the third year filled them with specifics and will definitely become a turning point in belarus’ work in africa. zimbabwe and equatorial guinea no longer seem so exotic today. many ministers and specialists have recently visited guinea twice, preparing the ground for negotiations at the highest level. by the way, the soil in the literal sense. work in the agricultural sector is one of the areas of cooperation, although a dozen and a half were identified in the road map. if we touch on the african continent. i just want to warn everyone, i invited the vice-president, even though they and were not immersed in the details of these preparatory visits of our specialists, ministers, but they know this, i invited you so that you would take special control of the results of these business trips, from the equatorial guineas we worked in a new way, everything went under my strictest control , the minister of foreign affairs visited there, established contacts with this state, then specialists.

the ministers also worked, on the eve of my visit, having visited this country, they developed the main directions, in my opinion there are 15 of our work with the equatorial and 74 specific projects that we agreed to implement together with our friends in equatorial guinea and they must be implemented, i simply categorically insist on this and warn. you have to take it.

it won’t work out carelessly, this is a signal to muddy up the agreements or work on them, everyone with the inhabitants of the african continent are ready to share competencies and technologies, they are in african countries, which today are increasingly thinking about economic independence, which is impossible, by the way, concerns are most pressing there, how to feed people you can’t even spread petrodollars on bread, how to build houses, how to develop medicine, we need help in matters that from...

we started cooperating with them, we offered , first of all, agricultural technology, gomselmash supplied combines, tractors were supplied, this year information was received , that for the first time zimbabwe provided themselves with a harvest, that is, for the first time they did not have hunger and did not need to buy food abroad, that is, this is due to the fact that, well, only in agriculture we provided such assistance, so the neighboring state sees this.

as for the people's republic of china, nikolai gennadievich snopkov bears personal responsibility. he attended the negotiations along with the foreign minister .

side and provide goods, technological, food, logistics capabilities that another country needs, it should be noted that belarus, due to the fact that the geopolitical situation has worsened and made trade with western europe impossible, has lost part of its markets, and china has replaced european markets with its own markets, and this is exactly what it says that both sides are... in the united arab emirates, in a family format. the uae is the main trade leader in such a home and partner in belarus among the arab states of the gulf. it is clear that the emirates are working with us

on individual issues, there is no inhibition anywhere, no one is offended, but we also agreed that perhaps they have a very strong interest, we can. work together in africa, there is a big piece of work for them for the emirates, bearing in mind their influence in the world and the financial resources that they have, so if they will be interested in working on certain issues, we are ready to involve them, everything is possible if there is trust, the emirates and belarus can boast of this and appreciate it, because the last climate summit showed that trust is in short supply in the world...

the prospects are very good, africa is one of the most promising areas, the president is encouraging everyone to work intensively at a high pace and with the same productivity. as the president noted, there are no problems in cooperation with china; this is our strategic partner with whom we we have cooperated, we are cooperating and we will continue to cooperate. there is great mutual interest with the united arab emirates, not only in a bilateral format, but also as outlined by the head of state.

the political road has been paved by the president, now the line is to fill the economic partnership, it’s up to the government, to work without regard to the exotic, distance, difficulties, everything is like in life, the path will be mastered. natalya breus, alexey martinenok, bogdan petrashko, alexander oleshko, tv news agency. the kgb made several loud statements today. in poland they are preparing seven groups to carry out terrorist attacks in

our country and to seize objects in belarus. this was stated by the chairman of the state security committee, ivan tertel, in a conversation with journalists. according to him, not only aggressive plans for implementing a force scenario in our country are known, but also the names of the polish special services employees who supervise the activities of militants. on the territory of poland - there are currently seven so-called harukrs who are preparing for terrorist attacks and the seizure of objects on belarusian territory, the most such aggressive haruga is in bialystok, she trains at cardinal wyszynski street, building 6a, she is headed or led by asadullaev, this is our former citizen who ran away, once was, studied at the military academy, he is hiding. behind the pseudonym, the nobleman is one of the most aggressive structures, and we know employees

of the polish special services, delegations from the internal security agency, who seem to supervise their activities, but we believe that this is unacceptable, we do not use such practices and do not think that this is good , therefore, ukrainian polish and baltic colleagues must ensure that this weapon does not turn against them. the kgb chairman also spoke about the plans. radicals who fled abroad attempt to destabilize the situation in belarus on a single voting day on february 25. at the same time , their curators themselves note that this is a rather slim chance. the main efforts of the fugitives, as well as the forces supporting them, will be focused on the presidential elections in 2025. however, they still need to solve the problem of new personnel. old yourself completely defamed, including from the point of view.

