he organized an exhibition and performed there and put it as a dj in the center of the exhibition hall. uh, the fishing tent closed up in it and played music from there. it was. well, such a provocation above a smile. where else is yours? i want to become you the question is, how does he see it, this is the most beautiful thing. probably it is necessary to love it, but for the new generation of belarusians, watch on belarus 24 tv channel . go.

for malt, because of respect, i’ll wear a locol in harmony with nature belarus 204. word

the metropolitan from the television broadcast of the christmas time on divinized and on the guilt of the life of the church. today the clergy are closely sunny in the morning with twists of the media. oleg, too, adjusting and undermining this conscience was given to two-colored lights earlier in the walking part of the interview. we found out from the foreman of the synodal information impudent. i ’m practicing gt-1 to the belarusian exarchate and a bag to a collective person, those warehouses are adjusting susie with the timing of the media and a berry on a piece horse. pratyah razmovy for irey games

vasko guess release. and if censorship topics taboo when communicating with the media, or vice versa, and the media when covering some church issues of events topics. well, you know , formally speaking, of course they are. well , remember there in the nineties at the beginning of the 2000s it was fashionable to say that you need to leave, there censorship is freedom of speech. well, we now understand that this is the top, that is, in any case, always in any society. there is censorship. just wounds. somewhere they are wider , somewhere they do not shift, so, of course, there is censorship. well, to be specific. yes, here so that for 2 years there i met with such a situation when this censorship was needed. here to use, yes, and to say that this is to say this no, well, probably, well, in some minor matters. maybe it was. i can’t just remember specifically, but there were no serious questions, and i’m also talking about this. i thought for a long time and i think that,

probably, this is it, external censorship is needed, it is not needed. it is in any case, but here it is very important. such internal self-censorship. that is, if journalists professionally, and so to speak, personally educated, then there are no need for any external ones, there are some he himself understands where you can say where you can’t. what question should be asked. and where it may not be necessary, because it will be somewhat tactless there, in this situation. it all depends on professionalism and such personal moral spiritual qualities. and what projects are being implemented by the information department of the belarusian orthodox church? tell us more about them, please. you did not accidentally raise the issue. here is the state. yes, because people seems to be, yes, but the more these people. the wider the responsibilities become and the more ideas appear, therefore, in fact , we do not have enough people, because

there are quite a lot about it, so to speak, projects. well, on a daily basis, which are constantly being implemented, which should be there. there are projects that our department develops as part of some events or anniversaries, but most of the projects that we are currently working on are generally joint projects. and this is very interesting. yes, because there are a lot of projects that implemented with television, of course. well, it would probably be immodest to say that there the power of faith is a joint project. yes, it is clear that this is your project. yes, but anyway. we also participated in it as speakers. yes, we also cannot deny that your participation is in any way and somehow we believe that our contribution also goes a certain way. yes, there is, and you know that on bt-1 the program is true. interaction is also

a shrine of belarus, also a project that goes to bt-1 the word of the metropolitan is also ours so wonderful, one might say joint project, because yes, yes. and now , somewhere in september, we are implementing a very interesting project together with the channel. it is a transmission touch to the light. well, we also do it with the help of stv. thanks to their resources, but basically we do it . let's say we do it on our own. now we have ideas

where there is already a discussion on some joint projects on coint, because we constantly cooperate with them very closely. but i would like to do something like this regularly there, there are a lot of interesting projects within the framework of cooperation, but with printed ones because there is. for example , sb belarus today a wonderful project from the age of 21 is implementing the light. this is a project that tells about orthodox churches. the abode of their shrines is the second project from the hut of belarus that has been implemented since the age of 22. these are the holy lands of the russians, and this is a media project. that is, they have their own resources. yes, and now they are recording such videos, and very professionally, very important. for us. for everyone we consider a project that is implemented in conjunction with a bill. here

this was also the stage of its discussion, that is, the idea arose to tell about those clergymen who went through the great patriotic war, because in fact it is a very interesting topic, and so to speak, the secular world, and they don’t know much, because , well, in our view, the church is prayer. this is spiritual help. well, a soldier is a soldier. well, in fact , they are very many clergymen. someone would have participated in their actions, then they would have become a holy servant. someone like, for example, a my and my wife's grandfather. e, he was connected to help him as a partisan, already being a holy servant, and there are a lot of such examples. and so we decided to tell you that it has already come out, well, quite a lot of materials.

