competitive obstacles won nikita lobastov. therefore, i turn to the coaches about the belarusian basketball football team. he's definitely not good at volleyball. if you have any questions, please contact nikita. young man the competition is already over, but really, but our program will continue and in a week we are back on the air. to touch upon questions that it is impossible not to ask a person lately.

pure, therefore, at all times it was present among people, but in the most anxious and responsible times. oddly enough people the comments and recommendations of experts who have studied the essence of the situation become kinder to each other, a wonderful technique that i always recommend to clients. it is to keep a diary of feelings and emotions. that is, in a good way, anger is like mothers. that is, if i feel angry for me, this is a signal, either my needs are frustrated, or my borders, someone, uh, climbed in and you are interested, but you at least consider the fact verified, because bloggers are one or the other all there, watch the project concept of neutralize on belarus 24 tv channel.

the time of quick decisions and discoveries belarusian enterprises are already writing the history of new addresses for the assembly of their equipment, the supply of components and the conquest of new markets near and far. by the way, there our goods know well the quality,

reliability and price. well, what else is needed for the agreement to be sealed with signatures? sanctions close some doors for us, but after looking at the map, we found many open ones there. by the way, there our equipment does not need advertising. this is something that is always profitable to sell, as well as sincere. what is the best way to give. here is the president of belarus during his state visit to africa, he came with a gift of a tractor for president zimba's personal subsidiary plot. by the way , our belarusians are already actively working in these fields, and soon there will be such machines. more contracts have been signed. this is also a solution to the issue of food security for this country. we also offer supplies from our food products and other new projects, without africa there can be no prospects in the world. in general, here are the resources. there are people here. here people every year become more educated, here and the latest technologies come here, the world

cannot develop without africa, therefore we are our friends here. we arrived friends. we negotiate with them in the name of our peoples, today in snowy minsk we will talk about the warm welcome in zimbabwe, our interests in africa and the united arab emirates yes, and in other countries and continents, as well as negotiations with russian colleagues and important business missions this year today number one for the chairman of the belarusian trade and industry. mikhail myakikova mikhailovich hello. i of course with the arrival of you. here. i see, here are the souvenirs in your office. of course, you can follow this and history, business missions, the chamber of commerce and industry, where they were, what they saw is obtained from each country of the news. recently, the prime minister's visit was part of a delegation of the prime minister's visit to iran and syria, here is a wine set from iran, here is a damascus from syria

well, you just returned, of course, you still managed to bring something to replenish the exhibits from zimbabwe. well, first of all, i would like to say that my impressions are probably the most needed useful the continent and about the country about the people wonderful side. and if from the material, then he brought a hippopotamus. well, not alive, of course, a souvenir joke and therefore i want you. let's see, here is a hippopotamus, which is a real african associated with africa. yes, of course, this is a totem among many peoples and tribes of africa. an animal and i would say, even to some extent, a symbol, probably, of strength and stability, therefore they bowed down and always fed the african tribes from the hippopotamus, therefore, well, like this i got a wonderful souvenir. but when a business mission is being prepared to different countries , not to mention different continents. these are probably some different approaches that

have their own characteristics when preparing this business mission in zimbabwe no, well, if we are talking about our closest friends , the country's neighbors, the post-soviet space, this, of course, is a completely different principle of building business preparation mess, if we say africa that we are discovering, of course, it's a little different, and i would say that our acquaintance began in the sixteenth year, when there was a meeting with the ambassador of zimbabwe, who, concurrently, he is in russia, concurrently in belarus, he came to our chamber and just proposed to establish relations with the european chamber of commerce. and since then, we have already begun to, e, improve our relations, understand each other, and already in the nineteenth year, the first business mission took place. then we had a short break, because the pandemic, unfortunately, made it so that many contacts were paused online, after all he was not the same absolutely yes, that's why we

