00:01:18Summer of '26, Europe, +42 in
00:01:21Madrid, +40 in Paris, +38 in Berlin.
00:01:24These are not news from the desert, this is a weather forecast for the capitals of the
00:01:28richest continent on the planet. When the ground melts underfoot, productivity
00:01:31drops first and foremost. At temperatures above
00:01:3532°, the total volume of production decreases so much that
00:01:38one day of abnormal heat is comparable to half a day of a national
00:01:42strike. The European Central Bank calculated: every degree above
00:01:46normal in summer costs the eurozone economy
00:01:50GDP. Green energy has dealt a powerful blow to the economy. This
00:01:54summer, a hot calm came to the EU, almost complete
00:01:57calm. And the Euro wind turbines froze, as did
00:02:00the enterprises that took a huge amount of electricity from them. It's not just about
00:02:04the economy, at extreme temperatures, hundreds of thousands of people are at
00:02:07risk. Every heatwave brings death, especially among
00:02:10the elderly, children, and people with chronic illnesses. Looking
00:02:14at how traffic lights are melting, even rails, how people fight in stores for
00:02:17air conditioners, how logistics is collapsing. The media
00:02:20increasingly write that European architecture cannot withstand
00:02:24the heat. We are unraveling the intricacies of global world
00:02:27processes in the project "Clear Politics" on the TV channel
00:02:31Belarus24.
00:02:37Minsk, capital, but not
00:02:39bustling, modern, but preserving
00:02:43Belarus dynamic yet cozy,
00:02:46it is a city where history breathes in
00:02:50unison with the future, it amazes with its spaciousness and
00:02:54scope and monumental architecture,
00:02:58a majestic ensemble of post-war
00:03:01revival, it is the calling card
00:03:04of the city, here you can feel the breath of great
00:03:08history,
00:03:16but turn off the wide avenue and you will find yourself in
00:03:20a completely different, intimate and lyrical
00:03:23Minsk. Cozy courtyards, historical
00:03:27quarters, the whisper of the Svisloch River. And
00:03:30Minsk is also an incredibly green city, it is
00:03:34a place where you can breathe easily, everyone will find their own corner for
00:03:38relaxation. Minsk is not only
00:03:41postcard views, it is a cultural and theatrical
00:03:44capital with a vibrant life. It is a business
00:03:47and scientific hub where the IT technologies of the
00:03:51future are born.
00:03:54It is sporty, eventful, always ready
00:03:57to surprise.
00:04:07But the main treasure of Minsk is its inhabitants,
00:04:11friendly, hospitable and welcoming,
00:04:15they create that special, kind and safe
00:04:17atmosphere that makes the city truly
00:04:21homely, different, unexpected,
00:04:25attractive, come and discover
00:04:28it for yourself.
00:05:07Picturesque landscapes of the Minsk region, dense forests,
00:05:11green fields. The landscape is harmoniously complemented by
00:05:14a herd of horses, grazing in the pasture are representatives of the national
00:05:18breed, Belarusian
00:05:19draught horses.
00:05:24I was 11 years old. What happened was that we just saw horses while driving to the
00:05:27river. We stopped, ran out, asked if it was
00:05:30possible, where the stable was located, could we come, what was needed for
00:05:34this, well, and somehow we ended up at the stable, since then every
00:05:38summer, every vacation, winter,
00:05:41summer, summer, the child would leave and not
00:05:45reappear until the end of summer. Well,
00:05:47and I'm already 24, and I'm still here, and now
00:05:51I'm a horse breeder.
00:06:04Oh, if you don't love horses, then you have nothing to
00:06:06do near them, only with great love
00:06:10you can just...
00:06:42Phenomenally hardy, resistant to stress and
00:06:45diseases, a knight's move from scientists, it is unique
00:06:49because it is our breed, first of all, these are
00:06:52very good-natured horses, these are versatile
00:06:55horses, we call them a family horse, which
00:06:59will suit both grandpa to plow the garden, and dad
00:07:03to go hunting, and children to ride, and mom to go for a
00:07:07photoshoot, that is, it is for everything, it is beautiful, it is
00:07:10hardy, it is...
