9:45 pm
[000:00:18;00] good evening, this is the economic environment on belarus-1 and satellite tv channel belarus 24. in belarus , the annual gdp growth plan was completed ahead of schedule, the increase over 10 months amounted to 3.8% according to analytics from the eurasian development bank, gdp growth is due to the expansion of domestic demand. retail turnover in october increased by more than 15% year on year. earlier , the world bank assessed the economic situation in belarus positively. the forecast for gdp growth was raised from 0.6 to 3%. germany faces the threat of deindustrialization. manufacturers europe's largest economy is being blighted by high electricity prices. in august of the twentieth
9:46 pm
, almost a third of industrial. the companies reported to the german chamber of commerce and industry that they prefer investment abroad to domestic ones. the reason for the negative sentiment is said to be concern about a future without cheap russian gas. the ministry of economics of belarus assessed the return on budget funds invested in the great stone industrial park. the volume of attracted private investment is eight times higher than the budget costs for it development. the total number of residents reached 118. over 9 months, they paid twice as much in taxes and fees as in the same period last year, and production volume and revenue increased by one and a half times. the world rating agency has improved the credit indicator of belarusbank to stable. positive reasons cited were the reduction in the risk of increased capital controls, as well as a more stable situation with deposits than expected by the agency. russian investment in belarusian enterprises has grown by more than 40%. by according to the statement of the ministry of economics, all conditions have been created in belarus to increase the influx of russian
9:47 pm
capital. in the third quarter, russia's share in the structure of foreign investment increased by six percentage points and amounted to 63%. the budget for the twenty-fourth year provides 20% more for export support than in the current year. this was announced at a joint meeting of the house of representatives of the council of the republic. the growth of exports in the twenty- third period was ensured, among other things, through the use of government support mechanisms. for every ruble spent budget funds received from 12 to 147 rubles in foreign currency. revenue, why exports are so important for the belarusian economy, which industries have the greatest potential, how exporters are supported in our country, and whether additional measures are needed to increase efforts, we will discuss with competent experts right
9:48 pm
now. today in our studio we have experts who are well versed in export issues, maxim ermalovich - deputy head of the presidential administration of belarus, inna medvedeva, chairman of the national statistical committee of belarus, andrey kartun, deputy minister of economy of belarus, roman brodov - first deputy chairman of the board of the development bank of belarus. dear guests, good evening, good evening, good evening. so, exports, why is it so important for our country, what government tasks does it solve, and how is it related to the balance of foreign trade, balance of payments, and macroeconomic indicators? the importance of exports lies primarily in the fact that it is an opportunity to obtain
9:49 pm
funds to pay for imports. and indeed, as a factor in foreign trade, exports for belarus, it has traditionally been the most important area of economic activity. why does this happen, belarus, well, let’s say, is not a very rich country in natural resources, and in order to ensure its functioning, it needs resources, we import energy, we import most of the raw materials that we use in production, we have a fairly high share intermediate imports, therefore, in order to pay for this import, it is necessary to produce products
9:50 pm
not only for domestic consumption, but for exports and for a long time, the russian economy has been building, coming to this balance, so that the ratio of exports and imports is balanced, the economy is always looking for... such a balance is looking for a new quality that allows the country to pay for the import of those goods that it does not produce and create competitive products , competitive in foreign markets in order to receive the necessary funds to pay for these imports, that is, exports are the currency that we need in order to finance imports, purchases externally from... abroad, goods, works, services, intermediate consumption items needed by our economy, what else? and we get richer when
9:51 pm
our exports exceed the volumes of our imports of domestic consumption, that is, in fact, we can accumulate our foreign exchange reserves, due to the fact that the volumes of manufactured products exceed the volumes of consumption, both our own produced products and imported ones, this is very important. therefore, in order to develop, in order to grow, we cannot do without without the export of goods, especially since the global market is becoming more and more globalized, therefore, in order for the economy to function effectively, it needs to enter all the markets that exist in the world, what else, and of course, i will support maxim leonid in the sense that really our economy. development of direct scientific personnel potential, because we compete in foreign markets with manufacturers,
9:52 pm
accordingly we need to move forward, this is science, this is high-tech, and today, for example, every fifth ruble in revenue received, these are innovative products, in export, and these are products with a high share of added, andrey mikhailovich, tell us, you, as a well-known macroeconomist, a person who has scientific work, is involved in this in your direct activity, what is the connection between exports and macroeconomic indicators, well, votrovna spoke about the degree of openness, so... the degree of openness of the economy precisely characterizes the relationship with the external sector, and in this we are the absolute leaders among the cis countries, the former, uh, so if we talk about the general foreign trade turnover, then our
9:53 pm
foreign trade turnover exceeds the entire gdp by 1.3 times, and 60%, even more than 60%, our share of exports in the gross domestic product itself, and for some positions, such classic export positions - this is mechanical engineering, and even exceeds 80%, this suggests that we produce much more, many times more in some positions than we can produce ourselves, therefore, the overall functioning of our enterprises definitely depends on the activity in the foreign markets of our enterprises economy in in general and first of all, this is one of the main sources of the influx of foreign exchange earnings into the country, especially now we unfortunately have no other sources, these are only foreign investments, the inflow of which is limited, so here, of course, from the point of view of balancing the economy, exports are very important, this is one of the most important
