Top hours of minsk and moscow. A meeting of the highlevel group of the council of ministers of the union state took place in the belarusian capital. The guidelines for further work in the integration format were the decisions approved at the january meeting of the Supreme State council of the union state. We discussed logistics, joint projects, electronic digital signature, recognition of entry visas for citizens from third countries. And here are a few quotes about the main thing. Key. Which was outlined at the meeting of the Supreme State council on january 29 of this year by the president s of our countries, openness, sincerity, consideration of each others interests is supported without exception by all ministries and departments. Once again, this does not mean that there are no practical disputes or reductions in positions. This does not mean that each side does not have the right to offer its opinion or its position so that we reach a common result, but it confirms that we have. A huge resource of trust, readiness to jointly resolve complex issues to strengthen the competitiveness of the National Economies of belarus and russia in implementation of joint plans determined by the heads of state and heads of government. An important block that we listened to today is, of course, the industrial block, all our cooperation and integration projects in the field of import substitution, this is machine tool building, microelectronics, aircraft manufacturing, the president s in this regard are constantly pushing us to do specific content, to involve more enterprises in this work , were constantly looking for cooperative connections, revising investment budgets somewhere, in order to find Additional Resources in these areas, we are saying that a system of Information Exchange should be put in place to enable us to mutually recognize entry visas. For citizens of third countries, so that this Border Crossing for citizens of these states also becomes possible today. The treasure of the belarusian subsoil is a national treasure; it must be managed competently and in a businesslike manner; president Alexander Lukashenko demands this. During a big conversation, problems and prospects were discussed. Geologists of exploration and mining. This is even more relevant now, when sanctions pressure is increasing against our countries. We need to look at the future, look for and find resources. There are enough fields, Industrial Oil reserves are more than 44 million tons. Rut salts, three deposits, several areas, a similar situation for rock salt, as well as quartz sands, clay, dolamide, pressed and mineral groundwater. All this is collateral. Watch, and this is the main theme of the program, that in the silver suitcases that the president they brought lukashenko right during the meeting , reporters asked this question, and half the site revealed the secret, this is exactly what the rock from which oil is extracted in belarus looks like, and its not easy, but there is technology, and our own ones and have stepped far forward, about what goes into the bowels its worth looking not just deeper, more attentively, the president of belarus will speak at the meeting several times and sort it out, everything, were talking about our natural resources, where they werent developed, it happened in soviet times, we produced how many million tons of oil, about 8 million. Oil, let there be about eight, according to my data nine, okay, today we extract two, about 2 million, associated gas and so on , whats the matter, they explain to me, they pumped everything out, i dont believe in it, belarus by nature only got so much useful minerals and natural resources, this myth has long been debunked by scientists and geological exploration, belarusian wealth is not only blue lakes with fresh water and a swamp with peat, rut ore, a drop of oil, today, the conditions for Oil Production on the territory of the republic of belarus have changed, if 5060 years ago, these were rocks that were rugged and porous, but today it is possible to extract oil from rocks that already today have low capacitive filtration characteristics; in order for these rocks to release oil, it is necessary to perform hydraulic fracturing and. Build horizontal wells, which is what belarus oil does today . In general, the system is wellfunctioning, and some may envy the state of affairs of oil workers and track workers in belarus, but with the participation of the state leader, it is customary to sort out problems more than to boast about successes. In the geological register contains more than 50 types of minerals, but taking into account imports, there are also departmental interests pulling the blanket in their direction, Alexander Lukashenkos demand to ensure unified control over development. And the place of birth, for example , road workers need sand, they only extract it from a quarry, builders are interested in crushed stone, energy peat, and if the next layer under it lies some kind of mineral, basalt, whoever assesses the situation, decides to extract it or not, evaluates whether, where the supervising role of the ministry of nature, import Mineral Resources in the country decreases every year, this means that technologies. The enrichment of our Mineral Resources are coming new and improving, which means that the responsibility of subsoil users is increasing, which means that i mentioned such figures that if back in the seventeenth year we imported about 6. 