and in the end, we want to, well, even make a book, that is, when the material is gathered, we will make a book and very interesting projects are being implemented jointly with the pokrov on pokrov foundation , he is mainly engaged in such family topics and well, i’ll tell you about two important projects, in first, in september. we held the slavic forum of families, that is, forum where they gather. well, not only so to say, representatives of belarus are representatives of other countries. we had representatives from russia from kazakhstan, and, uh , about 500 people were present at this forum, and we were discussing exactly the question of promoting our society in just such a family theme of family values. well, we discussed. how can you resist. well, let's say the agenda that destroys the family. now it’s very unfortunately, but actually, in the framework of interaction with the background pokrov, we also had now it works. the project of creating social advertising is now in minsk, you can

see these banners there, for example, the family is an extension of you. uh, big family, you are always the winner of the family together the soul is in place. here is the social advertisement. it is also implemented with us. we consulted, we thought about the servants, because initially, but if you remember , when it came to the family agenda, well , we paid more attention to the negative, like, well, something against abortion. and here we are came to the conclusion that we need a negative and a positive , that is. why talk about something bad, right? let's talk about the fact that the family carries a person and these, well, joyful faces, yes, moreover, these are not staged on posters. no, not a single staged footage. it's all living people are alive real. and this project , so to speak, it both earned and began to play, so to speak, if in short our projects. although of course there is. what ideas? yes, it is very important

to say that together they brought down the television and radio company together. we are actually already we are completing the creation of the film belarus of finding the faith is a film that tells about the historical path of the orthodox church on the territory of our belarus, it has already been actually created. that is, now there are already agreements and i think that in the near future it will appear on tv screens, when you just took the post of chairman of the information department, and now already 2 years later. how have you changed your attitude to such obedience and the information department itself as a whole. well, i’ll say, honestly, some great desire to hold this position there, so that a person, as he slept and saw. yes, what i want to do is, of course, it wasn’t. although i already understood that, most likely, the bowls were being changed and the inner one was ready. and when i

was appointed, well, i reacted to it the way i used to treat it, well, to obedience. if vladyka consider that, well, i can handle this position if i am needed here, well, then you don’t have to strain yourself, and so let’s say, well , do it, especially since i had some experience, and i understood with whom i would work . that is, i already personally knew the summer of nikolaevich knew personally and our cooperators. that is , i already had experience of interacting with them. i understood already more or less. here's how i need to structure my work. well, of course, 2 years ago and now. well, i want to believe that i have grown professionally in terms of some personal changes. well, i also hope that i have become better, yes, but professionally, of course, for 2 years, when you are constantly start off? and what is the end? well? now it is sometimes

some intuitive level and this is an experience, that is, on the one hand. well, as we have already said, is it necessary from a spiritual point of view that a clergyman is not necessary, but in any case , this is some kind of professional experience that now helps . there, well, circumstances in the future, but in any case, this experience is already very valuable and will always be, so to speak, with me. but as far as the case, well really. here, when i had just arrived, but it was visible in that people are ready to work and people are working, but the problem was that there were not enough people, and we understood that there were a lot of projects to work a lot and the first thing we did. it was precisely here that they began to expand the staff and began to clearly define responsibilities, who did what, and when it became clear to us where something was missing. we began to ask for their people who, well, can occupy one or another

niche, and moreover, those employees who worked before began to come to us, that is, we have such employees who worked in this department for 10 years. someone worked. even 15 years. and that's very important. yes, they also came to us, someone stayed, someone came. that is, we now have continuity, that is, in fact. here are those who started back there in the middle of the 2000s. yes, they are now with us and experience. here it is very for us, what is valuable. well, i’ll also say that it’s very important such a human moment that you need to rest, you need to rest, and i saw that well, people really do. it's just, well, physically you're there by being emotional and physically and therefore, well, due to the fact that we have expanded this state. we give the opportunity to accommodate all this to relax and take a day off and some kind of vacation. although, of course, as far as the leadership is concerned, then it works very well. so, well, this is the specifics of the work, because,

well, how even. well, we do have certain days off, for example, by the diocesan administration. well, they do not apply to us, because the information is now such a century that, well, it doesn’t happen that people turn off. and they didn’t do anything, they didn’t read anything. that is, always always you have to be ready always you have to work, probably, the shift method then includes here, well, kind of yes yes yes, yes, yes. well, either you somehow connect some internal reserves and wait and hope that a week two three four will pass and it will still be. well, maybe get some rest. we understand you, i know that you have a very interesting pedigree. tell us a-a a little more about it. well, the pedigree, i guess it's really interesting, as much as it was interesting for me to find out my own. time, because, well, here is our family

