enters the market with technologies that will help the development of countries. the african continent is one of the priorities for gomslsh. at the moment, we have supplies to zimbabwe, togo, and we also consider equatorial guinea as one of our main destinations. if we talk about the ministry of industry, then we see here the demand for our, firstly, agricultural machinery, there is good demand, well, voiced by our colleagues in road and construction equipment. that in equatorial guinea there is a lot of construction. there are plans to reach $100 million in trade turnover from equatorial guinea by 2030. there are great prospects in the field of housing construction - this could be the construction of houses and industrial buildings, construction of roads. we are working on preparing a program of bilateral cooperation, a kind of roadmap for our interaction in many areas. among the priority areas

of cooperation. discussed issues of developing interaction in the field of agriculture, food security, industrial cooperation, in the field of healthcare, science, technology, construction, education, culture. specific projects in areas of cooperation have already been outlined, which we expect to be approved by our heads of state in the near future. guinea also confirmed the invitation to the head of the belarusian state to visit this country. active preparations are already underway for the visit, and an impressive bilateral package will be formed for the upcoming meeting of leaders. by the way , the african continent is opening up at our food rates. its quality is known all over the world, our exports are growing. new products in the industry were presented at the traditional prorod exhibition. what surprised the producers? food expo presented about 130 companies from five countries, and belarus represented 1,800 types

of dairy products. over a thousand meat products, it’s difficult for consumers to keep up with the new products on the conveyor belt, meat, milk, thousands of sweets, drinks for every taste, and of course, artisan bread, without yeast with seeds or bran, dozens of items, last year belarus earned 8 billion from the export of agricultural products dollars, healthy eating in trend, a useful product in the top places, rapeseed oil, an example of this, while our consumer is getting used to new tastes , foreign countries are ready to buy, can also be useful, especially if it is made from powdered milk, contains a whole glass of milk in one pack, that is, it is a children's product for children, but very healthy, approved by the school nutrition plant. today, each enterprise annually enters the market with 10 or even 15 new products, limited editions, non-standard packaging or packaging, this is also the engine of trade. in the line of milks lactose-free cheese, yogurt and even

ice cream have also taken root; this is a current line for export markets, including russia. the russian cheese federation is not fully loaded with russian and belarusian producers, there is room to move, there is room to develop. i believe, after all, that the entire dairy industry needs to develop the topic of cheese. import substitution is gaining momentum at the beloyspim concern this year - these products are worth $400 million. we make confectionery and canned food, including baby food, both for ourselves and for others. in the ministry of agriculture summed up the results of the harvesting campaign, the results are not bad, and we managed to significantly improve the collection of certain types of crops. what are the numbers? more than 9,400,000 tons of grain were collected, taking into account. corn. the queen of the fields produced a record harvest of 2,800,000 tons. the average yield is almost 83 cents per hectare. vegetable yields are also higher than last year's. almost 180,000 tons have been collected, and the farmers have fulfilled the

potato harvesting plan of 1,100,000. 11% of the production of fruit and vegetable products in agricultural organizations on farms in this year they are going to be put into stap funds. we will save more than 122,000 tons of vegetables until the new season. the department emphasized that this off-season the consumer will not feel a shortage of belarusian cucumbers, for example, in tomatoes, we will cover 80% of the need, in accordance with the strategy for the development of greenhouse vegetable growing. our products are known and bought in 99 countries around the world. belarus is one of the top five leading countries in the export of dairy products, occupies the third position in the export of meat, and the fourth position in the export of cheese. for certain types of meat we go to ten exporters. based on the results of 9 months of this year, food exports are approaching a figure of 5.5 billion dollars, the agricultural year in crop production is coming to an end, while field work continues, plowed land is rising everywhere, seed material is being prepared, filling with