9:54 pm
macro indicators of the country. roman pavlovich , what government tasks do you think are solved by the supply of our goods, works, services to foreign markets, well, besides those mentioned, yes, thanks for the question, exports in general quite an amazing category, because apart from purely economic aspects , it is a little like, you know, like a diamond, depending on what angle you look at it, like the light it casts, like many economic categories, like many, yes, well, what is export, from the point of view of the legal meaning or such procedural issues, in essence it is a fact, a documented fact in the customs declaration, the crossing of goods through the customs territory, and its transfer on a reimbursable basis to residents and non-residents, but in economic terms it is much more. a deep process, because, well, firstly, the number of exporters, the number of entities engaged in exports in the country is a five-digit sum, i will not publicly announce it, but it is a five-digit sum, it is difficult to find an enterprise that is not involved in foreign economic activity , and when we translate this into
9:55 pm
a plane, the amount of employment, people who work in enterprises and, accordingly , ensures the stability of functioning both as a business and as a source of supply income, then this is already a question, well, let’s say , of the functioning of the country, because the internal market is not enough, we all want to live better, we all want to receive income through production activities, financial and economic activities. therefore, the first factor is the stability of the economy, the second point is the financially proven fact of the success and modernity of the enterprise, because it is always more comfortable to work in the domestic market than in the foreign market, but as athletes say, you will never understand your real level until you you won't go out to platform with other modern athletes, you won’t try, such a unique indicator of competitiveness, and not only, but an understanding of whether the market confirms all your , let’s say, advertising announcements that we are the best, we are beautiful, we produce, only
9:56 pm
the buyer, the final buyer products, and not internal, external , which is spoiled, which has seen everything in the world, yeah, by voting, financially, by concluding a contract, confirms that yes, you are a modern business, the second is a source of motivation, since work in the external market it always forces you to be the best, inside marketers, engineers can of course move, but a modern top manager, head of an enterprise, he always tries to ensure that his services, his... business units, responsibility for the production process for the household, are oriented, strived for better global taxes, yeah, well, that is, we come to the conclusion that exports are an economic category that largely ensures the economic security of our country. the importance of export issues is evidenced by the fact that they are regularly raised at the level of the head of state, sales markets, logistics, and specific
9:57 pm
problems, barriers are discussed there... they essentially have one, this is the promotion of belarusian products and the systematic increase in supplies, let's listen, export is a currency without which the country and the economy cannot live, especially since belarus has an export-oriented economy; half of what we produce will have to be sold in order to live normally, due to the fact that they tried to strangle us in the past sanctions, the existing logistics were disrupted, we had to look for new logistics ways, that is, supply routes, sales of our goods, we need to think about how to increase exports. inna viktorovna, they say that statistics know everything, well, it’s hard to argue with that, you probably know everything, you probably can’t say everything with regard to foreign trade, but tell me,
9:58 pm
have we managed to overcome the negative trends that have developed after the introduction of against the republic of belarus of unfair sanctions, what is the dynamics demonstrates the foreign trade balance of our country? we certainly succeeded, if last year we noted a decrease in the pace, including the index of physical volume for the supply of export products, then this year we have received an increase in the supply of products for export, this is unambiguous, this is the first, second, most important thing, we have already achieved twenty-first year and increased it a little, this concerns the physical volumes of export supplies, this is in fact 9, 10 months, this is in fact 9 months, that is, today we have quite good indicators, and as for the balance, before
9:59 pm
2020 our balance was like... the highest level of positive somersault of 4 and almost 6 billion us dollars. as for the current year, for january-september there was also a positive balance of $538 million. this is a good result, because this year, when supplies changed, the directions naturally changed. there are also imports in order to produce products, respectively, reaching a positive saltation indicates that it has been balanced deliveries to harm our opponents, well, one more thing, if you allow me, i would like to mention one point, we are often reproached, yes, that there is nowhere to look at operational statistics on foreign trade and so on, so that our people understand us, this has been done on purpose, this was done correctly, in order not to arm... our enemies
10:00 pm
, who sit and think about where to attach us there, what should we do there, what sanctions packages to introduce against us, we did this on purpose, and also did russian federation, and there are many other countries, but we see all our flows, yes, we know, we control, we draw certain conclusions, but tell me, within the framework of what can be said, which industries currently demonstrate, well, such maximum or confident export potential , this is a light industry enterprise, so these are practically all enterprises, very many enterprises. here , from electronics to equipment, pharmaceuticals, separate areas of the food industry, chemical materials, in principle there is enough
10:01 pm
