from outside. we are starting a new season of our program and so that it turns out fruitful, we are starting with a beautiful, inspiring. footage from turkmenistan, where winter wheat sowing has begun, traditionally sowing began with a prayer for a rich harvest, then the venerable elders threw the first seeds into the ground, and after the blessing of the president of the country , agricultural machinery went out into the fields throughout the republic, beautifully. and in kazakhstan, a new political season has started. the work of parliament on the tradition began with the address of president kassymzhamartatakayev to the main topics were the challenges and problems facing the country: a deficit budget, investment needs, improving the welfare of the population, all this requires a redistribution of income and pushes the country's authorities to increase taxes, introduce a progressive scale for individuals, and reforms in the banking sector.

we will analyze the economic part of the address later, everything there really points to difficult times and upcoming difficult decisions. but first, takayev once again tried try on kazakhstan. before a new round of geopolitical and economic storm. hard times are ahead and if there is discord on board, the ship will not survive. now the hole in

the kazakh budget is about 25% of its expenditure part. the head of state called the two-year non-fulfillment of the revenue part a big miscalculation in the work of the previous and current government. who is to blame and what to do, based on the message, we will discuss with skar, director of the center for applied research. so, the deficit in the kazakh budget is a problem. the president did not keep silent about who who is to blame and what is proposed to be done? the problem of the budget deficit, it has worsened this year, this is due to a large shortfall in taxes that go to the budget, on the other hand, our expenses are growing, over the past 3 years, budget expenses have grown by 60%, this is a large amount, mainly social expenses are growing, benefits, pensions, salaries of teachers and doctors, this gap between expenses and income is already 30%. and it is financed by two sources, the first is the national fund, it is actively used for just

financing the budget deficit, well, on the other hand, government loans are increasing, that is, at high rates, because we now have very high interest rates, so the situation is already becoming critical, and the president in his message just noted this problem, so that it does not become systemic, now the government will work in two directions, in terms of revenues there will be... a new tax code will be adopted in terms of expenses, an audit of expenses will be carried out and , where possible, optimization will be made. updated the tax code was supposed to be adopted this year according to the plan, but takayev called for no rush and to postpone the adoption of the new code until next year, what changes are supposed to be made to it? the analog code was being developed for a long time, but there were still many debatable issues, it will now be adopted in the middle of next year , the actions will come into force in... in the sixth year , three points can be noted here: the first is increased

taxation of certain industries, in particular banks, the president spoke about the fact that, that banks receive very high incomes taxes should be paid proportionally. the second issue is the introduction of a progressive scale of income tax for individuals, and i think that such a scale will be introduced, but it will not affect the majority of kazakhstanis it is necessary to pay a higher tax rate. incomes will be precisely those people who receive extremely high incomes. and the third point is the optimization of tax benefits. the banking sector was subjected to very serious criticism in the president's message. what changes are ripe here? the main criticism is in relation to banking sector is that lending to the real sector, that is, business, is stagnating in kazakhstan. our key rate is about 14%, which is a very high value. and it is quite difficult for businesses to get loans at such... therefore, in order to somehow solve the problem,

our government subsidizes loans, issues preferential loans, and most likely this practice will continue. perhaps the main figure from takayev's message is the number six. a referendum on the issue is scheduled for october 6 construction of a nuclear power plant. the question is really insane. kazakhstan is already lacking important energy, what kind of investments can we talk about in conditions of energy deficit, what kind of industry can we develop without electricity, and what kind of talk about the welfare of the population in the dark. so, a vote is scheduled for october 6, the amount that will cost to hold the referendum is known, more than 30 million dollars. this money will go to the salaries of precinct commissions, ballots, and other office work. of course, the figure is not... set with the cost of the future nuclear power plant, there the count goes into billions, and closer to ten, but the money

is still big and clearly not superfluous, but apparently, such is the price of democracy. and in other news: csto military exercises have started in kyrgyzstan, which are divided into several stages, from coordinating intelligence activities to practicing scenarios of collective force response to certain threats, in addition to... agents of the armed forces of russia, belarus, tajikistan and kazakhstan, employees of the ministry of internal affairs, the ministry of emergency situations and the national guard have joined the maneuvers participating countries. representatives from china, iran, mongolia, saudi arabia, uzbekistan and several other countries have been invited as observers. in tashkent, they paid tribute to the memory of the first president of uzbekistan islam karimov, who passed away 8 years ago. the current president shavkat mirziyoyev personally laid flowers at his memorial. in addition, a memorial ceremony was held in the moscow square named after karimov, where employees of the uzbek embassy of the agency for external labor migration gathered. the first

