[000:00:00;00] i was in my last year when we had chemistry in the program in the third quarter, if i’m not mistaken, i attended only two lessons, probably in the entire quarter, athletes very often, well, receive an education, probably not to the fullest, and well, accordingly, their results outside of sports are much worse than those of guys who can go to school all the time, attend studies, and be fully engaged in this. i think that this is precisely the opinion that follows from this, but i’ll tell you honestly , they often think about me like that, they often say that i’m with i don’t entirely agree with this, but at the same time, when i talk to young athletes , i constantly tell them that you must study well, you must realize that studying is very important, because if you fail in sports, you can always have a profession, in my opinion, i will probably

help, well, at least, if not... this stereotype, then at least break it, were you an obedient child or a bully as a child? i very often had bad behavior at school, i was reprimanded diary, and my parents certainly raised me and fought, so, probably , so that my children would not hear, i would have to say that i was obedient, but again i emphasize that today we are having an honest conversation, so more often i had bad behavior, again, sport helped me in this regard, and helped, disciplined me, thank you for your frank answer, and let’s move on to the purple sector , hello, sergey, my name is daria, i have the following question: please tell me what sacrifices you made for the sake of sports at first of my career, i think high school students will understand

me, i had no life, except, in principle, school and training, that is, we even , uh, i couldn’t, fully, fully celebrate my graduation from school, i didn’t have a student life, and well, of course, since about the seventh grade, in principle , i no longer had the life that ordinary children live, that is, after school, go out somewhere for a walk with friends, go somewhere, somewhere go, i didn’t have that anymore, i had school, training, and competitions, it was such a constant rhythm, we had two training sessions every day, this was probably the biggest sacrifice, i have a surprise for you , can i give you a graduate ribbon, it will be very nice, thank you, now you are also a graduate, thank you very much, now i i also became a graduate, well, you see, we can catch up, thank

you very much, we move on to the next question, yellow sector, remember your first victory, what were your feelings then? the first victory, but it wasn’t, it probably wasn’t, a medal like this, uh, we had a very serious selection for the sports class, this is 20 people, in the class we had uh, plus or minus 1,500 people, we had training there, and we understood everything and talked to the guys. which one of us will get into the sports class? that is, for all of us there was such a dream, to get there, i dreamed of getting into the sports class, but everyone told me that you won’t get in, there will be someone else to play there, then it turned out that from the whole team, here in in the school where we studied, only i got into shabanah, and this was a great joy for me, such a great

incentive for the future, that is, i got into sports class didn’t... didn’t think that that’s it, i already have everything, i’ve achieved everything, but i realized that for me this is only proof that i’m on the right path, and i need to move forward, and if victory ceases to be significant, does this mean that you have to leave the sport? well, i’ll be honest, i don’t know a single athlete who would treat medals as insignificant, there could be different factors, injuries could affect them, some other things could affect them, at least for some. while he has strength, someone wants to leave the port at the peak of his form or there, well, not the very peak, probably, but there in such a state close to peak form, so that people would not see him already barely running there and say, he used to play well, but now he has become weak , so this is not related to the significance of the competition, the more significant factor is

age and injuries. we move on to the black sector. in one of your interviews, you said that grigory played an important role in ending your sports career. please tell me about this story, i already understood that my career had passed the peak of my age, i’ll be honest, i was afraid of what would happen to me after sports, my contract with barça was ending, i was thinking what would happen next, where to go, move, stay, well, there are a lot of such thoughts, i have to at that moment i already had a daughter, and these thoughts were constantly spinning, spinning, spinning in my head, one day i washed my face in the morning, shaved, and music was playing, i think this happens to many people, you when music can play in your thoughts, but we don’t hear it, the song

lepsa is there, go away gracefully and live happily, so he sings, i listen to it, and it comes right in parallel with my thoughts, leave or don’t leave, as if he was answering me, go away gracefully? and live happily, then something clicked for me , i just got out of the shower to my wife, i say, you know, i probably made a decision, it’s such a coincidence, or it’s fate, probably, but it’s just in my head i decided for myself, well, you can say with this song, then one more question: do you believe in signs of fate? basically i i would probably say that i’m not a superstitious person, but i certainly pay attention to the fact that two numbers often haunt me, these are 14 and 22, i always came across them, i never chose numbers on t-shirts, well,

