athlete is recognized as the best hockey player of the 20th century according to the international hockey federation. sergey, i think vladislav trits. absolutely right, vladislav trits. watch the intellectual sports project "game" head" on our tv channel. when you are in nature, it seems that the world has plunged into silence, all the sounds of bustle have disappeared, only the song of the wind specially caresses your ears, so that you look around and understand how quiet it is all around, whenever possible, go to nature. go to the forests, fields,
8:03 pm
8:04 pm
8:05 pm
just be afraid of your reluctances, that was practically the motto, probably, if you look at all my career movements since graduating from law school, i have... based on the instructions of the president, the curator of the diplomatic line, the president sent me to the sports path, wherever again my father really didn’t want me to ever
8:06 pm
get into it, that is, he himself, being the minister of sports, he always characterized her as very intriguing, quarrelsome, so he always said that my son would not go into the sports industry, but i got there, well... then the presidential administration back, when i had already gotten used to the fact that there is no better than sports diplomacy, when in the presidential administration i became involved in the most serious issues of the activities of the head of our state, it turned out that in his opinion, it means i could do better again where in the ministry of foreign affairs, which , frankly speaking, i didn’t even think about as a workplace in the near future, and certainly didn’t dream of, so here, rather, be afraid of your reluctances, but of your own kind of complexes, that’s what i got ...explores my whole life. from the point of view of what period today is for diplomats, well, i’ll say that it’s quite the opposite, even this period is diplomatic, because you see how painfully the international agenda is going through this
8:07 pm
transformation from unipolar to multipolar world. and even americans today no longer doubt that the world is moving towards this multipolarity and it is only a matter of time how long it can be maintained. which was, everyone understands that something needs to be done with international organizations that are called upon to deal with issues of global security and stability, but they don’t do this, so we need to somehow agree, regardless of the size of countries, economic potential with each other, that we need to enter into cross-border cooperation, good
8:08 pm
cooperation, this is better than any other war girl, in fact, you see how shuttle diplomacy today has turned into the main work of diplomats in many countries. that is, trips to each other, international forums, holding conferences, russia and i put forward our proposals for signing, that is, a charter, multipolarity and diversity, relevant things, you are our chinese side, peace initiatives in ukraine, reform issues, today it’s all simple is seething, therefore, from the point of view of a diplomatic worker in general, who wants to prove himself, and who wants to take part in something so eventful, today is just the time to work, well... to the question of such a militarized thing, i will answer with the expression of gromyk, who said: “better 10 years of negotiations than one day of war." today there are 10 years of negotiations, and as our president says, it is better that there are more negotiations and longer than, strictly speaking, there were even some
8:09 pm
hints that some kind of armed conflicts would be drawn into our country. of course, no one needs war, at least at least, belarusians definitely don’t need it. but you remembered your father, then this question is: am i... in my career or did i still have to constantly prove my own self-sufficiency? the question is very interesting, i will say that , of course, if my father had continued to live in the positions he held then, or remained in the active political life
8:10 pm
of the country, there probably would not have been minister rozhenkov today, because his death was when i was only 24 years when i first came to the ministry of foreign affairs, having worked there only... 2 years, then of course, it had a very strong influence on my life guidelines, and if before that it was really possible to go through life, relying on power, in my opinion it was very... said, all my movements, this were his decisions, and without even asking for my opinion, because somewhere even
8:11 pm
in a fatherly way he led me further in life, taking into account his, probably to a greater extent, i think, those personal contacts, he often talks about this with my father, that is, it was he who unexpectedly remained the one for me a person who, at some point later, seeing that something could probably come of me, began to prepare me somewhere, maybe for this position.
8:12 pm
they all went then to the nascent cooperative movements, various firms, private corporations, some went abroad and so on, but practically no one went to the civil service, so then it was not entirely true, now i think so that if a child a civil servant wants to go into public service, this should only be welcomed, this means that in the family he was given the right feeling of patriotism, in fact, when...
