which we are confident will also result in growth this year. in terms of gdp forecast for 2024, growth is 3.8%. we have set such a bar for ourselves, i have already looked at what foreign analysts are predicting for us, for example, even the eurasian development bank gives us a forecast of no more than 2%. the imf, in my opinion, is less than a percent. in general, for you, what would you say are the main risks for the belarusian economy in this?

accordingly, we have developed calculations of the same detail and setting of tasks in this, so here these analysts are probably let them be more focused on the tasks that we set for ourselves in our forecasts. a unified register of legal carriers, information systems of aggregators within the country, control and transparency of the transportation sector. belarus is preparing to adopt a decree that will regulate passenger transportation. among others, this segment of the market. the biggest. last year alone , belarusian vehicles transported almost 940 million people. and here there are only two requirements: safety for people and legal work. both the carriers themselves, taxis, minibuses and buses, and aggregators. these are services for collecting and distributing orders, the popularity of which has recently increased. in total , more than 7,500 legal entities and another 11 thousand individual entrepreneurs are involved in such work in belarus. therefore, equal

conditions for competition in the market are important. alina lopo will continue the topic. today, belarusians are increasingly choosing public transport to move from point a to point b. be it buses, minibuses, trams, trolleybuses. the numbers will definitely tell you this. for 2023 only road transport carried 937 million passengers, which is almost three million more than the previous period. percent, this is the largest segment in the field of passenger transportation, in this work the main criterion is safety, adherence to schedule and accessibility. however, complaints from citizens are still being recorded, among the main complaints received by government agencies are non-compliance with the schedule, unsatisfactory condition of vehicles and buses not leaving the route, especially in rural areas. the main problem today is, which has not yet been settled, this is not.

outside the legal framework. representatives of government authorities and major carriers spoke about this the other day at a meeting. all interested departments and ministries were invited to the dialogue. the main issues have been addressed and the carriers' proposals have been heard. the proposals that have been made require elaboration, because in fact it was expressed by one subject. we need to analyze how this will work from the point of view of the republic. we

discussed in order to come to a common agreement opinion that there should be no understatement between carriers, operators, authorities and regulatory authorities. a new decree has been issued to regulate this area. the documents are being prepared for adoption and provide for a number of innovations. for example, it is planned to create a state register of irregular traffic. it will include information about vehicles, drivers and dispatchers. a transition period is also established - this is 3 months, during which carriers can... register on this information platform without charging any money. resource. the transport inspectorate has begun to develop technical requirements for this resource. this is a question of digitalization. all passengers go to work, from work to medical institutions, some go to school, children, so stable operation of transport is the main task of the country, the ministry of transport, and local authorities. in addition, the opportunity is being introduced to limit the presence of unscrupulous participants in the market. all these measures will certainly increase the responsibility of drivers. yes, in general they will help

regulate the sphere. the department emphasizes please note, we are not talking about tightening rules for business. the purpose of the innovation is to create equal conditions for competition in the market and ensure safety. in transport activities. today in belarus, regular transportation on the basis of a license is carried out by more than 7,500 legal entities and another 11 thousand individual entrepreneurs. alina lopo and dmitry garkusha, area of ​​interest. now a short advertisement. next are the exchange rates and the new quality mark of belarus. we'll show you how the best producers will be recognized. 100 brave guys gathered in our studio, each of them has a question for an adult , why do you think children ask strange

questions, a person is always scared by something new, what scared you when you were offered to become the rector of mbsu, what you could never forgive, for example, a loved one to a person, as in... in the gospel, if you forgive and forgive people for their sins, then the heavenly father will forgive you everything. the heroes of the program will have to open up to the audience. the main task is to honestly answer all original, and sometimes awkward questions. what is bsu, what is not in any another university? very good question. flakes are flying upward, magic light is everywhere, in your time, so interesting, modern, the music you listen to, the music you like, it should probably

