the american pipe has completely lost its dignity. you cannot shred your economy for the sake of imperial ambitions. you cannot be carried away by the crazy whim of the white house, forgetting about your people and your interests. society has a logical question: if they don’t respect us, why do we need such rulers? the president of belarus also spoke about the obvious formula and consequences for the eu, more than once predicting very difficult times for european leaders. you need to take your head in your hands and think. how to live further, germany, all of europe, there are no leaders there now, if they were, they, you understand, they can’t even put out a fire in their own house, the europeans don’t want this war, they understand that today in ukraine, here they are trying to set belarus on fire, tomorrow all of europe, romania, austria, italy, about poland, france, germany will break out already told, the first month of the year for europe under a short slogan. everyone is on strike, farmers could not

stand it even in russophobic lithuania. the european union is indeed on the verge of significant changes. the economy is just the beginning; illegal immigrants are here to stay. day by day , the face of europe is changing radically due to the fact that terrorist threats are uncontrollable... immigration is destroying the idyll of free movement between eu countries. because of this, the schengen zone may cease to exist. the amazing stubbornness of local politicians, the further, the more it leads europe into the abyss of serious upheavals. bogged down in the discontent of society, he would not choke from his stubbornness, in the shaking of failed adventures, or in the rivers of manure that farmers are actively pouring on the street. after all, the reasons for the crisis are obvious. the only pity is that it’s public and, most importantly, internal. their

the unprincipled pro-american attitude of the european elite will never recognize it. i hope this will be clear to you now. happily.

digital evolution in the eurasian union. the intergovernmental council of the eu and the almaty digital forum were hosted by kazakhstan. the next meeting of the five will be held in may in belarus. cooperation between scientists of belarus and russia in 2024 , nine programs of the union state will be implemented. control over the import of medical products and equipment came into force due to changes to the healthcare law. and the traditions of celebrating chinese new year in belarus. at the digital forum in almaty , the introduction of it technologies into industry was discussed; our columnist alesya vysotskaya knows why the presented developments are interesting. almaty represents the best

achievement in eurasia in digitalization. belarusians brought their advanced solutions in medicine. digital diagnostics are interesting for the heads of clinics in kazakhstan, but a smart operating room is completely unique and , well, in general, impossible. our simulator, which allows you to drive a tractor and a truck, also aroused interest. everything is like the real thing cars, models agreed with auto giants. you can virtually test yourself as a master, disassemble and reassemble a broken mechanism. for example, harvesting can be practiced once a year; in real

practice, in the simulator, you can harvest crops around the clock, all year round. very high efficiency of training personnel for efficient operation of equipment. economic effect, precision farming, labeling for tracking goods, robots in production, logistics, all this already exists in belarus. we are converting public services into numbers. special attention to import substitution of software is key to digital sovereignty. in recent years , we have faced a number of geopolitical challenges that have shown that it is impossible to build an economy, including a digital one, only on the basis of foreign and proprietary solutions. it is necessary to develop our own national software that meets our goals and is based on our own technologies with the widespread use of open source code. i believe that work on import substitution in this area should be implemented and

organized on a nuclear power plant scale. the necessary conditions for this have already been created. an intergovernmental council also took place in almaty. today, the five makes important decisions for the development of economies.

at least the technological prerequisites for these are fully implemented, we will get , so that those drugs that will be developed with these technologies will... target a specific virus, bacteria, but at the same time minimize the possibility of influencing others human elements and organs. let us recall that the scientific and technological achievements of the union state were discussed at the supreme state council in st. petersburg, and at the same time

the development strategy until 1935 was approved. this is a basic document aimed at ensuring security, strengthening scientific and technological sovereignty, solving socio-political problems... the port capacities of st. petersburg have become the base for belarusian cargo, last year, out of 14 million tons that our country sent through all russian ports, almost 13 million left through the city of naneve. volumes in recent years have grown significantly, with the existing railway infrastructure, we are actually reaching the transshipment ceiling. therefore, the railways of the two countries have agreed on investment plans to meet demand. the first stage is the construction of seven sidings.

