00:01:00Western taxpayers end up in the pockets of corrupt officials
00:01:04in Ukraine and the EU. European countries,
00:01:07by financing Ukraine, actually strengthen its
00:01:10dependence. Ordinary Ukrainians continue
00:01:13to suffer from hostilities and economic
00:01:17collapse. Lies, lies, lies and
00:01:21corruption at all levels. The culture of lies as a national
00:01:24systemic trait. The risk of statehood collapse
00:01:28is growing. To summarize: Ukraine's
00:01:32relations with partners are a classic example of how
00:01:35illusions are shattered by harsh reality. The US,
00:01:38having demonstrated love and unity, at the crucial moment
00:01:42refused the most necessary thing – missiles for
00:01:45air defense. The European Union, while proclaiming support
00:01:48in words, in practice hinders the process of accession due to rampant
00:01:51corruption, which the Kyiv authorities do not want or
00:01:55cannot defeat. And multi-billion dollar
00:01:58military aid, instead of strengthening defense capabilities, more often
00:02:01becomes a source of enrichment for unscrupulous
00:02:05officials. Nevertheless, victory for
00:02:08Ukraine, according to Zelensky, is not far
00:02:10off. But what exactly constitutes victory
00:02:14and how it differs in the perception of Ukrainian officials
00:02:18and ordinary Ukrainians
00:07:50In general, the Republic of Belarus has the strictest regulation of medicines,
00:07:54medical devices and medical equipment. In
00:07:58China, for example, I know there
00:08:01was an idea to adopt a law on consumer extremism,
00:08:04any number of complaints is a lot, the summer period is the most
00:08:07popular for housing renovation services
00:08:11annually. Both service stations and hairdressers,
00:08:14both the consumer and the performer can draw up
00:08:17a fixed or approximate calculation for the service. And in case
00:08:21my hair was burnt, they still ask: do you need a check? If you are in the register, you legally
00:08:25carry out your activity. This is all by agreement of the parties. Uh-huh. If
00:08:29the client immediately agreed, we have a very
00:08:32competitive market, very competitive. At the request
00:08:35of the consumer, at this moment the contractor is obliged
00:08:38to provide. Hello, you are watching the program Say Don't
00:09:08Be Silent. In the studio Victoria Popova and Tatyana. And today
00:09:11our guest is the head of the Department of Social Sphere and Services,
00:09:15Ministry of Antimonopoly Regulation and Trade,
00:09:19Anatoly Yurastov. Good afternoon, Anatoly Viktorovich,
00:09:23this is the favorite word of March. Everyone who is involved
00:09:26in the real economy flinched,
00:09:29because March regularly summarizes the results. In the
00:09:33field of domestic services for the population, you are a specialist, as we
00:09:37understand, according to the results.
00:09:40Hmm, this is mainly,
00:10:55of course, the non-state sector of the economy, but also
00:10:59currently a certain niche
00:11:02is occupied by individuals engaged in independent
00:11:06entrepreneurial activity. Among the trends in the development of the sphere, there is a curious
00:11:43you, is everything here legal from the point of view of March? In principle,
00:11:47everything is legal, if it attracts the consumer, why not, it doesn't
00:11:50interfere with the activity, the work
00:11:53of the master, then of course.
00:12:25Well, as I already said, these are car service services,
00:12:29more cars are being purchased, so there is
00:12:32a demand for maintenance, not necessarily repairs, just
00:12:35maintenance. Well, it's interesting, now there's a trend for buying
00:12:38new cars, right? But nevertheless, you say that
00:12:42private stations are also appearing,
00:12:45growing, that is, it cannot be said that everyone chooses
00:12:49centers for service, well,
00:12:52let's say, for any
00:12:56budget, for any conditions
00:12:58there
00:13:02is an offer, so the consumer himself chooses what is more
00:13:05convenient for him, to sit in a soft armchair at the dealer,
00:13:08to watch the work, or somewhere in
00:13:11a modest garage, well, the
00:13:14prices are certainly more pleasant in the second case
00:13:18of course they differ, this sphere is not
00:13:21regulated by law, the subject
00:13:24of business by agreement of the parties determines
00:13:27the cost of the service, of course, the subject has a norm,
00:13:31an hour, well, some additional services perhaps, like coffee,
00:13:34tea and so on, they can all take this into account when providing
00:13:37services and thereby already attract customers, so
00:13:41you can comfortably wait while your car is being
00:13:43serviced, but the consumer
00:13:47is the one who decides. But as a rule, the consumer probably
00:13:51still goes more to his master,
00:13:54yes. He trusts, that's right. Well, and another
00:13:57aspect is complaints: in the first half of this year, March
00:14:01received about 200 complaints about household services,
00:14:04is that a lot or a little, what do you think? Well,
00:14:08probably any number of complaints is a lot, so there is
00:14:12a reduction in complaints, it should be noted,
00:14:15but not always can these complaints be
00:14:18justified, in particular, many complaints are simply about
00:14:22the high cost of services, the consumer himself.
