answering journalists' questions, alexander lukashenko generally stressed that belarus and russia should not look for a way out of the current international situation. and those who created it about what was said at the summit and what was in the air natalia breus. the leaders of the cis are received by the konstantinovsky palace, the head of uzbekistan arrived, who seems to have already managed to exhale. there was no sco until the last moment after the meeting . it is clear, will there be such a thing, but of course, yes, kazakhstan chairs the commonwealth . it is interesting that olive and pashinyan are straight from prague, where the summit of the european political community discussed how to live without russia, the work schedule did not allow the presence in the head of kyrgyzstan, so emomali rahmon , the president of turkmenistan, did not ignore the meeting. although it is informal, but the first persons in ties, such friendly meetings of the cis leaders in the northern capital of russia are already a

tradition. there is some symbolism in this. still, the native places of the russian leader. some journalists know openness. lukashenka was immediately asked without hesitation, and with what belarusian president putin came as a gift for a colleague, just today he is celebrating his anniversary, but they brought a gift. hello, i don't have a tractor. here is the moskovsky komsomolets. you have such a journalist known somehow forgot the name. well, probably not. i wanted to tell him to pay attention that i arrived in august. he loves it there too, and the tractor, which one i work on in belarus, is the best manual one with all the nozzles, you know a million, so this is optional, but i will offer him , uh, one nozzle, we will hang sow. uh, bread, maybe something else, it

’s universal, we’ll grow up and blow it in europe there, so that they don’t starve, so that they don’t steal bread in ukraine, but they bring strange jokes to the poor, as they say, some truth. well, lukashenka doesn’t haik on a tractor , and it’s true that you can often see him in the fields. that is, colleagues, as for themselves, though today is a test drive of the russian aurus, you look around, putin will not have a headache, what to present in response. who else came with what? the question was the types of konstantinovsky issued. is that the head of tajikistan such summits a free discussion on the topic of the day of the international situation is taking place, and the truth is heating up what way out of the international situation today, the way out should be sought, we didn’t go in and out of

there. we're not going with any pushing. let them search with these international tables. where did they go, but you all know one piece of advice, they have been looking for this exit for a long time, the security borders. our western our western is hard to say. you heard the statement that, allegedly, we have already agreed, we will move the nuclear weapons arsenals to poland they will think, but have already decided to think again, how different it is, they don’t care. everything is fast in order to meet in order to be normal in the cis space about the open part of the beginning with a positive economic cooperation of the commonwealth is expanding trade turnover is growing. if more energetic calculations were made in national currencies, the political situation would also be better. here , the idea has been in the air for a long time; it is a guarantee of financial sovereignty, like technological import substitution. here they

are, these sanctions are wrong, but how is this work on general security, by the way, it was said about it in our circle, of course, we will also touch on issues related to the problems of ensuring security in space. after all, the commonwealth, in addition to ukraine, is where really tragic events take place, and unfortunately , conflicts sometimes arise between other close e states of the post-soviet space, and this certainly requires the development of measures to resolve them, it is said about armenia by azerbaijan or is it still a hint of dushanbe-bishkek is not so important , yes, alas, but problems in the circle of the commonwealth enough for several decades in december , the union has already 31 been all sorts of things, but no matter how stormy, no matter what arrows of criticism come , the creation of the organization was still it was not in vain that such an integration dome for the former soviet republics from the chaos of

economic collapse more than once said lukashenka was necessary minsk has always stood up for rapprochement and campaigned for everyone in the cis. otherwise, they will kill one by one the anniversary year of the commonwealth passed. it was under the chairmanship of belarus well, in this it passed to kazakhstan, the official summit of the cis plans to astana next week. so we can say that the clock before the upcoming full-scale meeting of the council of heads of state of friendship is on its agenda, the kazakhstani chairmanship brings out really important topics of integration cooperation in politics, the economy and the humanitarian sphere. a solid package of documents is being prepared today without documents, but with tete-a-tete conversations. did you learn from the sidelines that this is how the presidents of belarus communicated with russia after the summit natalya breus tel-news agency? well, as already it was said above that the president of russia today

celebrates the seventieth anniversary of vladimir putin, alexander lukashenko congratulated him, as our president noted. being the true leader of the great power. you make well-considered and difficult decisions in order to ensure the independent development of the russian federation, the protection of the traditions and values ​​​​of the russian people, minsk values ​​\u200b\u200bopen and trusting relations with the president of russia, as well as equal fruitful dialogues that serve to strengthen the allied belarusian russian ties are said in congratulations. lately. this is clearly manifested in the deepening of the integration of our countries alexander lukashenko noted that together minsk and moscow will adequately respond to global challenges and reach a new level of strategic partnership alexander lukashenko wholeheartedly wished vladimir putin excellent health and creative achievements for the benefit of the russian state. and long life surrounded by loving family and reliable friends. the president

