of more than 100 thousand industrial buildings and tens of thousands of collective farms, ruins, and below where in the late thirties of the last century there were museums, schools, theaters and libraries and academy of sciences, then still the bssr. in fact , immediately after the war, a specially created emergency state commission estimated the total material damage to the belarusian ussr from the german occupation at 75 billion soviet rubles. to understand, the amount was 35 times higher than the state budget of the republic in 1940, but the worst thing is the loss of life, according to the same chgk, again, presented shortly after the victory , 2 million 2119.316 civilians and prisoners of war were killed on the territory of belarus. today there is documentary evidence the fact that in fact, on the territory of our country during the great patriotic war,

at least 3 million civilians and prisoners of war were killed, we will talk about what price in the distant forties of the last century the belarusian people paid for our peaceful sky today, we will talk in this issue the science project is nearby, my name is ekaterina beretskaya, hello, look at the program. every third person died, and this is not the final figure. new facts from the materials of the criminal case about the genocide of the belarusian people during the great patriotic war domestic. at least 2.300 billion dollars. who, why today, is counting the material damage from the german occupation and the unknown page of the history of the great patriotic war, which is being discovered by modern belarusian researchers in a long conversation with a historian in the program studio. in april 2021

, the prosecutor general of our country, andrei shved , makes a sensational statement; a decision was made to initiate a criminal case on the genocide of the belarusian people during the great patriotic war in the post-war period. to the question of journalists, but in fact, probably, to that moment of many people, why a clear answer is given in order to restore social and historical justice, as well as eliminate whiteness. stains on history. today, more than 3 years later, looking at the colossal amount of work done and its results, and this includes new terrible data on the dead and brutally tortured civilians, we can say with confidence that everything has already worked out, but the investigation into an unprecedented criminal case continues . my colleagues have collected the latest facts. for almost 80 years we believed that

the fascists on our land destroyed 9,200 villages and hamlets, but during the investigation of a criminal case about the genocide of the belarusian people during the period of the great fatherland.

material assets, destruction, buildings, structures. the second part is indirect damage, which is expressed in the fact that during the war the country's economy was thrown back far back. and, of course, the post-war period was taken into account, which experts call the echo of war. these are the funds that were spent to eliminate the destruction in our country. in 1946, a state government was already in operation emergency commission for calculating damage. and we, of course, studied everything.

and the devastation that occurred after the war, the national income was projected, that is, we proceeded from the forecast that our country, if military actions had not prevented it, would have developed in the same way as before the war. thus, experts came to the conclusion that our country reached the pre-war economic level only in the sixtieth year of the last century, then all that remained was to add up the resulting amounts. it was decided that we would transfer the historical amounts should in gold. by weight, the mass of gold, gold was chosen as a universal meter, so we first converted the entire amount of damage into dollars, based on the dollar quote at that time, we converted it to the mass of gold, we received 4300 tons of gold, but the investigation

of the case has not yet been completed, and one more fact, very soon we will learn new data, thanks to which we will once again be convinced that the feat of our great-grandfathers... the number of deaths during the great patriotic war. and the latest research by historians on the topic of the german occupation on air very soon. soon after the start of the investigation into the unprecedented criminal

case of the genocide of the belarusian people during the great patriotic war , an interdepartmental working group was created on the basis of the institute of history of the academy of sciences of our country, which...

and the military. hitler believed that this issue should be returned to after they

had achieved their ultimate goals, that is , to defeat the soviet union, force it to capitulate there and drive them beyond the arkhangelsk-astrakhan line. therefore, there was arbitrariness here, everyone here was to himself master, they did whatever they wanted, i will, of course, comply with the general guidelines and we know that there were constant... squabbles between himler's ss department and the civilian occupation authorities, but if we talk about the general district of avaisrutenia belarus, this is the central part of the bssr, in which this general district was deployed, they constantly had disputes and conflicts of varying degrees of intensity with the security police and isd, they decided, well, the question is actually this, you know, it’s cynical, scary, with what