sound, look at the project 100 questions for adults on the belarus 24 tv channel. in the world 256 countries, mostly the world admires belarus and belarusians, like cuba, brazil and venezuela, but for some time we had the habit of not listening to them, but waiting for a bunch of other countries to appreciate us, supposedly more democratic than all of the above states. the most psychologically difficult thing is to monotonously, methodically, calmly, but efficiently do your regular work every single day. and this, it seems to me, is what is needed from us for the country in 2024. if anyone doesn’t know where to start, start with yourself. they are constantly trying to prick lukashenko and his government with this word, saying that you want stability, does biden want stability, let’s say? he wants stability more than anyone, because the united states is potentially a much more unstable system than russia, china, and

even belarus. but there is a nuance: stability america is ensured by the instability of the rest of the world. we need to appreciate this stability, because it’s not only expensive , it’s... a stage propaganda project, watch it on the belarus24 tv channel. this is an area of ​​interest, and we continue, the exchange rate of the belarusian ruble has strengthened against the dollar and the euro has weakened against the yuan and the russian ruble. so, the current rates for the national bank: dollar. costs 3 rubles 14 kopecks, the euro has been reduced, its exchange rate is 3.42, for 10 yuaniya they give 4.37 belarusian, and for 100 russian 3 rubles, 58 kopecks. belarus approved a republican action plan for holding the year of quality, there are 69 of them in total. they

are aimed at strengthening the economic potential of belarus, as well as ensuring quality indicators through stimulating initiative. the measures will affect all areas, including forestry. and even tourism, with special attention to improving the quality of life in rural areas. in addition, belarus has already acquired its own quality mark. anton malyuta knows which sample was taken as a basis and what its five corners symbolize. what should a belarusian quality mark look like? there was a whole discussion about this. main the order was not to deviate from the best soviet traditions. and this is what the final version looks like: five corners symbolize the combination of five production indicators, thanks to which we achieve the quality of our products, safety, environmental friendliness, innovation, manufacturability and aesthetics. the procedure for assigning a state quality mark and the list of incentive benefits and preferences

provided to manufacturers upon its assignment will be determined by the government. a whole mechanism has been developed, quite serious, which will be implemented in flow. will be certified for safety, which means compliance with all regulatory requirements, that is , standards, technical regulations for these products, for innovation, the committee on science and technology must assess whether this product really carries innovation, what is this innovation, and in terms of manufacturability, corresponding... how much technology changes, what changes in this technology, what changes

this technology gives, and in terms of aesthetics, the ministry of antimonopoly regulation will control how aesthetically pleasing this product is, how correctly the appropriate packaging has been chosen, and so on, these are all aesthetic issues, including sustainability. use of resources and not harming the environment. legal subtleties are also important. experts note that the quality mark is a certification and guarantee mark at the same time. and, of course, an additional plus for brand recognition. true, there are more risks, for example, the danger of counterfeiting. manufacturers are not allowed forget about the protection of intellectual property. if these products go to export markets, they are exhibited at international exhibitions. of course, manufacturers need it.

will be marked with some signs of our belarusian manufacturers, accordingly, these signs, trademarks of our belarusian manufacturers must be protected, they must be registered either with us in the national center of intellectual property, or if we are talking about export markets, they must be registered in the countries where the products will be exported, having intellectual property protection, the manufacturer will be able to protect their products from counterfeiting, the quality mark will be issued for 2 years, and at the same time... control how the high level of products is maintained. it is planned that the first holders of the sign will appear in belarus by

the end of 2024. anton malyuta and anzor tuzhaev, area of ​​interest. that's all for today, look at your area of ​​interest three times a week, tuesday, wednesday and thursday. good luck in your business and see you. let's go on a trip to belarus. katya, very nice. katya is very nice. katya, here in this area there will be trenches, ditches, mountains, forests and other features of landscape design. you are restoring a real , real, once residential farm. the motives that led to...

if i hadn't been told that we were here on a landscape designer's property, i would have thought that some football fan lived here, because what is that? well, this is our greenhouse, i’m a project from the village, watch it on the belarus 24 tv channel. their every day it starts with a feeling, there are such trills here, that is, you are sitting at home, such birds singing, especially in the evening, i have never heard this anywhere else in my life.