8:13 pm
or daughters, that is, you can only push him towards something, advise something, that’s it, but pulling him, pulling him through all the steps of the career ladder, i’m absolutely sure, it’s impossible, otherwise he will lose himself at some point, when there is no such support, he will be left alone with his problems, it turns out that he cannot cope with these problems himself, then it’s a tricky question, but i can’t help but ask, in your last post you largely determined well. a number of ministries, that’s why today we should accept our own guidelines for implementation,
8:14 pm
but on a different level, yes, you wouldn’t want to soften these demands right now , but since already, well, i’ll also answer this trick with revelation, yes, well, not so much probably built how the ministry should work, but how they should structure their work based on... based on the tasks of the instructions that the president sets, this is the absolute truth, and of course, i had to ask very harshly from the ministry of foreign affairs, including , but what's the big one? the difference is that when you are in the administration above you, the head of the administration is the president, in fact, you understand this pulse that beats in the palace of independence, you pass it on, as the president says, so that you feel the rhythm and tension, this is one thing, when you sit down it means the ministry. it turns out that your pulse is being passed on to you from the presidential administration, from the council of ministers, from the council of ministers, one
8:15 pm
deputy prime minister, a second deputy prime minister, a third, the prime minister, and so on and so forth, and here you begin to understand that there is too much these, probably, pulses, and of course, i would like a little less of this tension, because i’m a charged person, i went through a kind of school near the president, i worked in the administration for 18 years, then maybe i would have enough tension only with the presidential administration. but some people with whom i communicated, probably earlier, horizontally, let’s call it that, now want to show me that probably, after all, the pulse is not only from me once...
8:16 pm
and not emotionally, but louder creatively, with interesting ideas, interesting proposals and some very non-standard decisions that our friends will accept with pleasure and which will puzzle our, let’s call them, enemies or ill-wishers, who will find it difficult to cope with some of our foreign policy projects and ideas; secondly, of course, the strengthening demands on our... embassy and on the foreign ministry unit to carry out the tasks and instructions set by the president and the government, because, of course, the rhythm of external trade, external economic relations, political relations, it should be more manifested through the foreign ministry, and today, when we have allocated certain powers to develop relations with organizations, some countries, to
8:17 pm
members of the government, there are ministers, heads of organizations, of course it is important that everything ... the foreign ministry is the coordinator of this work remained, still concentrated on this work, besides, you know, i was always somehow always a little bit obsessed with one theme, that we seem to live in the same space, see the same events, but we don’t see how the president’s proposal suddenly reacts to them, so let’s try to do this, and we’re already starting to move, preparing some kind of preparation, which means we’ve found... a good idea and then, in general , we’re developing it, i’m right away with mine to my colleagues, as soon as i came to the foreign ministry and i said why we always go, well, just a step or two behind the president, yes, of course, the president naturally feels many things much more sensitive than we do, but we will never get away from that, that there will be instructions, there will be expectations, but we are yes, so that the president can see,
8:18 pm
that the foreign ministry has an understanding of the current agenda, and we are also not a little cut off from the country. this is mit, and not vice versa, well, let’s talk a little about the rhythm, since you already touched on, but literally a week after your appointment you were already received by the minister of foreign affairs of china, before that in astana you already talked with the heads of mit russia and kazakhstan, this is about this shake, whether the rhythm has started too frantically, well, in many ways, i will say, this rhythm was
8:19 pm
set before me, by sergei fedorovich aleynik, in fact, i am very grateful to him, because many things that today... i have in my work schedule of meetings and travel contacts, all this was directly worked out by him with the foreign ministry team, but i am very grateful, and indeed i further strengthened this dynamics, because this is exactly how you will prove yourself in the first days , weeks, months of work, how you make acquaintances, how you position yourself in relationships with your colleagues, largely depends on how smoothly or not smoothly you enter this community. or something about foreign policy, which we really need today, and of course, for me, as a young minister from the point of view of appointment, it was very important to carry out this kind of meetings, conversations, conversations, well, with very serious diplomats, let’s do this with the main allies, with the main allies, yes, if there is more to this add a meeting with the minister
8:20 pm
of foreign affairs of india, if we add more meetings so brief, albeit short, but... with our colleagues from the central asian republics, sco member countries, then in principle, in literally 10 days i covered acquaintance and some kind of decision some issues, indeed , our closest allies, in fact, this is a great help in further work, well , i can even say special gratitude, considering that this is how my colleague from kazakhstan, in fact, as soon as the appointment of the rebel took place, was immediately organized. with lavrov, because i had
8:21 pm