between our states, france, belarus, the usa, this is the most painful point for them, they are currently having serious disputes there. the main thing, of course, is the twenty-fifth year, everything is concentrated , attention to all aspects, it will, of course, not be easy for us, we know about it, but we are ready for it, i want to assure our citizens that the president personally has his finger on the pulse, he delves into all situations in detail, knows thanks to, among other things. all the nuances and

minsk is in charge to participate in the meeting of heads of authorities process, everything will be calm. and today , a russian delegation headed by the director of the foreign intelligence service sergei naryshkin arrived in the safety and security of the cis intelligence services. let me remind you that a large-scale meeting will take place tomorrow. well, as sergei naryshkin noted today, at the opening of the exhibition. ordinary nazism in the house of moscow in minsk, washington and other western regimes purposefully contributed to the creation of a hotbed of neo-nazism in ukraine. as a result, us actions pose a threat not only to belarus and russia, but also to europe, as well as to the whole world. the exhibition exposition calls on the entire civilized part of humanity to fight against nazism and those who are trying to abolish it ; it clearly demonstrates the crimes of ukrainian neo-nazis and tragedies.

the exhibition is such a real alarm bell, calling on the civilized part of humanity to fight evil, it is a reminder of the terrible tragedy that continued in the donbass and... new russia for years, and it is a reminder that the crimes of the ukrainian punitive forces will not be forgotten, but they themselves... will be put on trial. today the west does not choose expressions in attempts to denigrate belarus and russia, even when allies are joining humanitarian projects. help has been sent to the affected regions more than once; in belarus, thanks to the union state project, more than 2.0 children from

the affected regions have already been able to take a break from the war. the reaction of the west only confirms that nazism is alive and not hidden in the pages. bygone history. let me remind you that the exposition of the exhibition is dedicated to the tragedy of the civilian population of donbass and the crimes of ukrainian neo-nazis. the project started with an exposition, which opened in 2022 at the victory museum in moscow. having been continued in rostov, on the don, nalchik, novosibirsk, vladivostok and other cities. now residents of belarus can also get acquainted with the mobile exhibition. since 2014, more than five have died in donbass. thousand people , including 138 children, almost 10,000 civilians were injured, 444 of them children, and millions of families were forced to leave their homes to flee, but this does not stop the puppet kiev regime, zelensky again went overseas, the ukrainian dictator is greeted without

fanfare and without a red carpet, all that was achieved from the owner’s promise to allocate. 200 million dollars a wish not to lose hope, and biden is no longer ready to support kiev as much as necessary, he emphasized that the united states will help as long as there is an opportunity, because how he behaved in the company of the ukrainian guest, one can judge the true attitude towards the beggar, during during zelensky’s speech, biden blew his nose the entire time; when asked by a journalist about a possible victory for kiev, he only laughed nervously.

friendly and harmful to bilateral relations, poland is succeeding in erasing the historical memory; 468 monuments to soviet soldiers out of 561 have already been demolished there . to date, more than 3,000 monuments to soviet liberators have been dismantled in europe. let me remind you how in riga the destruction of the memorial

to soviet soldiers, which stood there for almost 40 years, was broadcast live on a local tv channel. architectural symbols associated with the history of ukrainian jews and the holocaust mock soviet heritage memorials. will it come understanding that a hysterical rejection of one’s history is a war against one’s own people, which has been going on in ukraine for 9 years. well, with those who disagree with the pro-american nazi

course, the conversation is short. for example, in latvia they will fire people. the local sejm commission adopted amendments to the law. in public administration , now, if a person has publicly expressed his opinion, but it goes against the pro-american ideas of the latvian authorities, he will immediately be shown the door, goodbye according to the new democratic law, according to the european ones, they begin to tighten the screws and moldovan dictator sandu, if any region does not want to follow a pro-european, well , read pro-american course, will be deprived of state subsidies, a protege of sandu’s states.

