Volozhin Region
Executive Committee

Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko has received a report from Prosecutor General Andrei Shved, BelTA has learned.

At the beginning of the meeting, the head of state briefly listed the key issues he wanted to raise with the prosecutor general. Among them was control over the compliance with the rule of law in the military and law enforcement agencies, approaches to making this work effective. Another topic was the ongoing investigation into the genocide of the Belarusian people. Aleksandr Lukashenko also focused on the role of the Prosecutor General's Office in overseeing and identifying problems in agriculture and industry.

“I would like to discuss with you these three blocks of issues,” Aleksandr Lukashenko said.

Establishment of a system of military prosecutors

“This is not the first time that I have raised the issue of control, prosecutorial supervision in the Armed Forces, compliance with laws and so on. What is the state of things today?” the Belarusian leader asked. “A great number of proposals are coming, including proposals to create some system of military prosecutors. I am saying ‘some system' because we are not planning to return to that Soviet practice. But we should have some elements of it,” the president said.

According to Aleksandr Lukashenko, there are many points of view on this issue. He asked about the rationale behind Andrei Shved's position. “I know your position, but what are the reasons behind it? Indeed, we do need to strengthen control over compliance with the law among the military. I have already told you that the prosecutor's office had somewhat moved away from the power bloc some time ago”, the president said.

The head of state noted that it is not only about the army, because uniformed services include many other agencies, like the Emergencies Ministry, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the State Security Committee. “Prosecutors should keep an eye on everything,” the Belarusian leader is sure.

Genocide investigation

“The second point is the genocide. A number of proposals have been made to raise awareness of the genocide of the Belarusian people during the Great Patriotic War in our society, especially among young people. Young people should know what happened. Why? To prevent it from happening again,” the president said.

Aleksandr Lukashenko asked how this work is being done at the moment and what is to be undertaken in the future.

Key economic matters

The third topic of the report was also important, the head of state stressed. “Instructions related to key economic matters have been given to the prosecutor general. As far as agriculture is concerned, the major issues here are livestock loss and problems related to salary payments. Don't take your eye off the ball,” the president noted.

In the same vein, the prosecution authorities should counter and prevent manifestations of corruption. “This is commonplace, first of all, for the industrial sector. How are things in this regard in Gomel Oblast? There were many complaints some time ago. How is the new governor coping with these issues?” the Belarusian leader asked.

А также смогли понаблюдать за домашними и экзотическими птицами и животными в зоосаду. 

Ребятам очень понравилась экскурсия. Полные новыми и интересными впечатлениями они вернулись домой.

The organizing committee for the 11th Forum of Regions of Belarus and Russia will be formed in the near future, Chair of the Council of the Republic of the National Assembly of Belarus Natalya Kochanova told BelTA.

“Over a decade-long history of the Forum of Regions of Belarus and Russia, a good tradition has developed that the venue for the forum is determined by the host country. Belarus and Russia take turns in hosting the forum. At the suggestion of Vitebsk Oblast Governor Aleksandr Subbotin, the 11th Forum of Regions of Belarus and Russia will be hosted by the city of Vitebsk in 2024, which is wonderful. First of all, ancient Vitebsk is the birthplace of the Slavianski Bazaar festival that is a showcase event for the centuries-old and unique Slavic culture that enriched the world with extraordinary spirituality, depth and beauty. It is a symbol of value-based unity and a civilized dialogue with all like-minded people who also value peace and creation. I am sure that the extraordinary atmosphere of this city will give the participants and guests of the forum strength and inspiration for new good achievements,” said Natalya Kochanova.

Naturally, the high-profile level of the recent anniversary forum obliges the organizers to thoroughly prepare for the next one, the speaker emphasized. “I have already discussed preparations for the next year's forum with the regional authorities. An organizing committee from the Belarusian side will be formed soon to develop proposals regarding the number and themes of sections, as well as the themes of exhibition and cultural events,” said the chair of the Council of the Republic.

В спортивно-оздоровительном лагере «Островок здоровья» у всех прекрасное настроение. Воспитанники весело провели зарядку, покушали в столовой и отправились на экскурсию в национальный олимпийский комитет Республики Беларусь г.Минска, где посетили Олимпийский музей.

В ходе экскурсии спортсмены-учащиеся узнали, что музей Олимпийской славы — это единственная в Беларуси экспозиция, в которой собраны экспонаты, касающиеся белорусских и советских олимпийцев, различных видов спорта и выдающихся деятелей физической культуры. Многие экспонаты были переданы в музей самим спортсменами, их тренерами и спортивными деятелями. Среди экспонатов есть образцы олимпийских медалей разных лет.

Чтобы не терять спортивной подготовки, после вкусного обеда ребята вместе с тренерами-преподавателями играли в спортландию, победу одержала дружба!

День в спортивно-оздоровительном лагере «Островок здоровья» на базе ГУ «Детско-юношеская спортивная школа Воложинского района» начался как обычно, по режиму: зарядка, завтрак, учебно-тренировочные занятия. Далее спортсмены-учащиеся встречали гостей из г. Вилейки (ФОЦ), с которыми провели совместный открытый турнир по теннису настольному, посвященному Году мира и созидания. Все ребята показали отличные результаты и были награждены дипломами и сладкими подарками. После обеда все отправились на улицу, чтобы поиграть в любимые игры и, конечно же, не забыли про минутку безопасности на тему «Осторожно: клещи!»

 Молодежные экипажи, водители на отвозке, студотряды на зернотоках - моложедь традиционно вносит свой вклад в уборку хлеба. О том, сколько ребят трудится в хозяйствах Минщины, корреспонденту БЕЛТА сообщили в Минском областном комитете общественной организации БРСМ.

Пока в хозяйствах нет массовой уборки зерновых, начнется она примерно через неделю-полторы, поэтому цифра участников жатвы также изменится. Если в прошлом году на середину июля в полях работало 50 молодежных экипажей, то в настоящее время их насчитывается 27.

Также в страде сейчас участвует 41 молодой водитель. Примечательно, что среди них в этом сезоне есть первый тысячник. Это Алексей Казак из Клецкого района, работающий на автомобиле МАЗ.

На помощь хозяйствам выехали и 17 студенческих отрядов, сформированных из 205 парней и девушек.

Поддержать боевой дух и вдохновить на новые трудовые заслуги помогают меры стимулирования молодых участников жатвы. Так, в прошлом году 80 экипажей и 35 водителей получили благодарности и подарки от областного комитета.

Награждались труженики за каждую намолоченную и отвезенную тонну зерна. Комбайны и машины участников были отмечены специальной табличкой "Молодежь за урожай", сообщили в комитете.