in the female line. through the grandmother, it is connected with the family of the holy righteous and she is from kronstadt, and not only is she connected quite strongly, because his wife, that is, the wife of the holy righteous of kronstadt this is my great-aunt. that is, her own , brother - here we are a direct ancestor, and john of kronstadt at one time took the place of the protoria of konstantin nisvitsky in the st. andrew's cathedral in kronstadt, so this protoria konstantin esvitsky, he is my direct great-great- great-grandfather. yes, here is the water connection with father john, and we, of course, in the family very much honor and feel this and got acquainted with those people from russia, yes, who are also connected with my father and she is kronstadt, well, so to speak. it helps a lot spiritually. let's then a little closer

to acquaint our viewers with you. tell us about yourself, about your childhood, your development of spiritual life. how did you come to this or were you already laid down, including such ancestors, of course, we all come from childhood, as they say yes, strictly speaking. childhood i had such a completely ordinary life. i'm near the temple, by the way, right, well, our house was probably a meter twenty grams, well , until some time i didn’t go to the temple, it was, well, somehow i was an ordinary teenager to say that i was an unbeliever. no. i’ve always been a believer, well, let’s say there wasn’t such a deep interest in the church until a certain moment until the eleventh grade, but there, of course, they prayed for me in heaven , i ’m sure my grandmother celsius well directly on

i was brought to the temple, oddly enough, the closest friend. we were teenagers. it was the eleventh grade. and well, he somehow offered me a very long conversation with him. and at first i somehow resisted. he also joked like that, somewhere there were even such jokes on the verge. well, in general, i deeply respected him, because he was very smart. and by the way, he became a doctor of science, he is a physicist. uh, now he lives and works in holland . well, uh, he is so smart and with a physical bias. he was already there and now we are talking about faith. was not just there well, let's go to the temple, we need to stop doing nonsense there. well, here we were talking there at the level of some kind of philosophical at the scientific level. and well, somehow it felt that well, that's all it says and that's it. what there opened the gospel read. well, somehow, well, that's all, it's true, and then, when we began to go to the temple, of course, and after some time we were invited to the altar,

the clergy began to help him not just like that, they began to pray at the temple, they got tired participate in the life of the parish. i was even sunday school director in the nineties, but in parallel i was still studying at the university in the history department. so , after graduating from school, i decided not to enter the seminary until i was ready at the seminary and really wanted to go in science, but in the fourth year. i went to zhirovichi, heard a horror seminary. i stayed there and decided no. i still want to be a priest even after graduation. i remember i had a conversation with bishops tampolit philaret. i would tell me that you will finish first then later. come on, if you don't change your mind about seminaries, i won't changed his mind enrolled in the seminary. so, while studying at the seminary, he married and became

a clergyman. in 2003, your first specialty, a secular specialty, was related to socio-political disciplines. what can you say about the modern social and political life of our society. well, you know, even though i'm a clergyman yes, but here's the first education. it always makes itself felt, because even when i entered the seminary. i have always wanted to do theology. it was interesting to read something but i always returned to some kind of social political issues , i have both work in the seminary and work as a candidate, it was connected with the social political thought of the russian orthodox church. that is, it is with this dimension . and at the moment at the academy i teach the subject of the history of political doctrines. that is , i could not

get away with this profession, so to speak, and i have always been interested in it. i always read something and tried, well, somehow to be as they say now in the trend and for the modern ones. well i won't say so cunning for modern situations. i constantly follow, and it seems to me that i have a certain view of him. although i try, since the clergyman talk about it. we say that not often. although i won't open it here, a bicycle. we already see that now is the time, but it’s not just that the times are easy, in fact, in our history there were very few of them , but there were few of them. eh, it's not just difficult, but very important in terms of what is being decided now, when everything will develop further in general. that is, we live indeed, in an era of some kind of turning point. and on how these or those issues are now resolved, so to speak, world politics will depend not only in the life of our country in this life, the forces of the world, well, how about

the clergy? of course, we understand that now it is necessary not only to think, to think, to argue, to pray for the necessary. because from prayer yes, here is some kind of such a serious spiritual life. now a lot depends. and here i was listening to a lecture by a man, an unbeliever. who was thinking about the fact that now is such an epoch, a time of change and that's it. that's right on the verge, or everything will be bad, or, well, we really will move on to some new world and we will continue to develop. and this atheist, i don’t see anything, said that now the deed of an individual person is especially important. strange as it may seem, marx is right, but when everything develops more or less on the eve, then it is clear that to be and knowledge is determined there, well, an individual person, does not solve anything. but as soon as the era of change comes. you understand that now there are several vectors of development and they are all approximately equivalent and they are the same. and where

we will move, maybe it will depend on the act of one person for our country , such a period of political turbulence began back in 2020. how do you , as a clergyman, as a person who is in the temple, who communicates with people, had to cope then, because you seem to be well informed in terms of politics, let's say. so, you own very deeply this information. well, at the same time. that's how you say, you are a confessor a person who should be with a person regardless of his views, how then did you have to maneuver into that time. i have already worked with the same information. i perfectly understood how, in general, in principle, uh, everything, it works, and therefore, well, as clergymen. i called people. that's it . at the moment, pray more. they make some such hasty decisions and do not draw conclusions, like a person