this is, by the way, how the destruction of ukraine by the states began, with deception and lies about european integration. prospects for the development of trade and economic relations, strengthening inter-parliamentary relations. relations with turkey were discussed during the meeting by the chairman of the house of representatives vladimir andreichenko and the turkish ambassador to belarus. our countries have long-standing friendly relations, they are especially strengthened when turkey managed to defend its status as a neutral country, not involved in global conflicts, and today they provide us with access to world markets, giving us access to foreign capital and investments. in this sense, the friendliness of official ankara’s position cannot be overestimated.

readiness to contribute in every possible way to the steady reduction of international tension. belarus and vietnam continue to deepen cooperation in the field of security. a belarusian delegation led by secretary of state for security. alexander volfoevich has already held meetings with the prime minister of vietnam, as well as the minister of public security. an exchange of views took place on issues of international and regional security, and the confrontation with new challenges was discussed. and threats, as well as interaction in the political and economic spheres. as noted, in recent years, joint work in the field of security has acquired a constructive character,

the level and content of mutual visits has increased, as evidenced by the number signed and implemented documents. both sides are also unanimous in their opinion that today in the international arena it is necessary to talk about peace, it is necessary to resist the hybrid influence on countries. belarus is managing to cope with the challenges of our time through common efforts, this was noted by the minister of foreign affairs of our country at the opening of a meeting of the advisory council on the affairs of belarusians abroad. sergei oleinik also emphasized that belarus appreciates the positive contribution of belarusians abroad in conveying truthful information about our country. the belarusian diaspora very clearly represents the belarusian state, belarusian culture, belarusian history, regardless of the country where it is located.

representatives of the diaspora from different parts of the world gathered, including from the countries of the european union and the usa. belarusians in the states have their own opinion about illegal sanctions against our country. we understand that sanctions, in general , are mostly people who suffer, ordinary people, we try, but unfortunately, they don’t always listen to our voices, in general, if there was an opportunity, then everything would be fine differently, but... again, you have to hope for the best, somehow i always think, do what you need to do, what will happen. we are also coping with sanctions by increasing

production cooperation with russian enterprises. already more than 8.00 companies have mutual supplies of raw materials, materials and components. we cooperate in industry and agriculture, petrochemicals in the service sector, we create joint projects that people need, and what... that brings belarus and the ulyanovsk region together is our next material. the very center of the northern volga region with the largest transport corridors and strategic ones. authorities for the entire russian market, legendary loaves are produced here and the il-76 is assembled. ulyanovsk rightfully bears the title of the aviation capital of russia. the production

capacity of aviasar allows us to produce. three large aviation enterprises in belarus are closely involved in the production of components, assembly units and parts for aircraft. we visited your aviation factories, looked at what we can offer as part of the operation, and here it should be noted that this is already this year. enterprise of the republic of belarus began production of more than 215 items of parts for aircraft-building aviation enterprises in the ulyanovsk region, this cooperation has already reached such an interstate level. cooperation in mechanical engineering has grown from the level of purely trade relations and the joint assembly of wheeled and trailed equipment based on maza vehicles is just around the corner. this industry

is key in the industry of the ulyanovsk region. role at the local car dealership they produce the famous loaves, these cars have our power steering, the new ones patriots, fog lights , chassis components, in 2022 belarusians sold components worth 600 million russian rubles, absolutely the entire line is open for belarus, i can say that there is supply for all models, the volumes are different, it should also be noted that we also have government orders ...we are working on it and don’t have it, it’s an emergency medical vehicle, we also show our options that are successfully used in russia by the ministry of internal affairs. today belarusian tires are being tested on the uaz; they also plan to replace the worn-out tires. import positions, localization of production , the task is the same for the markets of belarus and russia, it is doable, manufacturers of children's toys assure, this is a joint belarusian-russian enterprise in dimitrovgrad, has been operating since 2019,

the opening was difficult. period, pandemic, sanctions, from the very beginning we had to look for new delivery logistics without loss of quality. during the hot period, production volume reaches 200,000 toys per month, the automated process borders on manual labor, a full production cycle has been organized here based on technological maps developed in belarus. first we put the rims on the wheels, then we put them on the ooski, then we put them on, then we punch them on the machine. where is the car going?