today signed a directive on the inadmissibility price increases the document was adopted for an immediate and tough response to the current situation in the consumer market to protect the interests of citizens and organizations of belarus preventing further price increases establishing an effective system of price control and provision of the domestic consumer market with goods the directive introduces a ban on price increases and obligations to unconditionally saturate the domestic market goods and services also provides for liability for improper fulfillment of the established directive requirements for the development of measures, a working group headed by the chairman of the council of the republic natalia kochanova was instructed to develop and submit to the council of ministers a proposal

on measures to improve price regulation on an ongoing basis, monitoring prices and the state of the consumer within ten days. to inform the market, regulatory and law enforcement agencies of identified violations in order to take response measures, it is the inadmissibility of price increases in order to protect the interests of citizens, alexander lukashenko said the day before during big meeting with the economic bloc. the president reacted extremely sharply to the issues of inflation and the unjustified rise in price tags. on the sixth, any increase in prices is prohibited. today, not tomorrow, but today, so that prices do not go up overnight, then i will say that we raised prices on the sixth, so today the price increase is prohibited. and god forbid someone has been to his body, who will carry out retroactively

some calculations of overgrowth , except if the decision of the minister is made. or the chairman of the region, the executive committee without their permission, none. the price cannot grow to what it is today, why do i make such a strong-willed decision, because prices, after a surge of the crazed what the prime minister spoke of, have also grown in the same way and prices. today, they are outrageous, they hit the ceiling, it is impossible to raise prices anywhere else. not necessary. the government has been given the task, by october 20, on the basis of the proposal of the working group, to approve it , to put into effect a system of price regulation, to ensure effective control over price

discipline once again i emphasize the persons guilty of failure to comply with the requirements of the directive will be held liable up to the criminal we. just today, the first meeting of the working group on the issue of stabilization took place in the council of the republic. prices for curbing inflation were composed of heads of ministries and departments, senators, deputies and experts on economic issues. in the future , this list will be expanded, as a result, all proposals will be sent to the government but not yet waiting for the decision of the working group and clear rules of the game by pricing. some so-called analysts tried to warm up the situation by urging belarusians to buy everything for the future at once and predict future shortages on store shelves , as in soviet times. however , we all go to a trading facility, both large and small, every day and see that the goods are always in abundance and such a variety of food products as in belarus can be

envied by many countries. yes, and their production in our country is significantly ahead of consumption in the domestic market; such a rich choice will remain and henceforth the situation is under control. will control the saturation of the consumer market. and, of course, this will be dealt with, as usual, deputies, trade unions, senators. well , of course, we will get involved, and the local authorities in order to quickly respond to any problems that arise in the market, but also the prompt adoption of a decision by the working group will allow us to stabilize the price market and make normal decisions in terms of further work on a retail market. i would like to draw your attention to the fact that today government agencies are aimed at then, to provide the domestic market with all domestically produced products. and most importantly , experts

from both importers and manufacturers will take part in the work of this working group. that is, as we have already said, the entire chain of production and delivery of goods to the counter, and we will develop a solution for this group that will preserve the saturation of the market and ensure the full representation of goods on the counter. price regulation for all goods arguments of trade unions of deputies and belstat what do the numbers say, what does the people 's monitoring in stores fix? how to create clear rules of the game for everyone from the manufacturer to the importer and trade, if the reserves for cheapening goods and what is fair pricing, as well as a wide range in trade has been and will be under control and responsibility in the domestic market tomorrow at 7:00 pm at project question number one is the price. so, almost 2 weeks have been given to the working group.

it is important for everyone to make a sound proposal for price containment. clear control, the price tags already launched. it will be large-scale with the maximum involvement of everyone who checks new measures to regulate prices and the responsibility of trade producers will discuss with the guests of the panorama. alexei bogdanov, minister of antimonopoly regulation and trade, and leonid brich, chairman of the standing committee on economic policy of the house of representatives, are in our studio today. so the ban on price increases is a self-resonant decision of this outgoing week. let's still explain who it will affect manufacturers of suppliers retail chains of all and to which goods it is subject to a moratorium on increase. prices will affect absolutely everyone all goods and all services produced in the republic of belarus prices are frozen, starting from yesterday and here no games can be banned

