00:01:00Minsk region, the president on a working trip to Veileysky district. In
00:01:04the aftermath of bad weather, specialists are quickly clearing fallen trees,
00:01:07restoring electricity supply and roofs.
00:01:10Consistent strengthening of integration. Results of the Eurasian
00:01:14Intergovernmental Council in our
00:01:15broadcast.
00:01:18Development of regions, investments in production, increasing the standard and
00:01:22quality of life of rural residents. These topics are today in the focus of attention
00:01:25of the president. Alexander Lukashenka is on a working trip to the Minsk
00:01:28region. The head of state arrived in Veileysky district. Upon arrival,
00:01:32the president is interested in the situation in the region as a whole, particularly in the agro-industrial complex of the
00:01:36region. First impressions from the air. Alexander Lukashenka
00:01:39demands order in the fields. Abandoned territories need to be put into
00:01:42crop rotation, and this work should be carried out throughout the entire region, and
00:01:46not in a single region. At this moment,
00:01:49the head of state is visiting one of the leading enterprises of the Beloma
00:01:52holding, the Zenit Belo factory. Previously, it was famous throughout
00:01:56the entire Soviet Union for its Zenit SLR cameras, which were produced here.
00:03:30not only in BelAZ, you were there, Babruysk Gramash
00:03:33showed a special picker, there is also a lubrication system there,
00:03:37there are identical elements, when we master
00:03:41BelAZ, we are aiming at Gomselmash,
00:03:44Babruysk Gramash and MKKdor, where hydraulic lubrication systems
00:03:48are used, well, it is necessary, of course, for all this to work, lubrication, and
00:03:51hydraulics, I don't know, for now I'm not attempting hydraulics,
00:03:54for now only the lubrication system, this will be your task, understood.
00:03:58We must master hydraulics
00:04:01this or next year, so
00:04:03get ready, just like Karankevich got the baler and
00:04:07this milking robot, so you get hydraulics.
00:04:10Another important topic of the president's
00:04:13working trip is the organization of trade in rural areas.
00:04:16The head of state was shown modern trade facilities in rural
00:04:20areas. Leading retail chains presented their pavilions.
00:04:23Alexander Lukashenko demands a clear system of work, but
00:04:27the main thing is that rural residents should be served with dignity. At this moment,
00:04:31all the most important issues in this area are being discussed at the meeting:
00:04:34to provide the rural population with a wide range of goods to
00:04:37meet their full needs is the key requirement of
00:04:40the president.
00:04:42Belarusian farmers are close to the six million mark. As of today,
00:04:465,989 tons of grain, including
00:04:49rapeseed, have been threshed
00:04:52across the country, which is 2 million more than on the same day last year.
00:04:55Two-thirds of the areas have been harvested. The Minsk region has surpassed the one and a half million mark.
00:04:59The Brest region is close to it with 1,125
00:05:02tons of grain. The Hrodna region farmers
00:05:05threshed 813 tons.
00:05:09638 for Mogilev. Almost
00:05:11half a million is in the Vitebsk region. 86% of
00:05:15flax pulling has been completed, and 76% of the plan
00:05:19for the second hay cutting has been done. 483,000 tons of
00:05:22hay have been harvested, and
00:05:24366,000 tons of silage.