00:14:26agreed on the cost of the service with the performer,
00:14:29but then after
00:14:33the output, or
00:14:35a new cost may appear without agreement with
00:14:39the consumer, which is a violation of the rules,
00:14:42including the household rules of the consumer protection
00:14:44law, or the client looked
00:14:48somewhere else and changed his mind about the cost of this
00:14:52service, accordingly there is a complaint, why such...
00:15:25but the contract is not observed, well, because you kind of expected one
00:15:29amount, and it grew during
00:15:31it, and you kind of agree or not, but you
00:15:35are not protected, yes, you are protected. Well, there is another
00:15:38nuance in the consumer protection law, there is
00:15:42such a norm that the consumer and the performer can
00:15:46draw up a fixed or
00:15:49approximate calculation for the service. If this calculation is fixed, then
00:15:52of course, deviation from it is no longer possible, this must be stated
00:15:56in the contract, if it is fixed, yes. Well, that is,
00:15:59I would advise those who are starting renovations to sign
00:16:02such contracts with their
00:16:05people, of course.
00:16:37or there's something to fix, and the consumer
00:16:41is forced to pay, and then it turns out that it was completely unnecessary,
00:16:44yes, can a person appeal, can the consumer
00:16:48appeal for - to March for protection or
00:16:51something, yes, if the consumer believes that he
00:16:55received an improper service or was imposed some services
00:16:59that he was not obliged to do, yes, he can apply to March, but in any case
00:17:02and first of all, demand from the performer
00:17:05an expert examination. the quality of this
00:17:09service, and well,
00:17:12this issue is mostly resolved, as I
00:17:15understand, people rarely apply with this, because they simply don't know
00:17:19that it can be done, I haven't talked to anyone on
00:17:22this topic, no one means that it is possible to conclude a fixed
00:17:26contract with a team, the consumer protection law, it does not
00:17:29only apply to car services, it applies
00:17:32to all services, all services, well, name us the three most problematic
00:17:36areas, well, we talked about...
00:19:07For example, repair of sewing
00:19:11products, atelier, atelier, yes,
00:19:14that is, there are complaints about quality, there are
00:19:18about pricing, the main cost of
00:19:21the service is the materials used, which I do not understand,
00:19:25to hem trousers - it's thread,
00:19:28well, well, thread - it's the use of a machine,
00:19:32electricity manual is twice as expensive as the trousers themselves, I can't
00:19:35understand, that certainly cannot be, but if the client was satisfied, we have a very competitive
00:19:37market, very competitive, there are many repair shops,
00:19:44so the client himself must choose
00:19:47quality, the price of the service, the tariff,
00:19:51or rather the service, the location of this
00:19:54object. Since April 25, new rules have come into force, which were approved
00:19:57by the Council of Ministers' resolution of March
00:20:0023, 2006, on the rules for household services
00:20:03for consumers. The new norms affected tire fitting,
00:20:06car washes, document processing at services, and the procedure for calculating
00:20:10the cost of services. Car service owners, for example, are now obliged
00:20:14to indicate the exact cost of each part in the receipts.
00:20:17Do you note that thanks to these new rules, the number
00:20:21of contentious situations in the field of household services has decreased?
00:20:24Absolutely, yes, this has reduced the number
00:20:27of appeals,
00:20:29complaints, so to speak, and the main
00:20:32task was to make
00:20:36them more understandable...