held our national exposition last year and showed our products at the international exhibition in zimbabwe. and this business mission was already being prepared more actively. the doors of the visit of the head of state are, of course, timed to coincide with the visit of our president and the delegation included 33 campaigns as a result. we sent all spheres of interest to the chamber of the chamber in advance, naturally, sent it out among the business community. zimbabwe and as a result 120 zimbobrists registered for the forum companies. i think i would say our largest events that we have ever held in africa well, you came to africa, of course, not empty-handed and only brought equipment , but also some of our delicacies, some meat, maybe dairy, what else did you bring. by the way, we saw the footage where you treated the zimba vians to our ice cream. i want to

say that i will probably start by saying that the forum that we held consisted of three parts. the first is the plenary part of the form, in which e. business representatives of official delegations state all members of the state delegation of the republic of belarus, vice-president zimba and ministers. but this, of course, gave a status to the event, where further presentations of our export potential were made to support our exports. zimbabbians, of course, also talked about the conditions for investing. this was the plenary part, the second part of the forums - these are bilateral b2b negotiations with each other between the company, based on interests, because several directions were represented. this is a machine building. pharmaceutical services educational medical services in the future light

industry everything connected with it from cotton from raw materials to finished products. that's the direction they've been working on. ah in bilateral contacts and the next day is a visit. uh zimbabbist companies are already directly in place and negotiations continue, so most of the delegations arrived this first time, but moving on to what was presented a small exhibition. e, and a treat tasting, of course, a dry mixture was developed, which is the degree of storage, not necessarily temperature conditions, just fit without a refrigerator. even the storage in the zimbaly is the frazier apparatus, which is based on our milk powder, but dry ice cream is made on earthy shaft juice. mango is the mixture. and it gave out ready-made fresh ice cream, so during the forum, for several hours of the plenary part, 900

servings of ice cream were made. that is, i liked it, the device worked. just not stopping. i i think that the result will be after this tasting, and the vice-president of zibaba highly appreciated the quality of belarusian products. even listening to you, i noticed that we can quickly adapt to the market. yes, they brought their mixture, but at the same time they added the fruits of that country, to which they are accustomed in principle to the earth. there was said a little belarusian winter in the african summer. mikhail mikhailovich have you already touched on the business? forum. in general, how did the contacts go there? what are the main areas for ourselves we set priority in this market, but in general, how do you assess these negotiations, the amount of contracts, at the moment, initially, some is already visible, but negotiations in business are always such a casting of the bait in advance that they can increase the amount of contracts out of the most number of these contracts . yes, i absolutely agree with you because i can say that,

as i already said. many arrived for the first time in zimwal and spent the first time in negotiations with partners, potential future partners, as we hope and can say, that 5 dealer agreements have already been signed. a cooperation agreement was signed between the confederation of industrialists in belarus zimbabwe has already confirmed the visit of industrialists to us a visit to our machine-building complex. i think that new contacts will be established here after the visit of our partners. i mean the zimbaba ward. we are waiting with a delegation at belagro, at our international exhibition with a visit, therefore, they promised us to come to the exhibition in order to have the opportunity. we want to introduce from food products to agricultural engineering in one place to travel around the enterprise, and in one place to show our export potential directly at the exhibition, i want to say that the agreements

that were signed during the visit and the minister of foreign affairs already spoke about this that if we digitize them for the next 2 years, taking into account the near future, all the equipment will be delivered somewhere around 4,000. units are the result of the visit of our president, about $ 200 million, this is what will happen soon implemented in the next two years. the topic was also touched upon during the talks, and investments in the hospital are not against us investing in some areas of the economy. we are interested in investments in this country. i must say that they already exist, because service centers have been created and are operating to service belarusian equipment, which is already working in thousands of fields and quarries. uh, zimbabwe these centers. these are not only sales centers. these are

service centers. this is a parts warehouse. these are educational preparation classes. uh, the people who will work and manage this equipment, including the repair base, which is being created in several places, including, uh, where the equipment works, so we can already talk about the investments that zimbabwe has and the second the sphere, uh, which is booming is this mining industry, because zimbab is the whole periodic table there is a lot of lithium, electric vehicles without batteries, without lithium. they simply cannot exist, so the developments are going on and the whole world is very intensive. in need of this, i can say that only gold was mined in the twenty-first year more than thirty tons. and if we are talking about diamonds, then this is 14,000 carats of diamonds, so these are huge numbers, but , of course, there are also constraining factors. the main one is an undeveloped infrastructure and imperfection of

