[000:00:00;00] and not, well, that is, not ideal, sloppy, maybe somewhere, because i probably made all the mistakes that i could when creating this painting, from the material left over after the repair, he made his first painting, at that moment i realized, here it, the case that he had been looking for for so long, well, this is a great success, in fact, because i might not have found it if some certain circumstances had not played out, maybe i still wouldn’t have known. his principle is not just to create beautiful things that people like, it is important that they are ready for them buy. i don’t want to be van gogh, you see, van gogh is a great artist whose paintings cost millions and millions of dollars, but who sold one painting in his entire life. artur lopitsky from gomel, the creator of designer interior panels, a man who mastered carpentry from scratch

, studied three-dimensional modeling and declared design talent, without any special education, he was able to prove to himself and others that a craft can be an art, and a hobby can become successful business project. his story began 3 years ago with a routine renovation in his own apartment. arthur admits that he didn’t want to get the result like in that joke, we dreamed of a high-tech style, but the result was a high-tech style. to prevent this from happening, arthur and his wife carefully thought out the entire interior in advance.

after decorative work on the furniture and it turned out that what they both liked was either very expensive or simply not on sale, arthur decided to make the furniture himself, such is the design, a hanger instead of a wardrobe, that is, at first we wanted to make a large massive wardrobe, make something light and mobile that can be rearranged, put away, vacuumed, and we also saw the design there, it was in the loft style, probably at that time... arthur was absolutely not familiar with carpentry, had no concepts about materials, tools, but thanks to the internet and the advice of several friends who had worked with wood for a long time, i boldly set to work: a console, a bench for shoes, a cabinet for the bathroom, a large table for the living room, it withstood a lot, it even withstood coffee, vorshchi , soups, plasticines, paints, well, now it has lost a little of its glory,

because, well, it needs to be updated. the array is better than good, let’s say it has already become so unusable, well, frankly , let’s say that it has already lost, you just take it, clean it, clean it all off, and it becomes as good as new, cover it again with oil and it’s possible, as if it just yesterday he came out, furnishing the entire apartment with stylish, comfortable furniture, arthur could not even imagine that the completion of the renovation was the beginning of a new stage in his life, there are not many items in the kitchen, but here... the most the main thing is that it later became my business, this is my very first painting, it’s like my first dollar, you know, it’s so wrinkled, all dirty, no no, well, that is, not perfect, sloppy, maybe somewhere , because i probably made all the mistakes that i could when creating this picture , but this is the very first

picture, the most dear to my heart, after... repairing and creating homemade furniture, there was a lot of material left, slats, boards, remains of wood, it was a pity you can just pick them up and throw them away. arthur looked in i accidentally saw a geometric panel made of wooden planks on the internet and decided that this was exactly what i needed. such a picture was supposed to be the final chord in the design of his newly renovated apartment. so, without knowledge and without experience, arthur set about creating a painting. it was a hacksaw, an ordinary one. it was even, one might say, an old soviet rusty one made from tulas, that is, it was absolutely handmade, straight up handmade, over time i still thought that, well, since i’m already doing this, since i’m already making furniture, then well, some kind of tool anyway i need to buy it there, i bought it for myself a circular saw, bought a grinding machine , well, this small manual one, which i bought a milling cutter, this is the minimum set that allowed me to somehow improve my

level and my work. there was no talk of any workshop at that time, and professional tools appeared much later, so when arthur is sometimes told today that to open his own business he needs to complete his studies. he gives his own example, he says that the main thing is a strong desire, it didn’t hurt me, because i’m very i really wanted it, i was burning with it, i wanted to do, do, absolute immersion, when i work, in the process i don’t notice how much time has passed, that there i lowered my head in the morning, relatively speaking, raised it in the evening and didn’t realize that it was already a whole day passed. before fate in such an amazing way led him to carpentry, where our hero did not work, he mixed concrete at a construction site, unloaded cars, worked at a car wash, was an advertising manager at a radio station, and at the same time studied at a correspondence course at

