the entire european union led by the united states. we know the true goals, we know who is behind every provocation on the state border of belarus, behind every terrorist threat to the civilian population, we know, because we work proactively. we are more vigilant than ever, we have learned all the lessons from the beginning the great patriotic war, we have only one teacher. our history is the history

of winners. the level of defense capability of the union state is higher than ever, the belarusian leader emphasized. and today it’s time to confirm this, this is a recognition of mastery of... our sovereignties, we are all united by the great victory over a common enemy, the countries of the hitler alliance, it teaches us to defend the world by any means of deterrence, testing in

a joint regional grouping of troops of belarus, russia, the first for our country the training of non-strategic nuclear forces showed that the level of defense capability. our union is higher than ever, and this is a guarantee that our voice, the voice of our allies and partners, which sounds in defense of a multipolar, just world, will be heard, our parade will take place into a peaceful future. the main guarantor of the country's military security is the armed forces, belarus maintains them in constant combat readiness, equips them with modern weapons, strength and power in the parade, a glorified formation on the march. for courage and heroism during the great patriotic, they were awarded honorary titles and military orders. 36 infantry parade units, in the same formation with the belarusians , strategic allies from azerbaijan, kazakhstan, kyrgyzstan, russia, tajikistan

today’s parade is not aimed at any demonstration of a threat to the west, in no way, we have never threatened anyone and are not threatening anyone, today the most, let's say, were demonstrated. security action and i can say with confidence that belarusian

drones are distinguished, firstly, by a wide range of applications, and secondly, they are all based exclusively on domestic solutions. and today, not only military force is important, nothing can break a people united by strong spiritual unity, a people who have a common historical memory and absolute commitment to traditional values, a people who at the genetic level do not accept aggression.

all morning, you are crazy, always when watching

such moments, yes, goosebumps appear, yes, for me, as for many belarusians, for the majority, this is truly a great day, the day of our freedom, the day of our memory, respect for the people who gave life, we are proud of belarus, for today’s parade we are very grateful, of course, to our president of the republic of belarus.

the president was asked questions about independence, the union of belarus and russia, and the most difficult period of maintaining sovereignty in his thirty-year presidential career. day independence, day of liberation of belarus, 80 years and 30 years with you, now is a very difficult period of maintaining independence, the importance of this independence, why do we need to convey this essence of independence, the essence of the liberation of belarus to the young people now? independence, because without it there can be no state, and if there is no state, then there is no

us, we are simply slaves without it, so this is the most important thing to preserve it, well, as you can see, we are trying together with you and that- it turns out that yours was constantly wanted, like they say, to bend your democracy, which you spoke about, to change it, to force you to enter into some other unions, why is it with russia that such an amazing, independent union is obtained? that russia and we have common values, common plans, common goals, with what other state do we have similar relations, after all, it was not for nothing that we were so much in one... for 30 years, what was the most difficult period of preservation independence? the most difficult period for a real president is the high trust of the people. every day in the morning, in the evening at night

you wake up in a cold sweat and think, they trusted you, how not to let you down? this is the hardest thing for a real president. let me note that after visiting the parade, the military delegations continued their work. we discussed current issues of cooperation in the military sphere in the interests of strengthening the national armed forces and the safe development of the commonwealth countries. a meeting of the council of defense ministers of the cis member states is taking place these days in minsk. against the backdrop of an aggravated international situation , a substantive discussion of immediate tasks took place military cooperation and prospects. development until 2030. particular attention to the development of unified communication systems and air defense control. the coalition of western states is deliberately following a course towards the degradation of relations. it is progressively pushing through aggressive narratives against the commonwealth states. as a result

, the eastern european region today has formed a number of challenges and threats in the military sphere, which are in conditions. actual dismantling of the regional security architecture may lead to open armed confrontation, up to and including the use of nuclear weapons. the collective west is making significant efforts aimed at destroying integration processes in the cis space. in fact, an ideological war is being waged against all countries of the commonwealth; attempts are being made to destroy the existing friendly relations, as between individual ones.