00:21:20in this case or not, but I understand that the time
00:21:23of proving, yes, now we will touch upon the topic of consumer
00:21:27protection, there is a norm about proper
00:21:29quality, from your experience, is
00:21:33this time of proving proper quality more often shifted to
00:21:36the consumer or to the performer? To the performer,
00:21:40the consumer can prove it, but
00:21:42is not obliged, uh-huh, that is, I can appeal, yes,
00:21:46if you were refused an inadequate service.
00:21:50Well, you realized that the service is of poor quality, you contact the
00:21:53performer to conduct an examination
00:21:56at the expense of the performer, it is conducted, in case
00:22:00my hair was burnt by the hairdresser, if the hair was burnt,
00:22:03of course, the only solution to the problem is compensation
00:22:07for moral damages in court, about 100
00:22:10rubles last time I read, this is determined by the court,
00:22:13the court determines, well, it's clear, but
00:22:17here again, the burden of proof is
00:22:20on the consumer, yes, in this case, the expert examination will still be
00:22:24conducted by the performer, uh-huh, well, and further actions, well,
00:22:28here too, if suddenly the client's
00:22:31rights, the consumer's rights were violated, there is already
00:22:34a whole vertical for protection from local authorities and March
00:22:38to general consumer rights protection and
00:22:42judicial instances. Well, you know, before meeting with you, we looked
00:22:45through the cases that people from Minsk apply with
00:22:49and...
00:23:20Nevertheless, self-employed individuals, who are engaged
00:23:24in this
00:23:27activity, also provide hairdressing
00:23:29services. Does March fight in any way with gray
00:23:33masters who work without checks, or is this the purview of the tax
00:23:37inspection? This is more, of course, the tax inspection, but we can
00:23:40consider it within the framework of consumer
00:23:43protection, that is, to present to the client,
00:23:46the consumer, a check or any other document.
00:24:20consumer rights, well, forgive me, Anatoly Viktorovich, but
00:24:23I talked to a hairdresser,
00:24:27who found a job out of 10, 15, 20
00:24:30salons in Minsk, the only one where they pay
00:24:33a salary, not in
00:24:36an envelope, and checks are issued after
00:24:39each client, well, that is, it's still a rarity. I cannot,
00:24:43of course, agree with you, well, we all go to hairdressers and
00:24:47well, to those hairdressers that I go to.
00:25:21Yes, yes, just for servicing non-cash
00:25:23payments.
00:25:26And this is where the tension begins, yes, questions arise, that
00:25:30if the question is only about 3-5%,
00:25:33excuse me, I'll interrupt, but such a question should not be asked, if it is
00:25:36supposed to be issued, a check, well, please issue a check, this is a
00:25:39fact, it is asked, Viktorovich, this is to
00:25:42say that not everything is regulated as we would
00:25:45like. The law requires issuing strict reporting documents, how
00:25:49often?
00:27:32beauty salon, yes, of course, and we will talk about pricing
00:27:36for medicines for funeral services in the next
00:27:39part, but for now, let's take a short break.
00:28:00We will introduce you to the people of our country.
00:28:07Once a docent said, you know, you need to handle skin with care,
00:28:11it's not the kind of structure you should
00:28:14poke at. They have many interesting stories
00:28:17behind them. RMC Cardiology, like any
00:28:21other hospital, has the concept of state
00:28:24funding, that is, we write technical specifications, everything
00:28:27we need, if there is a technical
00:28:30specification for this, it is produced. tenders for our center receive
00:28:34yes, and they are ready to surprise again and again,
00:28:37thanks to such an opportunity
00:28:40to study, to perform such manipulations,
00:28:44students acquire not only practical
00:28:47skills, but it also provides an opportunity
00:28:50to subsequently apply this in scientific practice,
00:28:53namely, already mastering technologies, I think they can
00:28:56come up with their own, even operative
00:28:59method. Watch the project Belarusians on
00:29:02Belarus 24 TV channel.
00:29:21Say Don't Be Silent is back on air, and today our guest is the head of the Department
00:29:24of Social Sphere and Services of the Ministry of Antimonopoly Regulation and Trade,
00:29:28Anatoly Yurastov. The list of medicines has been expanded by 15 positions.
