belarus 24 tv channel . hello, my name is yulia semenchenko i have arrived i work live in brest from the moscow region. been here

for almost five years now. i came to belarus directly to brest from moscow, or rather, even from the moscow region, i am like a muscovite here. i came to work to head the russian center for science and culture, which, in principle, i have been doing for almost 5 years. i was born in the most ordinary family. my mother has been an elementary school teacher all her life. she worked at the school. now. she is, of course, already memorized a person very busy and very energetic. dad worked all his life as a driver i didn't have diplomatic roots in my family because my fate just happened that i started to engage in this activity, but at the same time i have two grown-up sons. sons. one of them works and has three higher educations, and the second is studying at mgimo and i guess. so this dynasty, probably

diplomatic, will start with me. here are my sons, in principle, focused on this work, work in the international field about the russian federation abroad, and i wish, of course, great success in this, so that all their plans and all their ideas come true. for me. this is important for a mother. well, as for any mother, the success of her children is more important than the success itself. my children, of course, come to me very often. the youngest son is with me. he lived here for the first year, until he graduated from school, studied in the person of pushkin, he really liked brest, and of course, first of all, when the eldest son and the youngest son arrived. we went to the brest fortress. this is definitely the place to go first . ah, she came to me, my grandmother really liked them here in belarus, they were. naturally, in minsk they were with me in grodno, they were impressed by these cities, their beauty of their architecture, and not so long ago , my sister came to me. a year ago, in the spring it was already

very warm, of course, when you come from moscow, it's still winter there. and here spring is already starting to bloom. it's incredible and plus hmm the atmosphere is plus with the nature of belarus - it conquers absolutely everyone . belarus is sick of all those who have been here with me, in fact, that's from the heart from the heart. and they don’t even compare with some other countries, because here some kind of unique atmosphere unique people located very friendly very hospitable very clean city. this is celebrated by absolutely everyone, and delicious cuisine, of course, is also important and nature. here are storks, of course, well, captivates the heart of everyone, of course, i fell in love with brest with all my heart and all my soul. i feel at home here. uh, since i've been living here already, well , quite a long time yes, almost 5 years and for i know everyone's street. i know every

house here. i know these people. in fact, brest has become for me the most dear, very dear city, and i always regret, to be honest, i think that someday i will have to return to belarus people. just unique it really is. i say without any flattery without any pathos, i am always amazed by these people with their altruism. first of all. i travel a lot around the country in the brest district in the brest region and everywhere i came across people who, with an open mind, do business in an hour, without any additional financial support. this is a very important thing to do, from the heart from the heart they invest there all their possible resources are often unsupported. yes, no support. well, they just get sick of doing it, and it captivates me. and in fact, belarus is based on such people. i get to know them. everywhere the museum we go to some museum. this is the director of the museum. this is some ordinary person. it's uh, the deputy is a public figure. people put their

souls and hearts into the cause that is necessary for the people for their country. and this is actually very expensive, and for this i love and appreciate the belarusians. first of all, of course. we are glad to welcome you to the russian science center culture, this building has already existed since 2014 . in general, for quite a long time next year we will celebrate the tenth anniversary of our center, which of course we are very happy and glad that you got to us, that you look at our location. look at our possibilities. get to know us with my colleagues and find out what we do and what are our main goals and tasks and in general about us, probably get to know us as people with ordinary people a boy next day an orphan in a curiosity suit who

had not been since i settled in, a strange city visitor, who turned out to be so angry with him. now yesterday's songs of this guest bought the boy. we also have a cinema. it's a concert hall. we have a library. maybe it's not quite big, but nevertheless, cozy a lot of fiction literature in the first place, we get this literature from moscow as well. we pass it on to our partners. these are sharp grodno schools - this is a museum. this is a public organization. these are libraries. we are trying to equip. e them so that presents now, uh, modern russian publishing house, a lot of good books. first of all, children's books come to our library, and children and adults can come absolutely anyone from the street to sign up to become our direct partners, even often friends. by the way, here are those who

come to us first for books, then they offer us some of their events , projects, there is such a story too. you can take this book. you can come to us or write us a letter to ask us to hand over these books, something teachers often do. accordingly, today we received an application from one of the schools so that we donate books. in general, it’s like this, uh, the work is very interesting and, most importantly, it is in demand, because you understand books are always in demand, no matter how they say that now they may be reading less and children are more sitting on gadgets, but they don’t read. no , a book is always very popular, every child wants to take a book, especially a new one, when it still smells of printing ink open see pictures inhale its aroma and enjoy russian literature in the russian center, of course, they give gifts and very often artists gather at our site. here, one of the gifts that was received from a russian artist to

a contemporary artist who now lives in belgium. he has some of this painting standing there, it is so unusual . avant-garde. i would call it that. she is mars and-and our main task. so that we hang this picture, because it has some very positive powerful bright energy. here, on the second floor, she meets you at the russian center for the science of culture. here we have. uh, there are several classrooms and an educational and methodological center, including where the guys study the russian language , and prepare for admission to russian universities. they study history. one of our classes, where the guys gather here every evening. directly study the russian language. russian universities of the class are equipped. as you can see, all the necessary equipment is here. well, how are all our rooms? and it's also multi-format. we often here we are going with the guys. we participate in round tables. we participate in some