the commonwealth has declared 2025 the year of the eightieth anniversary of victory in the great patriotic war, the year of peace and unity in the fight against nazism. the lessons of this war remain relevant, and the main one is that the country must have equipped and well-trained armed forces, and are determined to develop and deepen interaction between the ministries of defense of the cis countries, in all major respects. following the meeting, council decisions were signed, which are aimed at further developing cooperation in the military sphere and strengthening the combat capabilities of friendly armies. the experience of conducting combat operations in modern conditions will be included in the system of combat training of troops, approaches to organizing countering the use of drones, experience in performing tasks for demining

objects and areas during a special military operation, as well as the practice of the ministry of defense of belarus in... north korea and thailand, india, morocco, algeria, singapore, sri lanka, the philippines, nicaragua, malawi , pakistan's list is huge. among the first, brotherly russia, president vladimir putin noted that our countries continue to develop relations of strategic partnership to strengthen the bonds of alliance that connect the two states. it is important that the bonds of friendship

in some countries they are starting to... how to level it out, this is very important to remember , to remember who gave us such a life, beautiful cities, there have never seen such troubles, brilliant words, yes from the heart, wait, come in girls, otherwise my parents won’t take pictures on their phones, but let's wave together to the whole family country, these are the girls and such a family, you can wave as a souvenir, that’s it and we’re leaving, happy holidays, that’s it, thank you very much, rest, and we’ll finish this story a little here, and before... we’ll take a look from the museum , let’s bring a short commentary from the honored artist of the republic of belarus to your attention. today is a great holiday, both for me, for my family, and for the entire

belarusian people. uh, we also celebrate the eightieth anniversary of the liberation of belarus from the nazi-german invaders, this is our favorite holiday, as it is always present there are many concert venues, and with our creativity, with our art we can cover the whole of minsk, all the people of our beloved, dear belarus, well, these are the words, i think, any words with whom we communicate here sound like this, let’s, by the way, grisha, let’s see this girl, so young and small, is once again given to us by fate on television, well, in principle, i think, we can somehow... define ourselves as a symbol of our native republic, this is such a growing generation, well, now i’ll ask the directors to put it briefly, i apologize already airtime i eat a lot, prepared video, please note, dear tv viewers, that today we really have here near the museum of the great patriotic war, but inside on the sidelines, it is clear that the excitement of the guests of minsk today is just darkness, everyone wants to see and touch history, this time let us remember once again what an important day we are celebrating today, today is the independence day of the republic of belarus, of course,

the important history of the museum is the gallery. sovitsky hero of belarus, who was the first artist to receive this highest state award, i think, all the horrors of the war, all the horrors of this terrible time, any and all guests can look at this art gallery today, once again understand how, how important it is that this does not happen again, so now i will ask you to return me here, as i understand it, i’m back in the frame, and once again at the end of this small inclusion, albeit somewhat chaotic, as some editors believe, i want to congratulate our native country on such an important day, independence day, all... wonderful colleagues, over to you, thank you, andrey, see you in the next issue, and today our president went on a working visit to kazakhstan, it will take place on july 3 and 4, plane number one has already taken off for astana.

the summit of the shanghai cooperation organization will be held in the capital of kazakhstan . alexander lukashenko will take part in it. it is expected that on the sidelines of the summit the belarusian leader will hold a number of meetings and negotiations with foreign colleagues. the international forum includes a meeting of the council of heads of state, sco members, as well as a meeting in the sco plus format with the participation of leaders observer states, honored guests and heads of international organizations.

broadcasts and speaks out on all international platforms so that this is not one-sided sanctions pressure, and thus it would contribute, including to economic issues. it is planned that alexander lukashenko, in his speech at the summit, will touch upon the most significant areas in the work of the organization of contributions that belarus is ready to make to solve common problems. participants in the meeting of the council of heads

of state. will discuss further issues improving the work of the integration association in order to deepen multilateral interaction in the new conditions, will consider current international and regional issues in the sco region. it is expected that the ostanino declaration will be adopted at the meeting, as well as more than two dozen different decisions and statements that relate to different areas of cooperation. president of belarus alexander lukashenko on the eve of the shanghai cooperation organization summit. stan gave an interview to an international news agency kas-inform. they talked about the potential for integration in general and the opportunities that membership in the shanghai family gives belarus, as well as global and food security and bilateral cooperation with kazakhstan. genuine and indivisible global security in the 21st century must be built through broad dialogue without discrimination and on terms acceptable to all. you cannot

demand security for yourself. ignoring the safety of others. the sco by its nature is an organization for creation; it is not aimed against all comers. this is what is in demand in the world today and fully corresponds to the spirit of our policy. the minsk site has more than once become a place for negotiations on issues of peaceful settlement. we consistently invite all countries and international organizations to dialogue,” noted alexander lukashenko. our president is convinced that the sco is not just an international organization - it is a strategic perspective. most importantly, together we clearly demonstrate to the world that there is an alternative international platform, other centers of power where the voice is heard and respected without superiority or domination. the interest of all states without exception. belarus is grateful for the support, high appreciation and recognition by states and members of our contribution to the activities of the organization. we understand all the responsibility and are determined to work actively and productively in our new