00:30:03or it's gone, that is, there are quite a lot
00:30:06of such tools through
00:30:10which you can find out the availability of goods and medicines, why it
00:30:13disappeared, will it be available in the near future, what
00:30:17concerns the expansion of the list of medicinal
00:30:19preparations that are subject to referent regulation, yes,
00:30:22it has indeed been expanded by 17 positions, it was 37,
00:30:26now it's 54, but these are international unpatented
00:30:30names, that is, this is...
00:30:33the main component of the medicine, of course, the Ministry
00:30:36of Health will tell you more about this, and
00:30:39well, at the same time, we are involved in pricing,
00:30:42so we also have this information.
00:30:45Well, Anatoly Viktorovich, again I have my subjective personal opinion,
00:30:49what about that question? I was in Vitebsk not long ago, the
00:30:53same chain of pharmacies that I use in
00:30:55Minsk, the prices are significantly, noticeably
00:30:59lower than in Minsk. How can this be explained?
00:31:03There are many factors that affect the
00:31:06cost of a medicinal product. In general, in the
00:31:09Republic of Belarus, the strictest regulation of medicinal
00:31:12products, medical devices.
00:31:46additive, this is the first thing. Secondly, why there is a discrepancy in prices by
00:31:50region, what volumes
00:31:53were purchased, what batch did
00:31:56the importer have, what was the dollar exchange rate at the moment, that is, all this
00:31:59is so interconnected, and of course, the
00:32:03main thing, many pharmacies do not
00:32:06apply the maximum trade markup so as not
00:32:10to go beyond the limits, you mean regions,
00:32:13regions, yes... well, I also cannot
00:32:17agree with you, because monthly we
00:32:20analyze internet sources, well,
00:32:23for example, we have such internet resources tabletka.by,
00:32:27103.by and other electronic platforms that
00:32:30can be monitored, to assess
00:32:33the actual state, the price range for the same
00:32:36medicinal product, we find
00:32:40isolated violations, in the first half of the year we only had
00:32:44two violations. For two pharmacies, and as we were
00:32:47told by the owners of the pharmacy, there was
00:32:51a malfunction in the computer program, the wholesale markup was exceeded
00:32:55by literally 1%, less than 1%, well,
00:32:58accordingly, a violation occurred along the entire chain to
00:33:02the culprits. I recently looked at one
00:33:05drug in Minsk in pharmacies, the price range was from
00:33:0940 to 69 rubles, that is, it is
00:33:12quite a significant difference. Unfortunately,
00:33:15yes, there can be such a difference, I will repeat
00:33:18again, it depends on the time of delivery
00:33:22of the goods here, the dollar exchange rate, the batch,
00:33:26the trade markup is twice as high, 40 and 69, that's, well, that's not twice
00:33:29as much, almost, the difference is big, but at the same time,
00:33:33believe me, there will be no violation there. It's surprising, if
00:33:36the consumer has doubts about
00:33:40the validity of the price of the medicinal product, well,
00:33:44for example, it...
00:34:15about the unreasonable price, as each, this is what concerns
00:34:19internet users, and a pensioner, who faced a situation where his
00:34:22usual medicine, there is none in the nearest pharmacies for various
00:34:25reasons, in the fourth pharmacy, for example, it is available, but at
00:34:28a higher price. Without appealing to the internet, where can
00:34:32a pensioner apply? Pharmacy reference service
00:34:35169 in the city of Minsk, state their,
00:34:38yes, so and so, problem, according
00:34:41to the information provided. I myself monitored these
00:34:45sites, including because questions
00:34:47arise, people call our hotline, ask where to find a medicinal
00:34:51product, but it's not entirely our competence, and
00:34:54we, the employees of our department,
00:34:57monitored the websites of regional executive committees, Minsk City Executive Committee,
00:35:01in particular the Minsk City Executive Committee, the
00:35:05health committee, they have information, such
00:35:07a reference service 169, by this
00:35:11phone number you can find out what medicine,
00:35:45Yes, pharmacies have never refused, I can say that from my own experience, but
00:35:49of course, before buying anything, whether it's medicine or not
00:35:53medicine, we still conduct
00:35:56market analysis, if it's something serious, and we understand
00:36:00that there can be a price difference, because
00:36:03well, in 2025 you announced a price reduction
00:36:06of 25%
00:36:08on popular drugs. When they announce price reductions, I'm even curious,
00:36:12because in my opinion, they are rising. Well, name
00:36:16specific drugs where the price actually
00:36:19decreased by 20%. Well, I will name one drug,
00:36:22a fairly well-known antibiotic
00:36:25sumamed, its price thanks to
00:36:28reference pricing was reduced by
00:36:3125%. Why did this one get
00:36:35well, for some reason I just remembered it, it's just that you
00:36:38remember the most popular well, like, I was
00:36:41prescribed it, I used it for colds, I was
00:36:45prescribed Augmentin, there was also
00:36:47a reduction, but the reduction there was not that much, not 20, I think
00:36:51it was 15%. Well, that is, there are actually
00:36:54positions, yes, that can be referenced.
