sphere of interests on the air on the first information channel we talk about notable events in economy, i am svetlana lukinyuk, hello, first the main topics of today's issue. forecast 2025 - a high bar for the economy and an accurate calculation for all industries. let's discuss the numbers together. eurasian brands and digital platforms - what the premiers in armenia talked about at the intergovernmental council and our exposition at the import exhibition in shanghai. what will we bring and where else do we plan to visit? we are opening a direction for export. we will talk about this, as well as current exchange rates, in the next 15 minutes. the eurasian economic union is 10 years old. internal trade has doubled during this time, external trade by 60%. at the same time , the efficiency of integration work within the eac is increasing. it is confirmed by such figures as, for example, last year, mutual trade increased by 17% compared to 2022. and by 2015, it had doubled. the main

focus now is on developing a dialogue with third countries on a network of trade agreements and expanding the geography of interaction. as well as creating our own eurasian brands. what does official minsk insist on? let's listen to the main statement at intergovernmental council and the eurasian economic forum in yerevan. this meeting in yerevan is an opportunity to compare positions on current integration issues. everyone is unanimous in the opinion that it is time to switch from. to export, to develop our own technologies. minsk insists on this. the key topic on the forum is digitalization. belarus is ready to actively develop cooperation in the it sphere with its partners in the union, while the digital must fully serve the interests of the common market. only within the framework of the industry informatization program of industry to the end by the twenty-fifth year , more than 340 digital development projects will be implemented by enterprises of the republic. work is underway to create a cloud. digital platform to

provide information and analytical support for the management processes of the country's industrial complex. the main objective of this project is the seamless integration of various applications on a single microservice digital platform. also, belarusian manufacturers, in close cooperation with their russian colleagues , are also working on solving a related problem, implementing developments in the field of micro- and optoelectronics. the presence of our countries ' own. well, the term known to the general public is an important component of digital sovereignty and security, that is, not only software, but also hardware. the eurasian economic commission presented the concept of a digital union for the integration of digitalization processes in the eurasian economic union. its goal is to show people and businesses the real benefits of eurasian economic integration. the main thing is the inviolability of digital sovereignty. three main ones were voiced.

principles of this concept. first: compatibility will not require changes to national digital platforms. the regulatory and infrastructure solutions that we plan to use in forming the digital union will be adaptive and universal. second, synchronization. seamless interaction between national digital platforms will be possible. creating an infrastructure adapter or a kind of socket socket or.

member states of industries ranging from aircraft manufacturing, space technology, to paper and jewelry production products. the intergovernmental council emphasized that it is important to fully launch the subsidy program at the expense of the eac budget in the coming year, as well as to create specific projects and high-tech goods under the eurasian brand. this is the direction that will become the target work during belarus' chairmanship of the eurasian economic union. in fact, we are only stating. we are recording the independent implementation by countries of projects related to import substitution, industrial development projects on each other's territory, that is, if there is a desire - cooperate, if there is no voluntary desire, well, it will all happen, in particular, question eleven about joint

import substitution projects, well, i want to say, we do not have joint projects, our task is to find joint projects, this task is not easy in my opinion. but the board should pay the most fundamental attention to this issue. let me remind you that the next time the prime ministers of the five countries will meet in december in moscow. the topics voiced in yerevan will be continued. belarus has drawn up economic plans for the next 2025, the figures were calculated in detail, stating the main thing in the forecast is high rates of economic growth above the world average and... a focus on investments, exports and production programs, so there are more than 600 investment projects in the plans, with over 200 within the framework of the district initiative, one project. the document was actively discussed at the stage of layout in the government, well, now

the deputies have joined in. it also became known that mobile operators will be able to issue microloans in belarus. the document was supported by the house of representatives. in the country popular service, get a loan. it's easier from a microfinance organization than from a bank. we'll tell you in detail about the new rules, as well as about what else the parliament is preparing to adopt, in particular the package of budget documents. but first things first, olga onishchenko. on credit, quickly, without guarantors, you only need a passport. do you know? if you're in a pinch, quick financial assistance seems like a salvation from all financial problems, but as soon as it's time to pay the bills, quick money doesn't seem so good. good ideas. the parliament proposes to protect citizens from ill-considered loans. microfinance organizations are convenient, many will say, especially from the category of those who applied to the bank and were refused. and a microloan does not require from the recipient either a credit history or proof of income. urgently and guaranteed need for money, a pawnshop, for