a university and studied 3d graphics. arthur admits he was thrown from one sphere to another, because all this time he was looking for himself. well, i couldn’t even imagine what i wanted. in my childhood i wanted, well, in my youth, i wanted to become a musician, what less, i didn’t agree , a famous rock star there, and i think that the fact that i found this thing, this painting, is a great success, really , because i might not have found it if some certain circumstances had not played out, maybe i still wouldn’t have known, arthur began posting his first works on instagram, pretty soon my own audience appeared, i have never received a single negative response of any kind in these 3 years, you know, sometimes they write there, and you are like this, and you are like this, and this is so ugly, and

i’ve never had this happen, can you imagine, if i had received my first negative response like this, in the comments or someone else’s direct message, then it seems to me, it seems to me, it would have hit me very hard, in a very short time the audience... arthur increased significantly, he does not believe in luck, or in provision, or in gifts from heaven, but he admits in an incredible way, as soon as he took up carpentry, as if fate itself decided to help him, precisely at the moment when he especially needed orders and support, instagram gives arthur a coupon for advertising. i launched advertising for all these 300 dollars, and you know, there was just a boom, because before that... the posts were collected here and there, well, there, well , 30 likes, there were 50, 60, 60, it seemed, wow, i guess i'm somehow successful, huh then i get 1,500 in just a few days, and there were a lot of requests, and this is just

like that, as in modern language, it turned out to be a boost. they are ready to surprise and win, as the abbreviation gto stands for, denis , ready for work defense, representatives of this sport are called yachtsmen, what kind of sport, sailing, sailing, project participants will show their best qualities. this is the theorem, so called, the tangent theorem, that the tangent of a circle is perpendicular to the radius drawn to the point of contact, i refused, no, and what about... fighting for victory and the title of being the best, wait, what kind of geometric figure?

circle sign, geometric figure, circle sign, well, yes, einstein, einstein, yes, there is no other option, poor man, how much he did, also dynamite, watch the intellectually entertaining show, on the belarus 24 tv channel, we continue to talk 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 ancient forests on this land, and here passed the largest trade route from varyak to the greeks. the most mysterious places. a unique timepiece in the heart of broadway. initially there were no arrows on them. later they appeared, but the clock did not show the correct time. interesting myth. and legends say that here 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, watch the program of the city of belarus

on our tv channel. arthur finds a room for a workshop. special machines that they make it possible to make ideal blanks from wooden planks that are not always even, they try different paints, varnishes, impregnations, and spend hours in hardware stores. when you don’t know what composition it is, you take it, think, well, it’s in the picture or in the colors, then in life it can turn out completely different, and of course, you make such mistakes, try it, see on your material how it will look, but in any case, what did not fit at some point, it will still be used later, then nothing will be lost, for arthur, everything really comes into play, not only the materials, the knowledge long ago acquired in 3d graphics turned out to be indispensable in carpentry . customers, most of whom arthur works with remotely, send photos

of finished or future interiors, and thanks to special programs, arthur is able to perfectly fit his paintings into interiors that he has never seen in person. you offer some option 1, 2, 3 , they tell you it seems beautiful, but you don’t like something, it happens that once i had 25 different sketches, i made, that is man, he was looking, he was looking for exactly what would be his, what he would fall in love with, unconditionally, and we found, in the end, that is, for me, every client, he brought it, because i think , imagine, i once worked there somewhere, and now people come to me, they choose me to make this picture for them, and so on, how can i tell him that three or three attempts, and then money, otherwise it would be possible, customers who constantly interfere with the work of the master, but arthur

