firefighters are trying to extinguish fire at versailles, one of the most luxurious palaces on the planet. and a double gift from the presidential sports club agrogorod kuvishov, the power play area invites everyone to exercise for their health. today alexander lukashenko received a report from the head of the central election commission. the meeting began with a significant moment; the president was presented with the certificate of the chairman of the all-belarusian people's assembly. hello. i don’t have a certificate, i remember, he suddenly asks, i’m already working as a chairman, and in accordance with the law, decide to present you with a certificate of the chairman of the all-belarusian people’s assembly of the republic of belarus, and on behalf of the central election commission on my own behalf i wish you good health and success in serving the belarusian people, thank you alexander bukov. thank you. belarus is on

the eve of an important election campaign, with presidential elections ahead. they must take place no later than july 20, 2025. the exact date will be determined by law by the house of representatives. this conversation with the chairman of the central committee about some organizational moments of the upcoming campaign, so to speak, is a first approximation. but alexander lukashenko emphasizes the main thing: the elections must be held with dignity. if we take a retrospective and look at past elections.

put pressure on administrative resources, we are fairly capable of holding these elections, especially against the backdrop of our fugitive elections, journalists often talk about elections from almost 7 million voters, they had as many as 6,000 vote and nothing, they consider themselves elected, they elected parliament, let's go ask for money in cities and villages, well, that's their problem, what's going on here? about what

they call it now, uni, so we must hold these elections with dignity, not offend people, this is the main thing, elections are for the people, for our state, but not to offend people. the holding of presidential elections will be a kind of final part of a large electoral cycle. it started after the republican referendum in 2022 amending the constitution. the amended electoral legislation was implemented on a single voting day and is being adjusted today. sco, we propose to expand the geography of the chairmen and representatives of the central election commission, not only the cis countries, but also... other countries of the african

continent, latin america, europe, by the way, we also do not rule out that this is also possible, and especially since you know that we had european countries in the form of experts, represented on a single day. format, this is rather a perspective, they will still look and discuss what is acceptable for us, security is at the forefront, ensuring electoral sovereignty, features of the upcoming election campaign, what conclusions did the central election commission make as a whole? voting, what will be taken into account in the future and whether the electoral process can go digital. the most important and interesting thing from a detailed conversation with the head of state, chairman of the central election commission igor korpenko will tell today immediately after the panorama in the project a conversation with the president. belarus confirms its readiness to increase cooperation with

azerbaijan. the prospects for joint work were discussed today at the independence palace. the head of the azerbaijani parliament saghiba gafarova is in minsk on an official visit. interparliamentary relations are keeping up with the level.

time. the focus of attention of parliamentarians is the implementation of agreements between leaders alexander lukashenko and ilham aliyev, achieved during our president's state visit to azerbaijan in may. this business trip opened a new chapter in the history of bilateral relations with an eye to the long term. let us remember that the politicians had a busy marathon of negotiations. in total, alexander lukashenko and ilham aliyev communicated for 18 hours in various formats. the cooperation roadmap has been radically updated. minsk baku is interested in deepening.

he made a car and drove me through almost all the territories that are now liberated and that need to be restored, when i was in shusha, i told him that you live in paradise, i have visited such a place in many places

on our planet, i have never seen it anywhere, clean air, beautiful nature, i am sure that you will accomplish another feat, restoring life on... these territories, we will be happy to participate in these works, we have identified some directions, there are no obstacles, our trade turnover is not bad, but it is unbalanced, we understand that we need to buy more goods from azerbaijan, but we will regulate this, large delegation azerbaijan is here, ilham gedarovich and i talked about the areas that we need to intensively develop. in terms of technology transfer and so on, from the military-industrial complex to agriculture, there are no closed topics, we are ready to work in this direction, but i am sure that our parliamentarians will ensure this process legislatively, thank you again for this

visit to our belarus. first of all, allow me to convey to you the greetings of our president ilham aliyev with best wishes.