international projects. connecting not so long ago to a forum, for example, on the battle of stalingrad, which took place in several countries, and moscow was the main platform here . sometimes we also have small film screenings. proritative for the guys from the colleges, in general, this is such any of our sites. not only that, but any of our offices, it has many formats, and we work. e with the guys on these sites in absolutely different ways, not so long ago we hosted media literacy forum u guys, uh, and their work on the internet. uh, social media and the forum. e, he occupied absolutely everything from the cinema halls, and e. all the offices, the guys sat down in the sections with them, they worked as journalists, bloggers worked with them. this was also our first experience. very interesting and i hope that it will continue. now the center has courses in the russian language and history, since the difference in the programs of the russian belarusian one is insignificant, but nevertheless there are guys in order

to fill this gap, those guys who plan to enter russian universities , they use this opportunity to come to our courses, and every year we have more and more cadets, which we certainly have. we have very good teachers who have been with us for many years, who have been working together for many years, so i hope that ah, they will get good experience here and good knowledge in order to implement them in the future. this is a class on the study of the history of world history. the history of russia the history of belarus since our history is closely connected, then the guys are here fill in some gaps that they have in the history of russia, probably more and a little more gaps in world history. this is one of our working rooms directly. now we are in our press center. here we gather in this space with our partner journalists, bloggers, who want to discuss with us some of their questions, problems, some of their proposals.

here we gather with our team directly discussing also many working issues and problems occur live communication appointment. i received in moscow i was the head of belarus moldova ukraine at that time it was still ukraine with us and was directly involved in this work. after returning. having worked from chisinau. there for 5 years i am very glad that i have been working in brest for 4 1/2 years. i hope that i will work here for some more time, because the plans are huge. they do not end, they only increase the spectrum of work is growing partnership friendship with people with breeches. with in general as a whole in the region in the first place. we are promoting russian culture, of course, there are a lot of projects. these are projects in the city, we have a lot of partners. and in general in the region. yes, these are exhibitions. these are some movie screenings. this concerts are a lot of projects, probably very difficult. they are even now covered not so long ago in the twenty -first year, i always talk about it, because

they consider it a kind of our brainchild of our team. in brest, we made a ural dedicated to major gavrilov on the wall of one of the houses on gavrilov street. to my defenders of the brest fortress this is their own kind. our memory is our pride, and we wanted to make this project, including in terms of attracting young people. we have another very interesting project for young people - this is, of course, our quota company. the russian federation provides for international students. every year more than 30.000. quota we are talking now only about the budget, that is, uh, guys from other countries can go to study in russian universities , of course, the most worthy of the best guys and get a good education there russian education has always been quoted it has always was popular all over the world. i want to note that for belarusians this quota has grown significantly. literally, four or five years ago there were

70-90 quotas in total for the entire republic this year 1,300. quotas are provided for applicants. this, of course, is great, and we are glad that the guys can go to study at russian universities in a completely different direction, because the first question, which, of course, is always passed. and where to go? which university, which direction, and all these nuances begin. i want to say that all directions are represented in this dense company from creative, relatively speaking, vocals yes, finishing medicine, how it works guys register on a certain platform education and russia and this is the site where they go to choose the direction that they are interested in and after they have poured in some of their data , yes, then the areas that they want there are faculty and a list of universities that a particular program represents these universities can be a large number and the entrant must choose six. universities by priority here in belarus we we are carrying out the first stage of this quota

company. that is, we select the most deserving guys, send a package of documents with them to minsk, where a working commission is held with the participation, and a representative of the russian universities of the ministry of education of the republic of belarus , my colleagues and i directly participate, and after that, a package of documents with these 1,300 guys goes to the ministry of education of russia and is distributed among those universities that they have chosen for themselves. the competition certainly exists; it has always existed now. uh, a little less because the quotas are increased, but the guys use it. we want to wish them success, so that they enter, so that they fulfill their dream. we are always happy. they come to us. they studied there for half a year, for example, or a year always comes and they say, you know, we didn’t believe, we didn’t believe in this story. we thought that it was something fantastic, that it was something impossible, but this is far from me. not capable, yes, i often underestimate ourselves. and when we entered the most famous university of the russian

bauman. also, by the way, technical directions are used there and, well, any other, and we are now studying, and there and still cannot believe it, and we receive this feedback - this, of course, is worth a lot, because we understand that the child will receive a good education . why is he now in the conditions that he dreamed of, and he was striving for this ? in general about our tasks, then, of course, this is primarily a movement of russian culture, because people are close to russian culture here in belarus, but i want to say, because i worked in other countries in general. in russian culture. always been interesting at different points never in her life. i didn't regret my choice of what i did. work, probably, on the contrary, i consider myself a very lucky person, because not everyone gets such a chance to do this work. and often