investment legislation. therefore, these are the things from which we accept. uh, participation directly is the creation of infrastructure, therefore, when creating an energy road structure. i think there will be development even. z exponentially, the main wealth of zimbabwe is hidden in the depths of african soil and gold, platinum nickel has rare metals, precious stones, almost the entire periodic table provides a fifth of the country's gdp , as a result , the extractive industry sector is promising for belarus. our career equipment. it is not a novelty here that this practice is expected to be scaled up. in addition, zimbabwe has set a course for the modernization of agriculture. the agricultural sector employs up to 80% of the population belarusian products and technologies in the agricultural industry cause the greatest interest over the past 5 years. the minsk tractor works supplied more than 1,800 units of equipment to zimbabwe, and on the previous day , the business in the form of an agreement reached in harare on the supply of

more than 3,500 tractors within two years. well, given such different directions , our interests are probably business missions of business contacts from down the line. minsk harari. there will be more, especially after the president's state visit. their apriori should be more in april. this is the international zimbabei exhibition, and with our national pavilion has a great interest of enterprises flurry of bells. now after the president's visit. and i think that a large delegation from our export-oriented enterprises will leave in april, and the zimbabwe exhibition will be an exhibition. we'll appreciate it. than it will not only be business zimba attend the exhibition. this is getting closer to the nearest country, therefore we see that this is a huge number of visitors to neighbors, therefore participation in this exhibition, as always, is the analysis of exhibitions. we are the first criteria that make how many visitors? from which countries that's when you decide to offer our exporters participation in

this or that exhibition. well, this is probably the most important interesting fact, because africa is, of course, not only zimba in africa is a huge continent and there are many countries with such a rapidly growing gdp, but today for us it is a promising continent and some may be such countries beacons, where we would like to go, it may be stronger to strengthen. you know, if you look at the map, e africa, i would divide it, everything, equatorial africa this is everything below the sugars and south africa is raw material africa north africa uh, this is the largest processing africa from egypt to morocco proximity borders the sea across the sea europe 100 years ago africa was completely a colony of european countries, most of all owned a colony, of course france then great britain was a colony of great britain, resources were siphoned off. e. well, today only in

1980 it gained independence. it 's literally yesterday. this is in our lifetime, so the country is just starting to develop, so very capacity said our president for the africa of the future therefore. it is profitable for us to invest here after all in developing countries, because the prospects will later pay off than we will in years, but quite large amounts of 30% of the world's reserves of raw materials are in africa and in many positions, as i already said, this is gold . is this platinum. these are lithium diamonds. it is ranked first in the world. so we have to be there and help. and to participate in the development of these raw materials the african continent is logical the vector of the far arc of the belarusian foreign policy of diplomatic relations is established with five one african countries out of 54 five diplomatic missions on the continent in south africa and egypt, kenya, nigeria and

zimbabwe, a support in promoting our interests in the region. so, according to the results of 2021, the belarusian african trade turnover amounted to $ 500 million, with an absolute preponderance of our exports of $480 million, agricultural, cargo mining equipment. metallurgy products in the portfolio of domestic supplies, belarus relies on industrial cooperation started in alexandria back in 2017 , the assembly production of the ntz plant opened its doors to the market of the south african republic. it is possible that belarusian tractors will soon be produced here under the local brand, their projects in egypt are being worked out and the minsk automobile plant is talking about other missions, if we plan in the near future time. that's it for the african pensioner. maybe sudan mozambique or some kind of negotiations are underway. i wonder if we have already planned six exhibitions for the twenty-third year, which we will hold on our african continent first named it symbols. the next one is nigeria cat divoir,