9 million tons of minerals into the country, then in 2023 this is only 1,150,000 tons, this is a significant decrease, of course, it is sometimes impossible to replace imported materials with our own, this. For example, it can be seen from construction projects, investments are needed to fix statistics, the share in the total volume of imported Building Materials is 15 , for the government this, of course, is not the final bar, the first is the creation of artificial gypsum stone, based on chemical production waste, the second direction is the production of soda ash, we have for this our own resources, this is waste from the rut production, this is our lime, this is expansion gas, that is, we are 70, more than 70 provided with the Raw Materials that are necessary for the production of these products, which first of all, by the way, it is used for glass production, for the glass industry. In the meantime, it will no longer be possible to blame sanctions for the decline in exports. The position of Alexander Lukashenko is that whoever searches finds minerals, resources, and new markets. Here are the latest figures for some export items. Last year, the min. To fuel tickets that are useful for the whole world, let me assign them responsibly specifically in this direction, answer with your head, if you didnt take them there, didnt deliver these pills, well come back to that and to everyone my agreements as a result of recent and previous business trips, not to stop either in Scientific Research or in the development of deposits, not to forget about efficiency. And rational use, producing a product to the maximum from its Raw Materials, this is how the belarusian president sees the development of an industry where the advantages are obvious both for the economy and for the country as a whole. There are three pillars, three Growth Drivers that will allow us to develop further efficiency, import substitution and export. Lets agree that in a year there should be quality all approaches, especially to the quality of work, have been revised. If there is a systemic. Countries, the potential is far from exhausted. 30 years of the countrys fundamental law. On march 15, belarus celebrated constitution day, having gone through a difficult path of formation; today it is this document that is the guarantor of peace and security. The country has chosen the quality of life of its citizens, National Dignity and sovereignty as a development priority, rather than the favor of western european politicians. And this course follows. In a referendum, voting in elections, responded with an absolute majority of votes, observing the law is more than democratic. Partisan politicians imposed on society a scheme of systemic chaos and virtual anarchy, a form of parliamentary republic, but the people chose in favor of a strong government. They tried to divide us according to linguistic and ethnic principles. But the belarusians acted as a United People in support of the state status of our two native languages, they wanted to cut us off from our roots, discrediting the soviet past, but the people, realizing that they were the heirs of the heroic generation of winners, returned to the symbols of the great era. Belarus was dragged into all kinds of alliances in order to break off friendly, close. Integration ties, primarily with russia, but the people did not allow it. And where now are those who broke away from the east slavic family, where are these peoples . We ourselves created our history, our own laws, we also wrote it ourselves, as we knew how then and as we understand now. Therefore , we have been living for a third of a century under informational, political and economic pressure. All this time behind the cordon only. All these 30 years the country has been uniting efforts to strengthen the state foundation, the determining significance of the constitution for the belarusian nation and general approaches to a single legal space. We will discuss with alla shovtsova, candidate of legal sciences, associate professor of the department of constitutional law of the belarusian state university, member of the Scientific Advisory council at the Constitutional Court of belarus. Alla shavtsova, candidate of legal sciences, associate professor of the department of constitutional law of the belarusian state university, graduated from the faculty of law of the belarusian state university, completed an internship at the Institute Constitutional legislative policy. And the Central European university , the academy of management under the president of belarus, the Raoul Wallenberg institute, collaborates with the National Center for legal information of belarus, author of more than 90 scientific papers, awarded numerous commendations, diplomas from the ministries of justice and education of belarus, scientific interests, state legal and international regulation, practice of implementation and protection of human rights and freedoms. The social structure of society changes, therefore, this is the normal course of history in any state. And our republic of belarus is no exception. In many countries , fundamentally new constitutional acts are adopted virtually from scratch, because these fundamental changes relate to the state structure, the Territorial Organization of society, and the form of government in the state may even change. In ninety. A declaration of state sovereignty was adopted, which in the ninetyfirst year was given the status of a constitutional law and it existed as the highest normative legal act, until the adoption of the constitution by the Supreme Council in 1994, the next changes in 1996, and then in 2004, yes, they were of a very