more and more it goes into this suitcase without a handle, and then this handle will also be thrown away. when some ties are destroyed, belarus creates practically new things at lightning speed. in general , diplomacy, in the classical sense, is something cautious, conservative with soft paws, right? and then one - zimbabwe, one - china, three - the sco, brix on the horizon, well, there are not enough fingers, where is there so much activity.

of course it’s a pity, because from the point of view of optimality, looking across three seas when you have it here across the border is a big expense, so they have a need, they have there is a need, but today this is the only opportunity, because well , our partners across the bug lack the ability to negotiate , and we always welcome any consultations, we are ready to be open to any negotiations, on any topics, to resolve any issues that are on the agenda, but forced today...

economic, social issues, precisely in that region. well, read all the most famous analysts of this eurasian integration, the eurasian space, they all say that it is there that the a new center of power, attraction for the implementation of the most...

solutions to a bilateral track of issues, this is support in international organizations, and i say that within the framework of these organizations we can rely and believe that our partners will not abandon us and will support us, and practice proves this, this is the solution of financial issues that also concern us today, this means promoting joint projects, for example, such logistics as the transport corridor from belarus. to pakistan via russia, via

kazakhstan, uzbekistan, afghanistan, afghanistan in this regard today is already a calm state, i spoke with the minister of foreign affairs of afghanistan, he told me a lot, how much. today there is serious trade between these two countries, and he even advised us to also go to afghanistan and further through afghanistan, so we still have a lot of stereotypes regarding countries, because we may not know them well, but in fact, these are the broadest opportunities for so multilateral cooperation formats and bilateral ones, behind which specific economic benefits, political positioning of the country, and the most important thing is... strengthening the role of the global south and the member countries of these organizations in terms of countering all these political attacks, sanctions regimes and so on, from the collective west. okay, brix, when will this abbreviation finally become ours? well, there is one topic regarding brix: we

currently cooperate very closely within this organization, we take part in all its segments, meetings at the level of ministers of education, economic issues. carefully formulated, and i want to tell you that taking into account the negotiations held with all the brics member countries, there is an agreement recorded that belarus will be among the first of these partners of this organization, while there is such an expectation that there will be

no more of them than the number members, that is , also 10, so we have confirmation that all brix members are ready to see belarus there as... and why is india interesting to us, since you already remembered about it? well, in fact, i’m just in favor of using any mechanisms in the implementation of our goals, tasks in the development of bilateral interaction with countries, that is, even if it is first ladies and informal

communication, now, based on the results of the visit of the zimbabwean delegation , a delegation of our women's union of belarus is planned to go in the coming days, all these formats serve... . only one thing: strengthening relations, interpersonal contacts, which then leads to economic, political relationships and international support. africa, 1.5 billion population, that's decent. second topic, further dynamics of population growth, and that is, the consumer market will only increase. the next thing is huge resources, according to many of the indicators. more than 30-40% of the global reserves, which are in great demand in metallurgy and industry recently, and look at what kind of independent policy african countries have begun to pursue, more and more, untethering themselves from

some previously imposed agreements or arrangements, let’s call it countries of the collective west, there is an increasing desire there to independently build their own life is independent. the people were not in africa in india, neither the belarusian people nor the soviet people were ever there as a colonizer, we were always there who helped them build their economy, social sphere, infrastructure, unlike western countries that always came there , as a colonist, they sucked out all the wealth, which sucked out everything, which means resources, and neo-colonialism continues today, why do many people think, this happened with libya, how it happened, why

this conflict is in syria, in iraq, that means in their time, why egypt was also shocked by color revolutions, we know where they started, tunisia, because these countries. at some point they moved from such a simple trade with the west, which was expressed like this: there, relatively speaking, there is oil, there are diamonds, bauxite, and something else, in exchange for goods. western equipment moved to the point where they began to develop the corresponding production, at some point a dilemma became for western countries, and so good, buy oil from them, buy some resources from them, we they have to drive something there, and if , strictly speaking, they began to raise their own agriculture, it means that wheat, neither vegetables nor fruits will go there from europe, that is, assembly production has begun there.