our peoples are bound by these values. in this regard, the speaker of parliament mentioned her visit to the belarusian state university. at a meeting with students, the guest noted that it is important to always remember the path that the country has passed. the day before, igiba gafarova was awarded the title of honorary professor at bsu. new vectors of interaction at the level of parliaments of the two countries. immediately after the palace of independence , the azerbaijani delegation went to negotiations at the council of the republic. there, sagib gafarova met with the chairman of the upper house, natalya kachanova. and chairman house of representatives igor sergeenko. first a meeting in the tetat format, then in

a more expanded format. during the conversation , the parties noted that the task set by the presidents by 2030, to reach the level of a billion dollars in goods, largely obliges industrialists and agricultural producers first of all. we believe that we must very correctly, objectively, i would say, confidently use the belarusian experience in preserving industry.

with the parliament of azerbaijan. our parliamentarians actively interact with azerbaijani colleagues on the platforms of such structures as the interparliamentary assembly, cis member states and the interparliamentary union. and today the president signed a decree on granting belarusian citizenship to 244 people, including 24 minors. the new citizens of our country were people who arrived from eighteen countries. the presentation of belarusian passports to them will be preceded by a solemn ceremony of taking the oath of citizenship of the republic of belarus. at the same time, the head of state decided to reject a number of applications foreign citizens who have not fulfilled all the conditions for obtaining citizenship of the republic of belarus established by national legislation. the french media reported today that president macron is in connection with the scandalous loss of his movement. may resign in the european parliament elections in the near future. macron denied these rumors. however, these

types of leaks do not occur out of nowhere. it is likely that the resignation of the president was considered as one of the possible options. this doesn't mean that macron admitted defeat and is ready to leave. most likely, the country plans to launch a mobilization campaign under the slogan “let’s stop the offensive of the right.” at the same time , macron’s opponents from marine lepine’s party are planning to take control of parliament in the june elections, and are even looking closely at... we have achieved a historic, unprecedented, irreversible victory in the european elections, this, i believe, is a completely obvious mind of distrust in the government. the french know our priorities: welfare, security, immigration control, the country needs the triumph of law and order, i am ready to represent the majority of the people, including by leading the country. macron clearly does not intend to concede, and therefore is escalating the situation. in french society as a whole, left-wing sentiments reign and the so-called ... macronites often use intimidation of citizens in order to achieve, even temporary support.

this is unlikely to be related to the problems of president macron, but the dark symbolism of this event is striking. about an hour ago the palace of versailles caught fire, the building was evacuated firefighters were dispatched to fight the fire. it is known that the fire affected the roof of the palace and occurred at the site of repair work. it is unknown how far the fire spread. versailles was erected during the reign of louis. the palace is considered one. 58% of respondents definitely support the idea , 28 rather support it. obviously, now the authorities have not noticed to give the military carte blanche to open fire on migrants. currently, four episodes related to the use of weapons on the border are being investigated, one last year, three recent ones. in all cases

, the soldiers who opened fire were not in danger. it is characteristic that charges were brought against only one episode. all in all. and now security forces face virtually nothing for shooting at migrants. now, with the support of the people, the military can allow anything. lithuanian media report that a military camp where soldiers of the german brigade will be stationed will be built 20 km from the belarusian border. an air corridor for civilians previously ran here. ships, it was considered necessary to move it. the military town occupied the territory of several village cemeteries. the authorities promise to maintain access here for local residents, but this is hardly realistic, after all. this includes army training grounds; a ghost town will be built to train german and lithuanian soldiers; combat skills will be practiced here in residential areas. the total area of ​​the facility is about 170 km, and the perimeter is about 100 km. we will have many shooting ranges for small arms exercises, a tank range, and also

something like a small city that could accommodate a platoon of soldiers. the military base will accept. thousands of bundesferen military personnel, some of them have already arrived in lithuania, the thoroughness of the creators of the military camp and its location raise concerns: the soldiers are probably being trained to conduct offensive operations, otherwise for what other purposes might they need the ability to fight in a residential area ? a meeting of the foreign ministers of the brix member states is taking place in nizhny novgorod. a number of countries friendly to russia are taking part in the form without entering. he noted belarus, does not accept the transformation of the international financial system into a weapon against those who disagree with western policies. in this regard , minsk is a supporter of the creation of independent mechanisms for mutual settlements and interbank cooperation. it is also necessary to expand the use of national currencies. in this regard, it is difficult to overestimate the role of