a completely different approach, he loves caring clients who delve into, advise, choose, it is important for them to become a kind of co-author of each project. outwardly, arthur looks like a very calm person, but he sincerely worries about every project. yes, i am very gentle with my customers, because i love them very much, i repeat, but in fact, as it turned out, i am a very emotional person. and i've already broken a few phones and a hammer and everything, but that mostly happens in the workshop. looking at how cleverly arthur he manages the boards, how quickly he lays out the pattern, it may seem that this work is very simple, one day one of his colleagues said something similar to him, they say it’s a one-two punch, it’s actually not so easy to fit all the sticks , all these rivers, to clean it all up, but the most important thing... is not this, you can file it

down, you can gain experience, the main thing is to come up with something, how to arrange the colors, how to arrange the pattern, this is also a lot of work and so on just copy, well, you can try, of course, copy there to do, but it’s not a fact that everything will be sold, people want their own, people want everything to be made specifically for them, so i had this happen once, yes, as you say, what should i do here, please take it, do it , but few do anything. arthur admits that today he just needs to look at the sketch, and he already understands how many boards will go into the picture, at what height the peaks of future mountains or the center of the ornament will be located, but from time to time our hero tries to find a new format for his wooden panels. i often experiment a lot when i have i have some little free time, i’m trying, that is, to somehow implement my ideas, well, that is, they are absolutely different. and if i look, for example, i made it, it would be in my head, i really

like it, but i post it on instagram and well , i just get that oh, it’s beautiful, it’s beautiful there, but i don’t make anyone want to order her, and i understand that this was my lesson, which means people are not very interested in this, i don’t want to be van gogh, you know, van gogh is a great artist, whose paintings are there millions, millions of dollars, but who sold one painting in his entire life, and lived , well, that is, he is a great artist, but i don’t want to be ahead of my time, as he was ahead of his time, so no one understood him, he was unclaimed. when asked who he considers himself to be, an artist, a craftsman or a businessman, arthur replies: i am a generalist, and this is what the time dictates. today it is impossible to be one person, you need to combine qualities from completely different areas, then success will come to you. i might break it the stereotype is that...

so you have one profession and you stay there, grow in your career, in your career and there you rise to some leadership position and that’s it and you don’t move anywhere, you ’ve chosen the path and suffer on it, as they say, and there you are it doesn’t matter, that is, i’m breaking the stereotype that you can break your way and try to break through, don’t go straight along the road, break a fence there, go there, and there turns out to be something new, something interesting that will fill your life with meaning . how often, when we become adults, do we we try ourselves in some new professions, activities, hobbies, we are often immersed in everyday routine life, go to a job we don’t like, live in endless groundhog days, but we just need to try something different, especially if we go to a job we don’t like, if you go, get up in the morning and just don’t want to go anywhere, and want to stay at home, and maybe you even hate your job, then

you definitely need to try, because life is short, it’s one, it seems to me that it’s very important do this, try to find yourself somewhere in something. what will give you this energy. and perhaps this is how a business will appear that brings pleasure, income, and self-realization, as it happened in

the life of artur lopitsky from gomel. there was joy in the fractions, in the past, in connection with the hour and the heat, simply respect, the skin day is formed from tradition, the fall, the year or the hundred years ago, everything that was considered old was almost new , we ourselves do not respect this, we pass on knowledge and experience directly , this is our smile,

the wave of the hand, and such a familiar pose, with simple, happy moments are formed. we are trying to save our products. thank you for our current day, belarus 24. hello, we welcome everyone who is with us now, we are glad to have guests who are in our studio today, but let’s start with, of course , nagorno-karabakh, the situation around it, we see the aggravation that has happened now , a difficult situation, taking into account

the fact that both states are not strangers to us, we , of course, perfectly understand that we need to make balanced assessments here and try to be as objective as possible, although when you analyze the facts, you understand that you understand that this could not have happened without external influence, that many people are rubbing their hands at this moment, and it is very difficult to maintain objectivity, nevertheless, we will try, nikolai evgenievich, in your opinion, this is the current aggravation, it what is it about, why does it lead to what, first of all, it is about the fact that no matter how funny it may sound, the stage of reconstruction of the world has entered... into a hot phase, we talked about this about a month ago, that in the near future, literally , maybe, at that time, we said that in the coming months there would be escalation of conflicts in various points, and as an option it was mentioned, including nagorno-karabakh, moldova, a number of other points, this is the reality of our forecasts at

