- This is the fifth event we have, and every time I worry, it’s like the first time. Why? I know what rural labor is. My parents lived all their lives in a private house, my father worked in a combine harvester. We always had these stories with plots of potatoes and beets that had to be sown, weeded... And I know how hard it is to get up early in the morning, feed your animals, milk your cow, then go to work and work there. And then come home, meet your husband, feed the children. It's really hard! But you do it so easily! And yet you remain so beautiful, amazing, sincere! I think the kindest women work in agriculture and live in rural areas. They always live with a smile, always with an open heart, always ready to help. Stay that way always! the chairman of the BSJ addressed the participants of the celebration.
She stressed that a lot is being done for women in the country – even the President devoted a year to a Belarusian woman. Despite the fact that 2026 is coming to an end, attention to the issues that concern the fair sex, according to Olga Shpilevskaya, will not end.
- Enjoy tonight and enjoy it! I want you to feel that this evening is for each of you, hear words of gratitude and just relax from your daily worries, said Olga Shpilevskaya.
The welcome address from the Chairman of the Council of the Republic of the National Assembly Natalia Kochanova was read out by the Chairman of the Standing Commission of the Council of the Republic on Education, Science, Culture and Social Development Natalia Pavlyuchenko. She noticed:
- Today in the hall are those for whom the chosen profession is a matter of life.
After the solemn part, the guests of the Bolshoi Theatre were shown the colorful ballet “Bayaderka”. The forum will continue tomorrow - excursions are planned for those who traveled for a long time today, and free time for a leisurely walk for villagers who have already got acquainted with the capital with the help of guides.
