live news, tatyana nikrasova in the studio, good afternoon and briefly about the main events of the day: sovereign policy respect for partner countries, the president accepted credentials from ambassadors of foreign states. escalation of the conflict in the middle east, idf ground operation in lebanon, through the eyes of the media and experts. and the prosecutor general's office looks into sales of drones and parts for them on the marketplace.

the diplomatic pool has been updated in belarus. nine ambassadors are starting work in our country: representatives of asian, african, middle eastern and central america. today, diplomats presented their credentials to the head of the belarusian state. the ceremony took place in the palace of independence. our political observer ilona krasutskaya has the details. negotiations with diplomats, regular events in the presidential schedule, they occur not only at the start of the mission, but also at its completion, to thank for the work, to sum up some results. this time, diplomats from such countries as algeria, burundi, the dominican republic, kazakhstan, china, kuwait, mauritania, serbia came to minsk and uruguay. in terms of the economy, it is very important to work on the active implementation of our joint projects in the field of industrial cooperation. we have 11 such projects, already underway. i hope that their number will grow. we will strive to make it possible.

diplomats of exotic countries often choose national costumes, otherwise there are many protocol moments, anthem, the transfer of credentials personally to the president, diplomats present them in alphabetical order.

they consider their one-sided, outdated perception of the world order to be normal, where there are first-class people, and if someone disagrees with their point of view, they are stifled by sanctions and various restrictions. minsk has been facing such injustice for many years, practically throughout its entire sovereign history. nevertheless, we take the liberty of pursuing an independent policy. position based on international law , internal and external, we always defend our justice. alexander lukashenko will say a few words about each of the countries represented by diplomats, including from the point of view of how to move forward in bilateral relations, what projects may be the most promising. the diplomats are starting their mission at an interesting time, presidential elections are coming up in belarus. everything is classic - this is another reason for external attacks, this also needs to be learned. this

campaign of attacks on belarus has already begun, you know this, they have probably already started writing drafts of high-profile plans to overthrow the regime and asking for millions of dollars in grants for these useless goals. every 5 years they ask, i will immediately disappoint the ideological inspirers, to destabilize the situation, to plunge the country into the abyss of chaos, we did not allow and will not allow, you will see it.

first information. belarus is committed to security and peace. the head of state discussed issues of nuclear energy at a meeting with the director general of the international atomic energy agency. minsk highly appreciates it. this is a matter of global security in the region. also, the atomic energy agency was maximally involved in the construction of the most modern belarusian npp. this is an experience that will still be useful to many countries, noted alexander lukashenko. we have become a nuclear power, we have built a nuclear power plant. by the way, i would like to draw your attention to the most modern and the safest, i hope, nuclear power plant in the world, our peculiarity is that we built it, well, figuratively speaking, from scratch, we had no specialists, no experience, no knowledge in operating a nuclear power plant, but we

learned this, we trained specialists in time, the russian federation and the magat provided us with great assistance in this regard.

it is especially gratifying to hear that at the highest level, in this case at the level of the head of state, the most serious commitment to nuclear safety, and above all, speaks of the professionalism that your country has on the long road to restoring the nuclear power producing state. i would like to note that the project... to build a nuclear power plant had many questions and many challenges from the very beginning, and belarus in this case serves as an example of how a country can work with the agency, how closely it can interact with

experts and missions of our organization and shows in particular the openness of your country to this issue. let us recall. the government of the belarusian npp has become the most high-tech and large-scale joint project of minsk and moscow. its cost is more than 6 billion dollars, about 40 belarusian and russian organizations took part in the construction. the npp will provide. more than 40% of the country's domestic electricity needs reduces dependence on natural gas supplies has a positive effect on the environment. greenhouse gas emissions are reduced by 7 million tons per year already for behind closed doors, they talked a lot about the situation in the region, in particular about russia and ukraine. in this context, the president emphasized: magatha and personally grossi could make a great contribution to the peacekeeping mission between moscow and kiev. the seimas of lithuania denounced three international agreements with belarus.

national security of lithuania, but of all of europe. lebanon is on the threshold of the most dangerous stage in its history, this is how the acting prime minister of the country commented on the actions of israel. let us recall that the idf began a ground operation against hezbollah in this arab republic. over the past 24 hours , more than 90 people have been killed and 172 injured in israeli strikes. in response, hezbollah launched a missile strike on the headquarters of massad and an israeli military intelligence base. the united states is also taking part in the conflict. according to sky news arabia, washington has called on the lebanese army command to agree to

an unconditional ceasefire. at the same time, the white house fears retaliatory measures from iran after the start of the idf operation in lebanon and began to transfer forces to the middle east to contain tehran. according to the wall street journal, the iranian leadership was divided on what further actions to take, between a tough reaction and a restrained one for the sake of concessions from the west.

there is a strong internal conflict within israeli society for the situation. the prosecutor general's office of belarus demanded that the online store vadberrys stop selling drones to individuals. a representation was made to the director of the belarusian branch of the marketplace elimination of the causes and conditions that contributed to the sale

by individuals on the trading platform of unmanned aerial vehicles, aircraft models from... the decree of the head of state has established a ban on the import of unmanned aerial vehicles, aircraft models, spare parts for them into belarus, as well as their storage, circulation and operation. the very operation of drones in violation of the established procedure for the use of airspace entails liability for administrative offenses, a fine is provided. construction of infrastructure and housing is a state priority aimed at increasing the level of comfort for citizens, including in new microdistricts, and also caring for young families. the keys to rental apartments

along with congratulations were presented today to the servicemen of the mogilev garrison. until now, we rented an apartment in a private housing stock under a contract, but now we can say our own corner. naturally, this is a very important moment for any military family, because everyday life is an integral part of the successful implementation any tasks. this year, the second stage of military cases has already received the keys. a third stage of about 24 apartments is also expected, a system has been created for the possibility of subsequently buying out.