status. let me remind you that belarus has been participating in the show since 2010. at the beginning, our country was a dialogue partner, and then received observer status. it is expected that at the sco summit belarus will join the integration into quality. direct participant. the sco, like brix, are platforms with the help of which a new world order is being formed. this is an alliance of countries that pursue an independent policy and want to get rid of american hegemony in the world economy. and in fact, belarus speaks here on behalf of europe. this opinion was shared with our channel by farhad ibragimov, a political scientist and teacher at the ruden faculty of economics. belarus, it must be said, has long ago, probably since the mid -nineties, proclaimed a course towards an independent foreign policy, this the course was set not by anyone, but by the president of belarus alexander lukashenko, who even then understood that the world cannot be unipolar, it must be multipolar, and accordingly we are seeing today

the transformation of the sco from a once regional organization to a more global one, firstly , we see with you the increasing role of other regional players in eurasia who lay claim to more global leadership, these are , of course, china, india, as well as iran, and of course, today the factor of belarus in the sco will be very significant, because thus, the sco will be limited not only to the eurasian regions, precisely from the point of view of the eastern narrative, but also to belarus as a european country, a true european country, and i would like to note that it will also add its own certain plus and make its own adjustments within the framework of security throughout the eurasian space, that is , belarus will speak here on behalf of europe, and its influence, of course, its role. growing yes has a very colossal significance, because belarus, through the efforts of its diplomacy, thanks to its independent foreign policy, thanks to its course, yes, which was proclaimed by the belarusian leader, it was just able to build pragmatic consistent

strategic relations with all sco members, so here, of course, the sco is the very platform where belarus will be able to feel comfortable and where belarus, for its part, can bring very serious proposals to strengthen security for the entire region, security issues are like... belarus belongs to this series without any exceptions. belarus celebrates the sacred date in unison. we are transported to mogilev. here, squares and parks have become concert venues, and fairs are held. my colleague andrey yastrebov will now share the festive atmosphere. andrey, good day, happy holiday. good afternoon, minsk, happy holiday, independence day belarus, we are now on buynichesky field, it is here that, according to tradition , the ceremonial events started. on july 3, back in 1941, the legendary defense of mogilev began here, when the red army soldiers together

with the townspeople, inspired by the feat of the heroes of the brest fortress, held back the german army for 23 long days. today, thousands of flowers lay at the foot of the chapel, where the defenders of their native land rest. the memory of the heroes was honored with a minute of silence. “today, like no other nation, we remember the feat that our people accomplished, the years of the patriotic war, and if we forget about their contribution to the victory, we will not have the future we strive for, i look at the sky, i think what beauty, we go to bed in peace and wake up in peace, god bless our dad, every belarusian every day puts a piece of himself into what he does, into the development of our country." we must appreciate everything that we have. the holiday today united all corners of mogilev. thematic screenings in cinemas, interactive platforms and photo zones in parks and squares. the re-enactors club launched an exhibition on the site of the ethnography museum, presenting models of weapons, military equipment and equipment. it is the existence

of an independent sovereign republic of belarus for more than 30 years that allows us to realize all ours. interests and rights, look to the future, make plans. therefore, this holiday is the foundation of the existence of our country and the future. so, in fact, in all areas of people’s lives, we live calmly, this is our pride and victory. i also draw a competition of belarus for children on unity square, in podnikoliye park, a citywide family holiday. there will also be a master class for artisans and foot courts with treats. the main action awaits everyone in the evening on the square of glory; alexander dobronravov, a famous singer and composer. studio. thank you, andrey yastrebov, about the celebrations in mogilev. a special atmosphere

reigns today in places of military glory and memorials throughout the minsk region. people have been bringing flowers to the mound of glory since the morning, among them are representatives of the federation of trade unions and the leadership of the central region, led by governor alexander turchin. our film crew is working near kurgan and we give the floor to alexey kondratenko. alexey, tell us about the atmosphere. the mood is solemn and upbeat now, as you can see, there are a lot of visitors here, the mood is even by the way, it’s also an anniversary, because the memorial complex itself, the mound of glory , is 55 these days, on this occasion, this place has been significantly updated, modernized, the mound has literally become younger, of course, traditions have remained unchanged on such significant dates as on july 3, flowers are laid at the foot of the memorial , among those... numerous belarusians and guests of our country who paid tribute

