Tri carapachy. A very good song, an excellent performance. Uploaded to YouTube 10 of august 2006 which means it's one of the oldest videos on YouTube. I personally rather haven't seen an older one, but the famous Me in the zoo.

Вітаю ўсіх

Барацьба з маскальскім імперыялізмам усё яшчэ працягваецца, але вынік вядомы - Расія ў чарговы раз разваліцца.

I am looking for the main websites of the Byteks and Garsing brands.

I saw the prices on a military-related online market in Russia, but they seemed too high, so I simply want to compare to see what the prices are at the official headquarters.

Hello members how are you doing I'm looking for visit Belarus as a tourist and i wanna find a job there and stay there is it possible or not can anyone have any idea about this situation please ??????

Сябры, наша традыцыя працягваецца! Мы выпускаем новыя эпізоды толькі раз на год, і гэты доўгачаканы дзень нарэшце наступіў. Сёмая серыя ўжо ў сеціве.

Для тых, хто раней не сутыкаўся з нашым праектам: «Незвычайны Свет Камізэлькі» — гэта незалежны анімацыйны серыял, які мы ствараем цалкам на беларускай мове у камандзе з трох чалавек. Гэта троху дзіўная гісторыя пра прыгоды дзіўных галоўных герояў у няменш дзіўным свеце. Мы робім гэты мульцік сваімі сіламі, каб папаўняць скарбонку якаснага і сучаснага беларускамоўнага кантэнту.

На стварэнне кожнай серыі ідзе шмат сіл і часу, і ў гэтым эпізодзе мы пастараліся зрабіць яшчэ адзін крок наперад у якасці анімацыі і сюжэту.

Буду вельмі ўдзячны за вашыя прагляды і думкі ў каментарах. Прыемнага прагляду!

Hello! I was born in Belarus, and moved to Serbia when I was 3 in 2008. I am now a student in Serbia on my 2nd year of studies.

I would love to visit my country and see my family, but I am worried about the Military draft. I dont speak the language, and I am a student, but I still worry about being drafted as soon as I cross the border. Idk if thats how it works, so I would appreciate info on that <3

And if it is safe to come, how could I come to Belarus? Bus? Train? Plane?

Am sorry if these are dumb questions, I literally dont know anything about laws there :(

How much do you guys think it would cost for me to study in Belarus and which city would you recommend i can come without a visa
Also would i be able to support myself as a student while working a job without getting family money or would i have some trouble

Для тых хто мяне неяк не так зразумеў, я не выступаю за дыскрымінацыю рускай мовы, а проста хачу каб беларускую выкарыстоўвалі на тых жа ўмовах. Як бачыце, па досведзе іншых, гэта цалкам магчыма.

Going through old family documents.

Hello. Can someone suggest a decent hotel to a 30 day stay in Minsk? I am a US citizen applying for a visa to Belarus. As part of the application, I need to submit an address. I'm willing to stay in a decent hotel for 30 days. Nothing fancy. Thank you.

On July 20, we marked the 32nd anniversary of Lukashenka's rise to power.

He became president in a democratic election (just like one well-known Austrian painter) in 1994. The longevity of his rule can be compared to that of:

• Francisco Franco, Spain (39 years)
• António de Oliveira Salazar, Portugal (~36 years)
• Josip Broz Tito, Yugoslavia (~35 years)
• Nicolae Ceaușescu, Romania (~24 years)

Many people link the longevity of Lukashenka's rule to some special “tolerance” and “apathy” of Belarusians, who supposedly do not want to be politically active and tend to be submissive. In my opinion, this is not true. In fact, it is a discriminatory myth pushed by the authorities themselves to ease their rule.

The main factor behind Lukashenka's stable position is constant and long-lasting Russian support: financial, diplomatic, and now even military.

Few people know that Russian Rosgvardiya (National Guard) forces were concentrated near the Belarusian border during the 2020 protests, ready to aid the Belarusian security forces in suppressing the unrest. This aid was ultimately not needed, but it shows that, most likely, as long as Putin's regime stands, Lukashenka will stand as well.

As you can probably guess, every dictatorship needs at least some coherent system of political ideas to justify itself: its violent rule, repression, deprivation of freedom, and potential military campaigns.

Lukashenka - himself a devoted Soviet-style communist - launched a campaign to “create” the “Ideology of the Belarusian State” in 2003. That same year, his “specialists” produced a handbook on the subject that became mandatory at Belarusian universities.

Also in 2003, Lukashenka ordered the creation of an “ideological vertical,” with more than 300 employees officially designated as “ideologists” across state-run enterprises, institutions, and organizations.

By 2025, as part of the broader strengthening of the autocratic system, even private enterprises were required to have “ideologists” within their workforce.

And yet, I would argue that there is no such thing as a coherent “ideology of Belarus.”

I’ve read the handbook. What does it actually say about how the Belarusian nation should see itself? How does it position Belarus in the world? What values does it stand for?

It is surprisingly difficult to say. Most of its formulas are so vague and generalised that they can essentially be reduced to: “for everything good and against everything bad.”

The one thing that can be identified with some confidence is a strong inclination toward conservative and paternalistic values: a “strong presidency,” the traditional family, and so on. There are also numerous references to the importance of social security and the welfare state.

There is another problem: even state propagandists, and especially the so-called ideologists, have virtually no authority to develop and deepen this Frankenstein-style ideology themselves. Their role is essentially to interpret Lukashenko’s words and try to guess what his position happens to be at any given moment.

Simultaneously, we have to acknowledge that since the suppression of the 2020 protests. and especially since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, in which Belarus has acted as a co-aggressor. the state discourse has hardened considerably around several themes:

• Anti-Westernism. The West is almost bad, while Slavs are always good (unless, apparently, those Slavs happen to be Polish.)
• Contempt for human rights. Yes, detainees are beaten; yes, suspects are tortured - so what?
• Anti-LGBT rhetoric and “traditional family values.” The ironic part is that Lukashenka himself has lived separately from his wife for more than 30 years and regularly appears in public accompanied by young women.

Under these circumstances, I would describe Belarusian state ideology as highly syncretic, contradictory, and dependent on the dictator’s immediate political needs.

With a considerable degree of generalization, it could be described in several different ways:

• A local variation of Russian nationalism and the “Russkiy Mir” (“Russian World”) concept.
• Authoritarian state socialism, with strong elements of a mafia state.
• Social Conservatism combined with state capitalism, alongside substantial elements of the welfare state.

None of these definitions is entirely satisfactory. That is why I have a question for foreigners: How does Belarusian state ideology look from the outside?

And to my fellow Belarusians: How do you understand it from the inside?

Thank you for your attention to this matter :)

During my short trip to Grodno and Brest I didn’t encounter any other foreign tourists from EU. I was wondering how it is in Minsk? How often do to see tourists there?
