we know far beyond the boundaries of the tomsk region, we have two groups that came here today, this ensemble belaya rus and the medunitsa ensemble. i want means that these two groups have the status of national. in general, this is my first time at the festivals of belarusians of the world, but every year we send someone, for example, not the last time, i think, our country was represented by a composer from murcia. spaniard, but he speaks russian perfectly, and six people, spaniards, who will sing in the belarusian language, we have a lot of literary projects, because in spain

, representatives of our diaspora are many translators, just teachers, so as far as scientific activities, translation activities, then to spain.

i left in 1979, but to this day i kind of live on tomsk land, however, i have already lived longer than i lived in belarus, but at

first i came every six months, there was such an opportunity, there was a kind of a huge desire to come, but i come. in the ostashinskaya eight-year school, in the ostashinskaya eight-year school i worked for more than 10 years, a pioneer leader, so i still maintain relations with my pioneers, so i will say, i left 15 years ago, and well, i met there with the belarusian community, or rather so i was looking for them, to be honest, i knew that there is a belarusian community in armenia, and i definitely wanted to meet the chairman, well, it just happened like... like i wanted, because i have always been a creative person, i love my profession, i have always

this unites these two peoples, the weather unites them, probably now,

because it seems to me that we brought you wonderful weather from spain, i don't remember minsk in september having such a wonderful air temperature and such sunshine and everything being so green, so i think that this is what unites us now we are united by common values, it seems to me, it is hospitality, because both belarus and armenia are very hospitable countries, very... in general, we play belarusian songs, we often meet with those who

come to us, this is your russian drama theater, these are the pesnyary, once during the great patriotic war , the yanka kupala theater worked on the territory of tomsk, so when the kupala theater came, we have such photographs, well, let's say, cool, wonderful photographs, where it is clear it was clear that we really met as family.

we all get together, celebrate our national holidays, the last of these holidays was kupala, when we gathered with our children,

taught them to weave wreaths, launch them on water, jump over a fire, and of course this is always accompanied by. and not only singing, but also tasting traditional belarusian cuisine. in addition, we celebrate literary evenings associated with certain dates of our belarusian writers, this year we also had a very interesting an event for children on new year's eve dedicated to st. nicholas. i am involved in educational projects, i bring spaniards here. for linguistic internships in the summer, and my students are spaniards, very creative people, and one of them is angeles maestro, a prominent political and cultural figure, who returned from belarus last year and invited me to participate with her in this project and translate vasil bykov into spanish, i was imbued

with the atmosphere of the brest fortress khatyn, i visited the dacha museum at irina knyazeva's, an absolutely wonderful person, who is very erudite, knows a lot , so inspired our anhalis that when she returned, we got to work, she translated from russian into spanish, i checked the rules with the belarusian version, so here is the result of our work, i think that today we will transfer it to the national library, to the ministry of culture, the most interesting thing is that...

it is difficult to say what has not been preserved, but within the framework of the project, my ancestors are from belarus, which we won a presidential grant, and we in general, we have collected a wealth of material, namely the memories of people who have belarusian roots, about their family, about the war years, about different years...

there are a lot of children here, because everything we do, we do, including for them. we live according to the folk calendar. we once received disks, the first ones, remember, then there were disks, the belarusian folk calendar. here, it's like a video, and there are all these folk holidays, calendar holidays, now we have a cycle of autumn holidays already on the board, we again have everything written out by month in the belarusian language, but next to it we write the words "what is this month called in kazakh, also a greeting, that is, everything as a reminder, according to the calendar, what are the main holidays now, but i definitely have a karava, they are already waiting. children, they love this karavai, we decorate it together, this day, the bogatsa holiday we definitely do, we bow to the low earth, we

called this holiday that way, since people of different nationalities live with us, and we bow to the low earth, which gives to people who have worked, gives a harvest, and we also perform the harvest ceremony there, and then the big program, refreshments, the evening party goes on for half, this is when we have the opportunity to spend the holidays in nature, like the hooting of spring, we go out to the ertyzh creek, we have a wonderful embankment there, but there are such descents to the river, where this living nature is, the snow has not melted, the ice floes have not yet gone, there are trees, all this can also be beautifully played out, we also sing there, dance in a circle and ask for the sun to come down sooner, here we are through the women's club belorusochka at ... the youth have a club istoki, there has never been such a holiday belarusian, which we would miss, is easter, and christmas, and carols, and harvest, all

well, i come here quite often, because my parents live here, i really love freedom square, i really love

independence avenue, and of course the place where i studied at the pedagogical university, it is impossible not to love everything that is connected with the homeland, i love every little corner, i remember school, i remember the river, i remember my hut, by the way, my hut is still preserved where it lived. mom, where we lived, it still stands, and, like, maybe it's time to remove it, but still your heart is drawn there, and if i have the opportunity to somehow go there, i will definitely do it, i like to stand and think a lot, right next to the island of tears, because this is again a historical memory that cannot be erased or removed, so for me it is a place where you can stand, think, reflect, i love the old suburb, i love any... where our willows grow, so i love to be on the river bank, and there next to us we once lived in the belarus hotel, and there is a lake nearby, it is impossible

to tear your eyes away from the beauty that really exists, our region is harsh, i am talking about tomsk, why is it harsh, because here we do not have time, it seems like we have warmed up, good, the weather is beautiful, suddenly white-white snow fell on the yellow leaves, that’s it, that’s it and that beauty is gone. and we have cedars there, we have a majestic fox, here are my favorite birches, everything is perceived with a new feeling, because, probably, time goes by, goes by, and you look at some things differently, also, as for staying, here in this holy place, at the temple of all saints we took a photo, at the monument to metropolitan philaret, may he rest in peace, who blessed and brought to our distant pavlodar particles of the relics. of course, this is the center of minsk, and not far from minsk we really like to go to raubichi, silich, lagoisk, in this direction, just to go, to enjoy.

sat, but for us it is something extraordinary every time. i will take away the heart of love, respect for us, love.