to the heroes and events of the great patriotic war and representatives of the leadership of the minsk region, let's see how it was, there should be such memorials, there should be such complexes so that people come here... remember what happened here 80 years ago, we tried to renovate the mound of glory today, you see what has been done, the lower platforms, i will make another announcement, we, together with the leadership of the ministry of defense, are doing some work so that today our mound will be replenished with new exhibits in the near future, the mound of glory is updated, we really like it, it’s festive. the atmosphere is good, the people are cheerful, everyone is happy, joyful,

today a fountain opened on the mound of glory, and this further decorated the festive and a solemn day. the territory of the memorial itself is a large interactive area with thematic installations, a partisan school, a headquarters, a rest stop, and a separate gift for...

studio, thank you, alexey kondratenko about the events at the mound of glory. we will not stop saying thank you to the heroes for the peaceful sky, thanking those who revived belarus after the war. thanks to our great-grandfathers and grandfathers for an independent strong country. this is the day that emphasizes our right, the right of our country, our people, to decide for themselves how the way for him to move. it seems to me that this is an absolutely normal path for the development of any free state, a path whose goal is the well-being of its own people, not to the detriment of those peoples who live around it, the policy that is being implemented by our president, the government, just shows that we want one thing, we want normality, peace, all over the earth, around us, happiness for everyone.

presidential power, that is, we went our own way, built our own unique political system, we a strong president, and parliament, and we have preserved the tradition of the all-belarusian people's assembly, which is already a constitutional body. for every belarusian , this is a sacred day, because the formed political, economic and spiritual basis allows us to look to the past with pride and look forward to the future with confidence. what previous generations created and passed on to us, we must pass on

to the next generations. and as long as we remember and pass on the historical truth to the new generation, the west will have no chance rewrite history. give free rein to fascism, that’s what the belgian political scientist and publicist, valery dvoinikov, says. it all starts from school. for example, western schools, in western schools at the moment, history lessons as such do not exist. my children here in belgium go to school, they don’t learn history, they learn at least local history, that is, regional history, at least national history, but in no case international. it is said in europe, in europe it is said that the liberator is america, of course everywhere, that is, the role of the ussr is not quoted at the moment, fascism in europe, it exists, it is subcutaneous, but it still exists today, and it manifests itself very strongly in a situation like today's

war, indeed, they do not see it, they do not want to see it, because that they are ready to do anything, to destroy those states that fought against fascism now... gradually we see in all elections in the european union which parties are extremists, which parties are progressing, which are fascists, that says it all, europe is becoming more and more on the side of fascism, and i really hope that this will not happen and that, after all , people will start voting for those parties, i don’t believe me, they exist, which defend the rights of citizens, yes, the power is in the truth, we cannot be broken, this so, well, let’s go straight... now we’re going to the stela minsk, the city of hero, our visiting studio is located in the center of the main festive events, ilona valynets and andrey sych work there. colleagues, good afternoon, happy holiday, we are sure that you are ready, we know that the audience is now in for an interesting interview, introduce the guest, please, hello, colleagues,

happy holiday to everyone, the atmosphere is simply gorgeous, as fate would have it, elona and i became the most devoted viewers, at least for the last 40 minutes of... our holiday broadcast, well , despite this, it seems to me that the weather today is simply perfect, not very cold, not very hot, in our on-site studio, which is in the center of the capital, in general the most comfortable conditions in any weather, definitely, well, again, not as a reproach, but television does not convey that atmosphere, to unfortunately, unfortunately, which is happening around us, those who have not yet decided to go for a walk, not to go with their family , definitely go, because near the tv, of course, it’s great, we are grateful to you for this, but...