these numbers always come across, i have two children, even children were born on these dates, a daughter was born on the fourteenth, a son on the twenty-second, that’s why , of course, well, of course i pay attention to such moments, sergey, turn left, purple sector, hello, my name is gleb, you remember your last last game, you we understood that you would not go on the court there again, we played qualifications for access to the european championship, and the match turned out to be difficult, we played with the latvian national team at the end of the match they awarded a penalty, and i understood that this was all figuratively, my last 10 - there seconds. games as part of the national team, the belarusian team, i looked at the guys , i said who would take the penalty, i wanted to give them the opportunity, because if we win, the team goes to the championship, the european championship, and i understand that that’s it, i already with

i won’t go as a team, i was then in the status of captain of the national team, so the guys said , sergei, you should do this, i was excited, i scored this penalty, the team moved on, left, i said goodbye to them. and most importantly, my conscience was clear before the fans, before the teams where i competed, before our national team, because i understood what i did, made every effort to achieve maximum results, what feelings does an athlete have when is he retiring? well, in my case it was something like this, i say peace when you have done everything, and you can exhale, because this is a constant thing... others immediately begin, you are constantly in some kind of race, it is interesting, it constantly spurs you on, keeps you on your toes,

but the end of my career, for me the last match was just an opportunity to exhale, but i had many friends who shed tears, cried, they had to be calmed down, even if you saw the last match, they all cried, because that federer was finishing his career, it probably depends on the person’s envy. we are happy to continue telling you. about the cities of belarus, the starting point of our route, like most tourists, is the station square, the author’s routes, it’s hard to believe, but once upon a time there were centuries-old forests on this land, and here also passed the largest ivoryak trade route in greece,

the most mysterious places, in the heart of broadway is a unique clock, initially there were no hands on it, later they appeared, but the clock never showed the correct time , interesting myths and legends, here on in the central square, under the asphalt , a unique paving stone has been preserved; it was brought here in soviet times from the krevsky castle, see the program of the city of belarus. on our tv channel. belarus is dynamically developing interregional cooperation with russian regions. today we are on the list of key partners of the pskov region, issues of transport communication are being resolved, import substitution is being worked out. experts call the current time the battle for africa. the continent is gradually cleared of the colonialists of the past and is ready for cooperation. africa is objective, our field of possibilities. with us. can and want to cooperate. the nato countries almost

immediately decided to conduct exercises in the baltic and black seas. during the maneuvers , landing operations and strikes from the sea on land will be practiced. we invite the polish military to our training: refusal in exchange for helicopter provocation. we do it without visas, we get closed borders. someone else has the impression that we are pushing it. main topics on the main broadcast. watch on the tv channel belarus 24. next is the yellow sector, who is ready to ask a question. hello sergey, my name is danila. i heard that you used to have problems with

excess weight, please advise how to lose weight? well, during, during sports, i didn’t have any problems, i started having them just after sports, because the metabolism changes, uh, the load on the body changes, uh, i reduced the number of workouts, the first year was almost zero, but how to deal with this, nutrition, in principle you can eat everything, but you need to in moderation, you need to... understand if there is today i’ve eaten too much, tomorrow i need to eat a little less, and some kind of physical activity , again, i emphasize again, adequate, so a little movement, one might say, physical education and careful eating, something like that, but how exactly did you lose weight? i ate less and ran more, i heard that big sport is not about health. do you agree with this? i absolutely

agree. there are a lot of injuries, uh, very high competition, and plus my, in particular my sport, it is very contact, very traumatic, so of course, yes, this for about if we talk about health, then this is physical education, it strengthens , it is the tone of the body, because you better you feel more... charged throughout the day, but if we talk about professional about professional sports, of course, this is definitely not about health , i completely agree with this, but what is big sport then, big sport is about victory, first of all, over oneself, as i already said, a very difficult path, interesting, thanks to big sport, i learned four languages, i

have , to the whole world, plus, very nice, everyone athletes strive for this, to compete at international competitions to defend the honor of the country, to show that i am a belarusian, and when once you stand on the pedestal in first place, they hang a gold medal on you, you understand, those feelings that overwhelm you, the feelings of those people , for whom, who are rooting for you, this just covers everything, big sport is probably just about these feelings and about victory over oneself, the black sector, we turn around again, at school you dyed your hair green- red, why? you are very well-informed, well, i think that at this age, we are all a little rebellious and such, we want to somehow... show ourselves, somehow