00:37:27medical device, medical equipment,
00:37:30rather, and you can also see that
00:37:33same discrepancy, as with medicines, in prices. There are
00:37:37stores where, well, branded, as they are considered, medical equipment
00:37:40stores, everything will cost more there. Today,
00:37:43however, in pharmacies, it happens that
00:37:46you unexpectedly find a blood pressure monitor at a pleasant
00:37:49price, yes, and moreover, pharmacies,
00:37:53they use distance selling, online stores, where...
00:37:57and well, storage and maintenance is
00:37:59simplified, well, yes, this is a licensed activity,
00:38:03so and by the way, you are not
00:38:07going to control online trading these
00:38:10well-known platforms?
00:38:13Well, online trading, it's kind of controlled to a certain extent,
00:38:17but it's trade, it's not entirely the sphere
00:38:21of household services. Monitoring is carried out
00:38:24within the framework of considering appeals. Citizens'
00:38:28issues are also considered, letters
00:38:30are sent to the
00:38:33Ministry of Information, termination of activities
00:38:37of some websites and the same marketplaces,
00:38:40closing of cards on the territory of the Republic of Belarus, if they contradict
00:38:44the legislation of the republic, yes, I remember that the biggest
00:38:47victory, so to speak, was money for
00:38:51returning goods, yes, we stopped paying in
00:38:54Russia, for example, still.
00:38:57It worked, well, let's talk about funeral
00:39:01services - this is an area of increased social
00:39:03sensitivity. Last year, March found
00:39:07violations, I read, in
00:39:0975%
00:39:12of the objects covered by monitoring,
00:39:15well, that's a pretty serious figure, 75%, well,
00:39:19across the Republic of Belarus, yes, yes, and
00:39:22the only thing I can say is that the violations were, well, as
00:39:26a rule, due to the absence of.
00:39:58last year, yes, a government resolution was adopted, in
00:40:01which certain frameworks
00:40:04were set for the formation
00:40:07of the cost of services and the cost of individual funeral
00:40:10goods, uh-huh, this resolution
00:40:13473, well, it was
00:40:16adopted with difficulty,
00:40:20there were many comments,
00:40:23outrage from the business community.
00:42:10so additional services, such as transport, a special hall, and so on,
00:42:13how to distinguish between imposing a paid service and
00:42:16an obligatory one? There is a basic
00:42:19list of services, they are called guaranteed
00:42:23burial services, which the state can provide
00:42:26free of charge to a citizen, so for any citizen
00:42:30who finds himself in such a situation, perhaps it is necessary
00:42:34to be guided by this basic list, this basic list, he
00:42:37can ask to go to...
00:43:10regardless, but the key point is the availability
00:43:13of a consumer's statement,
00:43:16a citizen's death certificate, but once again,
00:43:19I will draw your attention, you need to carefully read the contract, everything
00:43:23you signed, word for word, the subject
00:43:27is obliged to fulfill, everything that is superfluous,
00:43:29left-handed, it does not concern you,
00:43:33and do we have unscrupulous agents
00:43:37who intercept clients?
00:43:39morgues are inflated, well, there is no such statistics, probably it's not our
00:43:43competence, it should be handled by well, probably not by the Ministry of Internal Affairs,
00:43:46but what does he violate, what is his unscrupulousness
00:43:50manifested in, maybe there is
00:43:53a violation of ethics? of the funeral department?