00:07:24Ancestors were known for their unpretentiousness and ability to adapt to natural challenges, which was undoubtedly inherited by
00:07:27representatives of the Belarusian national breed.
00:07:31The combination of beauty and physical strength are obvious advantages of the Belarusian
00:07:34Draught horse. Calm, docile, focused on
00:07:37a tandem with a human. The breed has proven itself both for
00:07:41work in harness and under saddle. Targeted selection
00:07:44of draught horses took place in the second half of the last century, they were bred
00:07:47by complex reproductive crossing with representatives of the
00:07:51Gudbrandsdal, Swedish and other breeds.
00:07:54She is 4 years old, her name is Garhiya, she is
00:07:57a bay dun, but in the Belarusian
00:08:00draught horse there is just a huge
00:08:03palette of colors. These include cream
00:08:06dun, palomino, silver
00:08:10colors, these are dun
00:08:12colors, that is, very, very many different ones,
00:08:16there are even such horses as
00:08:19Isabella,
00:08:21and this is when two cream genes meet and they enhance
00:08:25each other, then the horse becomes completely white with
00:08:29blue eyes, this kind of exclusive is sometimes
00:08:32found here, but this horse is a bay dun,
00:08:36she is very calm,
00:08:38balanced, she doesn't run away from me. person.
00:10:13At a horse farm, there are always enough worries: checking the animals'
00:10:16health, cleaning the stable, feeding them. It's a
00:10:19difficult job, and not just physically. A horse finely
00:10:23senses a person's mood, and for such a tandem
00:10:26to form, mutual trust is needed. Physically
00:10:30working with horses is quite
00:10:33difficult, but it's fitness,
00:10:36so all the girl riders are in great
00:10:38physical shape, and most of them in Belarus are
00:10:42girls, in horse breeding, in equestrian sports, it's
00:10:46mostly girls. But here, perhaps,
00:10:49moral and volitional qualities play a greater role. If you
00:10:53feel strong and powerful, then you
00:10:57will cope with a horse. If you somewhere allow
00:11:00the horse to control you, then as
00:11:03a rule, nothing good will come of it. For a horse, there must be clear,
00:11:07understandable
00:11:09discipline,
00:11:11understandable rules for her that she can follow. As soon as you explain
00:11:15to her what you want from her, with specific, simple
00:11:18words, actions, it's
00:11:21easy with them. Now they stand close to the stable, but before, their herd, well,
00:11:28it was a distant field, quite a distance
00:11:41to run, and we little girls ran in threes, drove the herd, it was fine, they are smart horses, that is, they
00:11:45know where home is, where the field is, but again, they are smart horses, if there is
00:11:49little grass, they will run to look for where the grass is tastier, let's say
00:11:52so, yes...
00:11:55Let's go home, come on, come on, come on, Lyrica,
00:11:58come on.
00:12:04Let's go. My dream
00:12:06is for our horses to become a brand
00:12:10of our country, not just our Belarusian tractors,
00:12:14but our Belarusian horses, Belorussiki, as we affectionately
00:12:18call them, and that they be
00:12:21maximally preserved and multiplied. We come to work
00:12:43here, clean them,
00:12:46saddle them, all of this needs to be done gently with the horse, because they
00:12:50feel it very much, they love affection very much, you scratch their belly,
00:12:54and she is already... she is already pleased, look, that's it,
00:12:57the horse is good, she has relaxed, so we have this
00:13:01kind of soft contact with them, we saddle them,
00:13:04we are going to take you for a walk
00:13:07through the Berezinsky Biosphere
00:13:09Reserve.
00:13:15Pull it a little, pull it, slower, and
00:13:19say walk, walk, bravo,
00:13:23walk.
00:13:26Well, these two get along well with each other and generally at
00:13:29the factory, when I came to choose horses, we just entered the herd, and I immediately thought,
00:13:32what to do?