these wars between the west and china there in the 16th century, when china simply began to actually pump silver out of the new world and from europe, switching to silver currency, not buying anything in europe, but selling there from... silk to paper and everything else china was famous at that time, so there is the same approach here, purely predatory, and as soon as are starting to develop, these countries are increasingly uninteresting, it is necessary to change the rulers, which means they need to be hooked on luxury goods, which they learned to make in europe during this time, and so that everything is imported there, the peoples, so today these peoples have recovered, today they are ready to develop and we come there with technologies, we come there with assembly plants, we come there with specialists. who teach them competencies, the west doesn’t like this, because love ends immediately,

love ends, but india, well the president always says that with india we should try to reach a level, well , no less than with china, in fact the country is huge, powerful, developed, and of course, opportunities to find some niches where we do not compete or where we are the opposite we can create something together so that it is useful. for both sides, and we could give something somewhere else to foreign markets , no doubt, but we must understand that in india, probably, issues of cooperation with certain countries, the west are a little more of a priority, and of course, in this communication, which means that the inertia of movement is a little greater, but i want to tell you, despite this, there are a number of projects, there are a number of agreements, and i am sure that in the near future, without disclosing them now in nakedness, well, we...

months ago predicted that an assassination attempt would be made on trump, it never happened, here again, so this is what our diplomatic department expects today from the elections in america, well, those who never did, well, probably, some pages from us history were simply forgotten, was and that means kennedy, there were others earlier values.

many today analysts from all countries of the world, from all international organizations, make their predictions about what america will be like, with trump or with biden, make their forecasts, what this will mean for the international security architecture, what this will mean for relations with certain countries, to be honest, i would not make such forecasts today for one reason only, but there are certain things in the trump election campaign. which are close to us and close to many countries that, frankly speaking, are already a little tired

from this mentorship of the united states, interference in topics that, well, from the point of view, so to speak, of the collective international community, well, in principle, is not the business of the united states of america, yeah, in america itself there is also fatigue from the fact that there is so much leadership today. and is less concerned with america’s internal development, the migration agenda, and the creation of workers. places, building security on the streets, in the regions, you see what is happening there today, solving drug problems in the end, right on the streets in the central part, there are politicians who remember that there is the munro doctrine, which said that america has vital interests, here is america, latin america, northern america, everything, and we are nowhere, and we have fenced ourselves off from these, and there are such, so i don’t a lot, we understand that

any of the next presidents will primarily come from... america, these are the interests at that time, i would like these interests to first of all correspond, you know, to such civilized method of achieving your goals abroad, that’s if if this happens, then we will welcome these changes in american foreign policy; if it continues, this means such a policy of unilateral pressure, sanctions, unleashing. after all, these wars, which are on the perimeter of china and russia in hot spots, are all, in fact, sponsored and encouraged precisely from the ocean, points of growth of this conflict potential, which is capable of going beyond the boundaries of purely these regions to embrace more serious interregional

some things, so if instead the leadership will take up the peaceful agenda . i am sure that the authority will only benefit the united states; they will be able to implement a lot of their projects, those that they think that they can implement today only through installing their proteges here and there and implementing their tasks, look what time has shown, wherever they they didn’t climb, well, outside of europe there, yes, then everywhere sooner or later their proteges lost, which means they were forced to leave there. afghanistan, iraq, everywhere, that's all confirms indeed. therefore, if they come to the understanding that through, on the contrary , a non-conference approach, taking greater responsibility for the formation of this new world order, they will be able to introduce this kind of american character, then i think that what they are saying is because

they are not going anywhere. there is no alternative to multipolarity today and in the near future. you can feel the school, maxim vladimirovich, diplomatic, very diplomatic, however, maxim vladimirovich, unfortunately, the last semi-philosophical question, if you compare statements by two famous people regarding the same subject, then you can get completely different answers, but in the opinion of your counterpart, lavrov, with whom you met recently, yes, the main thing is to always remain honest and not...

to children, as the president always says, if you achieve some kind of subjugation of the interests of another country, as nietzsche preaches, that is, he defined it, as the collective west preaches, then of course there will be no stability in these relations, this is the first, second, there will be no further trust in you from the outside third states, because seeing how you get along here, they will also evaluate the prospects for cooperation with you. the most obvious examples. of the large holders there of some kind of bonds or funds, which means in dollars, in euros, they began to slowly get rid of this matter, this

again is predictability and trust of partners, which is built on some examples. if we are talking about the muzzle, well, we have the west, what distinguished itself by the fact that for the last 200-300 years it has been wearing this muzzle on... yes, and they allowed such a massacre, allowing such a massacre, it’s just their good that until now these countries

have not raised the issue of the genocide of their peoples, which was carried out at one time, at a very serious international level, and have not raised the issue of any kind of compensation . who uses muzzle, but i think it’s a matter of time, great, better than the belarusians, yes it’s true, thank you maxim vladimirovich, you know, it was a wonderful conversation, it’s a pity that we are limited in time, thank you, thank you.