a telephone conversation with him, literally on the second day after the appointment, it was very important , but i also can’t help but highlight the meeting as a topic, we worked it out very well, that’s it of course, the first official conversation upon arrival in astana, well, i can’t help but pay tribute to the wisdom and general conceptuality of the approaches of my colleague from... china, mr. ivan, and of course, i was very amazed, the meeting, instead of the short time planned there, 3 lasted for an hour, and it was in a country residence, a government residence, which had never happened, and all this was confirmed after my appointment, so, of course, i built this rhythm for myself, based on what happened before, but i, frankly speaking, , this is very grateful, but the president noted that you are not new to diplomatic circles. worked in poland in israel. i’ll probably start with some familiar neighboring countries. on tuesday, latvia banned
8:22 pm
cars with belarusian license plates from entering its territory. poland creates constant obstacles at the border for our heavy trucks. lithuania is generally concerned about the belarusian food basket for those crossing the border. meade once promised that he would give it. its asymmetrical answer, so what answer does mit give? ministry foreign affairs, a proposal was worked out, together with those interested, all the details were discussed and submitted for consideration to the president, here is a proposal on visa-free entry into the territory of belarus for citizens of a number of states, this proposal was supported by the president, and i am glad to our colleagues and partners from eu countries to report that from the 19th 8 am, a new regime is introduced for citizens of the european union countries and other european
8:23 pm
countries for which a visa regime was previously in force, a visa-free procedure for entry through railways checkpoints to the republic of belarus for up to 30 days. this visa regime will be valid until december 31 , 2024. as you know, our regime is valid for citizens of poland, lithuania and latvia, that is , when our closest neighbors are closing their doors and making all sorts of obstacles to the development of cross-border cooperation and contacts between people , which from my point of view is a gross violation of all existing conventions within the framework of the osce, the council of europe, the european union, we, however, on the contrary, show our openness and desire show your country to the international community, come, see, work.
8:24 pm
8:25 pm
no matter how they put on a good face on a bad game, won’t poland turn into a polish dead end of the silk road? you know, a very interesting question, i think that i know poland a little, i understand, i’ll tell you another secret, but it may... not a secret for certain people, for poles it’s definitely not a secret, so for you and for the viewers of the program too, my grandmother was maria genrikhovna, and my mother was bronislava frantsovna, on that line, which means that it was just, let’s say, the polish part of my gene pool, so when i say that my grandmother wore red until her last days church and prayed in polish, you will understand that i, too, in fact, understand in general what the polish people, the polish nation, are. hard work,
8:26 pm
such a rather sharp emotionality, at the same time very tough such a character , women are very bright in themselves, therefore, honestly speaking, i imagine everything, speaking about poland, i would like to say that poland will never act to the detriment of its interests, what they are doing today means only one thing, that it corresponds to their interests for today, at the moment, does this mean there are some political things in poland that allow this? attitude towards belarus, it means that somewhere with someone they are playing this trump card of our border and this trade turnover, well, i want to say that they do not have blackmail regarding the transit of chinese goods it turned out completely from the word, no matter how they preened there, otherwise these runaways would not agree with them. in fact, it was our initiative; during my trip we handed over a number of documents there, which means we explained in great detail the nature of things at the border.
8:28 pm
are not needed, then we need to talk, and not use the language of an ultimatum to achieve something, we will never agree to this, and i think that the poles who know me also understand that i will be the last one who will advise doing this in their relationship. from the point of view of contacts with china, then this also an attempt to influence us for a clean solution to its polish issues, but there is one thing, that in this way poland shows the entire european union that... here, in this area in economic relations between china and europe, from the point of view of the implementation of those tasks, which the european union seems to have delegated to poland to protect this border, prevent migration, cooperate with belarus on border customs issues, today they are generally setting up the european union by the fact that they do not want to deal with this, trying to benefit from belarus in some way double-sided things, that is, you hang
8:29 pm
double-sided things on double-sided things. but don’t engage in petty blackmail at the expense of the interests of the organization you are in, because these migrants are a really serious problem for the european union today. problems with cargo flow, a serious problem for companies in the european union and chinese partners, but here they decided to make everyone hostages, and i think that as soon as they see that this does not work, then figuratively speaking, this topic will go somewhere they will be forced to engage still cooperate. with us and let me remind you that the president made them an offer, we are waiting for them in belarus, we will show them everything, tell them everything, talk, if they have any doubts, any comments, we are ready to listen to it, but we are ready to work, understanding that on this side there is a serious national polish minority with whom they would like to maintain relations, on the other side there is the belarusian one, but with such steps they are acting in violation of all...
