- In today’s video we discuss the history of Lukashenka’s Belarus. The authoritarian Belarusian president took power at the beginning of Belarus’s post-Soviet history. We discuss Belarus’s history timeline and Alyaksandr Lukashenka’s Russian ambitions. Do Belarusians want democracy? How are Belarus-Russia relations? Is Belarus a post-Communist country?

@@amcespana2150buzzwords
A sensible description of the modern history of Belarus
how do you know?
Very good video my friend
12:10 Gives a whole new meaning to "Dumber than a box of nails". In other words, there aren't many things as ludicrous to be charged with the 'theft' of a box of nails.
Excellent historical documentary
excellent propaganda garbage
@@amcespana2150 The only people that believe it's propaganda are Trump/Putin supporters.
Komentarz dla statystyk
What are you talking about? Are you even looking around?
- War in Moldova
- 7 wars in Georgia
- War in Azerbaijan (and in Armenia)
- War in Tajikistan
- War in Chechnia
- Bink of war in Kyrgyzstan
- And now the War in Ukraine (for 10 years already)
Russia did not let any single country off the hook. Not a single one that tried to look West. NOT A SINGLE ONE!! You cannot compare Belarus to Poland, Slovakia, Czechia, Romania or any other NATO member.
Unless you are ready to accept Belarus into NATO right now, immediately - no delays, no negotiations, no preconditions, no criteria, nothing, immediately, and move NATO troops inside of Belarus right away... if you are not ready for that - then the status quo (no war, no destruction, no deaths) is the best deal Belarus can hope for so far.
Wake the F up! And compare apples to apples.

God bless you man !!!
Thanks.
Free Belarus 💪✨❤️
Belarus is already "free" unlike of the western europe colonies
there is no any freedom in nazist 'russian world'.@@amcespana2150
@@amcespana2150 yes, and now lukashenko fascist state can freely get rid off from any national symbols and national language, be faascist russia puppet - is the real freedm unlike, in EU, of course
Жыве Беларусь!
Thanks
La sovranità non é mai sprecata! Importante mantenerla!
they didnt build an independent nation with its own culture, own flag and language and sold themselves to russia, lukashenko adopted russian and decided to stay soviet
These are actions that one would expect from a demoralized nation without any kind of horizon for future or conscious will for self-determination.
Well done Belarus
Theese documentaries are great, but releasing them in this way isn’t very strategic. If You want wider public aim for quantity with shorter form movies. As far as I know it should stimulate algorithm much better. Love Your work either way! Good luck!
I, for one, don’t want super summarized videos on subjects like these, I want the gritty explaining of why things are as they are.
Screw the algorithm just focus on making great content
best country in this world
That place should be squeezed ecomically
u can't. many structures function in Belarus without any currency. sanctions worked only on the news, but in reality Belarus continued to trade and purchase all necessary goods in and out. Today it's the safest country in Europe for foreigners to travel with lowest crime rate. No traveler notices any signs of aggression of government against population there and great sincere hospitality. check more videos on how people from different parts of world visiting Belarus instead of watching propaganda. Check out how many expats from Western Europe purchasing properties to retire in Belarus. Those are real factors, not propaganda.