you shouldn’t destroy the world with speed, it was the same executioner, only more pragmatic in relation to these bloody boys from the sd, well, the cruelty that the fascists did at that time on our lands seems to me to be basically impossible to explain, they burned people alive , now, thanks to the results obtained during the investigation of the criminal case, we understand that the figures that were mentioned earlier, regarding the burned villages and towns, they are well... different now, that is, there are more of them, so tell me how difficult it is in general and

is it really possible to establish an exact figure of how many people were killed by the nazis on our land in those years, because now we are talking about the fact that there are already at least 3 million. let's start with the first part of your question regarding why there is such cruelty, there is such the term " here is hitler's germany, the ministry of propaganda led by goebbels, they paid great attention to this for their soldiers. to their policemen, subjects of the third reich, they completely dehumanized, say, the jews, showing them as people who generally have no right to life, they dehumanized the slavs, showing them in the role of untermensch, that is, not subhuman, well, this is typical colonial thinking, when we came to another continent, where people with a different

skin color walk around, they are not people, in general , they can be shown in zoos, as was the case in europe. before the war, when they were shown, well , in menageries, in zoos they brought people there, this dehumanization, permissiveness, impunity, they together led to the fact that here they did whatever they wanted and it was not worth asking, sometimes in the form of excesses there were such indicative ones, but they punished someone, but this is a consequence of a conflict between departments, then they used these factors to show that... here you went too far in relation to the belarusians, so they were punished some kind of punishment, there, but i’m saying this, these are interdepartmental conflicts that manifested themselves in this way, and in general, yes, this is a population that needs to be exploited, and mercilessly, inhumanly exploited, in general destroy, because

they didn’t need so many slaves, for each white master there had to be two servants from among this well... inhabitants of the conquered territory, they solved the issue of reducing the population radically, destroying it using different methods, killing, forcing to die from hunger, cold and inhuman, well, hard physical work. now, as for counting casualties during a war, this is always the most difficult question, especially if we are talking about such a large-scale war that took place 80 years ago, there is no...

new evidence allowing us to say that this figure, unfortunately, can be increased, which, in fact , is happening; the topic of material damage caused is also raised, why, in principle , to do this and whether there was any

- of course, there was material compensation after the great victory from germany, or specifically to the soviet union or the bssr, this is a common practice of war. the country is the aggressor, it then pays indemnities and reparations or the losing side, regardless of what it is was an aggressor or not an aggressor, but we saw during the occupation period how the german authorities organized outright robbery, that is, no one has lost to anyone yet, no act of surrender has yet been signed, when one can demand reparations and indemnities there, but...

but what is used are archives, witnesses, there are fewer and fewer eyewitnesses, or it is still possible to talk with the participants and witnesses, maybe some international projects, assistance, or in the current conditions this is no longer the case as it could be, in the course of work on criminal case, the prosecutor's office uses it within the framework of criminal procedure legislation. there are investigative and procedural actions, yes, when they interrogate and interrogate a witness, inspect the sites of incidents, the historian is deprived of this opportunity, he can talk with someone from... an eyewitness during a business trip there, going to a place there, but mainly if take me, we are working with archival materials, identifying

new documents in the archives that can shed light on the circumstances of this the destruction of our populated areas , the destruction of people, as for international cooperation, the political situation now is such that our international cooperation in this regard. this, in general, concerns only the union state of russia, and russia , within the framework of the union state , forums are held, this is such a big project without a statute of limitations, and it is not subject to obliteration, there is, within the framework of which we meet with russian colleagues, exchange with them experience, knowledge, because they have a different experience in work, they are also carrying out the same work to collect evidence about the genocide of the population, but...

forty-third year, let’s say, the junction with forty-four, yes, and, of course, where the front stood, there were villages, in in principle , there was nothing left of them there, and this could

have been without any punitive operation, simply the resettlement of the population, and they were dismantled into dugouts and so on and so forth, there was forced resettlement, artillery shelling, bombing, continuous, few people know that minsk after the liberation of july 2 more the germans bombed for weeks, you know that at that time until... july 11, the cauldron was closed, near minsk, so there were attempts to help the somehow surrounded group of fascist troops, so minsk suffered even after the liberation. probably the last question, valery nikolaevich, how did you come to this topic, why and maybe there is something that you , well, discovered, yes, in the sources or some recent new facts, most of you.