we've been throwing one old thing after another, sniffing at the words of our skin, from all the right now, the most creative people, the most important and useful ones - these books, the books have the thoughts of the last century, the reports and expressive voices alasy people. everything that chalavetstva created, she ate up on old books, bytstsam witchcraft. we read the past centuries, the closer ones, we appreciate the past for our daily life.

russia 24. i’m in one of the oldest cities in our country, the homeland of the enlighteners, and this place is simply loaded with attractions. have you already guessed where i am? dear friends, today i am planning my route to polotsk, and my journey promises to be very exciting. there are so many historical and cultural monuments in one city, just a gift for curious tourists, and today i will visit a church that is almost nine centuries old, master ancient painting techniques, join the national ritual in weaving museums and study the history of the city in monuments.

you can get to polotsk by train or minibus without transfers, the first option is cheaper, a ticket costs from 15 rubles and is more comfortable, but minibuses run much more often, every hour, the journey will take no more than 4 hours, and if you go on your own... the oldest city in belarus , the western dvina has stood at the intersection of the polota rivers for more than eleven centuries. many beautiful legends go around this city. ragneda, yazyaslav, vyacheslav charadey. now it is impossible to say for sure which stories about them are true and which are fiction. one thing

is certain. polotsk has a rich cultural heritage worth sharing. first of all, polotsk is known as one of the religious centers of belarus. churches and cathedrals built many centuries ago still operate here. unfortunately, we know very little about those who built and designed them. the name zodchiva ioanna appears only once in the life of st. euphrasinia and gumenia of polotsk. and yet, researchers of ancient russian architecture make personal connections. john with the heyday of the polotsk school of patronymics of the 19th century. in simple terms, he is the first belarusian an architect who is mentioned in written sources. by the way, it was he who became the author of the church to which i am now heading. look, he's holding it in his hands. the transfiguration church was

built during the life of euphrasinia of polotsk. the cell in which she lived is also located. saint, restoration is now in full swing , those frescoes that were painted directly under her leadership are being revealed, on them are the faces of saints to whom saint ephrasenia prayed and whom she imitated with her holy way of life, and scenes from the twelve feasts. at the top there was a fresco, also the resurrection of christ, that is, christ suffered for you and me in order to open the ora gates for us, he defeated the devil, satan, the fez painting of the 19th century was written in a way: restorers from moscow, minsk and st. petersburg are engaged in responsible work. frescoes that were once painted on the walls of the church of the savior can now be seen

not only in the church itself. some of them were moved to the polotsk art gallery, where they are given excursions, shown, and told all the details of art murals and i’m going to look there too. the art gallery is located in one of the buildings of the former jesuit college. an integral artistic complex has been created here, dedicated to the iconography of belarus, a collection of copper castings and secular portraits. only original works of art created in the 17th-11th centuries are exhibited in the gallery. before you is an icon depicting st. nicholas the wonderworker. nicholas the wonderworker is one of the most. revered christian saints, patron of agriculture, trade, protector of the poor and disadvantaged. on this icon, in addition to the canonical image

, three bags were added above the gospel, they are written here for a reason, this is a story from the life of st. nicholas, when he threw three bags of gold to the undevoted girls to save them from poverty and shame. the uniqueness of this icon is in its background image, here we see... hand carving on gesso, special polished ground, this distinguishes the icon by technology, this is a belarusian icon, a local polotsk icon. one of the most common subjects in iconography is, of course, the virgin mary with a small child. jesus. there are several types of images of the mother of god and child, and this one is called tenderness. it is the most lyrical of all types of iconography. mother and child clung to each other's faces, expressing mutual affection. icons get their names from the places where they were first painted or divinely appeared, which is why these icons have these

names: the kazan icon of the mother of god and the vladimir icon of the mother of god. not only ancient art is worthy of attention in the gallery, the whole. a section of the exhibition is dedicated to the works of almost our contemporary ninel happy ivanovna. the polotsk artist is known far beyond the borders of polotsk for her unusual technique. she applied droplets of pva glue to the canvases, which rolled off after drying, giving the surface a unique texture. she covered these droplets with many layers of tempera paint. due to the fact that the layers were not completely painted over, we see how the canvas literally glows from the inside. through the foggy haze appears the silhouette of a belarusian bison, a tree with branches pointing upward and a nest on the top, like a symbol of a girl with her arms raised and