the moment, which means, as far as the situation is concerned, such conflicts playing for a long time, having deep historical roots , as you rightly said, require a balanced approach, in this situation, the governments of the states, both armenia and azerbaijan, are solving their problems, by the way, the liberation of nagorno- karabakh is one of the strategic tasks written down in all documents of azerbaijan, namely liberation, they consider it from this country, as for armenia , she wanted to sit on two chairs today, unfortunately, today it does not happen like that, the phrase is a little pregnant, that’s exactly how it turns out, with one on the other hand, from one platform it is stated that we are ready to recognize the independence of karabakh as part of azerbaijan. on the other hand, by all means, escalation occurs, escalation under the influence of external factors, in the general

picture of the world, this is another point instability, which is used to resolve the contradiction between the leading states of the world, the tension is indeed visible even in yesterday’s information flow, just a couple of headlines for those who are trying to restore the picture, first we heard that the azerbaijani defense ministry announced the start of anti-terrorist measures in karabakh, then pashinyan made an accusation saying that azerbaijan was trying to drag armenia into full-scale military action, then we saw that negotiations with macron pashinyan and blinkin were there, france demanded an emergency meeting of the un security council, the kremlin calls on yerevan and baku, yesterday we heard about this, to follow the previously signed trilateral document, well then we saw what was happening on the streets of armenia, protesters came out, and pashinyan himself

said in an attempt at a coup, people are demanding pashinyan’s resignation, well, we’ve been watching all day today how, in general, the tension doesn’t subside, alexey viktorovich, how do you look at all this, well, we need to understand here, firstly, that of course, inciting this conflict is one of the chains of confrontation between the west and russia, that is, the task of escalating along the russian border, all possible conflicts, it has been standing for a long time and the karabakh conflict is very convenient here, and we see that this is the current escalation occurred after armenia, led by such an openly pro-western president, decided to begin gradually distancing itself from participation in the csto from interaction with russia, as if showing that it does not currently have trust in the russian side as a peacemaker and guarantor of this at least some fragile peace and a whole series of such

ambiguous steps taken by the armenian head of state, which led to the fact that there were actually maneuvers with the americans, which led to an active diplomatic picks, to the appearance of some heads of state in absolutely anti-russian... places, all this led to something, that is, there was a feeling that armenia was leaving this pro-russian camp, falls outside the scope of russian guarantees, it is clear that the situation around nagorno-karabakh itself is very difficult, its status , that is, the armenian side is there, we respect it very much, and these are also our friends and allies in the odb, the au, the cis,

here, but in this case, the armenian side showed what my colleague correctly said, an attempt to sit on two chairs, and maybe even more, in this case, the very first step that could show the priorities of armenia itself would be their clear position in regarding nagorno-karabakh or artsakh, as they call it, and this position was expressed by pashinyan and he was subjected to significant condemnation. in their society that nagorno-karabakh, also known as artsakh, is an integral part of azerbaijan, that is, this was essentially the surrender of all the many years of struggle that the armenian people waged for the return of ethnic territories that are legally azerbaijani, the conflict is very complex, we don’t want to get up now, this is the business of the armenian and azerbaijani people, we don’t want to occupy no side, how can we objectively say that guys , let’s sort it out among yourselves, that is, that for you

the same nagorno-karabakh region is the same, because when now there are attempts, firstly, to say that the csto is not working , russia is not working, how can it work if you yourself do not consider it possible to defend the territories, if nikola pashinyan says that there are no armenian forces at all in nagorno-karabakh, that is, then the question arises, if...' armenia, what questions then may be directed to azerbaijan, if there are any the presence of armenian citizens, there is a threat to them, you are going to take them under protection, but then you will indicate this in the public space, it is very difficult, of course, this responds to us with pain, because armenia is our ally, we have increased our cooperation quite well in recent years ... trade and economic interaction with armenia within the eac is very serious, so we support cultural initiatives, we greatly