00:05:28Rescuers are clearing the aftermath of bad weather. The passage of a thunderstorm
00:05:31front with wind gusts up to 29 m/s
00:05:34affected 57 settlements across the country. In
00:05:37the Vitebsk region, the roofs of twelve residential buildings, six
00:05:40agricultural buildings, and nine outbuildings were damaged. In the Grodno region,
00:05:44the roofs of 44 residential buildings, in the Minsk region seven, as well as five
00:05:48outbuildings. 280 trees fell, damaging
00:05:5114 cars and a tourist house in
00:05:54a campsite near the village of Kabuzi, in Elaysky district. A child
00:05:58born in 2018 was injured, hospitalized, and already
00:06:02discharged from the hospital. Also, due to falling trees on
00:06:06railway tracks, there was a delay in the movement of two trains in Molodechno
00:06:09district. 430 eight
00:06:12settlements remained without electricity, and of these, 295 were in the Minsk
00:06:15region. Power supply to 852 settlements
00:06:18was periodically disrupted. At the moment,
00:06:22323 settlements remain without power,
00:06:25the consequences of which are being eliminated by 205 emergency
00:06:29brigades. In all affected regions, emergency commissions
00:06:33held meetings where management decisions were made to
00:06:36respond to unfavorable weather phenomena. To
00:06:40eliminate the consequences, 170 units of equipment and 600
00:06:42personnel from the Ministry of Emergency Situations, Ministry of Energy, road services,
00:06:46and forestry are involved.
00:06:49Also, by decision of the Minister for Emergency Situations,
00:06:52cadets of the Ministry of Emergency Situations and a Republican Special Forces detachment
00:06:56were sent to the Vileyka district to assist in eliminating the consequences
00:06:59of the bad weather. And
00:07:02right now, let's find out what the situation is after the bad weather in the Vitebsk region. Marina
00:07:06Romanovskaya on the situation.
00:07:07Романовская.
00:07:10Heavy rains and wind caused power outages in the Vitebsk region,
00:07:14the main impact of the element fell on Dokshytsy and Postavy districts, and
00:07:18the largest number of outages was recorded here.
00:07:21Vitebskenergo now has a special operating
00:07:24mode. Work is underway to remove trees that have fallen on power
00:07:27lines. Consumers are supplied with power through backup
00:07:31power supply schemes, and diesel generator
00:07:34sets are used. In the north of the country, 75 brigades of
00:07:37energy workers are involved, which is more than 270 people.
00:07:41There are problems in 60 points, but this does not mean that they are completely
00:07:45disconnected, they are partially disconnected somewhere, work is underway
00:07:48somewhere, but the consumer is mostly with
00:07:51electricity. Also, the Vitebsk energy system provided assistance to the Minsk
00:07:55energy system, which was most severely affected, this is
00:07:58the Vileyka district. In general, the situation is currently controlled.
00:08:01As a result of the thunderstorm front passing through the
00:08:04Gluboksky district, roofs were damaged in 12 houses, nine
00:08:08outbuildings, and six agricultural buildings.
00:08:11No casualties. Rescuers and other organizations
00:08:15are carrying out sawing and clearing fallen
00:08:18trees. I looked out the window, there was a strong wind,
00:08:21a hurricane, yes, sticks were flying, of course, it was very
00:08:25scary, I have never seen such a hurricane, it lasted a long time,
00:08:29about half an hour, I guess, it was raining somewhere. About 300
00:08:32cases of falling trees
00:08:35have been recorded across the country, there are damaged cars,
00:08:38rescuers continue to monitor
00:08:40the situation.
00:08:46In Moldova, squally winds disabled the key power transmission line
00:08:49Balti-Dnestrovsk, through which Ukraine receives electricity from
00:08:52Romania and Moldova. According to the Ministry of Energy, the rampage of the elements
00:08:56felled about ten high-voltage poles with a capacity of
00:08:59330 kV, just 15 km from
00:09:02Balti. Specialists are already working at the accident site, but it may take up to
00:09:057 days to fully eliminate the consequences. The authorities plan to accelerate
00:09:09repairs by attracting.
00:09:25constant forward movement is needed for consistent strengthening of
00:09:28integration. This was stated by the Prime Minister of Belarus at the meeting
00:09:32of the Eurasian Intergovernmental Council in an expanded format. Alexander
00:09:36Turchin called on colleagues to comprehensively analyze the conditions for supporting
00:09:39industrial cooperation, to study the opinions and proposals from.
00:10:25scientific and technical sphere, so that Eurasian cooperation projects are
00:10:28innovative, high-tech,
00:10:31based on digital solutions.