good afternoon, the current microphone project is on the air of the belarusian radio and tv channel belarus 24, evgeniy meleshka welcomes you, i’ll immediately introduce ours. guest sergei rachkov, deputy, candidate of sciences, diplomat and, or rather, head, chairman of the standing commission on international affairs of the chamber representatives. hello, sergey anatolyevich, good afternoon. we are doing everything to diversify our economy, but the collective west, the united states, first of all, imposed sanctions on us from all sides, who? i forgot, i want to remind you that this did not happen yesterday or 10 years ago, back in 1997, the restriction of political contacts

occurred, it’s just that from year to year the collective west, as they say, kept tightening the screws, and eventually came to the conclusion that masks have been dropped, we have been called enemies, we are considered enemies. but we are not considered enemies in other parts of the world, first of all this concerns the so-called far arc or the global south, this is the asian, latin american, middle eastern african region, that’s right, so we must not miss this chance, this opportunity to establish new relationships, find new friends , although we always had friends there, we’re just probably not very...

first of all, i’ll emphasize that we have an independent foreign policy, our state, the president determine the direction of both foreign policy activities and foreign economic activity, of course, in choosing partners, we take into account absolutely all factors. the economic, political, diplomatic pressure that western countries exert on the republic of belarus, but in this regard i would like to say

a few... emphasizes that we are diversifying, continuing to work on diversifying our foreign economic relations, and relying primarily on old both new friends and trusted ones, including trusted and trusted friends, but you know that in this hemisphere a significant number of countries.

and here it is necessary, of course, to feel this atmosphere, to rely on trusted friends, which is what the republic of belarus is doing, the visit of the prime minister to cuba, venezuela, nicaragua shows that these countries are strongholds in this region, but there is and other countries, to which i am sure,

such large-scale visits will also take place in the future, primarily on an economic level, yes, the visit is really productive, let’s now watch a short fragment interview with roman golovchenko at the end of this tour. everything in the market is interesting, especially in these conditions in which we work, but we no longer rush, as they say, where we are, we work thoughtfully and planned. and we build relationships primarily with those countries with which we have a joint history, in some places it is more successful, in others there are problems that need to be solved, so the purpose of our such a long visit, tour, one might say, is countries of southern and central america, it is very simple, it consists in fulfilling the task that

the president set, the work that - the situation in the world is complex, it also affects our partners, including ae, so for each country we had a corresponding plan or task that we had to solve, so today, summing up the results can probably be said, well, i, as the head of the delegation, can say that these tasks have been solved, that is, we achieved what we wanted, that is, roman golovchenko says that the president ordered to open a new page in the relationship. and probably we we must say that simple trade and joint production is probably not enough today, this is some other level of relationship, what? well, indeed,

there was an order from the head of state. and, our listeners and we know well that we and the audience, yes, have developed good relations with cuba, with venezuela. but a period of time has come when it was necessary to update and intensify these relationships, because , indeed, the world today is very difficult, it is not only developing around republic of belarus, but also around a number of our friends in south america, latin america, we have excellent political relations with cuba. but cuba is also under very serious pressure from the united states of america, primarily economic. cuba was significantly influenced

by the covid period, when very serious damage was caused to the tourism industry of cuba, so today cuba especially needs to develop economic relations here. here we are, despite all the difficulties, maybe not cuba has a very high solvency, we find opportunities to provide support to cuba and advance our economic interests, this country first of all needs food, dairy products and other products, of course.

purchases of oil from venezuela were stopped, the west also created a certain economic situation to put pressure on the venezuelan authorities through the people, therefore

, a number of economic projects in our country were somewhat slowed down, but now the situation has returned to normal and we are returning again to the projects that we implemented in venezuela, and this is the assembly production of mass trucks, this is tractor production, this is the functioning of agricultural towns, and a number of other projects. it should, yes, it should be noted that at one time venezuela very seriously lent a shoulder to the republic of belarus when it supplied us with oil and...

in this regard, i would like to note that in general latin american countries, the countries of south america, in general they are leaders in creating various integration, integration structures, but i would also like to draw your please note that venezuela is on the threshold of a very major political event, on july 28 presidential elections will take place in...