and angola egypt are the countries in which we will participate in this year's exhibitions. last year. we participated in kenya, therefore , if in previous years we held the belarusian african forum 21 in the seventeenth year, we participated in the form , and to a greater extent diplomats, now we have probably switched to the practice of e -work, then chechnya directly with countries already with specific to deepen business cooperation, that is, to ensure so that interests can be established already by sectors of the economy. we, when we enter the same country, i set up some kind of assembly production, of course, we count. it is for the supply of these goods or neighboring markets. here, in particular, it was said in the land and penetrating, for example, simply cooperation. yes, the president of belarus was on a visit to sudan at one time. zimbafs in particular, well, you can already say our reference point and where will be concentrated in the near future a

huge amount of equipment that can be sold to other regions. uh, winter appears by a country that is part of the continental free trade zone. and we have the opportunity to deliver duty-free to dozens of countries in the future from this country to other countries, therefore, although there is no access to the sea, the nearest ports are either in south africa or in mozang, but at the same time. uh, this is a very convenient platform for contact with other strange logistics issue, as you know, basically, here is the movement of the delivery of goods. it also occupies a significant share in the cost in the final cost of the goods, africa is not a close continent, but still we find it is possible to find these optimal ways. of course , i want to say that the sanctions carried their own adjustments. those transport routes that we have always used, but today they are violated and enterprises are looking for new ways to deliver

goods, so it’s either at the beginning of the railway communication, then transshipment in ports and delivery to the ports of africa closest to zimbavoy - for example, either south africa or mozampik and then again transshipment in the port and delivery directly hmm our own tractors. the zimbabwe road covers 18,000 km. this is a very long distance and in time stretches up to three months. delivery, based on the sanctions, here are these new routes and the lengthening of the transit time. including an international company and stood up speculative bidding , there was a lack of availability of containers, because for them the delivery time, therefore, the containers have become less likely to be returned, therefore. everything, this mystic has led to an increase in the transport component in the final price of products, but

at the same time, enterprises compete and participate in the same zimbabwe agricultural programs. now there will be a new third stage, so new ways have been found and sanctions are new opportunities, as we are already talking about this optimistically, we look, of course, because enterprises quickly reoriented themselves and found new logistics. e. hmm routes to sell their products in new markets. this week. also, probably, there was such a topic number one. these negotiations in the united arab emirates are also not new directions, because we have constantly maintained relations, and in in general lead to this investment projects with this country. and at the talks with the president, it was announced that 10 areas have been identified, and we are even waiting for specialists to work them out in detail. here is our cooperation. this market is complicated, but it is still interesting for us, maybe the final chamber of industry looks like some new developments. that's

to engage our experts in this market. if we say africa is a developing country, then the united arab emirates is a country with a chic infrastructure. this is an opportunity the port infrastructure is very developed and the possibility of re-exporting belarusian products in the future to the african market, so you can consider the united arab emirates from various angles, this is the supply of products of our labor. we are coming for 2 weeks now we will be holding in dubai and participating, a food exhibition with our products for the local market. second direction. the most important thing, perhaps, is that this is a country with huge opportunities and finances. these are investments on a net basis that come to our country and we consider this country, of course, to attract investment to us. and the third component, i have already said, is the re-export of our products thanks to the developed port infrastructure. therefore, the united arab emirates

is interesting from all sides in terms of our contacts. we have signed an agreement with the three chambers with the dubai chamber of abu dhabi and sharjah and a memorandum with the federation of chambers of the united arab emirates. we participated in the expo belarus was represented by its national pavilion at 1.500 m, which i visited. but for six months the expo and the belarusian the counter showed that the pavilion was visited by about a million people, so we are already present there, of course, the market is so interesting for us. but the exhibition you said in the near future, it will be held grocery. we also prepare certain products specifically for this market. yes, of course, halal products, which will be presented there in the first place. our company has already been credited to have these certificates, therefore, we have already been accredited and represent ready-made products, where the products of the emirates are our main partner among the arab