00:13:41And from circles in the arena to two-day journeys, immerse yourself in the atmosphere
00:13:45of pristine nature on horseback, an exclusive
00:13:48offer for guests of the Berezinsky Biosphere
00:13:51Reserve, under the saddle are Belarusian Draught horses. Guests
00:13:55came to us from Egypt, yes, and they said their horses are very
00:13:59small, small, skinny, they said, oh, is
00:14:03your horse so big? I said, yes, our horses are very
00:14:06big, so they were very surprised
00:14:10why they are so big. On
00:14:13our walks, deer come out,
00:14:16roe deer come out, yes, so it's
00:14:19such a thing, people from the city are very surprised, we saw live wild
00:14:23animals, that is, well, this is very popular, plus
00:14:27our nature, if you drive through the reserve, then for these 30
00:14:30km that we cover on a two-day route,
00:14:34yes, the nature is very different, contact with a horse, which is
00:14:38also in such a beautiful place, is simply
00:14:40amazing, so come visit us, and
00:14:44if once Belarusian Draught horses were indispensable in agriculture, then
00:14:48in the age of power-intensive tractors and precision farming, they began
00:14:51to play another important role all over the world... It has been scientifically
00:14:57proven that the Berezinsky Biosphere Reserve has the cleanest
00:15:01air in Belarus. Tourists from different countries come here
00:15:05to find harmony with nature, with the singing
00:15:08of birds and the rustling of leaves.
00:15:23She is absolutely without fear. You sit on such a
00:15:27horse with great pleasure and realize
00:15:30that today you can calmly ride with
00:15:34her in the fields, in the forests, jump, run. Even just
00:15:38walk. These are the animals with
00:15:41whom you can have a certain tandem, an
00:15:44exchange of emotions. They give you their
00:15:47emotion, and you give them yours. Evgenia is responsible
00:15:50for animal care and horse tours. She says that
00:15:54in childhood, the big dream of confidently staying in the saddle seemed
00:15:57unattainable. She moved to the Belarusian hinterland with her family
00:16:01from Minsk, and now every day of her life includes
00:16:04horses. In my childhood, there were no horses
00:16:08in fact, because I'm from Minsk, right? There were horses
00:16:12in "Garde-Marines," "The Three Musketeers." When I
00:16:16watched these films, I just couldn't tear myself away from the screen, and I had
00:16:19a wooden horse up to my knee. I led it along the
00:16:23asphalt, you know, through the city, that
00:16:25horse. And one day, we were driving
00:16:29with my mother very early, probably
00:16:32for the train very early, there was no such communication yet, it was just starting to
00:16:36run, yes... You hear clop-clop,
00:16:39clop-clop, clop-clop, I get goosebumps,
00:16:42I turn around, and there on a kibitka on
00:16:45a black raven horse, that's it, you won't believe it, it's still
00:16:49cloppin'. Well, by the way, as my good friend Natalia says,
00:16:52maybe we were also horses in a past life, and
00:16:56this state of ours, this magnetic attraction,
00:16:59is probably connected with that. Evgenia considers the first
00:17:02acquaintance of human and horse particularly important. The good
00:17:06nature and fundamental calmness of the Belarusian Draught horse
00:17:09allows the rider to gain riding experience without unnecessary stress,
00:17:13and after a couple of lessons, a feeling of
00:17:16flight is guaranteed. When I ride a horse, I grow
00:17:19wings, I really feel that I can fly, that I
00:17:23can flutter like a butterfly with
00:17:25wings. They somehow give
00:17:29such a feeling that anything is possible with them. Our
00:17:32Draught horse is the pride of the country, the most numerous breed in
00:17:36Belarus in rural areas.
00:18:07a new factory line of rhythm in the Russian heavy draught
00:18:10breed, this work has begun, but we must finish it, and I
00:18:14hope that we will be heard and supported not
00:18:18only by the Ministry of Agriculture, but also by other parties interested in
00:18:22our work. Representatives of various horse breeds are found
00:18:25in manors, equestrian clubs, and farms. They differ in
00:18:28purpose, temperament, and endurance. For
00:18:32example, thanks to Reef, future veterinarians get a complete
00:18:36understanding of the profession. The students' favorite and
00:18:39a legend of the Vitebsk Academy of Veterinary
00:18:42Medicine.