companies increasing imports and exports, economic cooperation mutual visits: belarus is strengthening ties with tatarstan, what did the parties agree on at the meeting in minsk? the minsk region has been interacting with this republic for several years now; in 2019, ties were strengthened by signing an agreement on cooperation. mutual work has become closer, and new prospects have emerged after the introduction of sanctions. now the regions have many joint projects with an emphasis on import substitution. and we have a lot in common. very much, the volume of trade turnover is quite high, i must report and

bow deeply to you for agricultural machinery, for tractors, belarus, for the mineral fertilizers that we buy from you, they are successfully working in the agricultural sector of the economy of our republic, these projects that we have today discussed examples of integration cooperation between the belarusian side and the russian side... mutually beneficial, because of my visit to kazan, let's say, we are already the republic of tatarstan. within the framework, it is possible that enterprises from both our minsk region will participate in these projects, and we will discuss further steps to deepen our relations, not only in the economic sphere, but in the field of culture, education, in fact, an interesting region, we have over than to work. in recent years, trade turnover has been increased, so in january and november 23. traded for more than $17 million; during a two-day visit, the delegation visited

the largest enterprises in the minsk region, and this set the stage for new contracts. thank you, the review was prepared by olesya vysotskaya. more news from the economic sphere and not only on the website of our tv channel belarus24.by. experts note an increase in mutual tourist flows between belarus and russia. this trend has become especially noticeable in recent years. comfortable. logistics without visas, absence of language barriers, all this contributes to that citizens of the two countries have increased interest in domestic tourism. we will ask philip gulov, chairman of the board of the republican union of tourism industry, what destinations are available to residents of the union state today and what is in the near future. philip anatolyich, hello. hello. so, last year, as far as we know, was a record year for the number of trips our citizens made to russia. in your opinion, what is causing such a stir, what is russia? attracts our travelers, first of all, these are the natural limitations of other outbound

markets that, due to various circumstances , have developed in recent years, from the pandemic to the global chaos that is happening outside our borders, and most importantly, they confidently said, this is the availability of the billcart payment system, good logistics, and most importantly, the development of a regional flight program , because due to subsidies, a number of russian regions have sent direct flights, and to... spa complexes of other infrastructure, that is , the russian recreation center is becoming more attractive and widespread. but on the other hand on the other hand, this is a two-way street, as they say, belarus

, according to the data of recent years and the last year as well, is also in the top 10, probably, and in high positions of popular destinations among russians, what causes this, well, the trade balance the balance of exports should be in our direction for tourism, and we are, of course, doing everything in our power for this, and in general this is the main strategy, a lot of russian tourists came, but it is extremely difficult to say for sure, since we don’t have... however, for some positions and articles belstat and other regulatory officials confidently and quite seriously call the figure over 4 million, this also takes place, since unorganized tourists from russia to belarus are about 73%, this is a very high figure, which is very difficult to calculate, but according to statistics there are problems with statistics of accurate

calculations in tourism, they are not only in belarus and russia, they are, in principle, for the post-soviet space and a lot of other countries. typical on the planet, i’ll finish now, because it’s still impossible to accurately calculate the contribution to gdp from this tourism, because we know how much he paid for a trip, for an air ticket, although this does not go into the export of services, for a hotel for a museum, but how much he spent on his accommodation, entertainment, purchase of souvenirs or belarusian products, which is very important, we it’s time to calculate this, but in any case, you are absolutely right about such a colossal growth in russian tourism, which would compensate for the flow that...

various excursions and what is the beauty of this? is that people who travel are real tourists, living passengers, they return home, with the help of word of mouth, or, as they say, correct marketing, they carry information about our country, and then, over time, this flight is already able to be filled with real commercial

tourists, transferring this subsidy, where the state pays into commercial a channel where people pay themselves and... to promote it, it is planned, among other things , to create a tourist center of the union state, what kind of project is this, how will it work? well, this project is quite good, there is initiative here, and professional and quite healthy, it belongs to our regulator of the ministry of sports and tourism, even more precisely to the deputy minister and his team, for us, for professionals, this is a very good story about the formalization of the space of the union

state, that is, the routes that pass through ours. which, by the way, serves as a very good example for all other yaes countries, also titz is an opportunity to formalize all cross-marketing initiatives, that is, when we work together as a single product moscow, minsk st. petersburg, work with third countries from uzbekistan and azerbaijan to china and india. another event that we already know is that in the spring, in minsk, the second

russian-belarusian tourism congress will be held. what kind of event is this and what will be on the program? the congress is in its second year. but diplomats, deputies from the relevant committees, this year, in addition to the committee on tourism, the state duma, we should be joined by colleagues from the committee on foreign policy, the union state, youth policy, this is too broad an area, and of course government officials, the ministry of economic development and our regulator, where they are discussed. to somewhat weaken the financial support for those who work in domestic russian tourism, so that without changing the conditions, they can also work for

the outbound market of belarus and this has been done this year, there are other examples, but for a wide audience, it probably makes no sense, they are very professional, this year the next revision and harmonization of some elements of the basic law, because this year we will be able to make amendments to the sectoral law on tourism. practice application showed that there is something to discuss , there is something to optimize, thank god, this has the support of all those interested, and the ministry; in the russian federation, a new law will also be adopted this year, accordingly, we can do some reasonable things simultaneously and at the same time, this is what we will talk about, well, in addition to legislative initiatives that need to be formalized with officials, deputies, diplomats and the business elite, of course, people want to come to an agreement with each other, shake hands, hear about new products, conclude. well,