example, will probably not refuse anyone, but the amounts of interest payments can bring any borrower to his senses, but as a rule, after receiving the money. the main problem. in microloans is that these are increased interest rates, which was noted in that including in the letter of the state control committee, and of course, if we calculate that - the average daily interest rate is 0.9%, multiply it by 365 days and get quite high amounts that scare people, this bondage that they can get into because of high interest rates, of course this is the subject of regulation of this draft law, which is important, now it has been decided to limit interest rates, that is ... the amount of interest will not be able to exceed the amount of the entire loan, which often happened. deputies promise a noticeable reduction in the financial burden. and yes, now a microloan is not only a pawnshop, but an opportunity to borrow from mobile operators, and also count on a payment deferment. this applies to consumer

loans and only in certain cases. the deferment will be provided to five categories of difficult life situations, this is the loss of a job. this is the death of a spouse, an increase in persons on the dependent, temporary disability for more than 40 days, as well as recognition of the borrower as disabled in accordance with the law. on discussions in parliament now and a package of budget documents, there are still a few months to come to the final version, but in the first approximation the 2025 budget is already taking shape. deputies will say that the main financial document will not undergo any cardinal changes. the social vector, as before, is not...

exprt, investments, incomes and so on. these are always extremely precise parameters for the development of the coming year, which are supported by sound calculations with an eye on possible external obstacles. sanctions, of course, are adjusted policy, but do not cancel. benchmark for gdp 2025. the forecast adds export, supplies of goods and services should

add almost 5.5%. the bet on the growth of physical volumes, in other words, more products, good and different, will go to foreign markets. as for investments, noticeable shifts are expected by almost 8% more than this year. prices are also in the forecast, a corridor of 5%. the government aims to strictly adhere to this goal, to maintain prices, thereby maintaining consumer demand. and finally. incomes are also in the plus - 4%. olga onishchenko and dmitry garkusha, the sphere of interests. this is the sphere of interests, and we are now continuing the results of trades on the belarusian currency and stock exchange . we will tell you about the current rates. so, the dollar costs 3 rubles 26 kopecks. the euro according to the national bank is 3.60. for 10 yuan at the auction they gave 4 rubles 67 kopecks. and 3.46 belarusian rubles are worth it. bel interespo is preparing a national exposition of belarusian

manufacturers at the seventh china international import expo in shanghai. it will be held from november 5 to 10. within the framework of import expo, each country is provided with a site for a comprehensive presentation in the field development of trade, investment, as well as achievements in the development of industry and tourism. it is expected that at least a hundred countries will take part, including belarus. we will now talk about the preparation for this... year, i will even say that we have attracted chinese

experts to represent the republic of belarus in this, to convey belarusian elements, belarusian culture, to become understandable, this year we have made a theme, the main theme, this is belovezhskaya pushcha, as is already known, this exhibition is image-building, political, but of course it has economic nature, therefore the republic of belarus participates in commercial pavilions, this year we have only two pavilions, these are food products. food security the second pavilion is high-tech equipment, where we have fewer, of course, participants, but at the same time we will present even those interesting things that the republic of belarus is famous for, and of course, we are the country that china gives participation in the country pavilion, and this is just such a mini-expo, a mini-chinese expo, where the country should show itself, in this year we have the theme of belovezhskaya pushcha, now we are actively working on it, as i have already with...

we hope that this year we will have 60 companies participating, but to generate interest no worse than last year, like our kosovo castle. well, we saw, there were shots here, namely in belarusian food products, then this is a win-win option to bring exactly belarusian products. the chinese like it. formats are changing, so we are welcome guests our enterprises are welcome guests at all

exhibitions in any regions. well, if to talk about exhibitions in general and about the one that will be in shanghai, and about others, in general it is more about showing yourself, looking at others, or, let's say, taking such a major step towards future contracts? an exhibition - you can say, and as there is three-in-one coffee, so here it is five-in-one, it is about showing yourself, showing your brand, it is about looking at what is being shown. others, it is about taking other people's ideas, bringing them to your market, and most importantly finding a supplier.