00:18:45Daria, a future veterinarian, has been involved in equestrian sports since she was 9 years old. When it came
00:18:49time to choose a profession, she relied on her existing
00:18:52experience working with animals. She also found an approach to
00:18:55the wayward Reef. At the beginning of the journey, many considered
00:18:58this unrealistic. There is a certain base,
00:19:02but with Reef at this
00:19:05moment, everything was somehow new. I had to learn
00:19:08everything anew, both riding in the saddle and leading,
00:19:12and generally understanding that
00:19:14there are actually different horses, as
00:19:18different as possible. He learned to be near a person,
00:19:21to keep a distance near a person. He also
00:19:24learned several gaits and how
00:19:27training is generally conducted. Reef learned several tricks,
00:19:31bowing, and he can give his legs, but he was giving his legs
00:19:35for a long time, that is, even before me. You definitely need to understand the
00:19:38animal, but it's not just understanding the animal itself, it's
00:19:42understanding where everything is
00:19:43on it, and how it can behave.
00:19:47The educational scientific center in the northern region
00:19:51of Belarus, for over 100 years, the Vitebsk Academy of Veterinary Medicine
00:19:55has been training personnel for agriculture. Students come from different
00:19:58countries, it is important that foreign students return home as
00:20:01highly qualified specialists, the current needs of the agro-industrial
00:20:05complex are carefully studied. For foreign
00:20:08students, especially from Central Asia, we make efforts to train them
00:20:12specifically in cattle, horses, and they also
00:20:16have mules, llamas, camels, goats, and sheep.
00:20:19A horse in Belarus probably doesn't really differ from a horse in
00:20:23Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, or any other
00:20:26country, including other animals, so the specifics of
00:20:29training are basically the same for all countries, so we cooperate
00:20:33with them, we unite, yes, textbooks like these are published for that...
00:20:50unites a love for animals. Upon returning to their homeland,
00:20:53each person will apply the knowledge gained in Belarus for
00:20:57good. We practice with animals a lot, this
00:21:01stays in memory quickly. Horse
00:21:04breeding is very developed in our country. And we
00:21:07mainly have many enthusiasts
00:21:10who bring very expensive breeds. And
00:21:14they race, they take care. This, so to speak,
00:21:17is not a cheap pleasure.
00:21:21Well, there are also nuances there, maybe drafts, maybe because of
00:21:25the feed, they can get sick, no one is insured against anything, and
00:21:28specialists are needed, so many advise
00:21:32coming here, learning,
00:21:34studying everything and working at home,
00:21:37helping. And in our country, these are horses, Akhal-Teke horses,
00:21:41a particularly reverent attitude, because of this, in the
00:21:45Academy of Veterinary Medicine, I am more
00:21:48interested in treatment.
00:21:50They are beautiful, racehorses are fast, and they
00:21:54have such silky hair,
00:21:57it shines very
00:21:58beautifully.
00:22:05The ideal symbiosis of comfortable infrastructure and natural
00:22:08beauty, just a few kilometers from Minsk, has its
00:22:12own measured rhythm. For Belarusians, the agricultural town of Ratomka has long
00:22:15been associated with horses. It is here that the republican
00:22:19center for Olympic training in equestrian sports and
00:22:22horse breeding is located.
00:22:27Its history began with an equestrian sports school. In
00:22:301968, in the village of Ratomka, a horse
00:22:33farm named after Hero of the Soviet Union, Lev Dovator, was organized.
00:22:37They acquired horses whose pedigrees traced back to elite
00:22:40lines of the famous German stud farm. The decision to focus
00:22:44on the Trakehner breed was made for several reasons. In the late
00:22:47sixties, the breed was considered one of the best for classical equestrian
00:22:51sports, and it was also formed in climatic
00:22:54conditions similar to Belarusian ones, which was clearly
00:22:57a significant advantage. Ratomka is
00:23:01the foundation, one might say, of equestrian sports in our
00:23:03country, it is the history of equestrian sports. Equestrian
00:23:07sport is specific, it is unique, unique in that in
00:23:11no other sport is there a second
00:23:14athlete, our second athlete is an animal,
00:23:18the result of a sports pair depends.