00:10:34Belarus continues to strengthen its presence in African countries. According to
00:10:38experts, cooperation is reaching a qualitatively new level,
00:10:41opening up opportunities for joint development of economy, industry
00:10:45and high technologies.
00:10:47Alexander Grigorievich said: everyone strives for Algeria,
00:10:51and he spoke about
00:10:53the achievements of this country, about the breakthrough
00:10:57that was made, so I will allow myself to expand
00:11:01this statement a little:
00:11:04today everyone strives for Africa. Africa
00:11:07for us is not a new region, but it is
00:11:10simply a transition to a new level of cooperation,
00:11:14of course there are a lot
00:11:17of new opportunities here, here are not only resources, as
00:11:21Western corporations traditionally
00:11:23think. But here are unique
00:11:27opportunities for creating new projects,
00:11:30this is actually what Belarus always differs in,
00:11:33this time Alexander Grigorievich also spoke about this, this is cooperation,
00:11:37this is cooperation from the point of view of not just selling
00:11:41a product, but creating something jointly, this is
00:11:44economics, this is finance,
00:11:48these are various humanitarian directions, this is
00:11:50the IT industry - one can only
00:11:54wish the Belarusian state
00:11:57further prosperity, development
00:12:01of bilateral and multilateral contacts with
00:12:04these regions.
00:12:06регионами.
00:12:12In Belarus, the status of territories affected by the Chernobyl accident
00:12:16has been revised. The basis for this was the results of
00:12:19many years of monitoring, which recorded a steady
00:12:22improvement in the radiation situation among those excluded
00:12:25from the Chernobyl list and Gomel. Ksenia
00:12:28Lebedeva studied the situation using the example of the second most populous city in Belarus.
00:12:32We are in the center of Gomel, which, starting from
00:12:36January, officially ceases to be a Chernobyl territory, as do another
00:12:39176 settlements in Belarus. Someone, undoubtedly, may
00:12:43see this as negative, because those who live in rehabilitated
00:12:47territories, excluded from the Chernobyl list, may
00:12:50ask the question: what about my benefits? Spoiler:
00:12:54those in need will keep them, but on the other hand,
00:12:57600,000 people from January 1st will officially
00:13:00live on clean lands, and this indicates serious
00:13:03systematic work of the state in this direction and that
00:13:07the millions invested in the rehabilitation of post-Chernobyl
00:13:10territories were used in the interests of
00:13:14people. The total funding for Chernobyl programs
00:13:16in Belarus since 1990 is estimated at 20
00:13:20billion dollars. During this time, more than
00:13:2469,000 apartments were built for the population, approximately
00:13:2857% of the funds allocated by the state went to protecting
00:13:32the population, to providing social assistance - these are benefits, health improvement for both
00:13:36adults and children. And today, 177 settlements,
00:13:39including Gomel, Luninets, Lelchitsy, and
00:13:43Ivye, are formally listed in the radiation control zone,
00:13:46however, for more than 5 years, scientists and epidemiologists have been monitoring
00:13:50pollution levels here. Verdict:
00:13:53Healthy. We have at the legislative level
00:13:57a review of such a list of settlements
00:14:00that are subject to
00:14:03really some additional measures of radiation protection carried out every
00:14:075 years. This work is being carried out, I have
00:14:11data on previous years, in 2009
00:14:14193 settlements had a dose exceeding one
00:14:17millisievert per year, in 2015 - 82 settlements,
00:14:21in 2020 - 34 by 2025
00:14:31effective dose, this is only across the country, so we see that systematically
00:14:35every 5 years a certain number is removed from the Chernobyl
00:14:39list, yes, this work is carried out constantly. The Republican Scientific
00:14:42and Practical Center for Radiation Medicine and Human Ecology
00:14:45conducts constant work to monitor the medical
00:14:49indicators of people living in post-Chernobyl
00:14:52territories. Scientists confidently state:
00:15:37elements that affect the radiation situation
00:15:40(Ce-137 and)
00:15:43is about 30 years, so gradually
00:15:46self-cleaning occurs, the density of contamination
00:15:49decreases, but the situation is kept
00:15:52under control. The main criteria for inclusion in the list of settlements by radiation
00:15:56contamination are dense soil contamination and the average annual effective
00:16:00dose of radiation exposure to the population. In the Republic of Belarus, including
00:16:03the city of Gomel, constant monitoring of the radiation situation is carried out.