mineral fertilizers, as well as drawing up the structure of crops. areas for the twenty- fourth year. these are decent numbers for this year, of course, we wanted to get more, but that rapeseed crop (tone, this is the first time, the republic of belarus received plus 111,000, this is, corn grain, more than 2 million tons, this is also the first time the republic of belarus received , yes, we did not reach the colossal amount, but due to corn we leveled out these volumes, today the population will be provided with food grain, livestock, and fodder. pilot project. the green city started in zhodino, what is it, what is its purpose? the city will completely replace diesel buses with electric buses, an environmentally friendly form of urban transport, produced in the workshop of the minsk automobile plant, which has been operating in zhodino for 3 years

such interaction be filled with and how can we be useful to each other? let's ask the director of the eurasian bureau of the chinese media corporation, wang bin, and the general director of the big asia tv channel, alexander lebedev. today they are guests of our program. hello, hello, dear mr. wangbin, let’s start with you, how do you see cooperation with your belarusian colleagues, what tasks do you set for yourself and how can our help solve them? tv channel belarus 24, well, i immediately wanted to say that in march of this year, when alexander grigorievich made a visit to china, the media corporation of china and spiuterokia signed a memorandum of cooperation, within the framework of this memorandum of cooperation we will further develop our mutual work, we will: create joint

projects, exchange content, can further strengthen exchanges between employees and exchange experience working in the international information space, now i i think that belarus and china have the same positions on the international agenda, and we will be here, we have a lot of work that we can tell more about belarus and the chinese audience, and your company can present more products of our television broadcasting company so that the belarusian people know more about china, about ours, about the friendship of our peoples, and we will get to know each other. well, what information about belarus might

be useful to a chinese viewer in your opinion? well, now trade between china and belarus is actively developing, recently held in shanghai, belarusian products were in great demand and aroused great interest among chinese consumers, we also have many joint projects, the most successful is the great stone park, our tv channel often talks about this project, and i think there are many more about cultural cooperation, like yesterday, i learned that only in the faculty of journalism, the belarusian state university, there are 500 chinese students studying, this is how it is strengthening...

ties between peoples and we will have more talk about such exchanges and so that viewers here and here feel the rapprochement of two great nations and this will help develop further our relations , ties are really strengthening, including media cooperation , and why in your opinion is it important today to develop, including this direction, well, now we live in one single information space in the world, and as i just said, the positions of belarus and china in the international arena coincide; last year, in samragta, the chairmen of the sympia and president lukashenko raised the level of our relations, then all-round comprehensive strategic partnership, this is the highest level, between states, and here the media

should not play the most important role, in order to justify this level of interstate relations and m, we must exchange more content, do more joint projects, joint production, so that people, so that the cultures of our countries..." now a question for you, the greater asia tv channel talks about the past, and of course about the present of asian countries, you also work quite closely with the media corporation china, you have there are joint projects, tell us about the most significant ones, you know, in fact, we launched on tv channels on the website in 2017, it was not by chance that we chose the site for the launch and presentation of our project, it was the st. petersburg international economic

forum, in our orbit, let’s say so, there are all the states of asia, there are 49 of them, and we believe that , after all, the largest state is not just in the world, but the largest state in asia and the most influential is russia and the partner and driver of all asian development today without doubts china, so for more than... years now we have been working together with colleagues from the chinese media corporation on a very interesting project, which i hope will become available after our visit today for tv viewers of the belarus 24 tv channel and we will expand our cooperation with other countries to promote the chinese panorama . the chinese panorama is the largest project in the russian language, but if we take the information space of the world in general, today we can proudly say that together with

our colleagues we are making the largest information project about china outside china. we produce nine news releases a week: 75 minutes of edited material, in addition, we are expanding the news agenda on the website, we have now launched not only a telegram channel, but also, uh, that means, in all social networks, resources specifically on the chinese panorama, not only across greater asia across the chinese panorama, because we are absolutely sure that today’s turn to the east is a turn that must be provided with knowledge, knowledge not only of business, but culture, tradition, history. unfortunately, today we spoke with colleagues here in minsk, the agenda is still more focused on the world of the anglo-saxons, it so happened that for 30 years the information space in russia and belarus, it was and was formed, let’s say, more under the influence

