year, this business made
[00:36:59] a lot of money, and now there are
[00:37:02] statistics that globally, all
[00:37:05] these factors are coming
[00:37:08] together with the heat, there's a crisis
[00:37:12] in energy and finance and
[00:37:16] so on, by 2027 we expect food prices to
[00:37:19] rise three times,
[00:37:22] so this is already a consequence
[00:37:26] of all these - it's even difficult
[00:37:29] to predict this trend,
[00:37:32] it's even difficult to
[00:37:35] imagine. This is already being felt in Italy, they
[00:37:39] started harvesting grapes, for
[00:37:42] example, in August, which is
[00:37:44] quite unique, they started making wine
[00:37:48] 2 months before the usual time,
[00:37:52] so even in the south, for example, in
[00:37:55] Sicily, they are starting to grow with air conditioners.
[00:38:12] Well, how can one not remember the famous story during
[00:38:15] the heatwave, when, respect to
[00:38:18] Brussels for this, the famous building in the center
[00:38:22] of the Belgian capital, where the European Commission's
[00:38:25] office is located, in solidarity, turned
[00:38:28] off its air conditioners,
[00:38:31] a beautiful, elegant step, though not on all
[00:38:34] floors, where Ursula von der Leyen's
[00:38:37] office is located, the air conditioners
[00:38:40] on that day when it was
[00:38:43] over 40
[00:39:14] today resembles military technology, and not,
[00:39:17] not technology that contributes to, well,
[00:39:21] eliminating the food
[00:39:58] to large Western capital, which will then use it for
[00:40:01] its own purposes. Well, looking at this picture, I would like
[00:40:05] to remind esteemed European
[00:40:09] politicians that
[00:40:11] ambitions are a fickle thing, but
[00:40:14] European citizens always
[00:40:17] want to eat.
[00:55:22] a logistics corridor to the largest country in Southeast
[00:55:25] Asia. The new route will connect Belarus and
[00:55:27] Indonesia, with deliveries going in both directions.
[00:55:31] Delivery of goods will take about a month. The main technical...
[00:55:35] the country is moving to a fundamentally new level of professional
[00:55:38] training. BNTU, in cooperation with BelAZ, has launched
[00:55:41] super high-tech laboratories. Now students
[00:55:44] will operate dump trucks directly from the classroom, creating
[00:55:47] projects that will be embodied in metal on the conveyor belt. Non-standard
[00:55:51] clinical cases of artificial intelligence application were discussed by
[00:55:55] participants of the Innovative Cardiology Congress in Minsk.
[00:55:59] The event was timed to coincide with the ninety-fifth anniversary of the Republican
[00:56:02] Clinical Medical Center of the President's Administration.
[00:56:06] This year, representatives from Uzbekistan, Azerbaijan, Tajikistan,
[00:56:09] Russia, India, Turkey, Israel, and China came to Belarus. Important
[00:56:12] news and the most
[00:56:15] discussed topics, reviews of significant events,
[00:56:19] analytics, expert opinions, exclusive
[00:56:22] interviews. Watch the "Events" program on