these areas show high, very high rates, and indeed they are drivers today, that is, these were precisely the areas in which we understood that sanctions hit hard last year and today, again, i want to repeat, pay attention that they have returned to the level of the twenty-first year, by the way, the volumes in value, we have a record for the last 11 years since 2012, we put mainly our exports exceeded 35 billion, and if we talk about what inna viktorovna said, we are geography not only did they narrow it, but they expanded it, and now the countries of asia and latin america, we have already increased the countries of asia, for example, by 1.3. rates, and some countries in latin america increased several times, so it was possible to diversify, those flows that were concentrated on unfriendly countries have now been reoriented, reoriented, i will add that, for example, if last year we diversified mainly in the cis market,
10:02 pm
then in this year we are already seeing growth in markets outside the cis, that is, this is both a long-distance arc and work... with other countries, this is exactly where is very important, do i understand correctly that, firstly, you are saying that we have provided the cost parameters for exports, if you remember, in january there was a meeting with the head of state, where one of the president’s claims was that yes, we provided export volumes in value, but not quite yet in terms of physical terms, but well, he says that just the same, and now we have essentially fulfilled the order of the head of state, yes, that is, both the cost and physical parameters have essentially been fulfilled, and secondly, we have expanded our geography, and exports, what are we talking about? said, inna viktorovna, thirdly, andrei mikhailovich, we can conclude that the share of added value in our exports is increasing, because we are moving gradually,
10:03 pm
changes are taking place in the structure, when instead of intermediate consumption goods, the share of final products increases, hence the increase. if you look wider, higher, in the context of those global challenges, yes, threats that surround our country from the outside, these are the negative factors you see that would affect our exports, and if talk about strategic priorities, these are the strategic priorities. the most important thing, probably, is that export has always been a priority of economic policy, throughout our sovereign history, socio-economic development programs
10:04 pm
were built precisely on giving additional impetus to the development of exports and the entire state system, all public administration was built on that to help enterprises export their products, and we honestly integrated into the global economy, we set ourselves the task of diversifying exports to enter the markets of the european union, there was even a formula when 30% of all exported goods, we assumed, to the eu countries, 30% to the countries, partners, the main ones, today, this is the cis, well, basically this, of course, concerns
10:05 pm
countries of the eurasian economic union, and 30% of the countries of the far arc, we built our own economic policy based on this priority, developed relations within the eurasian economic union, implemented a program for belarus’ accession to the wto, i was part of these negotiations, i remember how we european partners - discussed - all the possibilities for our country’s access to the markets of both the eu and the usa, yeah, well, and accordingly, based on our production capabilities, 30% were focused on the distant arc market, but history crossed out this scheme, this one completely changed our intentions and i would say that
10:06 pm
our partners in the european union were guided by absolutely non-economic priorities and methods, introducing economic sanctions as a result, we were forced to redirect a fairly large volume of our products to a very short time on the market of other countries, not only belarus lost from this, first of all the eu countries lost from this. where a really large volume of our goods were supplied, and these goods, i can say, as a former diplomat, were very competitive in these markets. sanctions, that’s the first factor, yes, unfair sanctions , we’ve already talked about them a lot, it’s probably not worth repeating, yes , what else, the coronavirus pandemic had a great impact on global trade, and
10:07 pm
many really collapsed... until now for a while, but again everything is constantly changing, and now it is no longer clear what is happening in global trade due to the large number of sanctions restrictions that are imposed by individual countries against others, because you understand that this is not the case... belarus is under the threat of economic sanctions, they act in relation to many, many countries, and this has a serious distorting effect on world trade and , accordingly, on the global economic system, on its efficiency, that is, we are losing real money due to the fact that individual countries impose sanctions against other countries, everyone suffers... no one has a gain, well, someone probably has a gain, individual countries that consider themselves hegemons, probably, after all, this is a big
10:08 pm
misconception about the fact that these countries, received some additional economic effects when sanctions were introduced for reasons of protectionism, we are not talking about sanctions, but about distortions of world trade, world trade, and ineffectiveness, ineffectiveness, these mechanisms don’t work in practice, they don’t work, why does china reproach, their global partners in unilateralism, because all these mechanisms do not work, they work only for a limited number of countries , that’s how it is, all the established traditions and agreements in the international and this is a big threat to the entire world market, again
10:09 pm
, i repeat, this does not apply only to belarus , introducing any restrictions on the free trade of goods, protecting their markets, political or economic methods, countries that do this, they will sooner or later face the economic consequences of these measures, we in the list of our... 161 countries today, that is, we, a real participant in global world trade, peace and the global economy, with our services and goods we go to 161 countries of the world, so everything that happens in these countries is one way or another otherwise, it affects our capabilities and the efficiency of our trade, okay, but what strategic priorities should we... lay as the basis for a progressive foreign trade policy that would take into account all the challenges and threats that we just
10:10 pm
