MINSK, 3 July (BelTA) – The world's tallest building – the skyscraper Burj Khalifa – has been lit with colors of the Belarusian flag in honor of Belarus' Independence Day.

A video of it is available in the Facebook account of the Belarusian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, BelTA has learned.

The skyscraper Burj Khalifa is 828 meters high. It is located in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates. The building's shape resembles a stalagmite. The building was solemnly opened on 4 January 2010.

MINSK, 6 July (BelTA) - The Belarusian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (BelCCI) and Belarusbank have signed a memorandum on joint actions to promote export for 2020-2021, BelTA learned from the BelCCI.

On behalf of the BelCCI, the document was signed by its Chairman Vladimir Ulakhovich and on behalf of Belarusbank – by First Deputy Chairman of the Board Aleksandr Polivko.

The document consolidates the efforts to promote Belarusian exports. The parties agreed to step up cooperation in such areas as dissemination of information on national export, organization of seminars on financial support for exports, joint market research and consulting services in support of exports, organization of national and international exhibitions, promotion of international contacts of Belarusian enterprises and raising the awareness about export financial support possibilities during foreign economic events.

After the signing ceremony, Belarusbank was given a certificate of accession to the Belarusian Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

MINSK, 2 July (BelTA) – Belarus President Aleksandr Lukashenko has sent greetings to his compatriots as the country celebrates Independence Day, BelTA learned from the press service of the Belarusian leader.

“For every Belarusian this day carries a special meaning. Our more than 1,000-year history has been marked with constant struggle of people for their land, spiritual values and self-determination. Even after the sovereign Republic of Belarus emerged on the world map, the country has constantly had to defend the right to an independent path of development,” the message of greetings reads.

Aleksandr Lukashenko called it symbolic that the country's main holiday is also the day when Belarus was liberated from Nazi invaders. “The Great Victory saved us from annihilation. We honor the feat of the generation of victors who overcame a formidable enemy and who rebuilt the country out of ruins," the head of state said.

“Today, the Republic of Belarus is an established independent state where every citizen can reach any heights in profession, art, sport, social and family life. We will continue to strengthen our sovereignty and build the future of the country on the principles of justice, equality and care for people,” the Belarusian leader noted.

The president also wished his compatriots strong health, well-being and peaceful sky over their heads.

On the eve of Independence Day of the Republic of Belarus, 37 mothers of many children in the Minsk region were awarded the Order of the Mother. The presentation of valuable awards took place within the walls of the National Library.

Women are unique. They mastered the profession of drivers and pilots, win medals at world championships, and head enterprises and organizations. But their main achievement is motherhood.

Moms invited to the solemn event realized themselves in this role more than once: they gave birth and bring up five and more children. And everyone was surrounded by love, care and attention. And this is a serious work that does not know weekends and holidays, does not accept sick leave and fatigue.

“In our country, much attention is paid to issues of motherhood and childhood. The provision of housing, the provision of family capital, assistance in raising and educating children, solving everyday problems for large families - all of this is under the constant control of the Head of State and the entire vertical of the executive branch,” said Alexander Turchin, chairman of Minsk Oblast Executive Committee, addressing mothers. - And it brings a good result. The number of large families is increasing. Now in the Minsk region there are almost 19 thousand of them, more than 60 thousand children are being brought up in them.”

The head of the central region emphasized that the maternal mission is second to none. The choice in favor of a large and strong family is a crucial step requiring tremendous spiritual and physical strength. Growing up, giving a decent education, as the people say, “put on the feet” of five or more children, is a real female feat that deserves a high sign of maternal valor. That is why the President of the Republic of Belarus decided to award the Order of the Mother.

Along with the words of gratitude, Alexander Turchin presented the mothers with many children with well-deserved awards, which are confirmation of their high maternal qualities and gratitude for the upbringing of new citizens of our country.

In response, on behalf of all the mothers, a resident of the Minsk region Kristina Yanchiy spoke. She sincerely thanked for the support provided to large families in Belarus and promised to raise true patriots of our Motherland.

Olga Rodevich, mother of five children from Berezino, agrees with her. “Thanks to the support of the state, we built a house where each child has his own room and this is a great happiness. Did I plan to become a mother of many children? Of course, after all, she herself grew up in a large family, Olga shared. - Is it difficult? It's not always the same. But I am a teacher by education, and it helps a lot. Children are the most valuable gift. From childhood we accustom ourselves to work and mutual assistance.”