the western model, not only the means, but the western model, and when today we talk about turning to the east, when mr. wang bin said that sometimes it turns out that our leaders, presidents of states, government, act faster than the media environment, and we must not only be equal to our leaders, correspond , as you said, but we must also provide information and ideological support for this activity, and we work primarily for - the residents with whom we live and develop together, that is, we have a channel in russian for an audience primarily of russian and russian-speaking audiences who live outside of russia, so we have online broadcasting on the website, we have all our products that we produce posted on the website, with transcripts texts to make it convenient for colleagues to work, because we work not only in the classic b2c segment, we work in b2b and b2g, we promote a positive agenda,

it is very important here, probably, to say that we have agreed with colleagues from the media corporation that that we don't work in. negative segment, yes, we understand that life consists not only of celebrations and victories , there are many problems, but even when we talk about problems, and without them it is impossible, there are floods, there are earthquakes, only the media information that i personally as a journalist do not welcome, they show the number of people killed, they show tragedies, crying, and we try even in these terrible... conditions to show a person, a hero who saves, who does something useful for society, because in any critical situation, even in war, we must look for positive things that lead us to victory, to victory not only in a specific war or conflict,

to the victory of common sense, so we, together with our colleagues, rely on global trends, including political, completely recently, a summit of heads of state was held in beijing at the highest level belt and road one belt one road, to say more, but in everyday life we ​​say belt and road, it’s already clear, but there is also a very important idea that comrade pin expressed, this is building a united community the fate of humanity, and this activity is based, first of all, on the coincidence of mentality, here we are... on our channel , when we make programs together with colleagues, we expand the agenda a little, we don’t talk only about china, they tell us: you ’re talking about china, no, we're talking about china in the context of the global political agenda, in which both russia and belarus, all our friends, are involved, we are saying

that today the division of the world is happening before our eyes, and it is not happening along political, not geographical, not economic, and on mental grounds, on value systems, and we completely coincide today, wang bin spoke about the transition to a higher level, to the level of governments, heads of state, relationships, these relationships should be supported by the media, so we have been doing this for two years, and i really hope, i can say today that i am sure that our pool of cooperation will expand and we will do it together, well, if you look a little into the future, how do you see it: cooperation of the tv channel belarus 24, our tv channel and your greater asia, we, together with our colleagues from belarus 24, want to make joint projects that will be of interest to our viewers. and i am absolutely sure that our programs that we do about china

will be interesting to your viewers, because you have already been told that there is a very big belarusian-chinese agenda, but besides this , we would like our russian viewers to know how belarus is turning to the east in a global sense, what interesting projects you have, what you have not only with china , but with other states, and moreover, how... the asian agenda, the global agenda, including brix plus the shanghai cooperation there, where our partner states are involved, global, how it works , including in border areas, this very important information, this is what we talked about today, and what is very important for me personally, as the head of the media and editor-in-chief, i would like us to know more about how belarus lives in general, the fact is that despite - the high relations of the union state in russia do not know much about the achievements, about the positive agenda of belarus, because

when we, if we look at the information picture of the day with you, then if god forbid something negative happens, everyone will write about it , if they are positive, they will be consider that this is the destiny of, well, the belarusian media themselves, so we want to expand this russian-belarusian agenda, including in the asian direction, but this absolutely does not mean that we will talk only about the asian direction, we are interested in everything that is connected with the positive factor in the development of belarus as a state, and this is exactly what we agreed on today with the leadership and belarus 24 with the leadership of the national television and radio company. well, dear guests, thank you, the director answered the program’s questions eurasian bureau of media cortia china, wang binyi and general director of the greater asia tv channel, alexander lebedev. the event program includes new citizens of the country, an agreement with russia on the mutual recognition of fines for traffic violations and a new season of project 100 for