distinguish ourselves, it was probably this kind of youthful, probably maximalism, and just the desire, probably, to stand out, and of course, the big one made a splash there when he came to get his certificate at school. purple sector, good afternoon, my name is varvara, in your biography it is written that your parents divorced as... yes, you were a teenager, my parents are also getting divorced, how can i get over this? oh, well, of course it is difficult moments in life, uh, but if i look back and remember those feelings that were certainly there, i

think every child in such a situation has a grudge against one of their parents, i would the only thing that would he said, remembering this situation, i had what was happening, try to understand my parents and not cross out or get angry at any of them, time will put everything in its place in the future, i hope, god willing, that it will happen that there will still be at least communication with each of the parents, but where is love leaving? where she goes, i don’t know the exact address, unfortunately, when people meet and fall in love with each other, this is the first impulse, it is probably the most powerful, it is so strong, very often people in love can do such

things that in a normal state he would never have done this, a person can move mountains in this state, when every day we... when people still break up after this, if i find out where she goes, i will definitely tell you, okay, next, red sector, sergey will have to turn around, hello, sergey, after the divorce of your mother, mother and father, i know that you lived with your mother. have you talked to dad? well, unfortunately, my life turned out in such a way that our ties were severed and there was no communication, but why didn’t you make peace with him? i tried, but unfortunately it didn’t work out, why is it difficult for me to say, i wish that no one, of course

, would find themselves in such moments or experience such moments, but unfortunately, this is probably a utopia, and at least i wish that there would remain... communication with parents, because both mom’s and dad’s opinions are important for children, but i have this unfortunately, this happened, i tried to make peace, but why it didn’t work out , it’s hard for me to say, hello, my name is vlad, they say that without a male upbringing , children become sons of the moment, is this true? my upbringing was probably mostly done by professional sports, and these were my first coaches that i had, they replaced my parents, in principle , this is often what happens in professional sports, children spend more time with the coach than with parents, and since i was a team sport,

of course, sports also educated me in terms of how to live in a team, how to communicate, how to communicate with teammates, and gave me many friends. and comrades, in my opinion, this is more of this, such a prejudice, it is not necessary, if there is no male upbringing , the child will become his mother’s child, what kind of father are you, i probably need to ask my children this, they are right here, sergey, let’s do this let's do it, please give me a microphone, let's get to know your children, can you introduce them, eldest daughter... nika, youngest son egor, nika and egor, tell us everything the truth about your dad, just honestly, how strict he is, maybe i should come out so that i don’t embarrass them, well, dad, he can be strict, well, i don’t really consider him a strict,

strict father, dad knows how to make us laugh there some sad moments, also dad, as usual. he comes tired, he, unfortunately, has a lot of work , so we try not to touch him, so that he can rest, because it’s like a person works there from morning to night, plows, that’s all it takes to feed us, but egor, tell me which one is yours? dad, and he can scold me, but he can still be kind if i listen to him. do you love your dad? i love my dad very much, i think that he is the best, because my dad gave me everything, i respect him very much, i love him very much, he is a successful person, and i am very

happy for him and proud of him, and i also love dad very much, because he is very kind, with mom , but, but they can quarrel, of course, and this only says that sergei, you have a beautiful, absolutely ordinary, simple, human, happy... family, thank you we move on to the purple sector, how you proposed to your wife, and in an unusual way, by phone, at that time i was in slovenia, playing for a slovenian club, and she had just finished her studies and was living in minsk at that time, so and we both understood that we wanted to be together, but there are bureaucratic issues, such as visas and everything else, so taking into account all

such aspects, i told her what i was saying, we need to sign and get married, live together, marry me married, she says: okay, come, let’s get married, that’s it, that’s how it happened, how do you know if you’re ready to live with a person for the rest of your life? well, it was probably a little easier for me, since we lived far from each other, and i thought about her all the time, i thought all the time that i wanted us to be together, probably, well, in our case it played distance, but the fact that we were far away from each other, and this made us realize that we want to be together, we move to red. sector will have to turn 180°. in in one of your interviews you said that

handball is a genetically close sport to belarusians, how is that? handball is a team sport. uh, belarusians, in principle, by their nature, are kind people who are always responsive and help each other, that is, these are just one of the most important qualities for a good team, and we have a lot of strong guys who are exactly what we need in in handball, historically it has already happened that we have a lot of olympic champions still in the soviet union national team, namely from belarus and the aspect that the backbone of the union team was belarusians just means that we have very good roots, very good traditions of this sport, and of course, this only gets stronger with each generation, because new guys, who come to handball, they recognize those who... before and what successes they had, for him this is already some kind of additional motivation, confidence when they say: belarusians play handball well, well,