After the award ceremony, an open dialogue took place during which mothers with many children talked with the head of the region and asked Alexander Turchin exciting questions.

And in the evening they will take part in a ceremony with the participation of the President, which will be held in the Palace of the Republic.

MINSK, 1 July (BelTA) – Minsk National Airport has reopened for passenger traffic, BelTA learned from the press service of the airport.

The previous Lufthansa passenger flight to the Belarusian capital took place on 18 March. The Embraer E-190 was greeted with a water salute upon landing, which is a tradition in international aviation,” the press service said.

MINSK, 1 July – The agreements on visa facilitation and readmission between Belarus and the European Union entered into force on 1 July, BelTA reports.

In line with the agreement on visa facilitation, the cost of a short-term Schengen visa for Belarusians has dropped to €35. The agreement also provides for a possibility to waive visa fees for certain categories of applicants. In addition to that, the maximum fee charged by visa application centers for facilitating visa processes has also been reduced, so has the period during which consulates should process visa applications.

Several groups of Belarusian nationals will be able to apply for multiple-entry visas with a longer period of validity (up to five years). The agreement simplifies the documentation which needs to be presented by certain categories of citizens.

Once the readmission agreement comes into force, Belarus and the European Union will have to readmit their own citizens, third-country nationals, and stateless persons, who do not meet or no longer meet the requirements to legally stay in each other's territory. The document provides for a two-year transition period in respect of the readmission of third-country nationals. The joint declaration attached to the readmission agreement obliges the European Union to provide technical and financial assistance to Belarus in this field.

The agreements on visa facilitation and readmission were signed in Brussels on 8 January 2020. The documents were ratified by the National Assembly of Belarus and endorsed by the European Parliament.

The visa facilitation agreement is expected to make mutual travel easier, to promote international contacts and tourism, and to strengthen trust and mutual understanding between peoples.

Allocation of land, major repairs of a residential building, improvement of the road, creation of a barrier-free environment at the place of residence. Residents of the central region voiced these and other problematic issues today, on July 1, at a personal reception at the chairman of Minsk Oblast Executive Committee, Alexander Turchin, which took place in a telephone conversation.

A resident of the Velichkovichi agricultural town of Soligorsk region, Alexander Ilyich, appealed to the head of the region for assistance in allocating a land plot to his peasant farm OJSC “Agrofirm Krasnaya Niva”. “Now in my use of 21 hectares of land where cereals are grown, I would like to increase the allotment by at least the same amount, and if possible, by 100 hectares. I can’t find mutual understanding with local authorities, if they offer some kind of site, it’s difficult to process. And I want to develop my enterprise, get a good result. ” Alexander Turchin noted that in such a case it is impossible to put obstacles to people. Therefore, until October 1, when the autumn field work ends, 20 hectares of land will be allocated to the farmer. But with the condition: productivity and efficiency of their use should be higher than the average for the region.

Irina Konstantinovna from Slutsk outlined a problem that worries all residents of a 4-apartment apartment building on Sovetskaya Street. Since 2012, it has been on the balance sheet of OJSC Slutsk cheese-making plant. As the woman said, the house is almost 60 years old, but there has never been a major overhaul in it, although tenants regularly pay money for these purposes. Due to the lack of blind areas and plums, mold constantly appears on the walls. Equally worrisome are cracks in ceilings in apartments. The head of the region promised that by October 1 a major overhaul in the house will be completed. He also recommended residents to switch to service in the housing and communal services.

The owner of ODO “Discrete Market” Alexey Valerievich wants to get an additional land plot adjacent to the functioning shopping center of the company on Sovetskaya Street in Zaslavl. “I plan to use it for the construction of parking spaces and improvement of the adjacent territory, but have not yet received permission, since there is the production and warehouse base of the Mingaz Unitary Enterprise. We offered the company to buy their land, but, as I understand it, they are considering it for other construction, in particular residential buildings. Meanwhile, we want to reconstruct the shopping center, expand its functionality and bring it closer to the level of the capital. Help in resolving the issue. " Alexander Turchin noted that the issue will be worked out in detail. It is necessary to analyze which object I really need now. I will glorify it and build on this. It is important that the conditions in the satellite city are close to metropolitan.

In total, 20 people made an appointment with the head of the region. The questions that have been voiced are put under control. Each of them will have to be worked out individually and give people justified answers about the decisions made.