my loved ones my family do not understand this understand my suitcase mood. yes , when you are sitting on boxes, you are going to go somewhere again, my mother tells me so, i can’t imagine how you sat here again , went again on these boxes. it's there to rebuild to arrange life. well, it's all complicated. i can't imagine my life in one place. although i love my hometown very much . i'm from moscow region a and it's not difficult for me to come home. i'm a year or two passes and i have something that's starting to know inside podnachit. i understand that i need to go somewhere. i need change the situation. i need to communicate with other people. i need to be in a different space, so i never regretted that i had such a chance to do this job. i am very grateful, and to the people who helped me at some certain stages. i am very grateful to fate, something has happened to me. of course, which somehow or other led me to this, probably already after a while. you begin to understand that this, that, that, and some kind of points are such reference points, on

which you are somehow make me happy. uh, what, i've been doing this and hopefully many more years. i will be doing this. and there are, of course, nuances that, uh, oh, which i regret, each of us has. yes, i regret, for example, that i studied few languages. right now already. yes , i feel that if i knew more, there are two or three languages, it would help me. and when you know the language, do you know the culture of the people? yes, this is interesting, and in this i lived, i regret that maybe i didn’t learn some hmm playing musical instruments in my time, and uh, i don’t have, unfortunately rumor. that's but i would like to be able to play that a little more, probably had to study the art of world art, sometimes. i feel like there is some kind of deficiency. e knowledge in this area, but nonetheless. i'm sure it's work.

maya, the current work has given me a lot and i am happy to be diplomats to serve for the benefit of my fatherland now we have come to the brest fortress , probably everyone knows the exploits of the defenders of the brest fortress, and this place is dear to each of us and to me, of course, of course, too, when i arrived to brest first without unpacking the suitcases of the box. i came here, it was literally the same day the day of my arrival. and i couldn't help it, really. this is the place of our common strength, our common dinners, because it was here in brest that the victory was forged, which was made from may 9 , 41, 45 from this very place with the heroic defense of the brest fortress by those people who were here for almost months pyotr gavrilov and

perfectly you know, he fought until almost the end of july, when hitler thought that he will cover the whole of brest in 2 hours and move on. this place is important to me and valuable to me because both my grandmother and my grandfather, alexander artyomovich berezhkov. berezhkov. maria kuzmishna. these are my relatives, my grandmother, paternal grandfather, they fought through the whole war. grandmother left at the age of 18, volunteered for the war, reached prague. fortunately, she was not wounded and was a corporal. she spoke little about the war, as, probably, all our veterans did. they try not to talk about it to everyone. at least because it hurts. it has always been very difficult. it's always been very tragic. i managed to learn so much from her, and from those terrible years of military

hardship. well, i remember one of her memories , she told how they were very young, young girls. hmm, they illuminated enemy planes, how they fired at them, in spite of everything, these huge searchlights continued their work after many years. i went to the website feat of the people, and began to read about my children, whom i knew well. yes, he lived a long life, but he never told what he did. i have learned that he was a sapper, he has many awards, including mine clearance, and for me it was. actually a revelation, i didn't know how heroic he was as a person. and i think that in the family of each of us and the russians there are belarusians. there are such stories, and our grandfathers. oh, our grandmothers. eh, great-grandfathers fought and shed blood for our present, which we live for

our peaceful present, good, happy, and now, when someone is trying, but to distort history. yes, to falsify it, someone says that, probably, you need already from move away from this. it is necessary, perhaps, to forget or not to talk about it so often. i am always amazed at this, because it still hurts in me and it is strong in me, as in each of our people. it's a genetic memory, it hasn't gone anywhere. and when i hear a song , holy war, i get goosebumps, yes, a horse in my throat and it cannot be otherwise, and i know that it is in my children. therefore the brest fortress this is a fantastically powerful place a fantastically powerful place where everyone should visit

skip here. it is imperative to bring your children, be sure brest land still keeps the bodies of the defenders of their fatherland, the defenders of the soviet union , they are still being found, they are still being raised from the ground and their names are being restored and perpetuated, and this is actually a colossal big work that is being carried out as a state so public figures and this should be dealt with, and this should be talked about, as many young people as possible should be involved in this, because perpetuating the memory of the defenders of their fatherland. this is probably our most important task, such an immutable true one, if we do not know our stories, if we forget it, we are doomed to repeat these mistakes. again, there is nothing more valuable than peace on earth. we all understand this very well, these are not some banal words. all our families have survived. the horrors of that war remember this very well,

so each of us must strive to preserve this world for ourselves and for future generations. and it is at this point that i would like to wish our peoples the peoples belarus russia peace, goodness, well-being, prosperity, so that we still retain all our moral spiritual guidelines, which are just presented here in the brest fortress, so that we pass on to the next generations to our children. yes to their grandchildren the power of our countries is our moral. uh, deep strong character and love for

his mother's life. our main task is to make an adult child laugh easier than an adult, because an adult has a lot of his own problems , a lot of his own thoughts, and when they bring children to the circus, they go for the sake of the children. and