00:24:20the right to care for their horses in such
00:24:23wonderful conditions. Horses are in demand. Now Belarusian scientists
00:24:27are working on import substitution to
00:24:30always be on top. Breeding a new variety is a
00:24:33lengthy process. The plans include obtaining a specialized type of
00:24:36Belarusian sport horse. The goal of our task
00:24:39was to develop zootechnical rules for evaluating
00:24:42these horses, which would specialize in a specific
00:24:46discipline. In the twenty-fourth year, we developed
00:24:49a methodology for forming projected genotypes, which we embedded in
00:24:52the horse standard, that is, what criteria it should meet, what qualities
00:24:56it should have. Our next plans include, we want
00:24:59to lay down a new line of Bergam, this is an outstanding
00:25:03stallion who is currently producing in the Republican Center for
00:25:06Olympic Training in Equestrian Sports and Horse Breeding. From him
00:25:10we have already obtained successful offspring who are
00:25:13competing in Show Jumping and Eventing, so this will be
00:25:16a show jumping line, even stronger and more enduring, but...
00:25:20An athlete cannot be versatile, scientists note.
00:25:23The country has a breeding base for breeding its own riding breeds
00:25:27of horses. The Belarusian sport horse must embody all the
00:25:30best qualities to show results. We get
00:25:34a foal, only at 2 and a half years old can we assess its preliminary
00:25:37potential at factory tests. We started working with the selected
00:25:40livestock, and soon we will approve the line. In order
00:25:44to approve a specialized type, there must be two
00:25:47lines, so we plan one.
00:26:21Grace and Eldorado at the Slavic Bazaar in Vitebsk, and here they
00:26:25are truly stars. The patrol attracts attention from afar,
00:26:28they arrived in the northern region of Belarus from Lida. For a long time, in the
00:26:32region, there was an equestrian squad. Mounted police were
00:26:35revived in the city a few years ago. The routes pass through
00:26:39tourist places. This allows not only to closely monitor
00:26:43public order, but also creates a tourist
00:26:46brand. Of course, it's interesting,
00:26:49unusual, people come up, take pictures, try in every possible
00:26:52way to interact with the animals. Victoria Missyus
00:26:55has been in the saddle since she was 8 years old. Her godfather brought her to equestrian sports, so it was
00:26:59not difficult for her to find an approach to horses.
00:29:10We talk about the most interesting things from the world
00:29:13of science. This activity is equally useful at
00:29:17any age, for a child,
00:29:19an elderly person. It treats the back, trains the lungs,
00:29:23relieves stress, and is rightly considered one of the safest
00:29:26types of cardio training. As you may have already guessed,
00:29:30today we will talk about...
00:29:40We ask the most exciting questions and look for answers to them, but as I understand it, designing an attraction is
00:29:44not just drawing a beautiful
00:29:47track, but it requires certain calculations, and everything
00:29:50starts with them, right? Tell me, the calculations
00:29:53of attractions are based, first of all, on the technical specification,
00:29:57where the customer determines what he
00:30:01needs, look in...
00:33:10A view from Minsk on what is happening in the world, the most notable event.
00:33:21Asia, Africa, well, a very diverse picture. And everywhere we
00:33:24are looking for that component where our capabilities coincide with
00:33:28interests, and interest from
00:33:31our partners. They want to cooperate with us because we are good, easily
00:33:34predictable, we are consistent, we are honest in
00:33:37dialogue. The visit of the Arab parliament is very important for our country,
00:33:41Belarus wants to interact and be friends.
00:34:01Its main task is to support businesses
00:34:03entering the market, finding reliable partners and developing investment
00:34:07cooperation. 24 Belarusian enterprises received the government's award
00:34:11for achievements in the field of quality. Manufacturers
00:34:15are expanding their presence in the Georgian market. The tenth store of one of the
00:34:18Belmart retail chains opened in Tbilisi.
00:34:21The head of Belarus, Maxim Rozhenkov, visited Mozambique.
