Right now the funniest part is that Luka is supposed to have a meeting with Putin during the week to discuss WHEN rusdian troops will leave Belarus. Wow. Fucken batka fought for every russian advance to have maximum cost hosed up everything and will now fly to Russia to beg them to leave, ask when will they leave

alex314 posted:On a topic of local EE products: I've bought a table in a furniture shop, and found out that it was made in Belarus when it was delivered. Pretty surprising considering how much of furniture is made in Poland. Nice thing about it was the best manual I've ever seen in any furniture product I've ever assembled. The worst was a folding bed/sofa where I had to find a loving company catalogue to see how the end product should look like. Borisovdrev are good at their jobs. I think they made some stuff for ikea before the whole disaster. You want pine, oak bed, whatever? You got it. Our gdp is made not from natural rent like russia but from actual work and being good. Thats what makes me hate lukashenko the most, that he has no idea where money comes from and other belarusians who loving toil regardless

Hilarious part is that Lukashenko wasnt informed at all, in advance. He apparently got a call from Putin at 5 in the morning. Right now they are attacking Ukraine from BY territory and he is only calling security council meeting to decide something. Everything was decided without you, friendo.

Our woreign ministry is hilarious. Advised belarusian citizens to leave Ukraine, good job everyone. Good timing now that all flights are cancelled and there is fighting on belarusian border.

My GF's brother was able to reach Poland after a day (24 hrs) at the border. Ukraine border guards were furious when they saw a Belarusian passport, threatened to shoot them, threatened to send them to Belarusian border to get killed by their own. Ultimately had to bribe them to be allowed into Poland in peace. Also pretty loving chilling to hear his stories of driving through multiple blockposts on the way there with Belarusian license plates and having weapons aimed at them all the time. I can't really blame Ukranians for their anger, yet the dude barely escaped Lukashenko, now has to run again and is being sort of punished for Luka's actions while just trying to run away from him

punk rebel ecks posted:Thanks. Paladinus answered that one. Also, he is much more structured thinker than I so he is better off answering those honestly. quote:- I'm sure you've seen that graph that shows GDP of post Soviet nations over time with Ukraine at the bottom, Russia barely above 0%, but Poland, Romania, and Belarus flying high. Is this somewhat accurate? Like has Belarus's economy really grown and has that resulted in quality of life improvements? Not sure what graph you talk about but the fact alone that Lithuania that is about 1/4 of our size and 1/3 of our population is close to our gdp should tell a lot. Quality of life, sure there were definitely quality of life improvements. quote:. Yes, exactly except with much more mismanagement. quote:- Just how much of a puppet state is Belarus of Russia, and if it is a total puppet state why has the nation's economy been strong (looking from the outside) while Russia's has been a wetfart? Lukashenko used to be a sort of ally from hell that often argued with Putin, milked russia for money while pretending to be closer with the west. 2020 protests undermined his power to the point of full puppet I think. As for economy, is is subsidised by russia by cheap gas and crude oil that we refine and sell. quote:- What would you say the average Belarussian wants from their country? Just get those ghouls out of the way so we can try to build a decent nation in peace. So much good was wasted and so much potential lost.

Funny story from Belarus, there is no point here, just an obsetvation. A friend of mine is a rugby player, which is not officially supported team. They roll with their own saving and aid from european federation. So, once they received a notice from same federation being banned from tournaments for Belarus being co belligerent, they are not in any shape to participate anyway due to captain and other player of mens team and captain of womens team being in jail for protesting the war

Reveilled posted:Why is the dictator of Belarus sometimes named as Lukashenka and other times as Lukashenko? I've noticed some people will use both seemingly interchangeably, but I don't think I ever saw Lukashenka before the current conflict. I remember in the case of Gadaffi it was that his name was spelled with a Q in standard written arabic but pronounced with a G in libyan spoken arabic, which made it unclear how best to transliterate the name. Something similar here, or some other reason? Lukashenka is Belarusian phonetic rules, LukashenkO is Russian.

SpiritOfLenin posted:Not sure whether to be impressed or terrified. The ministry of transportation definitely seems so utterly bizarre, if impressive. Imo its a fairly clever use of landscape. Tbilisi has a problem with real estate due to being constricted by pretty steep mountains/hills. In this area you have to get used that entrance from one side of the building is from the 1st floor and like 4th from the other.

I am a bit weirded out by sudden flux of praise of Belarusians by Ukraine. Either we really done a good job by railway sabotage or trying to undo the damage of Zelensky speech back in march. It honestly felt kind of crappy how he adressed Belarusian citizens as traitors to UA-BY brotherhood while being the only non russian president in the neighbourhood who refused to meet Tikhanovskaya and only stopped trading with belarus regime like 1 week after the war started. Anyway Arestovich said that Kalinovsky batallion are some sort of gods on the battlefield and bloggers saying "while russians post comments complaining how impossible it is to fight the regime belarusians just do (burn relay boxes)"

Baltics is the hope for us all. Lithuania who I always felt as a distant cousin who is ashamed of us turned out a true brother in 2020, were the engine of entire EU response who wanted to "express concern" as usual. I just wanna kiss you all.

I don't believe that German government could be so far sighted that they could see in June 2021 that Nordic Stream II wouldn't be completed and in full action now. In any case, that is Scheisse. You seem to be a German, why is this happening?