the new brix development bank. it allows for the mobilization of resources to achieve sustainable development goals. by the way, the belarusian application to join brix can be considered as a priority, about the desire türkiye is also planning to join the association. delaying the implementation of union projects reduces the efficiency of using the budget of the union state. chairman of state control vasily gerasimov stated this following the results of the joint board of the state control committee of belarus and the accounts chamber of russia. the agenda included summing up the results of the audit of the implementation of the budget of the union state for 2023. working at the meeting. our film crew, yuri shevchuk is contacting us. he will tell you what the inspectors paid attention to following the inspection. good evening, colleagues, a meeting of state control employees with their colleagues from the accounts chamber of russia, a traditional event, where specialists from the two countries can compare notes and discuss the most pressing issues on

the agenda. for example, today the emphasis was on summing up. checking the budget of the union state and union programs. the results of the audit showed that financial discipline in the execution of the budget of the union state is increasing, such dynamics have been noted over the past few years. let's listen to what the chairman of the state control vasily gerasimov said as a result of the meeting, as well as a comment to journalists, the accuracy of the reporting, and we did this through a joint audit of our two supreme audit bodies.

from the programs of the union state of 35 activities, of course, reserves exist, and these reserves, they provide serious potential for the future, this current year our efforts will be concentrated both on improving the regulations governing the budget process and on eliminating these shortcomings, and the main thing is that we came to the conclusion that we need to do this constantly throughout the year. in order to avoid stating at the end of the year that something has not been accomplished, two events in particular were noted that, in our opinion, were unjustifiably prolonged.

departments of belarus and russia signed the final control documents of the joint meeting based on the results of the inspection. in total, the meeting lasted about 45 minutes. we will tell you in more detail about what else was discussed in the panorama. colleagues. thank you, it was yuri shevchuk with details of the boards of the state control commission of belarus and the counting. chambers of russia. cuba and belarus are not just partners, long-time friends. we jointly resist the sanctions pressure of hegemony. prime minister roman golovchenko stated this at a meeting with the deputy prime minister

of this country. in minsk govana pursue an independent foreign and domestic policy that is aimed at developing and improving the lives of peoples. recently, bilateral dialogue has intensified at all levels. last year the heads of government met we discussed areas of cooperation twice and substantively. the prime minister of belarus proposes to develop a counter mechanism. directly projects that relate to joint investments in the production sector, i believe that

the preparatory stages in the discussion of these projects have taken too long, we have probably already done enough familiarization with each other’s capabilities and needs, and it is necessary to put an end to this issue and begin to work specifically. joint projects in medicine, industrial cooperation, interaction in scientific field, the main direction of cooperation for the coming years between belarus and cuba. they are officially of advanced age, but with their deeds and cheerfulness they prove that they are young in spirit. an activist of the veteran movement of the gomel region visited the palace of independence today. on the promenade through the galleries, a delegation of six dozen people, leaders of production, honored workers of the industry, people who have devoted more than one decade to their work. they monitor daily. news and today they themselves ended up in television footage. so back in the morning in the fireplace room they discussed cooperation between belarus and azerbaijan. excursionists also have photos here as souvenirs. and in dozens of iconic

interiors, where the history of our country is written, and not only. we have been waiting for this event for a very long time, because as has already been said, it is not easy to get here, and of course, it is clear that it is not easy, because we have found ourselves in the center of the political life of our state. we are proud that this particular palace is here. they did even more, they made it even more beautiful, very beautiful, i really liked it, i’m glad to come here, with my own eyes we looked at all this beauty, there’s not much that ’s on tv, it’s one thing to see, look at all these things with your own eyes, but it’s worth a lot, so we’re very happy, this will be great for us for the

rest of our lives, well, our dream has come true , their ticket to the palace of independence was decades of responsible work, active social activities and the patriotic education of youth, which they are engaged in now; in total, the veteran movement throughout the country unites more than 2 million people. at these moments it's really hot at the dynamo stadium. the third working semester has opened in belarus. more than 500 student fighters take part in the celebration.