naturally everyone is already thinking, yeah, that means i can do it too, we move on to yellow sector, hello, my name is yaroslav, i know that you have a brother, i have one too, in childhood we often quarreled with him, competed or fought, my mother scolded us for this, and i would like to know in your childhood there were times when you and your brother competed or fought when we were children, this always happened to us, we constantly fought, swore, now that i have children, i constantly say, stop swearing, that well, this is inevitable, this is the human factor, this is in my opinion okay, at the moment, what kind of relationship do you have, there are some omissions, well, we communicate with him, circumstances and life have turned out that everyone is somehow busy with their own affairs and does not get to see each other so often, there is a lot of work, he is engaged in providing for his family, i am doing the

same thing, so normal human relationships, what do you consider a healthy lifestyle, in your opinion, sports. taught me to feel my body, and a healthy lifestyle is when we know how, in my opinion, when we know how to feel our body and understand what i need now, that is, if i need some kind of emotional reboot , figuratively, to leave the city, to be alone, this is a very important moment for a healthy psychological state, of course, these are... bad habits, you should always get rid of them try to get rid of it. sergey, tell me, what bad habits do you have? are you

sure? and i have the option not to answer. how curious it is to know what you are hiding, but nevertheless you took the opportunity, the rules are the rules. mister presenter, i, uh, i think that children probably shouldn’t know about my bad habits, i ’m not hiding it, but in my opinion, after all , guys, guys, well, at least you shouldn’t voice it to me, you have this is your complete right, this is your first refusal to answer the question. let's turn to the red sector, turn 180°. hello, sergey, my name is ksenia, i have the following question for you: you have such an interesting life, why don’t you have an instagram account? well, since i'm

a little older, i lived in a time when there were no instagrams, there were no social networks, when all this... to gain popularity, we had young guys on the team, i remembered such an interesting moment, and the guy confessed his love to his girlfriend via instagram, i ’m sitting in the locker room, here he sees, he’s worried, he’s sitting on the phone, i say what happened to you, and he tells me, i just confessed to my girlfriend, i say, how did you confess, i say, why didn’t you want to see her eyes ? see her reaction, see, feel, in the end, how she will react to this, maybe tears of joy will appear in her eyes, no instagram , no social network will convey these emotions, and he couldn’t answer me, he says, but i don’t know, i was worried, i’m like this i decided, i say , you will never be able to experience these emotions, and social networks, in my opinion, they

take away these emotions, they do not allow you to fully, fully feel these emotions. let's move on to the yellow sector, now you are the head of the tennis federation, what is handball and tennis similar? the most common misconception is when people think that the head of a federation, in my case, should, for example , be able to play or, if it’s tennis, then it should only be a tennis player, i always give an example, and the president of the international olympic committee, he is a faker, i always ask a question, i say, if you go by this logic, why do you think that a faker can lead other sports? this is actually a misconception, why? working in the handball federation, deputy chairman of the federation. i neither

not once during the three-year period did i encounter any technical issues. specifically from a specific sport, i had managerial responsibilities and , in principle, now i have exactly the same job, and therefore for me personally, as for a leader, a functionary of the federation, there is practically no difference, and if we talk directly about the types sports, handball is a team game, tennis is still an individual game, although in conversations especially with young athletes i always say that tennis is a team game, team, because there are a large number of people behind a tennis player, and a tennis player will not go to the court if the cleaning lady does not clean him well or if they do not correctly draw up a training plan for him, a schedule, travel arrangements, organization of tournaments and so on, it is always

a team, i’m here - i always tell children especially, guys, you must treat everyone with respect, uh... because this is exactly the same team, it may not be visible, but it works for you to become successful, and you play tennis well, so how from the moment he headed the federation, when i i was chosen, from that moment i started playing, and to be honest, i’m very happy about it, it really got me into it, i try to play about two or three times a week , i run to every training session and game with great pleasure. the purple sector is to your right, please raise your hand if you are ready to ask a question. i heard that tannesists were least affected by political sanctions, is this true? i don’t agree with this point, but they think so, because our tennis players can compete in international competitions, but figuratively the same football players