world championship in gushtengire. this is a national wrestling, the history of which goes back several thousand years. its rules allow any hold above the waist, as well as throws through the legs. participants cannot do without comprehensive fist training. athletes from more than 60 countries competed in nine weight categories, and the host team won. the ministry of digital development of kazakhstan signed a memorandum. all of them will allegedly work exclusively to provide access. to the internet. and continuing the energy theme, it is important the event took place at the end of august. astana and tashkent intend to enrich the friendship between the countries with uranium. during the visit of the president of kazakhstan to tajikistan, a memorandum of cooperation was signed between the enterprises of kazatomprom and tajik rare metals.

they agreed to jointly engage in the exploration, production and processing of uranium and rare earths, as well as to conduct research work, training specialists, and the introduction of new technologies. kazatomprom is the world's largest uranium producer. in 2023 , the company accounted for about 20% of the total world production of this natural element. kaztamprom mines uranium at twenty-six sites of thirteen deposits in the turkestan, kazalardinsky and north kazakhstan regions, here they are all on the map. the annual production volume is more than 20,000 tons. the deposits are polygons where many wells are installed , uranium is leached from underground. at all deposits, mining is carried out jointly with foreign companies, these are partners from russia, the usa, canada, france, japan and china. all uranium mined to date is exported. the tajik company tajred is a state unitary

enterprise, on its balance sheet are all tailings and waste dumps of the country's uranium industry. it is worth noting that, according to various estimates, tajikistan may hide even more uranium than kazakhstan, from 14 to 16% of all world reserves. it turns out that the memorandum was signed by the owners of almost a third of all planetary reserves of this most valuable element and fuel of the present and future. we will discuss the prospects of such a tandem with the editor-in-chief analytical publication geoenergetika-info boris martsinkevich. so, both countries have colossal uranium reserves, at least based on statistics, in your opinion, what are the prospects for such cooperation, why do astana and dushanbe need it? tajikistan has not been involved in uranium mining all these years, in my opinion, the fact that it is entering or thinking about entering this market

is completely justified right now, world spot prices for uranium ore have risen to $ 90 per pound, and this is completely. as for kazakhstan, let's not forget that for the second decade it has been the leader in the world market in terms of production volumes, has vast experience, has its own technologies for ore enrichment, but at the current rate of about 22.00 tons per year of production volume, the moment is already visible on the horizon when the main deposits will be developed, unless of course geologists can say their new word to both countries. profitable for completely obvious reasons, and what can this mean for the world uranium market and considering how active foreign companies are in the extraction of this element in kazakhstan, a number of analysts voice the opinion that in this way foreign companies gain access, including to tajik rare earths and uranium,

taking into account again the experience of kaztamprom, it knows how to work on the world market, i think that not kazakhstan. tajikistan their joint ventures, if they arise, will work in such a way as not to distort the price situation on the market. as for the participation of foreign companies in the extraction of uranium ore in kazakhstan, i remind you that kaztamprom is a 100% state-owned company, another thing is that joint ventures are created for each field, here there is already a shareholding of foreigners, but according to the current legislation of kazakhstan , the controlling stake is always.

as for the reduction in production volumes, there is none, that there is not enough sulfuric acid, yes, there is such information, as part of kaztamprom, there are no own factories for the production of sulfuric acid, it would be possible, probably, to solve this problem due to the fact that the oil that is produced on the territory of kazakhstan itself, since the main volume of production is carried out under agreements and production sharing with foreign companies, yes... what other events did the past week stand out for? in bishkek , the reconstruction of the spartak stadium was completed, which is now not only the largest