00:43:56Listen, when a gypsy sells
00:43:59or buys gold at a gold
00:44:02pawn shop, what is she violating? Well, she's an individual, and an individual in our country
00:44:05doesn't have the right to sell, but if she registered as a self-employed
00:44:09sole proprietor. It's not allowed
00:44:11for gold. For retail trade,
00:44:15there should be certain conditions, especially for gold. This is a licensed
00:44:18activity. Well,
00:44:21let's just say that again, it's up to
00:44:25the buyers' conscience, the consumer, that is, what
00:44:28they will eventually come to, what they will sign, what contract, what
00:44:32price tag they will choose, and so on. So here we cannot, I
00:44:36understand, it's like with those scammers, when you give it to them yourself.
00:45:10But today, the law, fortunately, allows for burial at the expense
00:45:13of the budget. I think that many segments
00:45:17of the population, including the poor, are very
00:45:20happy with this fact, because it always happens
00:45:24decently, even if the family has absolutely no
00:45:27means, death, as we know, comes suddenly. So this
00:45:31fixed state price, are you going to review it
00:45:35for the basic ritual there towards an increase or
00:45:37maybe...
00:46:40when passing through all these stages, the tariffs for such
00:46:43services can be increased, uh-huh, well, I
00:46:46had to hear complaints that well, what is 2900, you can't even buy a
00:46:50good coffin with that.
00:49:19On air again is "Don't Be Silent, Just Say It." Today our guest.
00:51:52you came into the system in March, that's almost 20
00:51:56years, right? Already. Listen, what has changed in
00:51:59pricing, in your opinion, what should be noted in general, if in
00:52:02the prospect of Belarus's development?
00:52:05Of course it's changing. In general, the approaches
00:52:09remain, despite the fact that our economy is market-based, it still has
00:52:13a social orientation, so we have a list of socially
00:52:16significant goods, and socially significant services, and
00:52:20regulation of monopolists is carried out by us. Well, in those days, at the
00:52:24beginning, perhaps there was no such regulation of monopolists. Today, if
00:52:27an economic entity occupies a dominant position in
00:52:31the goods market, it can determine actions on this...
00:55:05As for household services, the main, so to
00:55:09speak, criterion is citizens' appeals.
00:55:12Monthly, we form a consolidated plan
00:55:15of control and analytical measures
00:55:18in all areas, well, in particular, in household services,
00:55:22for example, monitoring of hairdressers, baths,
00:55:26service stations. Based on the season,
00:55:29perhaps, the number of appeals in a certain period, we choose
00:55:33a direction and conduct monitoring.
00:56:39that you, our entrepreneurs, are people who know how to negotiate, because as much as I
00:56:43have heard from those, from newly minted salon
00:56:46owners, the impression is that there is no longer what used to be, that
00:56:50control for control's sake and for the sake of
00:56:53providing you with personal services or bribes and
00:56:57so on. That is, everything here goes, well, you understand that
00:57:00a person is not knowledgeable and he did not foresee some things, and
00:57:04the person also... wants everything to be in order, right? And what
00:57:08simple advice can you give to a consumer so that this
00:57:11consumer is not deceived?
00:57:14Well, there are probably several pieces of advice here, and it...
00:57:17you need to approach - making
00:57:20a purchase, and especially if it's
00:57:24quite an expensive purchase or it's an expensive service,
00:57:27you need to approach it reasonably, study
00:57:31who provides what services, sells
00:57:34goods, look at complaints,
00:57:38of course, it wouldn't hurt to study the same rules of household service, if it's
00:57:41the provision of services, the rules of trade, if it's the sale
00:57:45of some product, that is, if...
00:58:17For example, in my own experience, if I see that my
00:58:21rights are being brazenly violated, I demand
00:58:24the book of complaints and suggestions. That's it, at the first
00:58:28demand of the consumer,
00:58:31the consumer must be presented with this
00:58:34book. I think that's how it is, well, I don't know, it's been a long time since
00:58:38I had an internal impulse to demand
00:58:42this book
00:58:42of complaints.
00:58:46You correctly noted. As of today,
00:58:49in general, the number of appeals is decreasing,
00:58:53well, at the same time, at certain times,
00:58:56yes.
00:58:58And you, Anatoly Viktorovich, knowing all these rules, what kind of consumer are you?
00:59:02An extremist, like you always know, you
00:59:05won't demand your rights? I will defend
00:59:08my rights, well, like a normal consumer within the framework
00:59:11of the law. Why did I remember extremists? Because, unfortunately,
00:59:14people are cunning.