important nature, what is the global difference between the constitution of the nineties and. Thats all events that affected both russia and belarus in the light of the application of political sanctions to them by International Organizations and individual states, they were, after all, conditioned, among other things , by the ideological component, first of all, first of all, of course, and one of its components is probably our attitude. To todays political forces, including in many countries, i will remind you, when the universal declaration of human rights was adopted in 1948, already then. One generation in the development of historical civilization, in the development of society, when neonazism raised its head, that we already observed, already in the seventies, eighties, especially in the nineties, so this is the political component, it was exacerbated, many values were questioned, it is enough to remind political events in the baltic countries, after their withdrawal from the soviet. Constitution, that is, in this sense, the discussions concerned a slightly different ideological aspect, here you go, i will show you the previous constitution as amended in 1996 and 2004 , here it is, it was also in force the article, and here too, were fixed, i will even quote for people who doubt, marriage, family, motherhood, fatherhood, childhood are under the protection of the state, women. A man upon reaching marriageable age has the right to voluntarily marry and start a family. Family and marriage are the historical value of our orthodox or catholic people. We must not forget that historically, from the moment belarus, soviet belarus, gained its independence, we had at least four main ones. People, these are belarusians , undoubtedly russians, poles and jews, all these peoples profess, have always professed, was primarily due to the fact that certain elements in our social environment were subjected to the concept of marriage, since even the catholic church, today the highest catholic leadership, has recognized marriage between a man and a man as legal, in some countries this is also legalized and. That it is necessary to refuse to consolidate the union of a man and a woman, simply to consolidate the institution of marriage, but nevertheless , according to the results of the survey, and we had a very largescale survey conducted before the adoption of the constitution, it covered almost all segments of the population, several dozen issues were brought up for discussion, which included constitution, these questions related to various areas of. And i would not be afraid to say one of the most perfect, because before changes and additions were adopted, we analyzed the experience of many constitutional acts, in this sense we can be proud of our constitution , just look at its structure, look at its legal provisions, electoral system, referendum and we will see how democratic and socially oriented it is today. Thank you very much, alla was in our studio. Shovtsova, candidate of legal sciences, associate Professor Department of constitutional law of the belarusian state university. This is belarus that is the main thing in the program. At the meeting of the Eleventh Forum of regions of belarus and russia, preparations were discussed in polotsk.

We choose the best routes, we are located in a small town in the grodno region, called bridges. Welcome. Having eaten too much, we couldnt eat any fish for a long time. Baked, not a fish soup, they just sat and sentenced stolin. From then on the name of the city, stolin, came into being. And we set off on an exciting journey. At the end of the 15th century there was a large settlement on this site. And it appeared at the intersection of major. Trade routes, neman and brezvilnius. Almansky is a real tourist highlight. The only ones preserved in their natural state in belarus and the largest in europe. These are the twenties, thirtynine years. I can safely say that this is the best time for urban architecture. Sidewalks appeared and highways, trees were planted and beautiful New Buildings were built to show how unusually wonderful it was. Our country, when he moved from one place to another, it was the believers themselves, the jews, who unharnessed and transported the horses, from one place to another, now, as we see, the image is clearly visible, colors began to appear, this is , of course, a miracle of god, watch the program of the city of belarus on the belarus 24 tv channel. The legendary belaz, aromatic cheese or the familiar taste of chocolate, industrial tourism is a trend that is present in most regions belarus, has already covered 130 enterprises, and has entered the expanses of the union state. This area is so in demand among russians and belarusians that there are plans to create crossborder projects in this area. Alexey kondratenko went to the minsk tractor plant. Report, excursion program. Our top three includes uzbekistan, china and the Russian Federation in first place. Industrial tourism at the minsk tractor plant started for 7 years.

This is like the population of the Regional Center of belarus. At the same time, guests from the regions of the Russian Federation are increasingly choosing mtz. Among them , Olga Shandurenko from moscow with a group of colleagues, a specialist in projects in the field of urban economics, came to the belarusian capital for a seminar on industrial tourism, and at mtz willingly tried on overalls in order to personally participate in the assembly of a belarus tractor and receive a certificate from a belarusian plant as a bonus.