the possibility of manipulating prices, as instructed, the head of state there can be no accounting fraud no cancellation of discounts recalculations, and invoices before the valuation of goods, and so on. we excluded all this in order to fulfill all this in strictness. order all the prices that business entities wanted to raise, they have already raised, so here it is stop. and then we develop measures to regulate this issue in the future. that is, it doesn't matter if it 's imported. narrow products trade network individual entrepreneur does not matter absolutely this applies to all business entities operating in the territory of our country. again, according to the directive. we are creating a working group that will work out a world on price regulation, but already today in the first approximation, in your opinion. what measures can be the most effective in order to really curb inflation in the first place, of course, it is necessary to work with costs, because, according to statistics, our costs were growing precisely in production . which is happening, in

principle, with inflation, so here it is necessary to look for reserves precisely in production processes, optimizing business processes, optimizing production, looking for new chains, supplies of cheaper goods and the environment of our production. of course, for trade for trade, for example, it will also be necessary to work out a system of margins , allowances, which will be fair and will not, of course, allow a trade subject to go bankrupt, but will also ensure the availability of goods for our consumers. ethnic services that the president spoke about, they, unfortunately, are present somewhere, and here it is precisely to find that form, that mechanism of work, reducing production costs, so that it would not be in the formation - during the formation the cost of production, the manufacturer of that additional costly mechanism, which is invested at the expense of intermediary structures, announced strict liability for violators. what bells for example, march will respond in the first place. you know, we immediately stepped up the control measure today

, a large number of stationary retail facilities are being checked, we have sent a request for price, which means, uh, delivery conditions to all online stores by the manufacturer of goods to service providers and will conduct a tough monitoring. all those who violated the decision of the head of state. they will be punished up to the suspension of the work of the subjects until the situation is corrected, so here they are on ceremony with violators and no one will be. at the moment, probably, not everything is in operation. legislation e corresponds to those requirements of yesterday's president, and here is the task. e. well, probably, not only the deputies in the legislation, but also the authorities to make appropriate changes to the current resolutions in order to make this a serious responsibility liability for violation. uh, would understand that, well really up to the closure of the store to the point that if you would be a systematic violation up to even criminal liability. well, the same price situation applies to all links. yes, not

only stores, of course, not only trade of manufacturers, including, perhaps, monitoring is needed then at all levels, and not only in stores, today we will be producing absolutely at all levels of everyone. who was affected by the restoration of all whom concerns the directive. everything will be checked, importers, manufacturers, suppliers , intermediaries, including, of course, trading facilities, and online trading is not excluded here. we will look at everyone who does not comply here and who does not comply, who indulges in this, who overestimates. of course, they will be punished, but there is also unorganized trade, these are markets. here, too, we need to look at how to organize the work of control, including the price level. this is very important . it is very important to determine a fair system for distributing the added profit from throughout chain, starting from the field and up to the counter somewhere for all the subjects, that everyone worked, everyone earned, but it’s fair that the group will work on this, of course. well , thanks for the conversation. thank you large-scale

monitoring of prices in the country's trade facilities is carried out and the state control committee , together with other regulatory bodies of the department , collects information on all positions of food and non-food groups of goods. this is how such work is carried out material by victoria radevich today, in the work on pricing control, the emphasis is on stores, being within walking distance to take care of those who cannot travel long distances is the number one task. for example, state control officers check the counters in a supermarket in the residential district of the partizansky district of the capital while they are only studying the price tags and analyzing all the necessary documentation of the store, along the way, questions arise about some bakery products and dairy products. we observe documents on price registers. we see that if prices change supply producers, then trading

networks reduce them due to their trade margin. suppose, if earlier, then on some dairy products. e, products used 15%, now the trade markup has been reduced to 7% despite the fact that the work is carried out really extensive for such a volume of checks, they note in the state control that they were ready to carry them out on an ongoing basis, of course, they disregard the technical requirements of trade rules re. this is a variety of goods and storage conditions for products. so today we had to remove confectionery products from the shelf to the store, we remove this product, because here, according to storage conditions, the temperature must be maintained up to 18 °. and here the temperature was above 23. raids on shops are carried out jointly by trade unions, deputy, corps, representatives of local authorities and march, each state body has its own level of authority, but now it is for specialists. the main thing is to understand if there is a rise in prices, how they are justified and whether they are agreed and why they have changed since

the last deliveries, therefore , we are already taking part in questions, including to manufacturers, uh, monitoring in terms of the work of the hotline in the part posted on the website of the online questionnaire. we collect all this information and analyze it on the subject. e violations of this decision and in the future this information will be analyzed, starting from the shelf in the trade facility, ending with the manufacturer throughout this movement, and today the short number 191 has been opened in the state control committee, to which you can report information about the facts of increasing prices for goods and services can signal and representatives of trade organizations hotline will work daily from 9:00 to 18:00. all information will be promptly checked and used in the control activities. all identified violations from the point of view of the law will be assessed by law enforcement agencies of response measures, they promised to take the most stringent up to the initiation of a criminal case. work continues preliminary results of scale.