talked about, the same economic tasks , which the head of state puts before us and which we are obliged to decide, yeah, we must , and we have discussed this within the framework of our programs more than once, we must be technologically independent, technological sovereignty is also one of the factors for the safe export of our products when we are not dependent on a whole chain of suppliers, we must engage in import substitution in order to balance our economy, and no matter how the external market behaves, we will always be able to produce goods for our own consumption and not rely on exports, that is, by reducing the need for imports, we thereby increase the value of these exports, because they generate more foreign exchange... which we can use for other needs than to finance imports, right? let me give you
10:11 pm
a simple example: a decrease depending on external energy resources. in this decision on the construction of a nuclear power plant and one power plant, we replaced almost a quarter of the total volume of gas in the balance of consumed energy resources, this is huge reducing import dependence in this sector is a big saving for our trade and for our balance of payments. on the other hand, we are working to carry out import substitution, look, in mechanical engineering, we were very dependent on suppliers who were scattered all over the world, in the european union, we purchased goods that completed our equipment in china, yeah, in even in the usa, now, due to
10:12 pm
certain reasons, non-economic, so to speak, these... chains have been destroyed, this is big, a big blow for our exports, but we efficiently and quickly, somewhere began to produce such goods on our own, in most cases this happened, and the world is big, we found alternatives to these suppliers who do not lose in quality, and today our technology demonstrates significant the world is great - said maxim leonidovich, and for a reason, we must conquer new markets, increasing exports - this is the task of our embassies abroad, these are the areas diplomats focus on in their work, a lot, of course, depends depending on the specifics of a particular country, let's listen, economic
10:13 pm
ties between belarusian enterprises and italian enterprises go back a decade, italian equipment with belarusian products, for example, bmz, should have been supplied to the italian market last year in the amount of half a billion ; the corresponding contracts were signed. if it were not for the sanctions policy of the european union, this would have been the case. many, yes most , italian businesses continue. work with belarus, despite logistical difficulties, despite difficulties with payments, they continue to work with us, rapeseed oil, both for the republic of belarus and for china , belarusian rapeseed oil is no longer a new product, the fact that new buyers have arrived, new countries, regions, twin cities of our
10:14 pm
country, this is a step forward, this is the deep work of our regulators, our enterprises, of course this work is, as you said, diplomacy, this is complex work that leads to the fact that we are increasing new types of goods for the chinese market, which are successfully sold there. rapeseed oil today is in the top products, goods that today provide us with export earnings, these are those areas that today are not subject to restrictions from our european partners, this is primarily the agricultural sector and food production, this is... an area, for example, as new a direction that is also quite promising and is of mutual interest on both sides, hungary managed to resolve the issue of continuing the development of its nuclear power plant, sabotaging this process yes, but they were able to come to an agreement with the european
10:15 pm
the commissions have actually already made a decision, this means that opportunities are opening up for interaction in this sector, our specialists, who in the field of construction of this facility and operation, of course, already have serious qualifications and are in demand by our venver partners, well, of course, our representative office must work on solving these problems, they are there at the forefront, as they say, they know better. andrey mikhailovich, please tell me, well, we talked about the fact that government support is extremely important export, tell me, what is... the export support system in our country, we have all the institutions created in the country, this is the development institute of the development bank, this is such a classic world, let's say , an institute that helps solve export problems, this is the belarusian trade - a chamber of industry, this is also in every country , in fact, which is engaged, so to speak, in supporting exports, a center
10:16 pm
for marketing and price conditions, uh, there is such an institution and, uh, recently an agency for foreign economic activity, so these all institutions, they are actually support instruments, we have two, can be divided into two categories, these are financial and non-financial. if we talk about financial instruments, then in 10 months we see that exports using financial instruments amount to more than billions of dollars, and if we talk about how this instrument was used, but of course what is more relevant today is the use of non-financial instruments, here, of course, we have undergone a certain transformation, due to the fact that time dictates its conditions, there have already appeared new tools, for example, the agency for foreign economic activity, in addition to some traditional services, market research , tips on where to deliver, they are engaged in the so-called support of export contracts, building
10:17 pm
logistics routes, and what is not the most important building is including financial calculation schemes, because they are difficult now, roman pavlovich, but if we focus specifically on measures of financial stimulation of exports, tell me. what measures are being applied in our country, how far are they effective from your point of view? these are the conditions that we have repeatedly mentioned today, calling them sanctions, restrictions, and so on, no matter how much they criticize me, now for the thought that i will say, but they turned out to be not so terrible, because when you directly touch some business process from the point of view of its financial support, namely the export process, you understand that restrictions have always existed. simply in different forms and were not always called sanctions if there is a prohibitive any import duty on goods, if there is one, you mean, protectionist measures that were applied there, yes, yes, yes, there are
10:18 pm