8:30 pm
norms, rules, good neighborliness of all osce conventions and standards, council of europe and so on, but today everyone turns a blind eye to this. let's then look at this issue in bilateral relations, and a little from the other side, because it is poland and lithuania, our closest neighbors, that have become a haven for our fugitives, including people who are actually criminals, but love for them has recently began to turn, to put it mildly, into... acceptance, yes, mass refusal in vonge, in lithuania in the same, yes, declaring people a threat to national security, well, numerous relocations under 40% of companies that first left for the same lithuania, they now we’ve left there, what about today, some new diplomatic maneuver, or as in the golden calf, this favorite phrase, yes, another two years, and then they’ll just start beating you,
8:31 pm
like the children of lieutenant schmid. “well, you understand that poland and lithuania really didn’t like the politics or don’t like the politics of our president of our government.” somehow they thought and continue to think somewhere that some other government, another president will be more accommodating in terms of poland and lithuania realizing their interests. what are your interests? of course, poland wants to be more active in the western regions of belarus, like in ukraine. until now, many people there consider it their eastern chairs with lost property, lands there, buildings and so on. of course, they want to play for our main team here.
8:32 pm
national liberation there within the framework of russia, the common empire, the belarusian movement, 100 years ago, they sat down again, started talking about it again, they were immediately hit on the ears, because it absolutely ruins any of these created up to now time, historical paradigms of the existence of the lithuanian state, in fact, i remember, the first president of our official visit to lithuania, it was, in my opinion, ninety- five, in my opinion, ninety-four, ninety-five, probably, our president... signing a friendship treaty, cooperation, several more agreements, about the border, there about the status of some objects, lithuania speaks for all of them, stands, and there, that means, hangs the gabilen of some century, with a coat of arms, that means a chase, where is this tail down, at that time
8:33 pm
8:35 pm
our president constantly sets the task that in these conditions in which we find ourselves today, we must, firstly, carry out our task efficiently, and secondly, we must run as fast as we can to complete it, and of course, we cannot afford the classical diplomacy that has been formed there for years, in some countries for decades and centuries, we are forced to immediately build our external political line, because we are exposed to the very powerful influence of certain... powerful people of this world, let's call the collective west to a greater extent, and of course, taking into account the fact that we are quite seriously losing sales markets, supplies equipment from the point of view of relations with the west, in order to maintain the sustainable development of our
8:36 pm
country, which i spoke about earlier, then through diplomatic instruments we must find a replacement for all this, of course, it’s a pity, because what to look for across three seas from the point of view of optimality. when you have it across the border, it’s a big expense, so they have a need, they have a need, but today this is the only opportunity, because well, our partners’ ability to reach an agreement is beyond the bug.
8:37 pm
40% of the world's population, if we combine the sco with brix, there will already be more than half of the world's population, if we take the sco, in fact, 30% of the industrial production of the whole world, add brix there and we hardly reach 50, and this is all the resource base, based on which we can decide and political, economic, social issues, precisely in that region, well, read all the most famous analysts. this eurasian integration, the eurasian
8:38 pm
space, they all say that it is there that a new center of power and attraction will emerge for the implementation of the most interesting political and economic plans, this is the heart of the world in general, that’s why we are going there, maxim vladimirovich, now in order to to get to the same lithuania or latvia, yes, you have to stand at the border for 30 hours, yes, and minsk beijing, in my opinion, what is 10 hours there, even fewer will fly, well, it turns out for... of us, and not for the state as a whole? that's what? well , what does this organization give to everyone? within the framework of these organizations and the sco and brix , the common approaches of the participating countries are being worked out , and partner observers participate in this, which means to resolve economic issues, social issues, educational issues.