using all known nuclear medicine methods to treat cancer patients. treatment here is also available for belarusians, this opportunity appeared several years ago, they started with two dozen patients, it is expected that this figure could soon grow to 100. the success of treatment in three components: clinical, educational , scientific in laboratories, including research on government orders; in the last 2 years alone, two important drugs have been replaced by imports. radiochloride and lucetium 177. they treat inoperable tumors, this project of the union state will continue next year . yesterday confirmation came, doctors say, the same project that clearly shows why we are getting even closer, even though sometimes it seems that there is nowhere closer. yulia alferova, vitaly selyavka, tv news agency. and of course, it is worth noting

that belarusian products are now known and trusted on all continents. adhering to high standards in production and personnel training is our clear position, and this is our brand. quality is the key to our competitiveness in world markets. today, immediately after the panorama, guests of the talk show economic environment will discuss the coming year, the year of quality.

and no, therefore, of course, conquering markets, both your own, and not giving them to foreign manufacturers, or external ones, is possible only with the quality of products, which is now being developed. program that will describe in detail each ministry, each the ministry will tell you in what area and where specifically they will be engaged in improving the quality of this or that type of work or service; one of the tasks of science today is to obtain those results, to work out those criteria that will be included in new ones today or tomorrow standards, new quality requirements, at each enterprise we have developed a quality management system. which combines the work of all departments of the enterprise, in addition, suppliers are also involved there, consumers, too, as the language of the standard says, we must satisfy everyone with the quality of our products. the economic

environment is a program in which i talk in simple language about complex economic processes in the country and beyond its borders, watch today after the panorama. well, the main political event at the start of the new year 2024 will be a single voting day, it is scheduled for february 25. every young voter who takes part in voting for the first time will receive a copy of the constitution of belarus as a gift. chairman of the central berkom igor korpenko held a meeting with youth activists in minsk. awareness-raising activities, where a special place is occupied by meetings with young people, are a new measure in the preparation and conduct of the election campaign, which is enshrined in

the electoral code. a new body created under the central election commission, the youth council, is also involved in this work. it consists of future lawyers, students of belarusian universities who study constitutional and electoral law and are ready to apply it. youth from the age of 18 have the right to vote, secondly, youth from the age of 18 can to stand as candidates for deputies of local councils, from the age of 21 for deputies of the house of representatives, such

events, in my opinion, actualize the topic of the election campaign and the active participation of young people in the manifestation of civic position during this campaign. let me note that the formation of territorial and district election commissions has been completed. all regional and minsk city have already held orientation meetings, the leadership team, chairmen, deputy secretaries have been elected. in the near future, the election commission will organize a center for them training seminar. no later than january 10 , voting stations will be organized and precinct election commissions will be formed by january 25. an observer mission from the cis will work at the parliamentary elections in our country; the executive committee is already making preparations.

we'll handle it. current problems of the cis. the heads of government will discuss it soon. their meeting will take place in moscow with an emphasis on enhancing cultural and humanitarian cooperation. as the cis secretary general emphasized. culture

unites and it is a proven formula. in in particular, it is expected that next year an international russian language organization will appear in the commonwealth. preparations for its creation are already underway. on the eve of the election campaign in belarus , participants in the republican scientific and practical conference spoke about the legal aspects of the sovereignty of our country and the role of the media in the pre-election period. as the chairman noted. he just doesn’t care, the other day he made a statement