there is probably a lot of work ahead, but no one has canceled rest either. thank you. philip guloy, chairman of the board of the republican union of tourism industry, answered questions from the program. next in the event program is the development of a covid-19 blocker from scientists of the union state, a cultural program of the belarusian state philharmonic in honor of the chinese. new year and new objects on the sports map of belarus. we'll be back at the studio in a few minutes. this is the event program for belarus24 and we continue. came into force in belarus changes to the health care law. our columnist elena puntus will talk about innovations. first of all, the country will strengthen control over the import of medical products and equipment. precise definitions of poor quality are also given.

the basic level is responsible for the safety of services, all hospitals, clinics and medical centers, both private and public, without exception, must pass it, the second level is national, this is about the quality of service, a higher level of equipment and qualifications of specialists. this type of accreditation can be obtained by desire. scientists from belarus and russia have developed a covid-19 blocker, which can become an effective means of combating coronavirus. how does the drug differ from existing ones? in this case, no. interaction with other proteins in the human body, and this is less dangerous to health. the life cycle of the coronavirus is primarily dependent on the mp enzyme. it was precisely this that

scientists worked on: when the activity of the enzyme is stopped , the reproduction of the virus is blocked. the development is a substance in powder form and it will become the basis for a future medicine. as a result, you get something like this, that is , a certain amount of white powder, which is subsequently sent for testing, actually in... in our case, we sent them to altai state university for testing, they check and send you these results, you in the end, you choose one of these powders and conduct tests, for example, on people, as a result you get results that say: yeah, here, this particular substance, it really can be tablet. development of the blocker will continue; i note that today there are several drugs on the world market that work using this mechanism. celebrating chinese has become a good tradition. new year's eve in belarus, a cultural program was presented at the belarusian state philharmonic society. what music unites belarusian and chinese listeners today? for 10 years now, our country

has been hosting cultural events dedicated to the main holiday of the celestial empire. traditional chinese melodies were played in performed by the belarusian symphony orchestra under the direction of conductor yuri karavaev and chief conductor of the people's artist of belarus alexander anisimov. the chinese musical ensemble huas also took part in the concert program. it is precisely such holidays , based on our traditional values , which we have in many ways similar, such as love for the motherland, love for parents, love for the younger generation, that are certainly important for both the chinese people and the belarusian people; together with our belarusian friends we celebrate very rich cultural events such as cultural days, film week, exhibition - and other art seminars and others such and so on and so forth, which. plays a very important

role in introducing our peoples to each other, on the eve of the chinese new year, i would like to wish our belarusian friends good health, success in work and family happiness. according to the chinese calendar, the year of the dragon will begin on february 10, usually celebrated for 2 weeks. more. the facility has been added to the sports map of belarus . an ice palace was opened in svetlogorsk. what uniqueness of the new arena? thanks to the support of the president, the facility was included in the investment program and was built in the shortest possible time. the new ice palace was hosted and the first match in the opening match was symbolically played by children. the team from the gomel region fought against the team from the bryansk region, and the belarusians won. about 60 children have already signed up for the local hockey section. the facility is also ready to issue equipment for public

skating. the complex provides.

back special forces medical unit 432 main military clinical medical center of the armed forces of belarus provided assistance to the syrian population affected by the earthquake. what kind of work did belarusians do in the disaster zone and how to become a high-class doctor, we will ask evgeniy romanovsky, senior resident physician, traumatologist-orthopedist of the operating department of the main military clinical medical center of the armed forces of belarus. evgeniy, hello. hello. so, let me in. first of all, congratulations on such a high award, thank you! belarus was indeed one of the first to respond to the tragedy, which occurred in syria, you found our doctors at the very epicenter of the earthquake, how many days did our team stay there and what kind of assistance did they provide? our brigade stayed there for 30 days, that is, a month, so we moved there, literally in 3 days we packed up and

flew out.

a whole year and it’s like syria is also an arab country, in principle i already knew the mentality of the arabs, i knew what to be prepared for, i have a rough idea of ​​how to communicate with them, i know a couple of dozen words there, even in principle, if a person does not knows we're in lebanon communicated in english, in syria few arabs know english, well, in principle, even if there was no translator, it was possible to understand from... an explanation what a person wants, what hurts him, what he needs to help, well, there are nuances in general communication with slaves, for example, you can’t, for example , undress a woman, so that she can be undressed for inspection without her consent, and there is the presence of some relative close by, you can’t even touch her there, sometimes such nuances are enough .