8:39 pm
this is support in international organizations, and i say that within the framework of these organizations we can rely and believe that our partners will not abandon us and will support us, and practice proves this, so this... through russia, through kazakhstan, uzbekistan, afghanistan, afghanistan in this regard, today is already a calm state, i spoke with the minister of foreign affairs of afghanistan, he told me a lot about how seriously trade is going on between these two countries today, and even advised.
8:42 pm
closer even than some of our closest circles earlier, it just so happened that on the thirtieth anniversary of the first presidential elections, yes, the visit of the first ladies of zimbabwe and nigeria to belarus occurred, from the point of view of a diplomat, why is africa interesting to us and why do we india is interesting, since you already remembered about it, well, in fact, i’m just in favor of using... any mechanisms in the implementation of our goals, objectives, in the development of bilateral interaction with countries, that is, even if these are first ladies and informal communication, now, based on the results of the visit of the zimbabwean delegation , a delegation of our women’s union of belarus is planned to go in the coming days, all these formats serve
8:43 pm
only one thing, strengthening relations, interpersonal contacts, on which economic and political. and look at what kind of independent policy african countries have begun to pursue , increasingly decoupling from previously imposed agreements or agreements, let’s call them the countries of the collective west, there is an increasing desire to build their own lives independently,
8:44 pm
the independence of their foreign economic policy. i have never been to africa , i have never been to india as a colonialist, we were always the ones there who helped them build their economy, social sphere, infrastructure, unlike western countries, which always came there as colonists, sucked out all the wealth, which sucked everything, which means resources and... neocolonialism continues today, why do many people think, this happened with libya, how it happened, why in syria this here is the conflict in iraq, which means, at one time, why did egypt do this too, the color revolutions shook us, we know where they started, tunisia, because these countries at
8:45 pm
some point switched from such a simple trade with the west, which was expressed like this, there, relatively speaking, there is oil, there are... lubricants, bauxite, and something else, in exchange for goods, equipment from the west, they moved on to the fact that they began to develop the corresponding production, at some point there was a dilemma for western countries, and it’s so good, i buy oil from them, i buy some resources from them, we have to drive something there, and if, strictly speaking, they began to raise their own agriculture, that means neither wheat nor vegetables and fruits will not come from europe, that is, they started assembling production, processing with the help of belarus, russia, china there and so on, what will happen, the pumping of capital will be from european countries, nothing good for them, much the same, the same paradigm was in relation to these wars between the west and china there in
8:46 pm
xvi century, when china simply began to actually pump silver from the new world and from europe. going for silver currency, not buying anything in europe, but selling there from silk to paper and everything that china was famous for at that time, so here the same the approach is purely predatory, and as soon as they begin to develop, that’s it, these countries are not interesting, the rulers need to be changed, which means they need to be hooked on luxury items that they learned to make in europe during this time, and so that everything is imported there, peoples, so today these nations have recovered, today they are ready to develop, and we are getting there with technology. the president always says that with india we should try to reach a level, well, no less than with china, in fact the country is huge, powerful,
8:47 pm
developed, and of course, we can find opportunities some niches where we do not compete, or where , on the contrary, we can create something jointly so that it is useful for both parties and we can give something somewhere else to foreign markets, there is no doubt, but it is necessary understand that in india, probably still... issues of cooperation with some western countries are a slightly higher priority, and of course, in this regard, this means that the inertia of movement is a little greater, but i want to tell you, despite this, there are a number projects, there are a number of agreements, and i am sure that in the near future time, without revealing them now under nakedness, well, we will be witnesses, which means their implementation, there is one topic that only the lazy are not interested in and which is directly related to yours...