well, due to what you said,

there is unrest, turbulence in this region and, first of all, probably in venezuela as an oil power , yes, in this regard, say, an oil power, how stable are the political regimes in this region, including venezuela, due to the circumstances that exist today due to the international situation, pressure from the united states, i think... special emphasis was placed in 2000 -

when we started opening an embassy in a number of countries, today we have an embassy in brazil, cuba, venezuela, colombia, uh, so the government, as far as i know, is considering the possibility of opening more diplomatic missions in this...

during during this visit, not only bilateral negotiations took place, but also business meetings were held, business forums concluded contracts between commercial structures, by the way, let's look at another fragment of the interview with roman golovchenko, because he visited another country nicaragua, with which we have a relationship after the collapse of the soviet union. in general, there were practically no relationships as such. i generally

don’t like these words, such packs, a breakthrough, there is a victory and so on, but if you look at things objectively, then of course the result of nicaragle can be called a breakthrough without exaggeration, because a small central american country, we did not have such close relations with them , as with the same venesson.

the united states continues to work with literally every country in this region are trying to restrain their contacts with countries that do not suit the united states, well, first of all, with the republic of belarus, we must pay tribute to the political will, the leadership of these countries, which continue to not only interact with us, but also implement such large...

well, yes, it is necessary continue to work, i can tell you from my own experience that if you talk about difficulties all the time about problems, then it’s unlikely, it’s unlikely that anything will work out, but you also need to remember about them, yes, well,

well, it may be necessary to remember, but not at all it is less necessary to set certain goals to work systematically, but if there is... the work is built systematically, not, you know, episodically, from one visit, the visit was carried out and forgotten for 2-3 years, yes, then, of course, there will be no results , this result, it was achieved precisely due to the systematic work of the government, the ministry of foreign affairs, our enterprises, exporters, the development bank, because, of course, this is the largest contract, it... promoting their goods to these markets, therefore, but and i want to tell you that there is always

a certain competition, competitiveness between countries, between diplomats, who are of course surprised by some of our successes, where perhaps they did not expect and themselves, perhaps they did not work, but here is the result, well... a large delegation left, this it means that certain serious results were prepared, and people knew what they were doing, what they were leading to with this visit, well, if the embassy, ​​if all those structures that i mentioned above continue to work systematically, then i assure you, not the united states of america. no one else will be able to stop the development of these relations, including in the economic sphere. well, let’s

hope that we will be able to do everything that we have outlined, we hope that the united states will not be able to interfere with us, especially since their situation today is not the most rosy and generally interesting, on the one hand, we are a lot. we talk about what is happening in the united states during this election campaign, we are surprised, we laugh, we are upset, today it is known that on the one hand, like the main candidate and practically without competition is donald trump, although there is information that haris is already ahead of trump by a couple of percentage points in some polls.

economics, in the investment sphere, in

the humanitarian sphere, of course, we are interested in what is happening today in the united states of america for cooperation in specific areas, because it is the largest country, it undoubtedly influences the development of the situation in various regions of the world, unfortunately , ongoing external. the globalism policy of this country is not always justified, and we see that today this, including us interference and attempts to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, also has a negative impact on the situation in the country itself, when the country’s leadership does not deal with its own problems. but he looks into other countries , which means he’s trying to change the order there, or

try to build people up so that they live according to the rules that the americans themselves don’t always understand, and most importantly, don’t comply with, but the fact is that now there is an active election campaign, and this a domestic political matter, of course, connected... unsuccessful for biden, but i want to tell you, as a specialist, i was surprised to learn

that the first debate between trump and biden would take place so early. now i’m even beginning to lean towards the opinion that the democratic party deliberately exposed biden to this blow, knowing in advance that he would not withstand it, in order to castling its candidates, well, this, of course , can be very, how can i say, offensive for for... biden, but this is a very tough policy, we see, i already said the other day literally in the first comment there is such an assumption that maybe we will see biden step down from the post of president of the united states, give way to camille harris, who will serve as the acting

president of the united states, what else will create for her? and as for, returning to south america, of course, today for sure, and we feel it, that the united states is not so attentive to these countries now, they are busy with their own problems, including the issues of ukraine, which, of course, us this topic especially worries, it affects us, it

directly concerns us, but... national assembly, and i say goodbye to you, all the best, take care of yourself and see you!

the ministry of industry today exports to 60 countries, rebooting economic ties with venezuela, we are discussing export-import. antimonopoly investigation, cartel collusion and its consequences.
