Oh I see….so Poland, who couldn't wait to joined NATO to cause havoc around the world and cause the migrant crisis IN THE FIRST PLACE, now wishes to have ALL the migrants stay outside their border and in a country such as Belarus, that has NOTHING TO DO WITH NOTHING when it comes to causing the global havoc. HYPOCRITES.
Shittocrats need to be sent to prison!
Democracy is treason against humanity!
Lukashenko is literally a joke. The man cannot do anything even remotely significant without Putin’s approval.
The only reason Lukashenko even lasted 1 year in power, let alone 25+ years, is because right after he came to power in 1994 he signed an official agreement with Russia to work towards the integration of Belarus into Russia. While not much has been done to integrate Belarus into Russia since then Putin and Russia have not forgotten about that agreement by any stretch of the imagination.
Obviously in the grand scheme of world politics, and to Russia and the large influential nations that they compete with on an international scale, Belarus is a non-factor pretty much 100% of the time. However, it would represent an important ideological and political victory for Putin to absorb Belarus into Russia.
In my my opinion, Lukashenko and Belarus’ fates are pretty much certain. If Lukashenko plays Putin’s game he will be allowed to stay in power until he dies. However, despite Lukashenko being deluded and attempting to groom his sons to take over, Putin will instantly take control upon Lukashenko’s death.
However that’s assuming Lukashenko obeys Putin until he dies. I do not doubt that if Lukashenko starts to act unilaterally that Putin will not hesitate to invade and murder Lukashenko.
Who wants to bet that the 15 former Soviet republics will go Into Civil War?
Imperialist Americans this is your fault hope you know
Apparently they don't want liberals in Belarus….Can we blame them????
Imagine the psychopaths in bunkers.
Dictators or any person that exemplifies traits that stripe individuals of their dignity, identity, rights, and humanity always frame their actions as altruistic, noble, and even patriotic.
This is a Soviet legacy: wanting to remain a dictator.
The same thing is happening in various post-soviet countries like Russia, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, etc
Rebel and fight back!!
Some say the US election was rigged and it's not a democracy when you have to be supported by the 1% rich to be a candidate. If you aren't funded by billionaires and the news media, you don't even get into the debates. The US has become such a ridiculous extremist capitalist nut house, the market decides elections. And the list of fascist dictators the US supported that were not from any election, is quite long. As long as the dictator is a US ally, no problem.
As human population grows even larger, I don't think democracy would work. There will come a time that people will be put on leash lead by authoritarianism to sustain the needs of overpopulated humans.
It is a known Scientific fact that When you are breathing in your own bodily waste you are giving yourself CO2 POISONING.

I like the BIG hats.
protestors?? you mean violent animals throwing rocks at people?
Why are these masked officers beating protestors? Are they not mortified in what they've been assigned to do? Real Nazis vibes. To get the pay check doesn't mean you have to actually beat them up.
What are they saying? We do the same stuff.
This is after he came forward about how the world bank tried to bribe him 900 million to lock his country down during the BS pandemic. This is a hit piece.
Dude needs to be "let go"
ALL. THE. CRIMINALS. WANT. TO BE IN POWER. 😷😷😷😷
There is no democracy,I don’t know what they are fighting for
Poor propaganda against a pure patriot, just because he does not hand over his country to the EU – NATO, they brand him from dictator to fascist to authoritarian and so on. The EU – NATO should focus on their own huge problems instead of dealing with how to steal Belarus milk, meat, trucks, IT sector, potassium, BELAZ etc.
Honestly surprised by the 0 amounts of comments comparing the treatment of the Belarusian people to the "dictatorship" of Biden.
Then again:
1.) These types of people don't generally have an outside of international politics unless it strictly relates to the Southern Border.
2.) These people wouldn't know an actual facistic, dictatorial, oppressive regime if they'd seen one.
3.) They're probably busy any ways taking notes of what they want done once whoever their guy is comes to power.
If the United States media is reporting on your underground resistance it's not underground resistance.
You can usually tell how evil a dictator is by how crazy their hat is!
We're with you kick their ass . 🐺
This is what trump will look like if these republiscum win back congress in 22, it will be a one party state with the orange turd installed as the Fuhrer. Then you will have to swear allegiance to trump.
