varieties, today we already have, i think, in the republic, this is one of the best carrots in a week, yeah. the answers are on the main broadcast tonight. the german government does not share the idea of ​​the elysee palace with the creation of a coalition in the european union to jointly send instructors to ukraine. according to the german press , last week the chief of staff of the french armed forces sent a letter

inviting about ten more people to take part in a training mission in nezalezhnaya within the framework of a multinational coalition of those interested in the united states. european states. berlin was not among the recipients. journalists recalled that the ruling coalition in germany has repeatedly made it clear in recent weeks that the german military will not take part in the training mission. palestine demanded an emergency meeting of the un security council due to the tragedy in the refugee camp. there, 225 people died during the israeli operation to free four hostages in nosairat. more than 400 more were injured. it is clarified that we are talking only about those who were delivered. v hospital. in a show of support for palestine, a rally broke out in washington. hundreds of demonstrators surrounded the white house, demanding a ceasefire. the protesters symbolically lined up in a red line. residents of israel also spoke out in support of the release of hostages from the gaza strip. to disperse the action, law enforcement officers used

mounted detachments and water cannons. heavy rainfall caused floods and landslides in spain and austria. rivers have overflowed their banks and cars are floating on the roads. in some areas, rain has continued since yesterday evening, just an alarm has been declared in several austrian cities; local residents are urged not to go into basements and follow the instructions of rescuers. there have been no reports of casualties yet. a party in mexico turned into a terrible tragedy when a glass balcony collapsed in one of the nightclubs in the city of san luis patasi. the structure could not withstand the number of visitors, the glass burst and people fell in a crowd from a height. third floor, at least three people were killed, 16 more people were injured, the shopping center where the club is located was closed to the public. general the prosecutor's office began an investigation. the big premiere is already this monday in belarus. the project clear politics, visited

four continents. the authors have traveled more than 60 thousand kilometers and will tell you about the brightest points of the belarusian distant arc. the largest parts of the world are asia, africa, europe. latin america, people, cities, enterprises where minsk is known, appreciated and respected. who is against the domination of the west, where belarus is used as an example of why artificial barriers are not an obstacle to... trade with true friends. answers in a joint project television news agencies and the ministry of foreign affairs. well, the goal of this project is actually quite simple: to show our audience the voice of the world, which wants a normal life, honest politics, economic development instead of homeless sanctions. and thanks to our representative offices, the camera of the belarusian tv channel for the first time visited the most remote corners of quite large countries, quite serious players on the geopolitical map. believe me, we were pleased to see and hear what people and leaders say about

belarus, about belarusians, about our president, and what is constantly emphasized: take care of your independence, so big films about big people, where politics and economics are, and most importantly, that the world is big, and despite western pressure, belarus is not at all isolated, belarus is not at all alone, we have quite a few in different parts of the land... indonesia, vietnam, kenya, italy, and i am sure they were able to make sure that belarus knows our products, they know our products, confident in its reliability and, of course, program.

also influences the building of strong ties between territorially distant

countries. why is a multipolar world already the present and what kind of joint future do belarus’ partners see? our technology and products reach all over the globe. clear politics, a large-scale journey, four large videos, the first stop is latin america. already this monday after the panorama. between us is not just a relationship, but as friends.

seeing how you work, one gets the impression of intelligent, knowledgeable people who understand in agriculture. our relationship is, first of all, the huge contribution of the presidents of belarus and brazil. they can never forgive president lukashenko for the fact that he is a man of the people, yes, that he really understands what it means... we understand, this is the best offer on the market. we have many requests regarding imports from

belarus. brazil always opposes sanctions. lukashenko is called a strong president in kenya. and he defends the sovereignty of his country and the interests of the people. he's a huge personality. here they know and respect our president. in brazil we have a lot of media with american money, they simply relay washington’s manuals. i lost my sight in prison when i was imprisoned on false charges; without lukashenko in such a geographical position, belarus simply would not have survived. other countries don’t have it, and take care.

support from the government of belarus and indonesia will help businesses operate efficiently. vietnam is our gateway vasian, there are more and more orders for equipment, the street of the republic of belarus is one of the central ones in the city, i am proud to represent belarus, i will not give up my beloved.