We will find you all.
"Wasted" because the country doesn't dance to the EU/NATO tune? Seems to me that's true sovereignty.
KGB agent?
@@Ymma58 KGB?
I'm guessing you're an agent of the KGB or a Republican.
@@Ymma58cia agent☝️?
Joining EU/NATO is the only way to recover the country's language, culture, return a lot of people banished because they don't wanna be 'russian' nazists and be part of the moscovian empire. So it really means to regain sovereignty.
🇷🇺👎🏼 🇧🇾 😢
I like listening to these at night, but 95% of this vid isn't dubbed. Makes it worthless.
I hate how the word democracy is used synonymous with good
It is
@@sc1338 boofa
Better than a KGB murder-police state.
Gotta love this kind of blatant pro west propaganda.
How exactly is it propaganda? Lukashenko came to power and immediately raised Russian to the status of official language and made it the language of his government. Russian language and culture is promoted over Belarusian and a minority of Belarusian young people speak Belarusian over Russian because of him. Additionally, he replaced all of Belarus' traditional flags and national symbols with Communist ones of Russian origin.
He is a Russian puppet.
@@POCKET-SAND Хз, кто там из молодняка говорит на чистом беларуском.
А флаг бело-красный-белый читая каловая масса под закос на польский, что общего у Беларуси с Польшей хз...
@@thorlight697 More in common than they have with "Russians." Belarusian language shares 77% of its vocabulary with Polish. Only 60% with Russian.
So you have to do what daddy America says or your aren't a proper European country. Hmmm?
no, it has to listen to its own people and not a killer from a different country
This is BS where is the counter arguments only one sides crap
KGB agent??
Oh, you can easily find it on every TV channel in Belarus
The "authoritarian" Belarus never invaded, bombed or destabilize other countries. Otherwise, the so called democracies of civilized world...
"This report reviews the latest research to examine the causal pathways that have led to an estimated 3.6-3.7 million indirect deaths in post-9/11 war zones, including Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Syria, and Yemen. The total death toll in these war zones could be at least 4.5-4.6 million and counting, though the precise mortality figure remains unknown. Some people were killed in the fighting, but far more, especially children, have been killed by the reverberating effects of war, such as the spread of disease. "
-> "HOW DEATH OUTLIVES WAR: THE REVERBERATING IMPACT OF THE POST-9/11 WARS ON HUMAN HEALTH"
sovereignty ? what sort of sovereignty european countries have ? europe is destroying its economies and taking a risk to be destroyed in a big scale war just to obey american/british interests ... what a sovereignty innt !!??
Great point. And when they say Belarus is a puppet of Russia they forget that USA has more than 30 puppet countries in Europe in the form of NATO and EU
You are absolute correct. As a Swede I recognize my own country as a puppet state for the EU/USA. We no longer for sovereignty
The EU is a peace project, intended to avoid conflict which led to two major wars in a generation devastating most of Europe from Brest to Volgograd. To prevent conflict, cooperation by trade is the means. Poland, Lithuania and Slovakia understand this and have developed their economies to the benefit of their people as a result. The UK left the EU in 2020 and has not prospered. The US is far away from Belarus. Russia is next door.
Can you make same calculation with communist/dictatorship caused deaths compared to democratic countries victims. Lets see.
@@donkoiot the only country i know that could be communist are venezuela and north korea, and these 2 countries never invaded or bombed other countries killing thousands
*Belarus the west is waiting RIGHT NOW for your choice of freedom!*
if you've actually been to belarus you know how developed it is, and before devastating western sanctions in 2014 it was doing much better by gdp per capita metrics than multiple former eastern bloc countries like Bulgaria and Croatia. This despite being a landlocked country with zero natural resources.
That’s because a good leader is at the helm, Lukashenko
that's because no one in Belarus will ever be able to cover farms into parking lots and offices and because they have large parts of the land that cannot be traded to any currency and finally because vast majority of the nation outside of progressive Minsk support current leader for as long as he has beating heart. Erdogan is also at power for over 20 years and there are no human rights issues there at all. On contrary, Turkey was always a leader on population growth. For those who wants to get "richer" off Western economies especially around Minsk or Homel he isn't favor, but for those who wants to be not fully dependent on Western currency he is father and family so go figure, because reality isn't a movie and nooz on TV.
@@ondaride777 Back in 2020 regions showed even more support to opposition than the capital.
ahahaha that's bullshit.
@@BelarusLukashenko no, lukasheska is bad leader he just fascist freak what dont do NOTHING good for country, fucking NOTHING
Not truth inside
Belarus saved from us occupation should be the title
You probably don't know that belarus language is being eliminted and replaced by 'russian' as well as culture and pretty much agressively. 3 big cities of Belarus are occupied by so called 'russian federation': briansk, pskov, smolenks. No americans have done anything that bad to people of Belarus.
@@elliotjung1766 how do you know? fake, Belarussian is fine and well
You mean **saved from existing normally*
Yeah wasted sovereignty because they’re not American puppet 😂😂
Once you’re American puppet you automatically become sovereign and democratic
KGB agent??
@@Ymma58 nato bot 🤖??
Actually, Belarus doesn't have any power to compete with the nazist empire 'russian federation'. Being an 'american puppet' means returning be;arusian language, culture, religion (which are replaced for now) and have power to resist attempts of that empire to eliminate that country.
Sovereignty means American pet dog?
No it means being free and not poor. They’re pathetic compared to the west
Sovereignty: a self-governing state.
So, if Sovereignty means American pet dog then USA IS AMERICAN PET DOG?
Belarus will be far better off in the future with russia because russia has vast resourses of minerals and cheap energy while nato countries freeze and can produce
We hearded this from russia propaganda for all decades of lukashesku, dont need this shit more, russia is cursed, like their fascist corrupted system
Russia is selling itself to china while fighting meaningless war with Ukraine and common sense. Meanwhile NATO and USA are not perfect, but they can learn from their mistakes. I would rather live in "USA puppet state" than in "Russia puppet state" . By the way I am Belarussian.
Vast resources of minerals they can't afford to dig up, and fossil fuels to continue polluting the planet because they can't afford green energy either. Nice copium, I'll continue living in my cozy middle-class house with electric heaters powered by solar panels while the people of Belarus continue to suffer the economic wrath of the West.
🇷🇺 bot
More western propaganda