who works with information i do. he also urged not to immediately draw any conclusions from what they read and see. because i already knew that there was manipulation. and a lot of people. and quite healthy. so let's say. well, these sins to some extent even i at that time, but they were subject to these manipulations, but when a person sees this one thing, he sees that he is being manipulated, and can he somehow respond to this? at least just turn off the phone and go to pray , or just go outside to sit and think, and then i called people to just think, think think and think and not rush at that moment, well , there really was a time when i personally would say it was scary, because i'm like a historian. i knew perfectly well what

happened in the seventeenth year, i knew perfectly well what happened during other revolutions and well, i apparently explained that no euphoria. you are some kind of euphoria well, read what happened in february of the seventeenth year there is a wonderful poet maximilian voloshin and he has an article, in my opinion, called russia crucified, where he talks about his impressions of february of the seventeenth year. and so i saw that, well, there really is a lot in common, of course, on some scale, maybe less. yes, nevertheless, the parallels were very much, i advised many people to read this particular article in order to take a sober look at what is happening around. and this is sobriety and prayerfulness and caution, it is very many. now you combine your secular specialty and spiritual specialty together in teaching. eh, as you already mentioned that in

the theological academy you just have a direction, it seems, what is interesting for you. this is your obedience. well, you know recently. there was a conversation between us, but he didn’t say that dad is good at teaching. ie this yours and me indeed. well it's always i liked it, because on the one hand it makes you constantly think , constantly develop, constantly read something, because, well, i really noticed that it’s just to read what you are interested in. well, somehow here. yes. tomorrow i will read it, in a year, i will read it, in 10 years i will read it, and here lies the book. yes, 10 years. you cannot start it as soon as you are preparing for lectures. yes, when you understand what you need, then prepare the material and immediately start working and no longer put it off. well, communication, because when you communicate, well, so to speak, with peers of one, when you communicate with young people, but this is already completely different. that is, well, let's say for development, well, this is a huge

impulse. that is, you do not age? thank you very much for our conversation. thank you very much for your interest. detachments are probably the most popular

youth movement, how can one explain such popularity, and how does this our belarusian movement live today? well, you know , literally speaking, how the noble movement lives today, then all 100 of the republic in anticipation of the opening of the third working semester in the city of minsk well, of course , and we, both the organizers and the guys, seem to understand the importance of the significance of this year, this year is still the anniversary year of the sixtieth anniversary of belarusian student gifts, and we, of course, have a high degree of responsibility. this is also a good example of what is successful and best, that we have preserved the soviet period from the komsomol and, of course, thanks to the colossal support of the head of state. we have not only preserved, but also brought to a new quality level. the work of student teams is also such important and iconic objects that you know, there is the belarusian nuclear power plant, the memorial complex of the hut, last year our guys built the facilities of the eastern cosmodrome over 8,000 km, the amur region, and this did not become a hindrance, the guys worked well and a number of others, of course, but this is also emphasized in

the number of people who were employed only last year. we were able to employ over 42,000 people, but we also see today that the request, both from employers and from the youth side is only increasing for the work of a strategic detachment, what do you propose? where are the guys? it will be possible to work, but also in what profile to apply oneself, besides the medical caprice, they said, well, we are talking about the fact that in our country there are 7 profiles of detachments. i have already called it medical construction e, production pedagogical service agricultural and environmentally friendly, so any young person. it can find a use for its interests in its profile, of course. hmm we emphasize that decree of the head of state. e, determines the work of the student team not only in the summer, but on a year-round basis from january 1 to december 31. there is such an opportunity, and today we have more than 6,000 student teams. but, of course, we will be involved in all areas. we have only today heard 38.000. there are places for

student groups to work throughout the republic. this is just the beginning of the years, this list will continue to expand, therefore, along with projects. we will continue to implement what we have defined strategies. these are republican major labor projects. this is massy and atlant and mtz for the first time this year we signed an agreement and 200 people will work for us in gomel at the gonselmash. eh, cooperation with the belarusian railways has reached a new level, hundreds of guys will work for the first time as conductors of a passenger car, track fitters, but in general, of course, they work in the regions, so the summer promises to be traditionally full of intense labor, but also very interesting. how actively is developing today international such, here is cooperation in this student plan, well, i can note that we are actively working on international cooperation and, you know, both domestic and foreign employers. they want to see a belarusian student in their ranks, our belarusian student teams.