in the army, they somehow participated in punitive activities against civilians and partisans, and if in our in nuremberg, the ss is recognized as a criminal organization, the wehrmacht is not, much less abvar is not, these are such knights in white gloves, and these knights, major kribetz, the head of the minsk branch of abvar, are at least witnesses from among abvar’s employees who appeared here with us. court in the bssr, they said that he was the initiator of the burning of stalag prisoners of war 352 sick, today this is the belinsky military town area, there are pushkin

barracks, there was a flagger branch there. 352 he had a forest part, here was a city part , burning in a barracks along with prisoners of war doctors and nurses burned them there. not to mention the units assigned to the abwehr during the war, these were geheimfeld policemen and groups of secret field police, in fact, these were the histapa, who operated under the security divisions and were engaged in the extermination of the civilian population of partisans and underground fighters there. participated in punitive, so i came to this through this, but as if being inside my topic, and here , after being part of an interdepartmental working group, we have already expanded and are working, look, now i’m working with security mottos, their participation in punitive actions against the belarusian civilian population, i read quite a lot, there was a period when

there was insomnia. because you read the mechanism of this destruction, the episodes, especially, if we say so in general, they were destroyed, it’s something like this, when you read the testimony of the german communications platoon commander, he was from the 392 oberfelt-kammandatura, we have it in minsk was located during the period of occupation and, in general, on the territory of the general district of belarus exercised its executive power there. well, including participating in punitive operations, when he described the execution of jews in march of forty-two, near minsk, he settled on what he said, children were not shot, there was a pillar near the ditch, well, maybe they dug him in on purpose, maybe he ended up there, so they smashed their heads against this pillar, and then threw them there, or when you watch a chronicle of the war, when they raise...

destroyed bodies and there is a small child, well , in belarusian, not a movlyatka, yes he has a pacifier, this is not for telling children stories, yes, but know this we need to do everything to prevent this from happening again, thank you very much for finding time for our program, but most importantly for doing the work that, well , it seems to me, and i’m sure everyone will agree with me, everything is important today and is needed in order... for our future generations to move on, thank you very much, thank you, there is no nobler mission than preserving historical memory in the name of a bright future, these words belong to the president of belarus alexander lukashenko. and perhaps this phrase reflects in the best possible way the meaning of the work that our scientists have been conducting, essentially since

the moment. great victory, so that today we, our descendants, can proudly say: belarus remembers, remembers, sacredly honors and will always suppress any attempts to rewrite history. farmers have something to be proud of, we fully provide ourselves with food, enough for export, we sell almost $7.5 billion worth of food to hundreds of countries on the planet, and this despite falling world prices, with good agricultural technology, with a good approach, today we can get wonderful harvests from our varieties . our corn differs there by 3-4 centners out of 100,

and if you compare how much more expensive the seeds for sowing are, then imported corn becomes unprofitable. belarus is among the top five countries exporting dairy products and among the top 20 leading sellers of meat products. but there is no need to stop there; the well-being of our people and food security depend on the state of affairs in the countryside. our institute is engaged in the production of original elite seeds, and the most important thing is that we can give new varieties from science that are productive, distinguish. main topics on the main broadcast. watch on the belarus 24 tv channel. they absorb knowledge with an enviable appetite. is it true that in developed countries the male population predominates over the female population? the female population predominates there because men have a higher mortality rate in childhood. what do you think caused this? various factors me.

dad used to throw it into the river when he was a child, and then they brilliantly answer the host’s questions, does anyone know why september is called september, not because it’s the seventh month, no, nikita, that’s great. this is the seventh month september is simply called an ordinal number, relatively speaking, even adults are delighted with the erudition of these guys, and why the population, it seems to me, cannot be included in the top ten countries in the world.