8:48 pm
this is what our diplomatic department expects today from the elections in america? well, those who never happened like this, well, probably, some pages from the history of the united states simply forgot, there was and means kennedy, there were other earlier four presidents only, but that’s why, in fact, the behind-the-scenes managers of america’s development policy, like ...somehow today they are not sleeping, in response to your question, i want to say right away that the belarusian side really hopes and really wants all
8:49 pm
the us presidential candidates to reach the finish line of this presidential campaign healthy and without injuries, i support, on the other hand, of course, many analysts today from all countries of the world, from all international organizations, they make their forecasts about what america will be like. with trump or biden, they make their own predictions about what this will mean for the international security architecture, what it will mean for relations with those or other countries, i would honestly not engage in such forecasts today for one reason only: yes, in the trump election campaign there are some things that are close to us and close to many countries that, frankly speaking, are already a little tired of... this mentoring the united states interferes in topics that, well, from the point of view, so to speak, of the collective
8:50 pm
international community, well, in principle, is not the business of the united states of america, but in america itself there is also fatigue from the fact that today the country’s leadership is so much involved in foreign policy foreign economic affairs, sanctions matters, and so on, and less involved in internal affairs. the next president, he will primarily proceed from the interests of america, these are what the interests will be at that moment, i would like these interests
8:51 pm
to first of all correspond, you know, to such civilized methods of achieving one’s goals abroad, that’s if this will be, then we will welcome these changes in american foreign policy; if it continues, then such a policy... of unilateral pressure, sanctions, unleashing wars, after all, these wars, which are on the perimeter of china, russia in hot spots, are all, in fact, sponsored and encouraged precisely from the ocean, points of growth of this conflict potential, which is capable of going beyond the boundaries of purely these regions to cover more already some serious interregional things, so...
8:52 pm
8:53 pm
then you can get completely different answers, but in the opinion of your counterpart lavrov, with whom you met recently, yes, the main thing is to always remain honest and not betray anyone, either in life or at work, but according to nitsch, all diplomacy consists in pet the dog until the muzzle is put on it, this is our... western approach, whose opinion is closer to you, the sovereign man or the author of the superman? well already in the question itself there is already an answer, of course, a sovereign man, i did not lead you to this answer exactly, well, the answer is on the surface precisely for the reason that we, belarus, i, as a minister, need predictable, reliable
8:54 pm
partners, this can only be achieved by fulfilling our agreements. promising something that you can let your partners down, something that you always fulfill, and monitoring the implementation, no matter what our president says, if you promised to fulfill it, control it, achieve it, well, of course, we expect this from our partners, and of course, this is it matrix building relations with some states on a bilateral basis, it is very important that they work with us, be friends and implement projects that were agreed upon not only next year. in 5 years, well, in 10, and in 20, for 100 years, so that we can inherit this friendship, on which the entire complex of economic, social, political contacts is based, from us to our children, as the president always says. if you achieve some kind of subordination of the interests of another country, as nietzsche preaches, that is, he defined it as the collective west preaches, then, of course, there will be no stability in these relations, that
8:55 pm
’s it. secondly, you will no longer be trusted by third countries, because seeing how you behave here, they will also evaluate the prospects for cooperation with you. the most obvious examples are that russian assets were seized there in the european union, they now want them all there, that means seizing them somewhere, sending interest from them there, sending that here, well, you see, everyone today started talking about large holders of some bonds there or cash. this means that in dollars, in euros, they began to slowly get rid of this matter, this is there, again, predictability and trust of partners, which is built on some examples. if we are talking about the muzzle, well , what distinguished us in the west is that for the last 200-300 years it has been putting this muzzle on africa and asia. and today we see what
8:56 pm
the relationship is like. and they completely forgot about germany, which was once also present in africa, i ’m not even talking about belgium, which or italy, which fled at one time, taking only the last one there is a suitcase from their former dependent territories, and they allowed such a massacre, allowing such a massacre, it’s just their good. until now, these countries, at a very serious international level, have not raised the topic of the genocide of their peoples, which was carried out in their time, they have not raised the issue of some kind of compensation, reparations, the return of the historical heritage itself, which was carried around mercilessly in its time, which is from the louvre there before wotton
8:57 pm
is in america today, well, listen, that’s why i... it’s true, thank you, maxim vladimirovich, you know, it was a wonderful conversation, it’s a pity that we are limited in time, thank you, thank you, the situation on the polish-belarusian border is getting worse, because germany has begun to expel people with asian and oriental appearance from its country to the territory of poland, it looks more like a local agreement , which they decided to use for internal politics.