none, correspondent connections are reliable, there is no agreement on currency, there is no reliable partner who has firm confidence that he will return the proceeds and pay for the goods, all these are measures that suppress foreign trade, they have always existed , we have always been looking for ways. how to support exports in these difficult conditions, therefore a classic financial instrument, it is always worked, it worked in the current year for about one and a half billion dollars, funds were allocated to support this export through decree 534 and we assess its effectiveness as very high, one ruble of budget support generates about 30 rubles of export revenue, in the twenty- second-twenty-third year we realized that this was not enough and... this mechanism has undergone significant adjustments, firstly, in addition to manufacturers, it has become possible to support trading companies, trading companies that are professionally engaged in trade, not production
10:19 pm
, trade in belarusian goods, these companies received the opportunity for such financing, and flexible rates appeared, new currencies appeared for issuing loans and for financing such transactions if traditional currencies turned out to be toxic and incapable of financing. i would even say that a new form of anti-banking incentive has even appeared, when a number of projects can be financed without collateral, if the enterprise does not have collateral , if only insurance is available, issued to state-owned enterprises, in the absence of proper collateral, such projects can be financed, this is what they did, yeah, realizing that this is not enough, we need to go further, the development bank initiated a number of adjustments to the current legislation to introduce additional incentives, firstly , this is a reduction in the rate at which such exports will be financed, if today it is 2/3 of the refinancing rate, that is
10:20 pm
, the funds are 30% cheaper, then we assume that we will reduce it by another 1/3, that is, enterprises export-oriented ones, which create a product needed by the state and generate foreign exchange earnings, will receive money at 30% of their value. that is, in essence, this is a tool for supporting exports of the development bank, right? this is a state instrument that is available to almost all banks, but since the development bank is an institution, well, i would say, something in the middle between the ministry of economy and the ministry of finance, only focused on commercial projects from tools of means, then up to 90% of this instrument is used through bank channel development, the second very important direction, which we also see today - would significantly intensify exports , this is the financing of investment activities , so what does exports have to do with investments, yes, we see that issuing export loans to
10:21 pm
create a country, yes, this is also one of the methods of entering the market by financing projects, they can be called differently, assembly production, production, which allow you to adapt the product to the target market, which allow you to minimize... the effect of non-target methods or other restrictive methods, enterprises are ready to engage in this activity, and financial support, too, we assume will be introduced in such areas, but this is the first thing. part, that is, what we said about money, indeed , with the change in conditions , the principles of work for enterprises have radically changed, and - the usual supply channels, the usual forms of payment, the usual logistics routes, the usual interaction with partners required a new analysis. the head of state has repeatedly said that most problems is within us, are we able to change our idea that export is not the transfer of goods across the border, that export is not even production, export is
10:22 pm
sale. how deep are we ready to enter sales channels as close as possible to the target market, are we ready to reach the end consumer in the destination country, understanding his preferences, and not giving margin, to the first buyer who is in the territory of the state that cooperates with us, therefore not financial support that helps enterprises enter the market, starting from some registration issues to understanding the processes. sometimes even these are cultural aspects and forms of negotiations that are needed for them to end successfully, all this also requires deep understanding, and roman pavlovich, do i understand correctly that despite the fact that the world is being transformed, needs and characteristics are being transformed , new sales markets are being formed, new needs arise for our exporters, but despite all this,
10:23 pm
the system of financial support for exports and exporters in our country as a whole... is effective, it is not just effective , it shows dynamics every year, this dynamics is confirmed by the numbers that i said better, but we do not stop at this support, if you look at goals of the head of state, otherwise we can talk about the future support system, which is what the president is talking about, we must pay attention to logistics, given that we... must think about our own fleet, our own port infrastructure, trade representative offices, build a transport system to the ports; now, in cooperation with the russian federation, railway logistics routes to the port infrastructure and to the final consumer are being worked out
10:24 pm
; we can go all over the world, look for opportunities where we will be present in ports with our belarusian goods, merchant fleet is also one of the tasks that sooner or later the country will solve in order not to depend on carriers who dictate their terms, another important area in in which the state will work , supporting belarusian enterprises, this is again a commodity distribution network, interaction with our diplomatic missions in countries in order to help organize these sales points,
10:25 pm
delivery points. goods to the end consumer, now it is necessary, and this is very important, for banks to accompany these foreign trade contracts so that the payment system begins to work differently. and look, the president constantly sets tasks, and to his colleagues around the world, to create new payment instruments, gives instructions to the central bank... about how a new settlement and payment system is being formed in the world , the formation of the brix currency is now on the agenda, a change in the yuan market share in world trade, the world is changing, we must keep up with these changes, and this is a task
10:26 pm
for government agencies, for enterprises, how to change in a timely manner in response to changing global conditions, how new tools should be implemented into the economic system, into the state support system, so that they meet modern market requirements, this seems to me very important, it must be stated that the country’s export successes are largely determined by the foreign trade victories of specific manufacturers. and a good example is belarusian food. it is exported to more than 100 countries around the world, and there is every reason to believe that this year our food supplies. products on the foreign market will exceed $8 billion; this requires a competitive product, initiative and active action. about successful examples of conquering foreign countries markets, tasteful reporting from alexey kondratenko. please, over the past year