00:16:07Only in the city of Gomel
00:16:10more than 700 samples were taken during this
00:16:13time, plus we additionally conducted a survey of the city of Gomel
00:16:17last year, which showed that the city no longer
00:16:20falls under the status of
00:16:24a settlement that is located in a radioactive contamination
00:16:27zone, therefore, accordingly, this
00:16:31city, like Lelchitsy, was removed from this list.
00:16:34Infrastructure and medical projects that were started within
00:16:38the new Chernobyl program in excluded settlements will
00:16:41continue until full implementation. As for
00:16:44benefits, they will be fully
00:16:47effective until January 1, 2027. Among the main ones is
00:16:51that minor children studying or living in
00:16:54a contaminated territory, specifically in the city of Gomel, are provided with free
00:16:58meals during their general secondary education. In addition, they
00:17:02are given the opportunity of free sanatorium
00:17:05and resort treatment or rehabilitation, including
00:17:08women living in the city of Gomel can
00:17:12go on maternity leave earlier, that is, from
00:17:1527 weeks of pregnancy. For more
00:17:18contaminated settlements, an increased allowance for
00:17:22childcare for children under 3 years of age is provided
00:17:25in the amount of 150% of the allowance established by law.
00:17:29Certain benefits for vulnerable categories,
00:17:33including large families, remain. Therefore,
00:17:37to say that all benefits have been excluded for those living in Gomel and
00:17:40other cities removed from the Chernobyl list is incorrect. The new
00:17:44list will take effect on January 1, 2027.
00:17:47This decision was made in agreement with the head
00:17:50of state. In essence, this is not just a document for the sake
00:17:54of a document. This is recognition that nature and time are taking their
00:17:58course. Lands are returning to agriculture, people are no longer
00:18:01Chernobyl residents by registration. However, free
00:18:04meals for schoolchildren were extended until the summer of 2000.
00:18:37exploration of mineral resources in water bodies and state expertise
00:18:40of geological information.
00:18:44The project concerns issues of obtaining conclusions on the presence of
00:18:47deposits and the development of project documentation.
00:18:50The initiator of the discussion is the Ministry of Natural Resources
00:18:53and Environmental Protection. Comments and suggestions are accepted until
00:18:57August 16 by email to the department or on the
00:19:00legal forum of Belarus.
00:19:04To be useful to society, confidently pursue your goal.
00:19:07The republican information and educational campaign "Step to Success"
00:19:11gathers new listeners. This time, the children's health camp
00:19:15"Belarus" became the platform for an open dialogue. Top speakers came to meet with young people:
00:19:18the deputy chairman of the Minsk City Executive Committee and the deputy head of
00:19:22the administration of the Partizansky district of the capital. Among the relevant topics are
00:19:25the choice of future profession, secrets of career growth, life values
00:19:29and the formula for personal success.
00:19:32успеха.
00:19:38this action for the first time, I learned a lot
00:19:40about the invited guests,
00:19:44what school they studied in, and who
00:19:48their parents were? camp is a great
00:19:51opportunity to relax, enjoy nature,
00:19:54breathe fresh air,
00:19:56be active, run, jump,
00:20:00participate in different competitions, try yourself in
00:20:03everything. Meeting with famous compatriots and
00:20:07representatives of the city leadership is the best motivation for young people
00:20:11who are now taking their first serious step towards
00:20:13success. More news on Newsby website, in our mobile