sports arena in kyrgyzstan, but also the most modern. there, the stands and under-stands premises were completely renovated, the running tracks were expanded, and most importantly, a new football field with an automatic irrigation system was laid. meanwhile, a scandal occurred in the kazakh football championship, six rounds before the end of the season, the coach resigned. the institute of international relations under the ministry of foreign affairs of the republic of kazakhstan held a scientific conference on the occasion of the translation into farsi of one of gurbanguly berdumuhamedov's books. it is dedicated to the mother of arkadag himself and, in general, to the turkmen traditions of honoring mothers. a large-scale special operation of the national security committee was carried out in almaty and other regions of kazakhstan, as a result of which six suspects in extremism and propaganda of terrorism were detained. these are, as specified,

five citizens of the republic itself, including two previously convicted, one foreigner. in general, 200 terrorist attacks were prevented in the cis last year alone. the figure is terrifying, if you recall the horrors that... could not be prevented, the data was cited in tashkent, where the tenth international scientific and practical conference of the regional anti-terrorist structure of the sco was held, and where the cis conference on combating terrorism and extremism was also held. the problem is incredibly acute, a trend towards the development of radical islamist structures has emerged throughout central asia. against this background, the ministry of internal affairs proposes to toughen the punishment for propaganda of extremism and calls for the seizure of power. in the certificate of foundation.

according to analysts, more than 80% of internet users in kyrgyzstan regularly encounter propaganda of terrorism and extremism, while about 85% of kyrgyz citizens recruited into the ranks of radical islamists first came to the attention of recruiters via the internet, while being outside the republic as labor migrants. it is significant that back in 2023, kyrgyzstan adopted a law on countering extremist activity and the discussion of this novel in... parliament was very stormy and extremely demonstrative, it revealed a large support group for the radical islamist organization tabligh jamaat among the deputies in the parliament of the republic. at the same time, tabligh

jamaat is officially banned and recognized as an extremist organization in russia, tajikistan, uzbekistan and kazakhstan. it is significant that the us and its allies do not consider tabligh jamaat an extremist organization, and it is no secret that this structure itself was created in the forties with the financial. support of great britain. right now in central asia all the keys to the security of the entire eurasian space are laid, these threats of a terrorist nature, and they have just such an extra-regional nature of origin. directly adjacent to the region, to our region, that is, afghanistan, despite the taliban coming to power, despite their efforts to cleanse their. territory from these extra-regional inclusions, then the threat remains, it is quite high, the remnants of black al-qaeda are now trying to consolidate their efforts with other

formations - the international black international, and this black international, unfortunately, continues to be financed, continues to be provided with everything necessary for their criminal activities by the western community, but at the same time the western community considers them to be giving them, yes, these... yarlyki, either fighters for the faith, or fighters for democracy, or something else, one way or another they avoid this public da shmyovaniye, it is clear that this is their brainchild, they have been writing them for decades, therefore these double standards, they come from there. surprisingly, but it is a fact: the first plane in tajikistan appeared 2 years before the car, 5 years before the train, civil aviation tajikistan. this year marks 100 years. on september 3 , twenty-four, the passenger plane junkers made its first flight to dushanbe from bukhara. the pilots rachibek akhriev and

petr. komarov were at the controls of the machine. already in 1930 in dushanbe a first-class airport is being built. a year later , airfields appear in kulyab, garm, pyanzh and dangara. tajik aviation provided regular connections with all high-mountain settlements. domestic flights were carried out daily in thirty-three directions. only in the territory of the gorno-badakhshan autonomous region , seven airports received regular flights. and in tajikistan, pilots made one of the most dramatic. emergency landings in the history of soviet civil aviation, it was here that a pilot managed to land a plane for the first time in the ussr emergency aircraft on foam. in the eighty -eighth year at the airport of dushanbe on the tu-154, flying to moscow, the strut of the road failed, it was decided to land the emergency aircraft here at the dushanbe airfield. the runway was filled with fire foam, how the machine would behave no one knew experiments, no one had done anything like that. as

a result, the airliner still. went beyond the strip, but the energy was extinguished and it stopped just a few meters from the concrete fence. the aircraft was controlled by the crew commander vladimir anatolyevich giro. for for his courage he was awarded the order of the red banner of labor. we are starting a new season from the heart of asia. let it be fruitful for good news, let there be much light, bright takeoffs, all the landings will be soft. see you, as usual, next week, watch out. i say, let's go see how they go to first grade, let's go, let's see how he went to first grade, for god's sake, for christ's sake, not a single one of my unborn children, please, do not offend the people who