10:27 pm
we released about eight items from the italian line, we continue to move forward, we released a german line, and now intensive technological work is underway on the swedish line of products. for gourmets, import substitution is only one of the strategic tasks in the production of the molodechno meat processing plant, an enterprise with a rich history, next year it will be 85, working on a model from field to counter. its structure has its own farmland, pig farms, food. market, therefore, by the way, here we are completely confident in the high quality of raw materials, this allows us to compete not only within the country, but in foreign markets. the share of exports in our production volume is approximately 50%. and the first places are certainly shared
10:28 pm
today by china and the russian federation. we also supply the products we produce to uzbekistan, kazakhstan, armenia, and georgia. there is a row. projects that we want to test our enterprise today, for example cuba, korea, creatively and appetizingly for the release of our the pasta production workshop of the borisov bakery products plant is also suitable for production; the enterprise also has a long history and can be said to be a professor in pasta. production, horns, vermicelli , noodles and, of course, spaghetti, dozens of types of products here in borisov are certainly produced from durum wheat, which, by the way, the borisov land itself is rich in. the workshop produces 100 tons of pasta per day, the product is socially significant, there is a stable
10:29 pm
demand for it in the domestic market , and consumers from different countries enjoy our pasta. our company is a successful exporter of pasta products , we are increasing volumes, among others, moldova, the european union countries, the countries of the southern caucasus, supply relations are developing in china, in the future, developing partnerships with organizations from south korea. our products are in demand and undoubtedly, the launch of a new line will allow us to increase our export potential. by the way, this new line at the borisov bakery plant is now being installed by the end of the year . and new quality products, because it has many advantages, the line for the production of short-cut pasta with a capacity of 100 kg per hour is equipped with a vacuum mixer, which makes it possible to prepare dough of higher quality for the production of pasta; the line
10:30 pm
contains a torbata with blast cooling of pasta, which gives them glassiness and when cooking pasta , they do not become soft and do not swell. well, we’ll taste the new pasta from borisov at the beginning of next year, maybe even as a main course, especially since there’s special occasion: 2024 has been declared the year of quality. it’s always nice to see positive examples, because, in fact, they form the foreign trade balance that we are proud of. colleagues, respected experts, tell me: what promising areas of export specialization of our country need to be developed, in your opinion, and how we can ensure an increase in the share of added value in the price of exports. i think from our
10:31 pm
conversation, tv viewers now understand that in order to effectively export goods, we must increase export volumes without... import volumes. and this, of course, is the main goal, so that we export more goods with high added value. here the directions are clearly defined. first of all, this is microelectronics, this is our traditional mechanical engineering, machine tool industry, that is, these are high-tech goods and ensure the independence and technological sovereignty of our country from imports. another. a highly competitive market, mainly now dominated by countries, the so-called developed countries,
10:32 pm
eu countries and the usa, this is a biotonic market. china is beginning to break through there, and pharmaceutical products, and we must not forget about our traditional products - these are goods that are made from local raw materials, we have carried out quite a deep modernization in our wood processing, but we need to go further, we need to increase the depth of wood processing, in this direction you need to move. for me, of course, in this case, speaking about those areas that are promising, i fully support maxim leonidovich, but nevertheless, today and of the volume of industrial production, 64% is exported, so every product that our enterprise produces today is a priority for it, specifically, and today the task is to expand markets, enter new ones and engage in effective import substitution, which will allow... even the same components for our mechanical engineering, we know that enterprises
10:33 pm
that produced components have left the russian federation, that is , today these developments are underway, the same can be said about food and the same high added value in food production, that is, not just selling meat, but selling the finished product, which today is highly valued on the international market, or like with the same powdered milk, yes, which is absolutely true, or like the same candies that i spoke about. .. projects in order to develop this and build a new enterprise. roman pavlovich, do you think this is a promising area of export specialization, maybe not everything has been announced, maybe you see something else. i repeat, the thought is extremely important, therefore, i would still like to focus on the fact that the margin is not in production, today the margin is in sales. and there is, uh, one example of such amazing transactions, when a manufacturer
10:34 pm
earned 10-12-13% of his profit from an export deal, uh, the one who brought the products to the end consumer, but had a profitability several times, simply several times, even an order of magnitude higher , this is what happens, and when i asked how it happened, how are you, he says, i ’ve been hatching this deal for 2 years, so i can earn 60, 70, 80, 100% there, he says, i’ve been doing it for 2 years invested the final consumer, so you need to change the philosophy, you need to understand that export is not a customs declaration, it is not a statistical declaration when changing residence, then you are brought to modern methods of promoting products on the foreign market, in foreign markets, what you need to know the final buyer of the products and work with him, andrey mikhailovich, but i can’t help but ask you, as a well-known methodologist, here are complex macroeconomic issues, how can we increase... the level, the share value added in export value?