gulf states over the past 5 years mutual trade has more than tripled trade in services. in particular , transport prevails. in addition, the uae is a significant investor in the belarusian economy. in recent years. it holds the fourth place in terms of capital investments among the priorities that belarus develops with the emirates. green technologies it and food are another area of ​​mutual business interests. the largest project, north shore, a multifunctional entertainment complex, created according to principle, smart, city within a city arab investor is willing to invest in the project about five billion dollars. this is one of the world's largest companies on its account, which, among others, and the tallest building in the world burj khalifa mikhail mikhailovich has repeatedly stated that, of course, our interests are everywhere where they are waiting for us and, of course, this is not only africa and the united arab emirates for this year, in general, the plan for such events and business mixes and exhibitions is full, yes, here we are starting this year zimba, but i want to say,

that it is our calendar for uh, the twenty-third year - this is 42 exhibitions in various countries. long-distance arcs in the first place and mongolia and china and south korea we will also be represented in pakistan this year i want to say that we do not forget europe either. we have scheduled participation in the largest exhibition in the balkans. in serbia, in the new garden there will be our agricultural exhibition. this may be to some extent an analogue of our belagro, when food is in the diet, the machine structure is still there and all the balkans will be there and naturally. we want our uh, national. exposition present at this exhibition. and of course, we will be represented at many exhibitions in the post-soviet space. well , speaking about the post-soviet space, of course, in the closest neighbors, belarus russia , we have quite active contacts lately and in the forum of regions forum. it

collects a huge number and manufacturers. yes, and the business community to talk to exchange views this year. he anniversary hosts ufa already getting ready in the same way as for the industrial exhibition and at the prom. she is also against russia but i want to say that it has already become a tradition. uh, business council, belarus russia, under the auspices of the chambers of commerce and industry of the two countries , regional business is going to hold within the framework of the forum regions. this includes the heads of the regions to gather parliamentarians, and we are holding our business council in this anniversary form, which will be held in ufa. we are planning our large exhibition and fair for the sale of belarusian products, both food and light industry, therefore there will be a very large-scale event along the line chamber of commerce and industry, well, here are the agreements at the level of presidents. somehow, let’s say, they are pushing business in the regions of even faraway russia to look at goods from belarus, maybe they can offer

some kind of joint assembly, because now cooperation is absolutely in the first place. this is a signal for us to continue our cooperation. business, whether it even addresses you through the line, belarus, russia still resolves some issues in the chamber of commerce and industry, maybe there are some controversial issues. maybe in something helps and go to some enterprise in a particular market here to say that because of the sanctions imposed against our country. hmm , there have become very frequent cases of the enterprise's appeal due to force majeure circumstances, which cannot be overcome by force. if in the seventeenth year of the nineteenth year we had only 74 applications for 3 years, then only the 22nd 350th certificate there is a very significant increase in the issuance of certificates. uh , force majeure, the so-called force majeure. well, help resolve these situations and the international arbitration court court, which is located at beltp. in particular

, our exporter is acting in external transactions that they have concluded contracts and for some reason. couldn't fulfill. i would like to return, probably now, to the film industry, at the suggestion of the government of the russian federation, our government has decided to participate in this exhibition as a partner country. what is it could explain that we will have to build 3.000 m², we are given the truth, very good financial conditions. yes for 3.000 m². this is probably the first time in history the volume will need to be built up, uh, the exhibition presents a discount of fifty. accented, therefore, virtually all sectors of our economy will be represented there. and in the city of yekaterinburg, where a large fair of belarusian products is held and will be held at the same time, there will also be a cultural program. this is the birthplace of our songwriter. therefore,

i think that both the cultural program and the creative teams will be able to go there, as a rule. at this exhibition, it is visited by almost all regions of the russian federation business. but the most important thing is that it's already in the past year we watched, uh, participated and took part. eh, delegations from fifty- five countries, so when we go to a foreign industry we show our exhibition not only to russia and the regions of russia, but for now by delegations of business representatives from many countries of the world who will come to this exhibition today. here we discussed with you our business interests both in distant continents and with our closest neighbors. that's for you, as chairman of the commerce and industry. chambers what is the number one issue to realize our ambitious plans? thank you and of course, let everyone will be fulfilled. thank you