belarus. we'll be back at the studio in a few minutes. this is the events program for belarus 24 and we continue. 20 people took the oath of citizenship of belarus. the ceremony took place in minsk. we will find out more details from our columnist svetlana chernova. belarusians were former residents of eleven countries, including the cis and the middle east. they all swore to respect the constitution, defend the independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity of our state. let me note that in order to obtain belarusian citizenship, you need to live in the country for at least 5 years, and also know one of the state languages. in total, since the beginning of this year, more than 3,500 foreigners have received belarusian citizenship. we came here for permanent residence in 1915, sold a house in kazakhstan and we bought an apartment here in belarus and our own funds with this money, we liked the ecology, forests, fields, cleanliness, safety, belarus is a country for living, for

living comfortably, raising children. 1,200 citizens of the russian federation have currently acquired citizenship of the republic of belarus, then there are citizens of ukraine - that’s more than a thousand people, then representatives of other cis states, primarily kazakhstan, kyrgyzstan, tajikistan, in total more than 30 countries, citizens who this year became citizens of the republic borost, but also present in this number... and 365 list of stateless people. taking the oath is a new innovation; it came into force in july of this year and is provided for by the law on belarusian citizenship. the largest red cross crisis center in belarus was opened in mogilev. what functions does it perform? the facility is the largest of its kind in the country. up to twenty people can be accommodated here at the same time. the center contains four rooms, a kitchen, showers, a bathroom, as well as a room for conducting various training seminars and teaching first aid skills. in residence time. under guardianship, residents will be helped to resolve a number of social issues, and will also be provided with information, advisory and humanitarian assistance, and psychosocial

support. both foreign citizens and belarusians who find themselves in a difficult situation can obtain safe temporary housing. this is not just the provision of temporary accommodation services for forced migrants, refugees and other vulnerable categories. but this is psychosocial help. this is help for those who have made such a decision on further socialization in our country. that is, search work, permanent housing, we try to ensure that everyone who contacts us receives the necessary help. our country is ready for any challenge, migration, it doesn’t matter if a person comes to us who simply from another state requires some kind of help, support, including the belarusian red cross is always ready to come to the rescue to help, but we must understand that these services will work for our citizens , including teaching first aid skills, working with our elderly, this center will be constantly working. crisis the center in mogilev became the fifth in belarus, the same ones operate in grodno, gomel, brest and vitebsk. an agreement

between belarus and russia on the mutual recognition of fines for traffic violations has come into force. something we should all pay attention to. these innovations will not affect conscientious drivers in any way. but those who like to cheat or break other rules abroad will face a fine. the document on mutual recognition of fines should increase safety and improve the road situation. by the way, collections will now come according to at the place of registration of the car, both in russia and in belarus, payment will be made in national currency at the official exchange rate of the national bank of the country where the decisions are executed. cameras currently record all violations that are committed due to exceeding the established speed limit . the only difference is that we have the opportunity to immediately determine the owner of a vehicle that is registered on the territory of the republic of belarus; unfortunately, we do not have access to the russian database, just like the russian the federation does not have access to the database of the state automobile inspection

of the ministry of internal affairs. the receipt of information was almost instantaneous; we recorded cases where a person driving from the city of minsk through the vitebsk region on the border with the russian federation, actually on the way out, at the end of his journey, was already brought to administrative responsibility for violations he committed on this section of the road. i note that the document provides for the recognition of only those administrative decisions responsible for which are provided in both countries. the thirtieth season of the 100 ideas for belarus project has started in minsk. what's new for participants? there will be more winners in the new season. 30 instead of 20. three age groups of participants were identified, previously there were two, and an additional criterion for evaluating projects was introduced, compliance with the organization’s requests. over the past 12 seasons, youth initiatives have covered all areas, from medicine to aerospace technology. the project also became a high-quality launching pad; over 3,500 initiatives. participants present their developments at exhibitions and competitions