10:35 pm
i agree with my colleagues that, of course, the first key word is marketing, why is this key, it has developed so structurally that we have a manufacturing enterprise, and now , of course, large enterprises need to say the word marketing production, restructure, because not only that, that you need to release a product that is in demand, you also need to sell it, accompany it, that’s how colleagues said, in essence, how... marketing there is a sales funnel and so on, it doesn’t matter just throw the product over the fence, it is important to provide feedback to customers, is everything good, what else can be improved , what kind of service is needed, in this regard , i absolutely think that we are not fully utilizing such a good tool as e-commerce, for example, when we talk about the fact that, according to world experts, by the twenty-fifth year the share of sales... of consumer goods, it will reach 50% electronically, in electronic
10:36 pm
form, they say, so here, unfortunately, we look at it in such a way that large enterprises are not are present on the world's electronic trading platforms, so of course the potential here is huge, well, you need to enter, you need to go, of course, either not on your own or with someone's help, and so on, so that's all, modern promotion tools, of course, need to be used, the second part, about which we also said in the first part of the program is to engage in active diversification, not and even though this may not be profitable at the moment, enterprises often say, now, why should i go to africa, for example, if i russia is good, i have high margins there and so on, well, we see everything, especially if for competitive goods, today it is one price or one, the same conditions, tomorrow, the whole market is lost, so of course
10:37 pm
everything. we are very ambitious in setting ourselves up to actually triple the growth, for example in the african market, yes, maybe some enterprises are a little unprepared, but we must do this, otherwise, then we will not have diversification, so for us, we, promising markets, they are defined, we must in this regard move, dear experts, to summarize our conversation, how do you see the export potential of our country in the future and what we all need to do for this, maxim leonidovich. i imagine the work of our economy in supplying goods for export as a single set of coordinated actions of all participants in this process. this so-called corporation belarus, or transnational, let it be
10:38 pm
a transnational corporation belarus, in which... government bodies help enterprises sell products to foreign countries markets help produce these products without seeking personal interest in this. science is doing everything to ensure that this product is competitive and in line with all world trends, and in some cases even ahead of its time. so that the financial sector offers simple, understandable and accessible forms of financing. export production, insurance, removed some of the risks from enterprises, government agencies, uh, the foreign economic sector of our country, helped promote these products to the market, enterprises produced efficiently, reduced expenses, learned to sell products, considered
10:39 pm
it an important task and a priority for themselves , to come to... new markets, to create the necessary infrastructure for this, so that this whole system would work as an export corporation belarus. the export potential of belarus is, of course, first of all, these are our business entities, so i would like to wish them to work aggressively and promote their products to foreign markets, engage in effective import substitution and do everything to ensure that our slogan is made in belarus always answered that it is of high quality, it always tastes great and it is accessible. new markets, new geography, new quality, this is the norm for an exporter, so this should always be the case, so then we would use our full potential. there are words in the bible that the success of building a house is achieved when each of the house builders turns out to be faithful, the one who laid the foundation, built the walls, the roof,
10:40 pm
therefore, in tune with what maxim leninovich said, indeed, success will be when each of ... zveniev worked conscientiously in its area of responsibility, because export is not a discrete process, it is not a point moment that arises at the stage, as i say, of crossing the border or transferring funds, it is from the idea to support, and of course gratitude to the buyer, feedback from the manufacturer about that is, some kind of stimulation, additional support, that there is not even non-trade, not financial contact, we see this in cooperation with new markets, with new countries. with whom contact begins, sometimes even congratulate you on the day the birth of a product buyer leaves him with a good impression and a desire to make contact again, so we ourselves need to expand our perception of exports to boundaries that go beyond the classic format of interaction: sales, transfers. dear experts, thank you for your opinion
10:41 pm
, thank you for coming to our betelerokia studio, finding such an opportunity... realize your capabilities as effectively as possible for the benefit of our country and may the economic environment be favorable for you, goodbye. if we were talking 2 years ago, i would answer you that there are about 70 girls studying in sports schools in belarus, at the moment there are already more than 200 of them, only in the new school year about 100 girls have already come to hockey schools, so yes, hockey in belarus is developing and developing as number among women.