that he was very concerned about the election process in the republic of belarus, absolutely double standards, we we have never been against having excellent relations with the west and the east, but the west poses the question in a completely different way, either we are with them, or we are their enemy, unfortunately , of course, young people need to explain a lot of things, this is our job, the work of scientists, journalists, analysts, this work is being carried out, unfortunately... by the russian federation as a collective obscurity, this is one point. the next point is that we have reached a qualitatively new level of party building. we have four political parties. and the third aspect is that we all we are on the eve of such a large-scale election campaign, which will also take place according to new rules. based on the results of the republican conference , additional approaches to solving current problems of social policy, as well as ideology, are being developed. of our state, the priority

areas of budget policy next year remain the social sphere, increasing the well-being of citizens by increasing wages, and supporting the national economy. today the council of the republic approved the republican budget 2024. in particular, the expenses include funds for... payment of family capital - 383 million rubles. financing of housing construction with state support - 1.7 billion. republican budget revenues next year are planned in the amount of almost 40 billion, the consolidated budget - 67.5 billion rubles. expenses in the amount of 44.6 billion consolidated budget - 72.6 billion rubles.

we are talking about activities such as wholesale, retail trade and cargo transportation. a tax is also being introduced on luxury cars less than 3 years old and costing more than 100 thousand. dollars. if previously vehicle owners paid 200 rubles a year, now the tax amount will be 2,000. other types of taxes will also change for some categories. there is an indexation of land and environmental taxes on average. by 107.5%, the income tax rate changes from 13% to

25%, for excess income, so to speak, if the income of citizens per year is more than 200,000 rubles. then on amounts exceeding 200,000 an income tax of 25% will be paid. in the same way , income tax is increased for organizations that receive more than 25 million rubles. in year. land 37% of all farmland, this is almost 3 million hectares, most of it in the bres, vitebsk, gomel and minsk regions. these bills significantly expand the concept of cultural and technical work, that is. these are lands that

can be put into circulation at the least cost, they were somehow not regulated by law before, now we are expanding this issue, it will be possible to get about 100,000, this task was set by the head of state per year, the introduction of additional land turnover, this additional feed, this is grain, this is livestock products, this is the currency that comes into the country, everything is on the agenda of the council meeting. the republic included 18 issues, including the fight against terrorism and corruption, the activities of religious organizations, and an agreement on free trade in services in the cis was ratified. well, as you could see above, belarus will continue to support large families, allocating impressive budget amounts for family capital. every year mothers and heroines are among those awarded, this year the order of mother 51 residents of brez, grodno and mogilev regions were awarded.

our president signed the decree today. workers in various fields of activity, including representatives, were awarded for raising five or more children. industrial and agro-industrial enterprises, organizations in the construction industry, social sphere, educational institutions, healthcare and the armed forces. the state’s concern is constant attention to our children; perhaps the most magical sincere action will start this friday in a new format. guests are welcome in belovezhskaya pushcha, in the residence of father frost. let me remind you that the republican marathon of good deeds started more than 20 years ago directly on the initiative of the head of state. last year alone, belarusians collected more than 3 million rubles. the country's top officials, heads of state organizations, public associations, and representatives of 150 republican organizations visited boarding schools, orphanages, hospitals, and rehabilitation centers.

children from large and low-income families are also not ignored. disabled children and those who have achieved success in studies and sports. thus, more than a million children receive congratulation gifts, this year they are not going to slow down, children from all regions of the country are invited to the santa claus holiday, in the format of a teleconference, communication with the brist region, there will also be children from different cities, and the capital’s teleconference will be held in minsk state palace of children and youth. the holiday promotion will last until january 15. new year's holidays, christmas trees, matinees, concerts, festivals.

in regional centers, at the level of executive committee chairmen, heads of administration in the cities of our country. among the new year's and warm marathons for the older generation, on january 3, a republican event starts in the country with all my heart. it was held for the first time this year, also on the initiative of our president. until january 15 , veterans of the great patriotic war, labor, long-livers, and lonely elderly people will be given their attention. birthday people whose birthdays will fall during the new year holidays. by the way, during these the relay race of new year's mood has already passed for days; anyone can help decorate the room with garlands or decorate the christmas tree. winter is a time not only for new year's miracles of wish fulfillment, but also a time for