01:00:47I think we had a very useful conversation
01:00:50today. Good luck to you in your
01:00:53activities. And we, Tatyana Shcherbina, Viktoria Popova, are saying goodbye to you for today.
01:02:37The government proposes a number of innovations in a number of
01:02:40sensitive areas for people, which is why the topic was brought
01:02:44up at the President's meeting with the Council of Ministers. One of the issues
01:02:47concerns updating the scheme for financing the supply of mineral
01:02:51fertilizers to agricultural organizations. It was also proposed to discuss
01:02:55the expediency of merging two
01:02:57state structures: the Ministry of Natural Resources
01:03:01and Environmental Protection and the State Inspectorate for the Protection
01:03:04of Animal and Plant Life. An important topic concerns
01:03:07the transformation of childcare benefits
01:03:10for children under 3 years old. On this issue, Alexander
01:03:13Lukashenka demands the development of an effective formula. At
01:03:17the state level, we need to find an effective
01:03:20formula that, firstly, will revive demographic
01:03:24processes, and secondly, will become a motivation for conscious
01:03:27motherhood and fatherhood.
01:03:30They will make them, as it's fashionable to say, a trendy trend,
01:03:33then we will preserve and multiply our population. To solve
01:03:37demographic problems, the government proposes
01:03:40to fundamentally revise state support measures,
01:03:44but before we reach a consensus on
01:03:47all these issues, we need to answer the following questions: Is there
01:03:51a guarantee that the expansion of financial incentives
01:03:55will really give
01:03:58does world experience show?
01:05:30tried different options for sanatoriums. Milk sales
01:05:34are of extra class. 10 tons here,
01:05:37and there, well, 3 tons, about
01:05:393600-4.
01:05:41This is a noticeable, noticeable increase, plus growth dynamics
01:05:45are certainly observed here every day, it will continue
01:05:48to be observed. This year we are building seven
01:05:52sanatoriums under the development program together with
01:05:55the regional executive committee, thanks to their financial support.
01:06:00All the latest equipment is included, which is available in principle in
01:06:03the country for processing and dishes for
01:06:06calves, stalls for calves, determining
01:06:10the quality of milk and colostrum collected, that is, in principle, everything
01:06:13newest in animal husbandry for examining small
01:06:17newborn calves, in principle, all this will be available in these
01:06:20sanatoriums. Trade unions of Belarus monitor
01:06:23school bazaars, under the close control of inspectors,
01:06:27the assortment, quality and origin of goods.
01:06:30Literally by touch, by tags, controllers check
01:06:33the composition. Synthetics do not pass the test, the choice should
01:06:37be not only in favor of beauty, but also safety. If
01:06:40a shortage of basic items, price gouging
01:06:44the reaction will be instantaneous. Any
01:06:47failures are promptly addressed by
01:06:51властями, чтобы исправить ситуацию до того, как
01:06:54the first bell rings. We can conclude
01:06:58that compared
01:07:00to last year, the number of goods from Belarusian
01:07:04manufacturers has increased. Currently, according to statistics,
01:07:08they account for about 80%. Retail
01:07:11outlets are improving service.
01:07:14Special areas are allocated for school supplies, school
01:07:18assortment goods, where consultants work.
01:07:22A buyer, if suddenly lost, can always
01:07:25get help and support. Lida
01:07:28was included in the route of the international
01:07:31patriotic car rally "Roads of Glory, Our History", which passes through places of military glory
01:07:35in Russia and Belarus. Its participants, mostly
01:07:38young people, will travel thousands of kilometers. I believe it's very important to maintain
01:08:13ties, especially now in a very
01:08:17difficult, historical time, when
01:08:20they are trying to rewrite historical facts,
01:08:23it is very important, firstly, to preserve
01:08:27the unity of our fraternal peoples,
01:08:30and secondly, not to forget history.
01:08:34Belarus and Tajikistan are strengthening
01:08:36transport links, from August 29, the national
01:08:39airline: Minsk. Flights will
01:08:46be operated once a week on Saturdays. The new route
01:08:49will simplify travel for citizens and open up new opportunities for
01:08:52business, tourism and humanitarian contacts between countries.
01:08:55In Braslaw region,