10:42 pm
why did you decide to reach the republican level, the republican championship, what goals to set? in front of us, in principle, this is a logical development of the history of hockey, the history of women’s hockey, and in our country girls have the opportunity practice with boys up to a certain age, play... in hockey , that is, until the age of 13-14, while there are no strength techniques in hockey, and girls play together with boys, but then they are faced with the choice of either continuing to play with boys, where there are already power techniques, either look for other options for developing their sports career, or end it, therefore, in order to give them the opportunity to play further, one of the solutions is hockey, the national hockey championship among women's teams, in principle, in hockey as pro... years, this applies to both boys and girls, and speaking specifically about girls, we are waiting for them at almost any age, because we
10:43 pm
want the development of women’s hockey, moreover, we sometimes even invite girls from related sports, from figure skating, from speed skating sports, and we are also waiting for girls from the age of 6, but it is clear that for some kind of long-term sports career. it is necessary to understand that up to the age of 12 there are certain sensitive periods that are necessary, in which it is necessary to develop certain qualities, and the later you come to hockey, the less likely you are to play it at more than an amateur level, how many schools do we have in belarus today, how developed are they in our regions, how is women’s hockey represented in our regions? 27 state hockey schools in our region country, that is, there is... if you know that there is an ice palace in your city, this means that there is a hockey school in it, in principle you can come and play hockey, at the moment
10:44 pm
girls play hockey in all state hockey schools in the country . it is believed that hockey is not a women's sport, but do you generally agree with this statement? no, i absolutely disagree with this statement, it’s just a sport, and both guys and girls, both men and women play it, hockey for... has one significant difference, just one, but it’s significant; force is prohibited techniques, therefore, hockey is less dangerous for women, but on the other hand, there are certain stereotypes, which also exist, probably thanks to the famous song that hockey is played by real men, this stereotype is not entirely true , women's hockey is safe, women 's hockey... is played all over the world and this is, in principle, a dynamically developing sport, is women's hockey gaining popularity in the world today? in the ranking
10:45 pm
of the international hockey federation there are now 58 national men's teams and 44 women's teams, that is, the difference is not fundamental. and how high is the competition in this sport, specifically in women's hockey, surely it is less today than in men's? well, in general in... in the world they play hockey in seven divisions, in the world championship, competition, of course, is present, there are countries, leaders, as they say, here is canada, it is a multiple world champion, and as they say, and as a rule they are world champions, everyone else plays with each other places, but in principle, competition is growing, women's hockey is developing, and the more countries there are, the more competition there is. well, in the future, can our belarusians participate in the world championships? yes, of course, we will have to start from the lowest divisions, because
10:46 pm
we have no history of participating in women ’s championships, but this is normal practice: when a new team enters the championship system, it starts from the very bottom, then, as it grows, it rises higher and higher. watch everything that modern belarus lives today on the belarus 24 tv channel, this is news from the country and abroad, broadcasts of especially important events, live broadcasts from the scene, current... interviews with famous belarusians, exciting travels around the country,

and discover belarus. let’s take the panyazza beauty, for which lukashenka’s followers are so keen. already in 1989, poland itself was already in trouble palette ropes, and numerous expulsions of polish intellectuals have become a historical cultural trace in historiography. on the contrary, the conclusion of the gidroytsya mirashevskaga. transformed rationally the prastors of modern countries from the cultural-geographical panyatstse " ulp" ukraine, lithuania, belarus, among the neighboring countries of poland - this supolnaya european prastor, between which there is only supratsa and dyyalog provya duts da pharmavannya motsnyh independent demokratychny countries. well, yes, well, we knew that you are slaves, that you are worse than slaves,

would never say such a thing, and the only clay-mixed grunt that is so pathetic, bastard , dirty, vile, piggy that the world has never seen such a shame , you need to be lifted onto a pitchfork, lowered under the perches of a street village outhouse, you are larvae in excrement, you are an absolute chase, but what else is the essence of this rubbish, these flatbreads, when , holding their nose... with their sleeves pulled up, they pull out the sun, they are right there dry up, look at one hog to catch people like you, but people like me, they come, they are friends with me, but they are friends because they understand, they understand that lukashenko is and that tomorrow, they will have to live in this country, and people like you, we then tomorrow the day after tomorrow, we