harvesting and pine cones. forestry enterprises in the north of the country have begun preparing the basis for the future forest. harvest. manages the forest seed center in deep, one of four in the country, where the seeds are processed and prepared for storage. olga moslovskaya studied this entire chain. the cone is standard, at least 5 cm. it must be collected closed so that it is not sick. workers of the polotsk forestry enterprise spend the entire holy day in the forest. the harvest of cones has arrived. the collection work is not easy, at height. manually in any weather. this year, of course, it is not very convenient to collect, as you can see, there is a lot of snow, first you need to shake the tree, and then collect it. we insulate ourselves as best we can, we don’t stand, but we move, which means it’s warm. now the collection is taking place on scots pine plantations; you won’t immediately recognize

the ship’s pine in the lush, spreading tree. such a crown is formed by regular haircuts there is no other way to get to the cones on purpose. all this is to collect a cone with an improved genetic code, so to speak, well , because in the forest it is still a forest cone, on plantations it is an improved, selective one, they were collected at one time from improved trees from plus plantings, as for care, the work is also the same the same as in the forest, that is, while the trees are small, it is necessary to carry out mowing of the grass, and disking, and various fertilizing, the plantations last... for three decades, then new ones are planted in their place plantings. the cones are barely harvested every year, but with the main ones, it takes twice as long to ripen. cones are delivered from the forest. to the center for processing forest seed raw materials, where they are sorted, cleaned, dried and the seeds are extracted, which in turn are sent for storage.

one of the four forest seed centers in the country operates in deep, with the first kilograms of the new harvest on the conveyor belt. it is important not to allow damaged buds to be processed. we select them from the face that remain on the cones; we remove the wormy and damaged cones. material, and this is not only the usual spruce pine, there is siberian cedar, karelian birch, fir, larch, these crops

are in demand among landscape designers. olga moslovskaya, mikhail khristoforov, television news agency. well, that 's all for me.

now, if you look at the sectors of the economy, which areas for investment are the most promising today in the context of our country, in our experience, recently the top three look like this, this is food industrial agriculture, i would combine this by... in general with this slogan , food security, uh , second place, perhaps, is pharmaceuticals, mm, well , third place is mining, investments in everything related to this, although it is possible, over the last six months, it has been replaced by logistics and trade, well, now we we talked about classic investments, startups, of course, this is always a high-tech business, uh, different industries, we will present... like what is called fintech, that is, technologies in the field of finance, very current technologies in the modern field

healthcare, there are startups related to social projects, family development, very interesting ideas are embedded in these startups, well, all that unites them is that each startup has some potential for such global scaling, that is , potential, well, what is called the language of venture investors is unicorn. you say russia is now number one in terms of the number of investments, including as a trading partner, today russia is number one, but if you look at the investment basket, who else is putting money into the development of our countries, or only russia , more and more, in these turbulent times we are no longer working with anyone, well, of course russia takes up more than half of our investments and this share has been growing recently, in second place...

i would also mention a country like pakistan very much it became the opening of 2022 this year we already have two registrations of a company from pakistan a little. unexpectedly, although anyone who knows well, here is the east, understands that a country with 200 million people for a minute is one and a half times more than russia, this is in principle, a very high level for investment, even if the economy is still at a below-average income level, but in a large country there are more rich people, according to statistics, the growth

of investments in belarus last year was that... 37 times, if you look at the overall investment projects, which of them are the most successful, the largest, the most profitable , what are you proud of, well, in the context of russian investments, i would start with the omscarbon project, this is a large manufacturing enterprise in the city of mogilev, an enterprise that produces a product that is very important for belarus, the technical carbon that our giant belshina consumes, in general,

there will be a car of belarusian production, made by belarusians, and people choose it not because there is no choice, but because it is the best choice, we really have received advanced technologies in mechanical engineering, an advanced product of the mechanical engineering of the automotive industry, the passenger car industry, and this is great, and the project, i would call it a model in all respects, this project is export-oriented, because the automotive industry is within the framework of the belarusian market , it simply does not have economic feasibility, this project is

a strategic project, the potential of which will be revealed not even in years, but decades, on the air sports day, isman studio, good evening, let's start the release with hockey, belarusian forward calgary yegor sharongovich continues his scoring streak in the nhl, fire today.