respect the armenian people and support the integrity of armenia, but we also have a good friend. relations with azerbaijan, this is also our friend political, this is also a country with which we have very close ties, in this case we are in this little relationship with each other, to which we are not directly attached, we cannot enter as an active party, but we can offer, and this has been stated, after all, our president, and the russian side emphasizes, there is no military solution, here we can only negotiate, because of course, no one wants ethnic... genocide on either side, these are terrible things and the belarusians, who were once on we felt it ourselves, they understand it very clearly here, that we must contribute so that such a situation does not arise under any circumstances , victorious, well, really, if you look, if there is even such a human question, but unfortunately, that ukraine did not become a lesson in the fact that every step you take is necessary, especially in

the current world, in general you need to be prudent in order to avoid... where diplomacy can and should work, is this not what we are seeing now in nagorno-karabakh? unfortunately , yes, indeed, in many countries, the modern ruling elite, they do not extract lessons from history or from those events that take place in the world, yes, this means that the era turns out to be plunging the destinies of entire nations , which means into the furnace of other people’s interests, naturally, this leads to collapse and statehood and other terrible things that we see today in ukraine, unfortunately, has other tension points. and here, similarly , nikolai evgenievich also absolutely correctly noted that in fact it is in the interests of the united states of america and with them the maximum presence of such conflicts along the perimeter of the russian federation, so that to weaken it in fact, and the only sad thing here is that people, peoples of entire states, who are colliding with each other, are becoming hostages of this whole situation, are waging these wars not in their own interests, to ensure someone else’s interests, this is

sad, absolutely, well , then let's move on to the next big ones, especially since one way or another, what is happening now around nagorno-karabakh intersects with what is happening now, let's call it that, in ukraine, although the front is much wider than the geographical outlines so far still modern ukraine. the attention of the world is focused on new york these days, the un high-level week has opened. it is increasingly heard that the organization is no longer the same, but there is no other way to bring together in one place such different concepts of the world order. but there is a topic that seems to excite. isn’t it time for everyone to wind down on the ukrainian front? the guardian calls the ukrainian president's presence at the un summit the greatest geopolitical drama of the week. well, the director of the analytical center of the international crisis group, prion richard gowen described zelsky's decision to participate in the event as a gamble. if zelsky goes to the general assembly in the security council and insists

that ukraine must continue to fight, and that now is not the time for diplomacy. i think that he will receive a serious rebuff, that’s what he said, that’s what nikolai evgenvich is hinting at in this way, or is this no longer a hint, an insistent demand, in my opinion, this is already a demand, since, in recent years, literally since 2021, the russian federation everywhere is a bogeyman and her position practically no one supports, but opposes the counterbalance, these are the first sensible thoughts, so to speak. which appeared on the western side, not on the allies, on the western side, from the point of view of how the crisis of this situation could develop , sensible notes have finally appeared, it’s time to sit down at the negotiating table, and he, i’ll just add, he, when he said this phrase, this comrade govan, he said that i rely on the opinion of the majority in africa, in asia in

latin america, it immediately sounded in parallel statement by turkish president erdogan, said: we continue our efforts with the conviction that war has no winners and peace has no losers, and i would continue erdogan’s thought, with the words that our president said, it’s time to sit down at the negotiating table, only peace can to solve some situations in ukraine, this thesis , which, by the way, belarus and i, over the course of, i do n’t know, the last year and a half, we have been constantly sending in everything, in all directions, it is finally beginning to have a response, this is not for not because that we were heard, no, it’s just that the objective situation is developing in such a way that in ukraine there are two options for the development of events, first, russia fulfills all its obligations, these are horror stories, it fulfills the goals that it has planned, and this is not that