with the shares of the republic of belarus and the russian federation, here are two new programs that provide the proper level of toll

support; modern investment in the level of infrastructure that guarantees a high level of combat readiness and combat effectiveness of a joint group deployed on the territory of the republic of belarus; up to twenty programs have been defined sixth year, well, let’s just say then and expect it right away. belarus are state customers of programs, as well as implementers, as well as controllers, just recently at a parliamentary meeting, i had the right to report to deputies and senators at the parliamentary meeting of the union of belarus and russia about what new programs are being prepared, by the way, i will say that in border this year. belarus russia under the auspices of the unified border committee of the union state, maybe even few people know that this one operates and

operates successfully, another one is being implemented program - border security, also serious money, more than 2 billion rubles, so everything that can be done in the format of a union state to ensure the proper level of defense capability, which does not threaten anyone, as alexander grigoryevich lukashenko said very clearly yesterday. under the heading defend the fatherland, i ask you to focus, among other things, on those photographs, modern photographs, you see, they gave here

a copy of president lukashenko’s decree on the establishment of the medal for 80 years of liberation of belarus, here we naturally show what as celebrated on may 9 in belarus, if you look at the following pages, this is also a very symbolic photo of vladimir.

today we walked along the clean, nice, beautiful streets of minsk and a lot of citizens, a lot of guests of the capital of belarus, people to some extent in such a carefree atmosphere, and i thought that this is a great asset that our older generations have gained, now to realize that this value is definitely due to us and...

i then, following in my father’s footsteps, came to the division in the railway troops and served more than one year at the newspaper, this is a special

work for me, and of course, this is not destiny. only one fyodor mizintsev, this is the fate of millions of soldiers, officers who could not do otherwise, so if we are now talking about operation bogration, where 2,400,000 soldiers, sergeants, officers, generals and marshals took part, then you have to think about it, 740,000 were wounded and died; 178,000 never saw their loved ones again.

uplift and family unity are feelings that will remain with us forever, with you, with the residents of mensk, with the townspeople, our guests, thank you, thank you very much, colleagues, that’s all we have for now, but we will definitely return to the live broadcast, so once again, happy holidays, the studio has the floor, thank you, ilona and andrey, we don’t say goodbye again, we are waiting for you on the air, and we pass the floor marina romanovskaya, my colleague works in vitebsk, where the main celebrations take place on victory square, people continue to bring flowers to the eternal flame. marina, happy independence day, tell us about the holiday atmosphere in the city. vitebsk joins the congratulations on independence day, people come to victory square families, today it is especially solemn here;

they have installed themed ones especially for the holiday.

awaits residents and guests of the city in the evening. studio, over to you. thank you, marina romanovskaya, about the celebrations in vitebsk. and this is gomel, and even rain is not an obstacle to the festivities. the main point is the central square. the events started with a solemn procession. a column of thousands marched along the main highway of the regional center. veterans.

the republic of belarus is very significant, which we always defend, day and night, it is our homeland. our grandfathers and great-grandfathers stood for freedom and independence, so it is our sacred duty to honor the memory. many came to the holiday to see the parade of equipment. and there is something to admire. belarusians are working glory, and also widely and brightly celebrate the main holiday of belarusian statehood. yes. but independence came at a bloody price, every third person died in belarus, and today the memory of the fallen was honored by the chairman of the council of the republic natalya kachanova, members of the presidium and employees of the secretariat of the council of the republic.

they laid wine and flowers at the masyukovshchina memorial complex. here was the shtalak-352 concentration camp, where the nazis destroyed more than 80 thousand prisoners of war and civilians. 80 years later, fascism is again raising its head and the future of our country, its independence. today it depends on each of us, noted natalya kachanova. the time is now, when the geopolitical situation is dividing the world, in fact, and we understand that in this situation we must be more united than ever in remembering our history. the older you get, the more you understand the significance of what was done by older generations, when millions and millions of people died defending freedom and independence.

today, people all over the patriotic war are bringing flowers and wreaths to the memorials of the great country. to remember the fallen defenders of the fatherland. well, of course, the most spectacular thing today is the military parade in minsk. behind him , stella minsk is a hero city. afterwards, thousands of belarusians and guests of the capital watched as the equipment moved to the places of deployment. both participants and spectators were united by pride in the country and its achievements. unprecedented. and the spirit of patriotism and unity, gratitude to veterans, so everyone did not hide their emotions. throughout the entire route of the equipment, belarusians lined up along the avenue intact families and even those who are about to become mothers.

near the republican scientific and practical center, mother and child, representatives of the fair half of humanity, were able to watch the passage of the column, and i really want as many patriots as possible to be born in the country, like this little belarusian. may belarus prosper and... grow so strong year after year, with our country, i am fit, and friendly, sincere people, emotions are overwhelming, very beautiful, wonderful and large-scale, the strength and power of our army is shown, i really liked it, we specially came with another city in honor of this holiday, we have always gone to parades with our parents since childhood, and we want that in the future, in the future, our children will always do the same...