wreath on the head. the artist applied so many layers of paint that on one centimeter of the painting you can see 100, or even 1.00 shades. on the first floor of the gallery. an exhibition dedicated to the murals of the transfiguration church, which i visited today. the frescoes exhibited here were created over seven centuries, from the twelfth to the 19th. here is an image of st. george from 1885. the next one, under it was the image of st. george from 1837, respectively, the artists. on top of the fresco painting of st. george they applied one layer of oil painting with the same image and a second layer of oil painting with the same image, just in its own

vision of different years of work. all the frescoes are original, there are no copies here, they were carefully peeled off from the walls of the church using a special technique. to remove a fresco from a wall, a gauze canvas is glued to it, and then removed with a special scalpel along with the paint. it's very painstaking. photo restoration of frescoes takes a lot of time. anyone who comes to the gallery can also feel like a freeski master. anna, but i’m warning you right away, i draw very poorly. this is completely unimportant, because before we draw, we need to do some other very interesting things. in order to paint a fresco, you naturally need plaster. previously, they used seed solution, which is a lime solution. with brick chips, now we use more modern materials, here we have a dry mixture to which we add water, for a start we don’t start it very much usually.

use a construction spatula to stir the mortar it should turn out like thick sour cream, then you can get to work, okay, your tool, uh-huh, thank you, solution, i’ve never done anything like that, great, we applied the plaster, we have this fragment, which was also on.. .. painted on the walls of the church of the savior, we put it on top of the plaster, i give you a pencil, with which you trace the fragment so that it just imprints, you don’t need to press too hard, our layer is quite thin, so we just trace it lightly, and the masters at that time too like this like this tracing paper, no, they didn’t trace, they wrote

directly on the wet piece. but we are writing exactly those scenes that were painted on the walls of the church of the transfiguration of the savior, so we invite our visitors to outline, well, it stuck a little, so it will just be a small outline, yeah, now we are drawing it back, and in fact, i warned anna that i’m not a good master nothing. but i don’t give up, anna began to correct my work, i still have a chance to create a real fresco, of course, before the masters used natural paints, for example, they used lapis lazuli for the green color and umber for the ocher color, but i will paint with ordinary gouache, this is the first time in my life that i am painting a fresco, i like it so much, but well , i also feel a sense of responsibility, i must

admit. after i finish painting the fresco, anna, i can take it with me, a visitor can take his painting with him for an additional fee, but we have a gallery where visitors leave their work, so you can leave a piece of your creativity in our gallery. this place is specially prepared for my fresco, when it dries, it will become part of the gallery, this is how i will leave my mark in polotsk, and here? thank you very much, thanks, only thanks to your sensitive guidance, this beauty turned out to be so beautiful. friends, look how cool it is, if you also want to feel like a master fresco artist, be sure to come to polotsk and paint your own fresco. today i can try myself not only as a fresco artist. here in the gallery, it turns out, there is another wonderful place where i can also be an artist, but this time completely

to others. how unusual. room, and you and i are now in the engraving workshop, which was created on the basis of the project under the sign of skaryna, and it is dedicated to the art of engraving, as well as graphics. an engraving is a print of a design that is pre-cut on an engraving board. technologies do not stand still, and today everything is much easier. advanced materials are used, for example, artistic lunoleum instead of a real board, and a pre... drawing is cut out on it, a drawing from this engraving was cut with similar cutters , here are the cutters that artists have used since the 16th century, and after the engraving was cut out, then a layer of paint was applied to it, after which the engraving was sent to the printing press, exactly the same machine was used in its time san francisco scarina, and i

might try it now too. i chose, dear friends, an engraving of polotsk, well, i’m in polotsk, so it seems to me that everything is very symbolic, plus i really liked it, tell me where we’re starting, i’ll take it typographic paint i will place it on the surface of the table, after that i take a special artistic roller and roll this paint onto the surface of the roller, in principle i already see that it is enough, now this paint can be transferred to the engraving board with the same movements,
